At first the cry of "Swat the Fly" was treated as a joke; but the newspapers gradually educa ted the public to the realization of the danger to health when flies fresh from the privy and other disease breeding places were permitted to swim in the cream and crawl over the butter and other food. The way disease start and spread is so well known now that to let flies have access to food stuffs is nothing short of, of well something ugly. When the French undertook to build the Panama canal, the workmen "died like flies" in the district through which the canal was being dug. and the project had to be abandoned. To-day the canal zone is fully as health ful as here in Fulton county. Why? Well, it was because, first of all, the stagnant pools where mosquitos breed, the filth places whore flies lay their eggs, were thoroughly cleaned up only this : and nothing mors. Svat the fly. j If You Must Drir.k Cco:c. Kansas City Star. Mrs. James Watson, editor and publisher of the Dearborn, Mo., Democrat, has the following sug gestion to make to booze fighter "To the married man who cannot get along without his drinks, vi suggest the following as a moan. to freedom from the bondage of the habit. Start a saloon in your own house. Be the only custo mer. You will have no license to pay. Go to your wife and give her $2 to buy a gallon of whiskey and remember there are sixty-nine drinks in a gallon. Buy your drinks from no one ex cept your wife, and by the time the first gallon is gone, she will have $8 to put in the bunk and $2 to start business again. Should you live ten years and continue to buy booze from her and then die with snakes in your boots, she will havemoncy to bury you decentlyj educate your chil dren, buy a house and lot and marry a decent man and quit thinking about you." 1 Nursery Stock Thos.
