The Inspector has been making a house to house Inspection and direct ing the occupants as to correction of unsanitary conditions where It was practical for him to do so. When not practical for him to give these instruc tions they were given from this office. We find the greatest trouble in tho un sanitary and unkept grease trap, espe cially in the unoccupied houses Jo they become filthy and produce great quan tities of mosquitoes. I think it would be wise for the city to put a supply of Kerosene In every trap of unoccupied houses.
