HE'S DANGEROUS
responsibility for Disease Laid to
the House riy.

The nluScd d0meSticd, or common
house-hy, says Mary Human Abel
in her paper on "Flies and Food
in The Dellneator for July, is
known to convey cholera in the
East, and is under suspicion as to
other diseases.
Its origin and habits are such as
to put us on our guard. 1t lays
its eggs in excrement, preferrlng
horse manure, but if that does not
offer readily using any other. 1t
feeds on the same and on the spu-
tum of diseased throats and lungs,
on refuse of all kinds, and it bears
on its hairy feet and legs particles
of these substances.
Unlike the mosquito, the house-fy
is not bitter. but it has its own way
of carrying contagion. 1t depos-
its, wherever it goes, disease; and
disease germs may abound in it's
breeding and feeding places. On
the Joint of meat exposed for sale
by the butcher, on the bread and
sweetmeats of the confectioner'
counter, on the edge of the milk
pail, on the kitchen and dining
room tables, they have been found.
The epidemic of typhoid fever in
Chicago in 1902 fixed guilt on the
fly. 1t was especially severe in the
nineteenth ward, which furnished
one-seventh of the deaths, while
containing but one'thirty-oixth Of
the city's population. This local
ity did not differ from the rest of
the city in its water or its food
supply, but it did differ in having
more than fifty per cent of its
houses without sanitary plumbing,
the water being insufficient. Flies
caught in undrained closets, on the
fences, and in the room of a pa
tient, were proved to carry the
germ.
