Comes The Fly.
It is the opinion of physicians
that the house fly is one of the
most dangerous distributors of
fever germs. It is generally
conceded that they are respon
sible for a great deal of our
typhoid fever—Granting that this
is only partly true, every pre
caution should be used to pro
tect against them. Not only are
they charged with spreading ty
phoid fever germs, but that of
tuburculosis andothercontagious
diseases
The house fly is a veay unde
airable pest, their chief breeding
place is among the filth. To
eradicate the breeding places of
the pest, screen doors and wind
ows, particularly dining rooms
and cook rooms offers the safest
.and surest remedy against the
dangers laid at the door of the
house fly. Screens are cheap in
comparison to the diseases
brought on by the filthy fly, and
the time is upon us to have this
done, as well as clean up the
premises and eradicate the
breeding places of the great
germ distributors.
