would have succumbed, but as it was

She beat him, over the eyes with her free
hand until he let go, and then again
caught him by the arm and actually held
him above water in spite of anything he
could do. The soldier continued to fight
and. as the young woman's position
changed and her right arm came within
reach. he bit her second time. This
time he drew blood also.
The struggle consumed not more than
three or four minutes. While it was in

My this time Miss Moran was more in

she was ready to swoon. Whalen and
Scott lifted her aboard first and then at

kOkAND, Turkestan, July5, 1910.
kokand is thriving city of $4,000 or
$4,000 population, the largest, wealthiest
and most important in the province OF
Ferghana. This is the most fertile sec
ton of Turkestan Also because OF the
water supply from the neighboring noun
tains on the Chinese border. 1t is an &C
tual example of the desert poisoning
as rose There is no more barren or
lifeless looking country on the face of
the globe, outside of the limits of the
oasis, but water will work miracles as
wonderful as any that puzzle the read
ers Of the Bible. And whoever refuses
to believe in mira cles in these modern
days Of skepticism let him come here and
see what the hand of the creator can
accomplish with the aid OF engineering
skill and money. But why come here?
You can see the same miracle performed
In the southern counties OF California,
around the sandy plateaus of Utah. or in
any Of the arid regions Of the United
states. Only the deserts seem wider and
more desolate here in Asia than they do
at home. Life seems so much lonelier,
because its ways are not our ways;
genuine happiness is SO far from the
great majority of the people, and the ex-
perience of the races who have inhabited
this section OF the world since the be-
ginning of time has been so full OF
cruelty, violence, death and disaster and
SO bare of comfort and enjoyment that
nature seems less benevolent and more
resentful than in our happy and hospi-
table land.
The desert here ends. however. AS you
go eastward the area of barren land
is limited and, indeed, there are more
swamps than sand hills between Kokand
and the Chinese border. The foliage is
splendid. 1t seems as if the trees grew
faster and were more luxuriant in leaves
and branches than anywhere else and we
can easily see from the car windows why
Ferghana has been called the most fertile
province in Turkestan.

FLY FAMILY GROWS
|'Musca Domestica" Doesn't
BeIive in Race Suicide.
INHABiTS ALL THE EARTH
No Known Part of the Globe Where
He Doesn't Exist.
RESEARCHES OF DIR. BEYER
Naval Medical Inspector Has Studied
Pest Which Humanity is
Asked to "Swat."
RESEARCHES OF DR.. BEYER

In an article prepared by DIR. Henry G..
States Navy, now stationed at Washing
ton, many facts are laid down in type
concerning the habits and life Of the
house fly, among which is a chapter de-
voted to the distribution of the little pest.
DIR. Boyer read this article not long ago
before the section in public health of the
Academy of Medicine, New York.
He said that in 1900 L. o. Howard, en-
tomologist of the Department of Agricul-
ture, made collection Of flies from din
ing rooms. When 1t comes to 'swatting
flies,' the entomologist seems to have
made record, for he collected 23,OS7
from sugar bowls. butter plates and
cream pitchers, and from other points in
dining rooms, and found that of this
number 22.SOS were the common 'musca
domestica," or house fly. The few re-
manning flies were scattered among other
species less commonly understood by the
householder.
Breed in Winter Months.
That flies are perfectly capable Of breed
ing in the winter months is shown by DR..
Boyer. who cites experiments by a
scientist. This scientist said that in a
house where an average temperature Of
seventy degrees was maintained flies had
no trouble in preventing the sort of race
suicide that would be fatal to their breed.
The article says:
1.-THE duration Of the various stages at
an average temperature of seventy de-
grees Fahrenheit he gives as follows: The
eggs hatch in twenty-four hours, the lar
val period occupies eleven days. the pupal
stage, on an average, ten days. Such
winter breeding may go on in many con-
cealed places and twelve flies surviving
winter may produce 10000 flies during
the following warm season.
DR.. Boyer explains that flies have cir
died the blobe because they breed in
whatever substance may be available:
This wonderful adaptability to all and
any kind of food material is the bottom
Of the wide geological distribution of the
creature"
