The Common Housefly
is now the justly deserving object of a national campaign
in the interest of the public Health. Flies carry filth
and disease germs wherever they go. We are sincerely
glad that we are able to co-operate effectively in the
fight against the housefly. Flies and Electric Fans do
not agree. Flies cannot alight in a breeze and it is a
simple thing to keep your kitchen, your living room and
the sleeping room of your child free from the contamin
ation of these insects- One electric fan in a small house
hold can usually be made to serve all three purposes,
besides freshening and cooling the air. The new 8-inch
household fan is both practical and inexpensive. Phone
NORTHWESTERN CORPORATION. The real com
mercial spirit is to supply the needs of the public as per
fectly as possible, and we make a business of satisfying
our customers. Electricity is expensive only to people
who are wasteful. To you, who are naturally careful,
it doesn't come high. Use Tungsten lamps and have an
abundance of light.
