Some two weeks ago DR.. Hubbard,
Of Lyndon, performed an operation which
we think worthy of mention. A Mr.
Sanborn of that town had blce Fly get
in his ear and remain there about two
hours before it could be got out. In about
a day Mr.. S. began to realize disagreed.
bic itching sensation in his ear, and sue
ceeded in removing one or two maggots.
We don't suppose Mr.. SAnborn was scared
at all at the discovery, but do think he
will admit Of being little anxions about
it. DR., Hubbard was called and prepared
Il weak solution Of carbolic acid. Just
strong enough tc not injure the drum ofthe
ear. THIS solution was thrown in with an
car syringe 10 the drum. by this process
some three hundred maggots by count were
killed and removed. Two were not got
out until next day, and those were con.
slderably increased in size. Mr.. San
born is now all right, but does not care
hereafter to be batchiug nest for flies. We
have never heard Of a like operation, and
think it fact worthy to be known both
to the surgery and the public generally
DR.. Hubbard is a rising young doctor, and
excelsior is his motto.-t0 Farmer.
