Flies are one of the greatest pests
that aff1ict mankind and the lower ami
mails. Long before the science Of bac-
te"iOlogy arose and the microbic theory
OF disease was originated flies We're
supposed to propagate the plague and
many other diseases, and modern
science has confirmed this theory. In
orGer to test it the putrid remains of
dead animals have been sprinkled
with fine white powder and subse-
quantly flies that lit on sick people and
on the dainty dishes of the table have
beer found to have this powder on
th?ir feet: OF course, when there is
an epidemic must convey the secre-
tioIs and excretions of the patients to
healthy people. Possibly this may even
be done by the flies lighting on food
which healthy people afterward eat
AS this evil is, so far as known, only
occasional, flies do just as much harm
in the aggregate by torturing the do
nestle animals as this goes on all the
time. The sufferings which horses and
cows undergo in this way is sometimes
sufficient to make them drip with
sweat. At the same time their useful
ness to man is greatly impaired. In
the summer time the horse could do
| twice as much work If he did not waste
his strength in kicking at the flies
Cows also would probably give more
mix Here is an enormous economic
waste which has attracted surprisingly
| little attention. If flies are to be eX-
| eliminated the most curious and most
significant thing is that they are a
product of human nature. When trav-
aleIs visit region uninhabitated by
man they find no flies there. If they
| live there short time there will be
as many flies there as anywhere else.
The right way Is, of course, to exter-
there not some way by which the horse
and COW may be protected against the
pest? Several lotions and powders have
been invented which repel the flies,
out they also injure the animal. What
| is needed is some application which
| W. llOI uuEl COdL anu yet
Will repel or mislead the flies. The
reason that nothing of this kind has
oeen discovered is probably that the
| impression prevails that such sub
stance must be poisonous to the flies,
whereas the truth seems to be that it
only needs to deceive them. Insects
seem to be guided to their food by the
sense Of smell. AS soon as anything
hey like is volatiliZed they swarm
% it from far and wide Evidently it
is the odor of the horse or the COW
liffused by animal heat that attracts
them and the way to drive them off
is to disguise that odor so that they
VII not be led Alright. No doubt this
is The way that fish oil and kerosene
repel them. All that is necessary is
some lotion which kills the odor of
the animal as effectively as these oils
without injuring their coat or infiam-
ing their skin. For ali anybody knows
this substance may be something which
is handled every day and is as cheap
as dirt.

Constitution TO Be Reftted.

Common sense in dealing with the
old frigate Constitution is in evidence
at last. The ship is preserved solely in
response to a popular sentiment, and
as relic alone is she worth the water
she displaces. The public will approve
the refittng of Old Ironsides with the
rigging and armament that she had in
the days of her glory.

While there can be no doubling the
intention of the British government to
henceforth dominate openly the po
litical control of Egypt as a part OF
the British Empire, the proposals OF
Lord Cromer clearly indicate that there
is to be equal opportunity for all ma.
and vested rights. In other words, mod.
ern Egypt is to be governed on the oper
door principle so strongly advocated by
the United States in China and the fal
East generally. While England will
rule. she does not propose to insist
upon any monopoly of trade Or fran.
chiSes. but, on the contrary, extends
equal opportunity to all corners.
