Clean Up
Probably it would not be out of
place to remind our citizens of the
necessity of giving their premises a
thorough cleaning at this tittle of the
year and thus be in keeping with the
good work now being performed by
the good housewives. Exeter is con-
sidered to be one of the healthiest lo-
calities in the West and in order to
hold this most enviable reputation we
must put forth a little effort from time
to time. One reason for this a cce p t1uble
state of affairs is due to the watchful-
ness of the Board of Health, through
their health officer, whose efforts are
promptly seconded by the citizens.
The weather will soon be favorable to
the development of deadly germs and
unless people are careful as to the
character of their wells and cisterns,
also out houses and premises, there is
'sure to be had results. N9w is a good
-Utile to burn rubbish which has been
collecting on your premises; don't wait
until decomposition has set in. In-
speetor Creech will he on his rounds
shortly and make a general inspection.
