Manila has a mean annual temperaure of a shade more than 80 degrees.

British yeomanry forces were first nstituted by Lord Chatham in 1761.

It is high time to begin the annual crusade against the housefly, declares Surgeon General Rupert Blue, of the public health service, the arch-enemy of winged germ spreaders. Dr. Blue said that, figured out in money, to say nothing of the loss in human " life, the cost to the United

States anually of supporting its fly population amounts to $157,800,000. He has estimated that the fly is responsible for and expenditure of $50,000,000 for the handling of tuberculosis cases, attributable to germs spread by the pests, while $70,000,000 represents the cost of typhoid fever cases, originating in the same manner. As a carrier of intestinal, fever and "summer complaint diseases" and a transporting agency of dysentery, the fly. Dr. Blue asserts, must be charge with an expenditure of $37,000,000. Many Lives Lost. The statistics prepared with great care and the grim realization that thousands of human lives are sacrificed annually because no method haa been devised for abolishing the fly, explains why the public health service and state and city health depart ments make active efforts to arouse citizens to the importance of keeping flies away from their food supplies and places of habitation. Records on file at the hygienic laboratory at Washington show that satisfactory results were obtained in nearly every city where anti-fly campaigns were conducted last year. In many instances, where fly swatting was begun early in the year, there was a great falling off of communicable diseases. Methods of fighting the fly that were followed in many Indiana cities last summer are indorsed in a bulletin recently issued by the state entomologist of Minnesota. The plan was established with a clean-up campaign. After that was done, the method consisted principally of bringing to the attention of citizens, by means of educational posters, letters and newspaper articles, suggestions for fly eradication that have been tried out with success by various cities. Spring Cleanup Urged. "In the early spring clean up all refuse heaps, filth of all kinds, manure piles, garbage heaps, old cans, trash of every sort and abolish so far as possible other places where flies may breed," says the report of the Minnesota entomologist that was indorsed today by the public health service. "Screens should be used freely on all doors and windows. The prompt disposal of garbage should be arranged for, and swill barrels and garbage cans should be tightly closed. Use some form of fly trap with the proper bait, and continuously; place it where it will do the most good. Arm yourself with a swater and whenever you see a fly kill it." Other precautions suggested by Dr.

Blue are the following: V "Do not build a stable near a. dwelling. Arrange for the prompt removal of stable manure from your vicinity; keep manure covered and in the dark until it is carted. away. Keep your premises clean, as free as possible from filth of all kinds, slob water, garbage, refuse heaps and so forth. If your neighbor allows such nuisances on his premises, complain of him to your board of health. Solution is Recommended. "A safe and effective solution is made by adding three teaspoonfuls of formalin to a pint of half milk and half water. This is particularly useful where flies do not have access to other sources of moisture. It should be ept out of the reach of children and might be placed in a fruit jar inverted in a shallow dish, and so arranged as to feed the liquid into the dish as fast as it is needed. Or it might be poured into an open dish and placed near the sink or wherever flies gather. Other sources of moisture should be kept away from them."

PATROLMAN FALLS OFF HALL STEPS

SUBMARINES CLAIM 3 BRITISH VESSELS

LONDON, March 19. Three British steamers have been torpedoed in British waters by German submarines in the last thirty-six hours. The latest victim is the Bluejacket, a vessel of 3515 tons. The Bluejacket was torpedoed today in the English channel about fifteen miles west by south of Beachy Head. The torpedo launched by the German submarine failed to sink the vessel but she was badly damaged. Eleven members of the crew were landed. Fifteen stayed on the vessel to whose assistance- other boats hurried. The Bluejacket was bound for London with a cargo of South American wheat. The other victims were the Glenartney, which was sunk yesterday morning, and the Hyndford, which was torpedoed at Eastbourne in the English channel last night..

WITHDRAWS CHARGE The charge that Ross White had stolen $16 from Orville Thompson while the latter was intoxicated, was withdrawn in city court today. The

The above photograph is one of the most remarkable ever taken. It shows Ray Harroun, winner of the 1911 i 600-mile race, coming down the stretch of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, at the rate of ninety miles an hour, ' with his hands above his head, completely off the steering wheel. Coming out of a turn, Harroun would simply head his car down the track, and then leave it to itself, confident its nicely balanced steering mechanism would hold it straight. He traveled for more than a half mile in this fashion. The picture was made during practice for th next Indianapolis 500-mile race, which has already begun, Harroun having taken permanent residence at the tracs with his complete string of seven Maxwell cars.
