Blomdahl & Sundmark 805 Elm St. Ph. Winn. 1108 ORGANIZE TO WALLOP THE MOSQUITO FAMILY (Continued from page 1) where with streams approaching Chi- cago's in pollution, is to excavate, pre- ferably by the dynamite propagating method, evenly graded mid-channels in the - beds of streams of sufficient ca- pacity, plus 25 percent, to receive and retain the normal summer flow and to| drain any side pools remaining thereto. "Four and one-half miles of mid- channelling under the Gorgas plan was installed in the east branch of the North Chicago river by the Sanitary District last season and the work is again in progress and is to continue on up through the Skokie creek to the Cook county line, where Lake county is expected to continue the grade to Waukegan. The big Skokie swamp that breeds Aedes Sylvestris mosqui- toes so intensively in normal to wet seasons is to be surface drained by lat- eral ditches into the new mid-channel. This, followed by some local work, will cause an entire clean-up of north shore mosquitoes. "With the continued assistance of the Sanitary district, the County boards and some of the cities and towns, the work of elimination will proceed as outlined under the Gorgas plan as rapidly as it can be pushed. The districts forming in the metropolitan area and elsewhere, under the new state law will, we assume, offer whatever assistance they can, as soon as they are ready to act. They could perform the local work required, preferably under the Gorgas plan as outlined, so that it may be successful and uniform throughout. They could maintain the outlying work as fast as it is completed. "The Sanitary district of Cook coun- ty, the Cook county board and the Cook County Forest Preserve are on record as having every intention to | carry out fully that part of the Gorgas plan outlined for them. The Sanitary district reports that if they do not have | money enough in their appropriations, they will get more." 'Game Hunter Speaks to Journalistic Fraternity | Robert W. Tansill, big game hunter and a leader of the recent Alexander H.
