Scientists Defense of Flies.

BY request we reprint an article be-
low, written by prominent Dubois
man and appearing In the North Anae,i-
can, not because we approve. but just
as sample Of the damphoolishness that
sometimes will crop out in an apparent
ly sane and intelligent man:
OF late much has been said about the
common househy, distributor Of disease
germs.
In your interesting editorial of June
4. under the csptionS "Poisoners In
Every Home" you qu ia Sterne as
calling tne fly "iitte hr ,sher' which
he really is From ear, childhood l
have been taught, aud believed that In
the economy Of nature all living things
we're created for wise purpose; and, In
particular, that the househy was a
natural scavenger, by feeding on filth,
and In desposlting its eggs in 1t as we'll
as on carcasses, which hatch into
maggots and which are thus deyoured,
thereby preventing the pollution Of the
air with pestilential emanation.
We're it not for the fly these
(earcasses) would rapidly decompose In
the hot summer sun, breeding sickness
and disease by polluting the atmosphere
with deadly poison, as above indicated.
Witness cholera in India, which
travels in the air, caused by decaying
filth and dead animals, FASTENED by the
tropical heat.
1t is admitted that the fly may and
does carry germs, but the danger in
that direction is probably not one
hundreth part Of the pollution OF the
air. which we must breathe without
the 'little brother" the fly, performing
its nature-allotted task.
This letter is not written to create q
controversy, but simply to show how
often scientific topics are treated in an
unscientific manner. Are there others
who can corroborate this view?
