The inspection tour was uuiiuuc-/

department.
It is estimated that tpere *are
more than 1300 open toilets in

600 holnes out

Garbage dumps in both Bryan
and College Station were visited
and found to abound with flies.
The survey made by thej Jaycees
produced the following !dan for
the entire summer: j
1. Garbage cans be ftprayed
every two weeks during the sum
mer.
2. Installation of a sanitary
fill at every garbage dump so
that garbage may be covered
with dirt each day.
3. Revise and enforce (present
privy construction to make them
fly-tight;
4. Form a systematic Uilte in
the two cities for the emptying
of all surface toilets at [regular
intervals.
5. Spray with DDT or some
other effective insecticide each
surface toilet on the [ outside
every two weeks and thie inside
once a month during the sum

6. Enforce treatment of live
stock, poultry and animal pens
by individual owners.
7. Drain all unnecessary ponds
