L BISHOP & COMPANY PLUMBING and PLUMBING SUPPLIES V “Xforafly- LESS BREVARD Editor Brvard News: I hear that the ladies of the Better ment Association are contemplating a campaign against the common fly. I believe this is a good move and one that will add to the health and comfort ox our town. I understand that the ladies are going to work in , a businesslike manner and have ap- I pointed a committee to gather infor mation from “flyless” communities on I the subject in order to find out the best means of combating this pest and driving it from our borders. As ' is well known the eggs of the fly are laid in the manure of the horse or cowstable or hog pen, and hatch out in a few days into a grub or maggot i which is much enjoyed by the domes- I tic fowl. They breed and multiply with marvellous rapidity, and as the warm weather advances become a ! nuisance- and annoyance to every body, and a menace to the health of both children and adults. Many a case of typhoid fever may be traced to the feet of the common fly. Now comes the question. What can we as a community do to materially lessen, if not altogether, exterminate this nuisance and disease breeder? First:—Let our city council strict ly enforce the town ordinance against keeping hogs within the city limits and unsanitary toilets. Second:—Enact a new ordinance requiring all stables and manure piles to be screened and made fly-tight. Third:—Starve the fly in the home, I the store, the hotel and resturant by screening all doors and windows and ■ by at once putting away all food after each meal and not leaving soiled dishes around for the flies to feed up on. j Fourth:—By helping any who can- ^ not afford to screen their homes with gifts of screens. Fifth:—By swatting the fiy and by trapping it with fly paper. Powdered borax sprinkled in the stable or ma nure pile will also kill larva or magf^ot. In putting up screens let us use the galvanized screen wire, it costs a little more but once put up is good for several years. Paintfed screen wire may be preserved by a coat of linseed oil even after it has started to rust. Don’t forget to paint the screen frames for they soon rot if left unpainted. j And while we are screening our J homes let us not overlook our schools and churches. Nothing is more an noying when trying to listen to a sermon than the festive fly which alights on your nose, investigates your ear and tries to crawl down your back. In your home you could swat him but you don’t like to disturb the service by doing so in church. And what is more annoying to our children in school than the pesky flies which crawl in their mouths after having first investigated the sore places on their bare feet. I want our summer visitors to say, when they go back home, “Do you know there's the fewest flies in Bre vard than any place I have ever vis ited.” No More Flies There’s no flies in our home; No siree! No ^iree! There’s no flies in our home And, “there’s no flies on me.” There’s no flies in our home And no flies on our food. We’ve swatted and trapped And screened them out good. No flies on oi}r baby: No flies in its milk. No germs typhoid fever, And all that sad ilk. No flies in our bedroom To tickle our nose When from “Baby all night” We fall off in a dose. No flies in our churches; No flies in our school. Children study in comfort, All the churches are full. So let’s keep on a swatting and keep up the screen Ti’ll flies in our country Shall ne’er more be seen. ERNEST H. NORWOOD. FRANKLIN OPEN FOR SEASON Mrs. Fred S.
