, It Is said that thero aro counties In
South Eastern Pennsylvania in which
I fully 75 per cent, of the nativa

the central and western counties, tho
percentage dwindles to a very small
Hgure, and It is in that section
whero tho most successful work to

ing flies Inculcated throughout tho
entire community.
'Fly-essay contests were conducted
In tho schools of the three largest
cities in the State. Much interest
was aroused and a great deal of lit
erature was distributed previous to
the time of writing tho essays. I-
have reason to believe that these con
tests were Instrumental In reducing
the number of breeding places for
flies. This la-particularly true In tho
city of Topeka, where, from my own
personal knowledge, thero have
been less flies than I have ever
known before, ilt would befalr to
say, however, that probably the chief
reason for tho reduction of the num
ber of flies in the city of Topeka Is
duo to our splendid new incinerator
and our modern system for the col
lection of garbage, including manure
from the stables, and thus tho breed
ing places for Hies were removed and
destroyed. iHowever, this has been
a voluntary matter so far as tho col
lection of garbago was concerned;
but I am in hopes that in another sea
son tho city, by ordinance, will com
pel every householder to remove hlB
garbago and manure. It Is my be
lief that tho anti-fly agitation has
been Instrumental in -bringing about
a garbago collection system in a
number of cities of our State; for a3
that has been the chief argument for
tho establishment of such a system.
It should thus have the chief credit
Ono of tho most important lessons
learned from this season's anti-fly
campaign In Kansas is the value of
tho utilization of tho boys' organiza
tions of tho state. Tho i3oy Scout
movement was utilized very success
fully In a number of tho cities of tho
State, and not only wore the cities
given a thorough cleaning of all of
tho city's waste. Including bottles,
cans, accumulated debris, garbago,
manure piles and other trash, but fly
swatters wero manufactured and dis
tributed freo of cost; largo traps
built or purchased and installed
throughout the cities: antl-lly ordin
ances framed and their passage so-
cured and an organized effort mado
thereafter to see that they wero en
forced, which is tho most stimulating
and hopeful experience that I have
thus far had In tho antl-lly cam
paign. If this movement could be
extended to tho public schools of
our Stato what might wo not expect
in the matter of civic cleanliness?
Clonnini; tho Town What Boy
Scouts Did For n Kuiisus City.
From Olatho (Kan.) Register, May
25, 1911.
Olatho has always beon a clean
town, when compared with other
towns In Kansas, clean morally and
physically. But thoro la an old
adago "Nothing Is clean that can bo
made cleaner," and It was certainly
possible to mako Olatho cleaner at
least physically,
Tho Civic League, with Mrs. T. L.
Hoguo as president and Mrs. H. C.
Hammond ns chairman of tho coni
mltteo on sanitation, took charge of
tho movement for cleanliness. Mayor
Gorsuch aided by Issuing a procla
mation declaring Saturday, May 20,
a clean-up day, and tho Boy Scouts
did tho work. ,
On Friday Walter (Burr, tho leader
of tho Boy Scouts movement, epoko
to tho boys in tho schools of tho city,
telling thorn tho necessity of getting
of Mnyor Gaynor for the Democratic
presidential nominee was foreshadow
ed In an Interview with Nntionnl
C'linlrinnii Nortuun Ii Mack In thiH
city.
Mr. Mack stopped over on his way
to the Baltlnioro convention to confer
with local leaders of the party.
Tho nntionnl chnlrmnu nt first said
It was too early to speculate as to
who would Ins New York's candidate.
"However," ho added, "while I can

very strong In my home cltv of Buf

In tho rest of the state?" Mr. Mack

"I find Gaynor strong In every part
of tho state In fnct. I find him strong

shovels. The work began at 7:30
Saturday morning, the Scouts as
sembling at the public square where
they met the teams provided by the
city, and started for their various
sections.
The work was superintended by
Mr. Burr, loyally assisted by 'Rev.
W. A. Gardner and C. W. Ulaley.
Theso men moved about with the
boys, and showed their Interest in
the work by rolling up their sleeves
and wielding a shovel whenever op
portunlty offered.
By the mlddlo of tho afternoon
tho boys had completed the work of
raking into piles the empty cans and
filth all over town, and tho wagons
hauled out over thirty loads to tho
dumping ground north of town. Af
terward, all day Monday and Tues
day the city wagon' was kept busy
hauling out the piles that were left
unmoved on Saturday.
From morning till night the day
was a grand success, and a promi
nent citizen who had been at ono
time unfriendly to the Scout move
ment expressed tho general opinion
when ho said, "tho iboys to-day have
given a material demonstration of
tho worth of their organization."
But tho Scouts say that their work
has only begun that they will not
rest until garbago cans aro placed'
on tho streets with arrangements
for emptying thom regularly nor
until fly traps are placed bearing tho
legend "Will you step Into my par
lor?" nor until fly-swatters aro
placed In every house in town nor
until certain forgetful citizens aro
notified to clean up manuro and gar
bago piles which could not bo
reached from tho streets or alleys on
clean-up day. And they oven have
ambitions toward getting tho stato
legislature to enact a law sotting
asldo somo day about tho mlddlo of
May as a legal holiday for " Cleaning."
Police Prevent Demonstration at Din

New York, June 11. A demonstra
tion by the striking waiters, who gath

while the dinner to the ofllccrs of the
German fleet wns In progress, was put
down with ease by Lieutenant Becker
nnd n strong arm squad of sixteen.
The patrol automobile wns kept in

There were six general engagements
l)Ctweon the strong arm men and the
waiters, which resulted In the arrest
of strikers In groups rnnging from ten
to forty-two. Adding to these the
stragglers who were nrrested In twos
nnd threes throughout the evening the
total wns close to 100.
Because of the danger of eerlous em
barrassment to the city, If the strikers
should Interfere with the dinner to the
guests from the German fleet. Com
missioner of Police Waldo ordered a
strong gunrd to be maintained at the
Waldorf-Astoria. Forty uniformed po
lice nnd thirty plain clothes men under
Captain McElroy patrolled the hotel.
It looked ns If these precautions were
more than justified. The striking
waiters marched by hundreds past the
hotel.

uo iounu, in uestroytng tho diseased
trees. When Infected trees aro foil
ed and tho bark burnt and the ad
jacent timber is kept under closa
surveillance, according to Instruc
tions, tho remaining timber will
probably bo saved.
New York and New Jersey exper
iences indicate very forcibly that In
difference or delay will certainly oc
casion disastrous losses.
Tho field agents now traveling
through the various counties of tha
Commonwealtn In search of the
blight have been trained for the
special work, and It will bo mutually
advantageous for all persons inter
ested to co-operate in the task of
controlling the disease.
The spread and nature of tho dis
ease has been the live themo of for
estry experts since its appearance in
New York State in 1904, and Penn
sylvania friends of Forestry conser
vation aro determined to do all that
lies within their means to check Its
further advanco westward. The
Commission has largely augmented
Its field force and earnestly requests
the help and hearty co-operation
which tho important economic prob
lem so fully deserves.
It Is especially Important that tho
'District and Field Agents of tho
commission should be promptly In
formed as to all suspected cases
of blight. If there are any doubts,
whatever, regarding Its Identifica
tion or if the representatives of the
commission cannot be located with
out delay, the commission should be
addressed at 1112 Morris Building,
Philadelphia, In order that tho in
vestigation can be expedited, and the
proper remedial agency applied.
This Is the season when tho blight
will spread rapidly, If unchecked,
and there Is no class of persons who
do not have a vital Interest In for
estry protection; consequently an
awakening to the seriousness of the
dilemma is of the greatest value and
win result in much public good.
The commission has extended
grateful acknowledgments to the
press for the invaluable servico It has
rendered In calling tho attention of
the public to the chestnut blight, and
recognizes that it Is an almost In
dispensable factor In the campaign
against this new, but terribly de
structive fungous dlseaso that threat
ens to exterminate all of our beauti
ful and valuable chestnut trees. It
is a matter of serious Importance,
and tho public generally should
combine with tho state authorities
In combating the disease.
