j(Pr<;ared by the l*nlted States Department
of Agriculture. )
Probably the best poisoned bait for
jpuse flies, according to the United
|$ta:es Department of Agriculture, is
formaldehyde in milk used at the rate
Jof about three teaspoonfuls of
Jforaaldehyde to a pint of a mixture
(of equal parts of milk and water. This
placed in flat dishes in places fre
quented by flies. A piece of bread or
i gponce in the dish adds to the effec
tiveness Brown sugar or molasses
ud water with 21* per cent formalde
hyde (commercial, 40, per cent solu
tion* added will probably also give
?!isfactory results. As far as possi
ble (-ther liquids should be removed

The u?e of poisoned solutions, espe
cially arsenical solution In tubs con
tolcini: portions of animal carcasses,
has been tried and advocated against
the screw-worm by a number of Stock
ton. A comparatively weak poison
solution about one gallon of dip, as
for cattle, diluted to seven gallons
cf water? is sufficient. Best results
anally have been secured where a
tfflsiderable portion of the animal

not later be entered by other moths.
Clothing stored in good tight cedar
chests after thorough brushing and
sunning should be safe from moth
ravages, fpr the larger moth larvae
would have been brushed out and any
young ones or any hatched later from
undetected eggs would be killed before
they could -cause serious damage.
Cedar chests do not 'kill the moth-mil
ler, its eggs or pupae, but it has been
found that they do kill the moth
worms within a few days after they
hatch out.,
Wood Chest Effective.
When one does not possess a cedar
chest, a tightly constructed chest of
ordinary wood would be just as ef
fective, provided the clothing is as
thoroughly cleaned, brushed and
sunned and haS from one to two
pound's of , good-grade napthalene
packed with it. Woolen garments simi
larly cared for and prepared for stor
age may be protected by wrapping
them tightly in several thicknesses of
ordinary paper, with napthalene flakes
or balls distributed throughout the
package.
TAKE CARE OF PERISHABLES
During Warm Summer Months Keep
Vegetables and Fruits at
Cool Temperature.
Fresh vegetables and fruits should
be kept clean, well ventilated, and,
if possible, at a temperature between
60 degrees and 40 degrees F., advises
the United States Department of Agri
culture. * Decayed ones should be fre
quently sorted out. Very often the
decayed portion may be cut away and
the rest of the fruit or vegetable used
at once. Wilted leaf vegetables some
times may be freshened by soaking in
water Just before using. All vegetables
and fruits, especially those to be eat
en raw, should be thoroughly washed
In running water before they are used.
The loss of flavor and texture Is very
slight and is made up for by the re
moval of bacteria and possible spray
residue. Decaying fruits and vege
tables always attract flies.
Most cooked foods made with milk,
eggs, meats, or fish, are excellent
breeding places for harmful micro
organisms, including many which
cause poisoning. Chilled leftovers
should be used as soon as possible.
Leftovers of meat pie, dishes made
with cream sauce, soft custard, boiled
dressing, and dressing made with
cream must be carefully kept and han
dled and promptly used. They often
cause serious poisoning before they
taste M>r smell spoiled. Boiled rice,
honliny and other cereals also spoil
quickly.
TEA IS ALWAYS REFRESHING
Bring Freshly Drajwn Water to Boll
and Then Pour on Requisite
Amount of Leaves.
To make a pot of perl'ect tea, an ex
pert in the United States Department
of Agriculture directs one to bring
freshly drawn water to a boil ; pour
it ou the requisite amount of tea (one
even teaspoonful for each cup) in c
previously scalded pot, allow it to re
main covered for three minutes; then
decant or strain into another recep
tacle. The spent leaves should nfcver
be used again. ,
When one intends to serve Iced tec
on warm afternoons a supply of te?
brewed and strained earlier in the day
is advisable. When the tea Js cool
it styuld be placed next to the Ice to
chill, . Cracked Ice added Just as the
glass Is served will not dilute It ap
preciably. Sugar and a slice of lemon
may be used according to Individual
taste.

unbecoming shades should be avoided
