Blasting Holes to Plant Trees.

"Few people elsewhere in tho world
may ever have heard of blasting holes
to plant shade or fruit trees said q
cultivator the other day, "yet the practice
is common here and shows good results.
In most places there is found sufficient
top soil for any purpose, but as land
has become valuable people have cast
about for means to utilize lands where
the coarse sand rock comes too near the
surface for successful tree planting.
A blast, well put in, creates a pocket
for broken rock mixed with top soil,
which furnishes basin to hold moisture
as well as deeper and cooler hold for
the roots. 1t is yet too early to say
what will be the ultimate results of such
planting, but in q climate like ours,
where superfuity of rainfall is not
likely to occur, it will no doubt be sue
cessful.-San Diego (Cal.) Union.

The Common House Fly.

The common house fly is one of the
most widely distributed insets, and yet
very little known of its life history.
Professor Packard, in his great work,
"Glide to the Study of Insects, says:
"No one has traced the transformations
of this fly in this country" Figuier, in
his magnificent illustrated work, s"The
Insect World" after briefly describing
the house fly, says: "Every one knows
how annoying it is toward the end Of
summer, and especially so in the south
OF France during the hot season." But
he gives no information in regard to its
habits, where it breeds and lives in the
larva or grub state. We have also con-
suited large number of chronological
works published in this country in re-
cent years without discovering any addi-
tional information in regard to the life
history of the house fly. 1t is supposed,
however, that the females deposit their
eggs in all kinds of decaying vegetable
and animal substances, where they
hatch, and the grubs feed until they are
transformed into reddish-brown pupa,
from which the perfect flies issue during
the warm weather in summer and au-
tump. Whether the eggs laid late in
the season pass the winter safely or after
becoming grubs remain half or wholly
dormant until spring is at present un7
known. But as house flies are found in
their perfect state in houses and other
buildings during the winter, it may be
that the entire summer broods are the
progeny of these few individual carried
over from one season to the next.-Nso
York Sun.
