Irary to the law and borongh ordln

Milford Won Game

burg (colored) Giants on the local
diamond last Saturday by a score oi
7 to 0. -Bill" Oarlow, who pitched
tor the locals, was in fine form allow
ing the visitors but one hit. The
batting of Middungh and a difficult
one band outoh by Mahoney were
ibe features.
. Auto Speed Traps
What sre called "speed traps" are
becoming numerous in tbs country,
and there is good reason for this ac
tion on tbe part of communities.
Where there is a long atraight piece
of road in the country It is less dan
gerous for an auto to rnn faster than
the prescribed limit, than to' do so
in towns or thickly settled sections
and where there are abort curves.
but a speed beyond twenty miles an
honr is dangerous on 'any traveled
road. Nor can those in a machine
enjoy tbe scenery or note the beau
ties of the country when going be
yond that speed. It simply tiecomes
a wild rush regardless of life snd
limb. It speed cannot be regulated
in any other way it will be a matter
for stats legisiatmes to pass laws
imposing a lioensc tax on maohinis
rated above twerty miles an hour
whioh will be practically prohibitive.
It Is difficult, in fact impossible, to
restrain the speed mad driver to 20
uiiles at all times and the only way
finally will be to make it ao expen
sive that his wallet will not stand
tbe strain. Generally with such
men their pockets are more auscopti
bie than their consciences.

Lumber For Ties
The steam and electric railroads ot

million chestnut. The average coat
for all kinds purchased was 50 cents
Sawed ties brought an average of
two cents more than hewn. 81 8 per
cent were hewed and 18 1 per cent
siwed. If we estimate 25 feet to
tie there woo d be the euormoua

NOTES FROM
SANDYSTON
Hie writer along with others took
la the base ball gams at Branohville
on Saturday between the Newlou
and Branchvllle cluba. There was
some very fine playing but Newton
went down to defeat by a score of 8
to I. Neither team had any horns
players with one exception on each
am.
' Miss Badie fiursh, of Nswark, is
pending her vacation with ber father
at Layton.
1 The Layton Harvest Horns on
Wednesday last brought out a goodly
attendance and everybody had a
irool time. Boarders from various
places roateriaily helped ia disposing
of the good things provided.
There are cases which a doctor
should let severely alone, and our
Grand Jujy may hear something
upon which they may feel compelled
to take some action.
In rebuilding the road fences many
build the new fence a little closer to
the road.
It is only a qnestion of time when
the roads will have to be widened,
and the new fence set further back.
The road from Layton to Branch
ville is now In very good shape with
the single exception of a big puddle
of water directly in Culvers Gap.
Vehicles are compelled to go through
it, and theSandyston officials should
attend to it.
Tbe Civil Service Examination to
be held at Hainesvllle on Sept 18th
for a Postmaster at Layton may not
have an applicant The P. O. De
partment demands that the Postmas
ter shall attend to the duties of the
office, and it is a good ruling.
The panoake crop promises lo be
the poorest In years, and some piece
are so short that it will be almost lm
possible to out. Pancakes will com
high this winter.

The House Fly Pest
A recent bulletin published by Dr.
Dixon gives some facts and statistics
regarding the disease breeding power
of house flies. The insect conveys
the causes of disease by carrying the
germs on its feet, balry legs or pro
bacis and month parts. It alights
on all manner of substances contain
ing the germs of disease and then
rests on the food of human beings
It is an active agent in the transmis
sion of typhoid or enterio fever and
one small fly may carry over six and
a half million haoteria. So too tbey
disseminate cholera for the worst
months for thst disease are those in
which flies ate moat abundant. They
also carry tubercnioc's and then in
feet food. They breed rapidly and
t is estimated that the progeny of a
single, female fly, in case tbey all
live, at the end of the twelfth gener
ation may be over fourteen quadril
lions. Screening Is recommended,
poison papers, wire trapa and fumi
gallon with insect powder.
Theri great breeding places are
in manure and this should not be al
lowed to accumulate. Some thing
to be remembered about them are :
1. Fliea can only breed in filth
and their presence Is evidence that
suoh material Is nearby.
2 They carry the cause of disease
on their hairy bodies and legs and
by means of their month parts.
r 8. Keep them away from the siok
partionlarly from those suffering
with communicable disease.
4. Do not allow them to settle on
the month, eyes, ears or nostrils of
sleepicg infanta.
S. Tbey sboold not be permitted
to oome in contact with food of any
kind or to settle on the milk bottles
of Infanta.
6. Open privy wells or cess pools
are particularly dangerons. Sani
tary closets should be osrd.
7. Pliysiciuns should sen that cx-
orela of all persons with iutostiiml
disease are cared for in accordance
with the regulations of the lioaltb
Department.
8. Manure shonld be collected
twice a week and spread on the fluids
or stored in fly-proof receptacles.

One of the many pleasant episodes
at the Marguerite this season was a
tin Bbower tendered Monday evening
to Miss A. F. Kllia, a bride elect,
wbo was taken completely by sur
prise. Eaoh present was accompan
ied by a suitable little poem rhym
ing with the name of the article. A
toast was tendered both Mr. Cook
lin, the prospective bride groom, and
Miss Ellis and the former generously
responded with refreshments. All
guests of the house pirtioipated fn
wishing tbe couple a happy future.
The first prize at a euchre consist
ing of six beautiful cake plates, don
ated by Mrs. McKibben, was won by
Miss W. M. Kehoe of Brooklyn.
Tuesday evening the guests en
joyed a progressive euchre wbich
was a grand sucoesa.
The Marguerite is yet having a
full complement of guests and the
capacity of the house has been taxed
as never before. About 160 applica
tions have been declined during the
season for want of room.
Forest Fires
The law relating to the fire warden
system in this state Ib wholly changed
by the act of 1909, which prevides
that the commissioner of forestry and
his deputy shall be chief and deputy
chief with entire control of tbe sys
tem. The chief snail appoint in each
borough and township a district fire
warden, who shall wear a badge aad
in case of forest fire shall take steps
to extinguish it and may empl y
assistants. The district warden s'lull
receive 25 cts. an hour and the a m
tanls 15 cents. The district ward en -
may appoint assistants, who shall re
ceive 20 cents an hour. All .reports
and accounts must be sent to the
oommiesioner ol forestry. The flrsj
wardens are not limited in )urisdio
li ,u to their own districts but may
enter adjoining districts. If fires are
extinguished by unauthorized persons .
they shall receive the same compen
sation. l i April and May and from Sept
Id to Nov. 15 fire wnrdeus niay in
the diccrction of the chief keep a,
daily patrol in regions subject to fires.
Wardens have the same power as
constables to arrest on view any .
person offontling ' forest laws. If a
warden fails or neglects to do hid
duly he is guilty of a misdemeanor,
and any one who refuses, without a
satisfactory excuse tu assist, is guilty
of a misleiiicjiior.'
