Bowel troubles, although happen

more prevalent during the hot sum

Summer Flu is one of the worst
troubles, but diarrhoea, dysentery,
colic, cramps and pains in the in
testines, or any looseness of the
bowels should have immediate at
tention.
The action of Dr. Fowler’s Extract

HOUSEHOLD FLY IS
DISEASE CARRIER
The common house fly is notorious
lor the part it plays in spreading
dangerous diseases, such as typhoid,
infantile diarrhoea, tuberculosis,
cholera, and dysentry. It is a menace
to health because it breeds in filth
and may pass directly to foodstuffs.
Particles of decdying organic mat
ter, bacteria,, or other living organ
isms cling to its rairy legs and body
and sticky feet and mouth parts. It
is computed that one fly may carry
as many as 1,000,000 germs, and
that female housefly may become a
great grandmother in 60 days, lay
ing around .2,700 eggs during a life
time of three months.
Houseflies are particularly dan
gerous during warm weather from
mid-summer to fall, when they are
most numerous. The most effective
way of controlling them consists in
eliminating or reducing their breed
ing places by properly treating or
disposing of manure and garbage.
In the cities, garage is an important
factor in fly production. Control
measures to be fully effective should
be organized on a community basis,
because one neglected garage dump
or manure heap may infest a whole
neighborhood. Collections of manure
should be removed from city stables
and disposed of at least twice week
ly.
In rural sections, where practic
able, the manure should be removed
daily and spread thinly on the fields
where the drying effect of sun and
wind will prevent breeding,
ternate method consists of
advantage of heat produced
mentation when manure is
in tightly packed piles,
produced by fermentation destroys
all fly egs, larvae and pupae, except
perhaps those close to the surface
of the top layer. rrhe application
with a watering can or sprayer of a
solution of borax consisting of one
pound of borax to six gallons of
water will destroy any fly stages in
the top layer of the packed manure.

OTTAWA—A national check-up

started the day following close of

Justice T. C.- Davis, deputy minister
of National War Services. During

Gratification of the manner the
huge task was carried out was ex

Those who reached the age of six

will have to register within thirty
days of their birthday.
According to Justice Davis some
constituencies have already reported
that the task was carried out en

Reports that, blank
