THE FLY AS A GERM CARRIER

Cities and towns throughout
the country are now waging in
telligent, systematic warfare
against the mosquito and the fly,
the greatest agencies for dis
seminating disease germs known
to science. Lancaster's health
authorities will of course join in
the fight against the pests. Some
idea of the marvellous bacteria
carrying capacity of the fly may
be gathered from the following,
taken from the Charleston News
and Courier:
The New York Evening World
says that the Merchants Associa-
ton of that city have organized
against the fly which is known in
the books as muSca dOmeStica
One of these little beasts, it is
said. can lug around with him
something like 6,6O0,000 germs,
and without appearing to know
that he is loaded. A recent in
vestigation made at the Agricul-
tural Experiment Station at
Storrs, Connecticut, showed that
one blue bottle fly which was
submitted to the acid test was
proved to have $4,000 bacteria
hehind his right ear. The mos
quito does not belong, it is ex-
planned, to the fly class, that is
to say he does not carry around
with him quite so many bacteria
as the fly, but he is known to be
an expert in the way of picking
up yellow fever and typhoid fe-
yer germs and distributing them
where they do the most harm.
The Evening World contains this
statement of recent expert.
