MANURE HEAPS AND HEAPS OF FLIES.
Sir, —I am glad to support Sir. Walsh iu iiis protest against tile nianuro .heap in Anderson Park. 1 live in Wesley : Bead, just nbqvb the park, and sitico'tho adVtiftt of the manmo heap liave beeii visited by more flics than befOro tho park was" formed. Tho modern idea is.. to taiVo a. enisado against flics, and ©no would imagine that tho City Coui.icii, in its <mdo.ftvour to have a clean city, wmild help lo .get rid ot tho fly nuisance, : instead of cojiesting niauuto in • heaps close to tiro houses , of cittzfens. _ If a citizen lias ft.heap of iuamite in his garden he is , soon, told by the- if'spector of nuisances to h.a'vo it dug in as soon as possible", but iho City Council in this, as in the matter of gorse, acts in a contrary manner. It calls upon citizens to remove gorso if any happens to be growing on their land, but allows, tlvo noxknts weed to grow o» its own property. I think the Health Department should take' up this matter and insist that tho City Council has its manure, heaps Away from dwelling houses.—l am,etc -' oakr.Fmßs. FobrUarj .16, ML
