The House Fly.

Professor Riley says: "The house-hy
is in itself not poisonous, but may en-
danger our lives by carrying disease germs
on its feet and hairy body. Moreover,
flies are capable of eating the ova of va
rious parasite worms, discharging them
unchanged in their feces. The distri-
button of the human parasite, tricocepha-
lus dispar, as DIR. Grassi has proved, is
aided by the agency Of the common house
fly. Even the eggs of the tape worm,
tenia solium, may be thus distributed" "
But do not condemn them too hastily
ON the above score, for they are excel
lent scavengers-"buzzards on small
scale" eating great quantities in their lar
val state, of decaying animal and vegeta-
bic matter, scattered thoughtlessly by
man where It may become the breeding
places Of disease germs. Prairie BaymAr.
