Ancient Mexican Industry Ruined
by Modern Improvements.
Since Days of Aztec Lords Small
Band of Natives Supplied Cana
ries and Other Pet Birds
With Delicacy.

Mexico City-When the government
of Mexico decided to drain Lake Tex
coco, just east of the city, in order to
lessen the danger of floods during the
rainy season and also to get at the
rich soda deposits in the bed Of the
lake it sounded the doom of one of
the queerest and most ancient indus
tries in the new world, that of catch
ing flies for market.
Since the days of the Aztec lords of
Mexico a small band of natives has
made a comfortable living out of the
business of supplying the canaries and
other pet birds and fine poultry Of the
United States and Mexico with the
delicacy of dry, sailed flies. Now the
lake is drying up, the flies have dis
appeared, the birds are to go hungry
and the fly catchers have abandoned
their pleasant vocation for the drudg-
cry of digging soda from the bottom
OF smelly lake.
Catching flies for market on the
shores of Lake Texcoco has been a
profitable industry since the days of
the Aztecs. Until recent years the
annual production of dried insects
was measured in tons and until this
year was sufficient to afford a means
of livelihood to a small colony of ma
tive fly catchers.
These market flies are a little
smaller than the ordinary house fly.
Preserved in the natural salts they
were found to be an excellent food
for Gagged birds and chickens and
hundreds of sacks were shipped an
nually to bird dealers in the United
States and Germany.
The insects are caught In nets as
they swarm near the lakes surface,
killed by drowning in the water and
Immediately spread out on sheets to
dry After this simple curing process
they are sacked up and are then ready
for market.
Some are used in this city and the
republic, but the excellent demand
which has grown up for them in other
countries within the last few years
has greatly increased the price and
lessened the local demand During
the year 1909 more than $4,000 worth
were shipped to Europe alone.
The profession of fly catching and
fly preserving has been handed down
from father to son in few families
