MY two cows have ever so many pumps
on their backs, which are, ! judge, the
maggot of the cattle fly. What can l DO
that would be of benefit to the cows
Are the worms dangerous at all, and
what effect do they have on the cattle?
Young Farmer.
If you examine closely you will find
a little hole for each bump. With a sharp
penknife's small blade you can slit this
opening very little. Then pressing from
two sides you can push out the maggot.
1t is the maggot of the OK MARBLE fly,
the eggs of which were laid on the backs
of your cattle last spring.
While these MARBLES are not dangerous
to the life of cattle, still we have no
doubt 1T is very unpleasant TO them, and
in the case of milk cows the flow of milk
is reduced, especially if there are dozen
or more of the maggots present at any
one time. They reduce the value of the
hide.
You can kill the maggots by mixing
some lard and sulphur together and rub
ing it over the holes or whelks. 1t is the
duty of every one to destroy these per-
nicious insects when found, for it will
reduce their numbers. If allowed to In
crease in a neighborhood the i'll conse-
quences may be very great some day.

crowded. Fitzsimmons leaned on the rail-
ing In front of the judges desk, and
looked straight at the Judge. lie car
ricd a silk hat in his hand, and wore
Prince Albert coat. His manager, Martin
Julian. stood beside him, but he had no
counsel. The indictment was read. and
Fitzsimmons was asked If he wished to
plead. After a whispered conversation
with Julian, he pleaded mot guilty" The
Judge then held him in 81 900 bail, and as
no bondsman was ready, the Judge added:
Committed until bail is furnished
