to the World.
A local druggist has found a new
agent for the destruction of flies that
for activity and effectiveness discounts
ANYTHING heretofore offered for that
purpose. And not only is it harmless.
but it is a thing of beauty as well.
After selling annually thousands Of
sheets Of fly paper of the sticky and
poisoned varieties and a ton more OF
less Of insect powder. the new anti.
dOte for the pest bids fair to super.
sede all previous methods with him
and those of his friends who are in on
the secret.
For several days the druggist. who
is q lover Of flowers. has had upon
his front cases lunches Of sweet peas
of q variety grown originally in Cali.
fOrnia and but recently cultivated in
this section of the country. Each
morning after opening up the store he
has found collected around the base
Of the vessel containing the peas quite
an accumulation of dead flies.
For the first day or so he regarded
the mass OF defunct dipterOus insects
as an accidental gathering in the
neighbOrhoOd of the flowers. but curl
osi;y prompted him later to watch the
conduct of the few flies left in the
store. 1t was observed when the peas
were freshly picked that Immediately
after their being placed in the vases

1t is presumed that the OdOr Of the
