WILL SPRAY PONDS TO KEEP DOWN MOSQUITO PEST ‘We have with us again that summer pest and despoiler of many a summer night's peaceful rest, the malaria- bearing, germ-laden mosquito. This carrier of disease, who lives and thrives in the ponds and marshes about our town, is soon to become the object of an oil attack directed at him by Henry Davis, who will, during the next few d pray the ponds and marshes with mosquito-destroying oil. This work was scheduled to have ce last week, but owing to the sary oil could not be secured. How. ever, through the courtesy of the Iron- sides Board Corporation, 6 barrels of suitable oil has been secured by Health Officer E. .J. Brophy. The street de- partment will furnish the barrels and bring the oil to the city barn whence it will be taken by Mr. Davis to the various ponds. This spraying of ponds and marsh costs the city about $55 to $100 yearly and fyrnishes only temporary relief. Some few vears ago it was advised by the health officer that these ponds be drained and filled in. The work would | have been permanent and would have cost about $1,000 but the money was not forthcoming and now seems to be a forlorn hope. | PROMINENT MYSTIC MAN DIES AFTER LONG ILLNESS Stephen Billings Palmer, one of the best known ciitzens of Mystic, died Thursday night at his home, following a long ill- ness.
