Thorough Cleaning is Desirable Just Now. e % It i- probably not wide of the a mark to gay that Savannah ip 1.1 one of the cleanest cities in the: j. ("nited States, says the Savannah ,t Morning News. There are abun-; u dant reason? why it should be n | clean and attractive. The streets are wide and practically every I o block is divided by a lanp. de-1 t signed for the purple of facilite ating cleanliness of premise*, d The system of sanitary inspec-, ,f|tion, too, lias done much to im-j I.' prove conditions. Nevertheless, e | there are some householders who e need to be continually spurred toj p . a realization of the sense of duty ( . they owe to keeping their back i y yards clean. 3 With the approach of the warm 0 season ;t is highly desirable that! v back yards should receive prompt j attention in the way of a through j cleaning. There is no telling from ! the front appearance of a house, or from the parlor and the living rooms, what the back yard ie like. In many instances a house whose front view is bright with llowera and cheerful with fresh, green grass, presents a back yard . that would be difficult of accurate j description. Its corners are litter- I ed with all sorts of rubbish, old barrels containing bottles, old shoes, tin cans, and all manner v 1 ' of refuse, stand along the fence ^ or in the jambs. The weeds grow ^ rank ; there may be a leaky swill j barrel dripping its sour contents on the ground ; the chicken coops may be foul, and the stable of n ^ the horse more or less a menace to the neighborhood. A dirty ^ back yard, especially one in I | which slop water is thrown from the kitchen window, means a pest of Hies, and possibly niosI quit^es also, if there is stagnant water left standing anywhere: ! and medical science has taught s, ..... us mat ines anil mosquitoes aiei 1 among the greatest distributors 8 of various sorts of fevers. The 1 block in which all back yards are kept clean and wholesome is f r : rarely plagued by either flies or i it mo-qtiitoes. The sanitary inspectors sh-u'd M j be particularly vigilant at this] Reason of the year in requiring cleanliness in back yards, butj d householders should not wait to be "jacked up," by the inspectors, e | For their own comfort, not to say ' 'safety from illness, thev ought to! take prompt steps of their own i I j initiative to put their premises) into first class sanitary condid tion. t j farm into a finished and final pro-1 r j duct, and so concentrates it that -jit is put into market at least cost h f-eight. While grain raising depletes) i'. ?he fertility of the farm, the dairy n | is a sure agency to build it lip, if s care and judgment is used in sav v ing and applying the manure ! back to the soil, v i The general purpose cow has b given way to the specific dairy s j cow and its solids that are in a - hundred pounds of milk that now give it value, instead ofquartsi that had an uncertain value, and, thus no one could account for the , i variations.
