No section of the city has been spared, according to reports reaching this office. . The mosquitoes apparently have been blown into the city by a storm. They uVe of a small, black variety and seem able to get through ordinary screening. It has been established that these mosquitoes are not breeding within the city limits or. surrounding territory. City health officers have made a careful inspection of the city and have been unable to find any breeding places. It has also been determined that Sumter is not the only place suffering from mosquitoes. Complaints have beon made from cities in all sections of the state, from the Piedmont to the coast. The plague is general -and there seems to be nothing that can be done to eradicate the pests. It is believed that cool weather will see a substantial decrease in the swarms that have dock-, ed ipto the city.-?Monday's Sumter Item.
