We have no vote ;but we are
vitally concerned about the Qat-
COMe of the proposed vote in Our
Town .Stapler is our home
town and. 'if we HAD a vote we
would declare our position with
an emphatic ND!"
.
This declaration headed a peti-
tion signed by nearly 900. rural
folk living near .Stayuer. The
Stayner Welfare League in an ad-,
vertisement featuring a picture
o this petition stated, "The good-
will of the rural people is of
much greater importance to the
business bf our town than Atry
snpposed benefit that might ac -
erne from the establishment of
a liquor outlet."
Eighty-five percent of Stapler
voters turned out on Toting day.
"Our town" stayed dry.

Fly Time.
In spite of the prelonged dry
weather the flies have multiplied
around the outbildings. The
blighters really are annoying and

menial preparations •on the mar-
ket 'in the form of ,sprays and
baits, Lindane base ssirrasys are
safe nontoxic fly killers. It has
no objectionable odor and is fast.
Instructions on most packages do
not reconimend as a. cattle spray
but it is not as toxic as other
forms of Benzene Hercachloride.
In spite of all this obey the dir-
ections on the Container. It is

A shot 6f methoxchlor or prye-

We prefer methoxchlor.for live -

and washing your hands are very
necessary precautions. •
Screens and cleanliness are
very effective methods of control,
We visited a harn the other day
which had screen windows and
doors as well as air conditioning.
It looked like quite a bit of
money but •the owner was con-
vinced he could not make a net -
ter investment. As well as no
flies, working conditions are much
better both in the dairy and hog
barn.
As recommended by the 0.A.O.,
breeding places must be elimin-
ated if effective fly control is to
be obtained. Manure piles should
be removed and any further ac-
cumulation of refuse and manure
should be removed twice weekly.
