Anti-Fly Crusade. 
‘Beware of the house-fly.’’ 
This caption heads a warning 
bulletin issued by the Bureau of 
Health, and Director E. R. Walters 
is seeking public co-operation in a 
war against the household pests. 
That the progeny of one fly during 
a summer season may run into sex- 
tillions is emphasized as warning of 
the alarming manner in which they 
expand the insect census. ‘‘Musea 
domestica’’ is the technical name for 
the common house-fly, which is said 
to number 98 per cent of the seven 
different species. 
“Don’t allow these pests to 
make an aeroplane course out of 
your dinner table,’’ is the important 
advice handed out by health authori- 
ties. ‘‘They generally descend for 
repairs in a sugar bowl, on a des- 
sert dish or become ‘summer board- 
ers’ in the eream pitcher.’’ | 
That flies caused the terrible ty- 
phoid fever scourge which decimated 
summer camps during the Spanish- 
American war is given as one ex- 
ample of their menace. It is con- 
tended that much of the sickness 
during the summer months is caused 
by them. Infants especially, ae- 
cording to the bulletins, are en- 
dangered by the house-fly. 
The number of disease germs car- 
ried by a single fly, it is said, ranges 
from 550 to 6,600,000. These figures 
are based on experiments in which’ 
414 flies were used at the Agricul- 
tural Experiment Station in Storrs, 
Conn. The average per fly is 1,250,- 
000 germs. 
Cleanliness is pointed out as the 
most effective means of discouraging 
flies. This rule should apply to yards 
as well as kitchens. Milk supply, es- 
pecially that used for infants, should 
be guarded carefully. 
District Nurse Receipts. 
The Manchester Woman’s club is 
meeting with success in its endeavor 
to have Manchester provided with a 
district nurse. The committee re- 
ports $125.10 as the receipts from 
the Pop Concert held last spring, 
and contributions of $488. The to- 
tal of $563.10, however, is insuffici- 
ent and other contributions must be 
forthcoming before the association 
can go ahead with its work. The 
summer colony has contributed sub- 
stantially toward the fund, and 
many others are doubtless intending 
to give their aid toward the move- 
ment. 
G.A.R.-W.R.C.-S. of V. Fair. 
The joint fair of Post 67, G. A. R., 
W. R. C. and S. of V. will be held in 
the Manchester Town hall, August 
29 to September 3, inclusive. 
This fair will be worthy of your 
co-operation and assistance, as all 
moneys derived therefrom will be 
expended in relief work, as from 
time to time may be expedient. 
Any article of merchandise or gift 
of money would be gratefully re- 
ceived by the committee. Post 67, 
G. A. R., represented by E. P. Stan- 
ley; W. R. C., represented by Rita T. 
Mitchell; S. of V., represented by L. 
W. Floyd. 
Special Town Meeting. 
At their meeting last night the 
Manchester Board of Selectmen de- 
cided to issue a call for a special 
Town Meeting to be held on Mon- 
day evening, August 15, at 8 o’clock. 
The principal business to come be- 
fore the meeting will be the report 
of the board on the matter of build- 
ing a seawall on the town property 
at West Manchester station. 
This question was brought before 
the spring meeting and the select- 
men were instructed to confer with 
the committee of property owners 
building the seawall along their 
property. They are now ready to 
report. 
BEWARE 
OF THE DANGEROUS 
House Fly 
Flies are disease carriers. 
They live and breed in all 
kinds of filth. They infect food 
and drink by their germ laden 
feet. 
One of the affective means of 
ridding the house of flies is in 
the use of 
“Fly-Go”
