flies were the only means of transmit ting the bacteria, experiments were made with infected material in the first compartment. but with no flies in the apparatus. The Petri dishes from these experiments also developed no colonies. The germs that grew into colonies in the i first experiments, therefore, came from the infected material in the first com pertinent and were .arried to the dishes by flies. From these results they drew the more general conclusion that flies are capable of carrying bacteria from one place to another if they have chance to come in contact with the material con- taining these organisms
 They next undertook to determine whether flies in nature actually do car " bacteria with them" ITO determine this, test tubes of sterile agar were melt ed and then cooled above that of the human body. At this temperature the agar still remains liquid, but Is not hot enough to kill bacteria. Flies were caught with sterile ferceps and washed in this. melted agar. The agar was the n poured out into sterile Petri dishes, where 1t solidified. It is reasona hIe to suppose that If bacteria were present on the flies some of them at least would be washed off by .his process into the agar, where they would multiply and form colonies"
 The dishes obtained from these experi- ments varied greatly, but all of them de- Veloped colonies. the number of colonies ranging from fifty to over two thousand Fhes in nature. therefore. probably all ways do carry bacteria with them.
 From the standpoint of public hygiene these conclusions are significant; for, admitting that files can carry harmless bacteria. there seems to be no reason why they cannot carry disease produc- ing bacteria as well. In fact. it has been a general belief among scientists for a number of years that they are active agents in the transmission of many dis eases. Recent studies by Dr. l.. O. How ard on the breeding habits of these in- sects furnish good evidence that they oc- casionally play an important role in the transmission of typhoid fever. It is prob- able that they can. and do, carry the germs of any disease which offers them an opportunity to come in contact with infected material.
 School Science for April contains an account of the investigation.

PROVED
 TO BE DANGEROUS.
Strong Indictment Against Insect Due to Investigations by Nor
 nal School Students.


 Chicago Tribune.
 The house fly appears as dangerous and vicious insect in the light of the investigations and experiments which have been made by Miss Eva May Shoe maker and Alvin Waggoner. two stu cents of the Eastern Illinois State Nor nal School, working under the direction of w. H. Manwaring of Johns Hopkins University.
 Their experiments seem to prove the charge against the fly that 1t is carrier of disease. They have shown how the fy. captured about houses and in the open air carries bacteria and how it can spread disease.
 Their endeavor was to determine the part the fly plays in the transmission of bacteria. ,,
 To do this they constructed a piece of apparatus consisting of a box divided in-. to two compartments. In the first com parement they exposed food material in- fected with an easily recognizable species of bactoria-harmless bacteria, of course, being used-and in the second compart- ment they placed an open Petri dish con- taining sterile nutriment-agar. a culture medium for bacteria. Flies were placed in the first compartment, and as soon IS a number of them had been seen to walk upon or eat of the infected material they were allowed to pass through a small door into the second compartment, where they had a chance to come into contact with the agar in the Petri dish. Bacteria, deposited on the urface of the agar, multiply there and form characteristic colonies.
 Tn the preliminary experiment. per formed July 16 yellow bacteria was used. Molasses mixed with a growth of this bacterum was spread on d plate in the first compartment and a dozen flies put into the apparatus. Half an hour later the door between the two compart- ments was opened and the flies allowed to pass through. As soon as six of them had been seen to come in contact with the agar in the Petri dish the dish was covered and put away to develop. A few days later there had grown on the agar over hundred colonies of yellow bacteria.
 They repeated this experiment with red and with violet bacterie and obtained characteristic red and violet colonies
 To prove that the germs from which these colonies grew came from the in- fected material in the first compartment and not from accidental sources control experiments were made with other groups of flies. but with no infected material in the first compartment Tn no case however did the Petri dishes used in these control experiments develop yellow red, or violet colonies.
