mologists claim that the eggs are taken
into the stomach by the animals lick
ing themselves, hatch there, adhering
to the walls, then the grubs gradually
work their way toward the surface,
where they remain until fully grown.
Others hold that the eggs hatch where
they are laid and the young larvae
bury themselves at once under the
skin. Whatever method is employed
the results are the same.
The best way to get rid of the pest Is
to kill the maggot. This may be done
by squeezing them out. Place the
thumbs near the base of the swelling
and press firmly until the grub is fore

Varieties of Corn.

Every year new varieties Of seed corn
are offered which are claimed will give
extraordinary yields. Farmers should
hesitate before investing in new seed
corn, except with small quantity for
experimental purposes. Corn produces
only when the climatic conditions are
favorable, and varieties that flourish
south Of this section may fail when
brought North. Frequently, when the
frost has appeared late in spring, and
delayed planting, an early maturing va
riety may be required, as an early frost
in the fall Of the year may destroy a
variety that requires plenty of time for
maturing it's seed. Do not abandon the
old and tried varieties until experiment
demonstrates that newer kinds are
much better.

The Ok Marble Fly.

The MARBLE or swelling on the back
Of cattle is caused by the larva OF a
fly which attaches it's eggs to the hair
on the legs, TANKS and neck OF the ami
NAL. These hatch and the larvae estab-
lish themselves under the skin, usually
on either side of the backbone. Here
they feed upon the animal juices until
ready to pupate, causing the swelling
or MARBLE. When growth is completed
the grub leaves the MARBLE, drops to
the ground, crawls under the most con-
venient shelter. such as piece of
board, log, ETC., and there transforms
into the fly or adult stage. There is a
difference Of opinion as to how the
grub gets under the skin. Some ento-
