N FOR FLY PREVENTION. Killing Fers and Maggots fn Manure Is Most Efficient Way. Clentson College, March 1. ? A pint if prevention in the form of i?>wder ??d borax is better than a hundred ly-swatters when the aim Is to re lieve the u..rld of as large a number ?f house tl ies as possible* -Experiments' made by the federal bureau of ento mology established the value of pow dered borax In fly prevention, and Clemson College advises the p<s>ple of this state to use It. Horse and cow manures are the principal brooding places of flies and the fight on the housefly should be gln there. To every eight bushels of manure apply a heaping pint meas ure of two heaping teacups of ordinary commercial powdered borax. Spread the borax especially about the outer edges of the pile, using a flour sifter or any fine sieve. Sprinkle two or three gallons of water over the ma nure when It has been treated. This borax treatment should be given V to fresh manure, Immediately after lis removal from the Htahle.
