Killing Contest Frowned Upon t, by Civic Association - Committee. 1 Baltimore, Md., Dec. U. The Amer ican Civic association convention , here heard a report from its fly fighting com mltte.-ChaIrman-Edward - Hatch Jr. expressed the hope that there may be no more fly killing contests.5 This sentiment took the assembled fly fighters by surprise, which was dissi. pated, however, when Mr, Hatch said: "We cannot insist too much or too often upon cleanliness as the begin ning, rniddleand end of the fly fight ing campaign. 'Swat the fly!' 'Swat the f ly !V as a slogan must give f way to starve the fly!" The latter, ia more e"r phonlous and Infinitely more practical." Mr. Hatch said the committee was able to report the most successful year's work since the inauguration of the pop ular movement looking to the extermin ation of the house fly in 1908. In its concluding phrases the commit tee's report made a feature of the fact that in cities inwhtcb. substantial cash prizes were awarded, la no case did the number of flies killed in the whole of a campaign exceed the quantity which could easily have been reared from an averaged sized pile of - stable refuse in the course of a few weeks. ' . While the educational value of such fly killing campaigns cannot be over estimated, the report said It would seem that greater results might be obtained by conducting campaigns against dirty stables and backyards, garbage neaps and dumps, and all places that produnce flies and supply them with infection.
