HOW TO DESTROY FLIES
Dr. Howard Tells What Breeds Flies and How Best to Destroy Them They Can Be Entirely
 Exterminated

In the last few years attention of the profession, and especially of sanitarians, has been attracted to the house fly as a propagator of disease. While humanity in general has been always more or less antagonistic to the insects because of their worrisomeness, they were only fought on that ac- count. Now we are being forci- bly acquainted with the facts of their pernicious character in spreading disease, and are being aroused to the great necessity Of destroying the flies. No longer can we patiently tolerate the little pests good naturedly. Toleration in this matter is a deadly error of omission. We must wage an ac- tive warfare upon them in the name of humanity.
 Dr. l.. O. Howard, chief of the United States Bureau of Ethnol- ygy, has written magnificent work on the house fly, wherein he describes the fly family, the dis eases it propogates, and various methods of destroying the larvae, the pupae and the adult flies. The true house fly is the Musca domes- tica, which is the most numerous of the species. It has been found breeding prolifically in horse ma nure, where the factors of mois- ture and heat are present. The female fly lays I2o eggs at time and may lay four such lots in its brief adult lifetime of two to four weeks Gin summer). The growth of generation of flies from the egg to the adult stage occupies from 10 to IA days.
 The eggs are laid by the Musca domestica in horse manure, as above noted; but in the absence of the preferable medium, the fly will deposit its spawn in al- most any fermenting organic mat ter, human excreta being its second preference. It is estimated by Dr. Howard that more than 90 per cent of the house flies are matched in horse manure. On the contrary, the so-called stable fly, Muscina stabulans, breeds in fer menting garbage or human ex- creta, and not in horse manure. The stable fly closely resembles the house fly, but is somewhat larger.
 The following from a table of Professor Forbes, given in the book by Dr. Howard, shows some of the breeding places ot house flies other than horse manure;

 number of flies prevented.
 Pure cultures of the following organisms have been made from flies; Bacillus pyocyaneus, sta phylococcus pyogenes aureus, ba- cillus typhi abdominilas, and bacil- lus coli communis. What they may carry there is no telling. The author quotes Esten and Mason as follows: "The average for 4I4 flies was about ,25o,ooo bacteria on each. :" Cobb calculated 86o,- 900 spores per track after a fly had visited a glass vessel contain ing sugar can fungus. The hy's excreta contain bacterial spores. Need we say more to show the awful potentialities forevil abound ing in the ubiquitous, multitudin- our and prolific fly? A large list of diseases is attributed to trans mission by these pests.
 Were we to get rid of the flies we might perhaps be spared the necessity and cost of screens for windows and doors. The use of sticky fly paper, lying on the flat or suspended like pole; of ar senic or cobalt arsenite (CoAs2) in sweetened water, or of forma- lin, part, to water, 1 parts, sweetened, are effective means of destruction, and should be used until flies are no longer found.
 Dr. Howard gives many meth- ods of destroying the larvae in manure, few of which we ap- pend:
 Kerosene, I pint, to 8 quarts of manure, destroyed the larvae.
 One pound of chloride of lime to quarts of manure, destroyed the larvae.
 Two pounds of iron sulphate, dissolved in a gallon of water, to IS pounds of manure, destroyed e4.I per cent.
 Thirteen pounds of borax in 4 gallons of water, to IS pounds of manure, destroyed over oo per ct.
 Eleven and one-balf ounces of borax and : ounces of sodium ar senate in I gallon of water to I2 pounds of manure, destroyed all.
 One pint of sulphur solu- ton in I gallon of water, to I2 pounds of manure, destroyed S6.4 per cent.
 One and one-half pounds of salt in I gallon of water, to T2 pounds of manure, destroyed 88.8 per cent.
 The author recommends outdoor traps on garbage cans to kill the adults and prevent their propogat- ing, and quotes Professor Hodge as follows; If, beginning next spring, every family will adopt effective measures to kill few hundred flies that succeed in, sur viving the winter, we could rele- gate our window screens to the scrap heap" It is now time for all hospitals to do away with their horse stables.
 From the foregoing narrative of facts there is but one conclusion deducible The flies must be de- stroyed as a safeguard to human lity. Can you contemplate with equanimity a manure.bred fly, di- rect from his incubator, carefully and consistently seeking your home and systematically endeavoring to deposit as much as possible of his filth on our dining table, wiping his feet in the sugar bowl, sousing in the soft butter, wallowing in the gravies and sauces, tasting the beefsteak, and swimming in the milk and cream? It is high time we rose in our might and unitedly assaulted the arch-enemy of man. kind.

MUST REPAIR STREET
Morris Street and speedweiI Avenue
Need Urgent Attention.

Michael p Norris, who represents
the fourth ward in the board of free
holders and is chairman of the road
committee of that body, has hopes of
securing the repaving of Morris street
and Speedwell avenue this spring.
Roth these thoroughfares are county
roads and it is up to the county to
properly pave them. There is move
ment on foot to have the streets in
Morristown which are under the con-
troll of the county turned over to the
town for care and maintenance but it
is certain they will not be accepted
until put in good condition.
This has been done in the case of
South street and Madison avenue
and also Market street and Mt, Kem-
BILE avenue but the two streets in the
worst condition of any in town are
Morris street and Speedwell avenue,
the latter in particular being danger
GUS to travel upon.
The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1911-01-31

While the trolley company has laid
its tracks on these thoroughfares the
company is not responsible for their
condition as they were in very poor
condition before the trolley company
began it's work
But before either of the two streets
can be repaved the trolley company
must complete its work of track lay
ing upon them. An extra track is to
be laid on Speedwell avenue and also
on Morris street from Spring street
to the Lackawanna railroad station.
The latter work was begun this
winter but had to stop because of the
ground being frozen.
The trolley company is also to con-
struct its road from the Lackawanna
railroad station down Morris street to
the junction of Morris avenue ond
Washington avenue. Whether this
work will even be started in the
spring is not known as the company
cannot cross the railroad with it's
tracks and there is nothing in sight
to warrant the assumption that the
work of track elevation will begin in
the spring. =.
Morristown spent about $4,000 last
year in cleaning the county roads
within the town limits.

Another Railroad Scheme.

A number of civil engineers have
been in the section around Verona
several days, surveying from the
mountain top to the Caldwell line for
a proposed railroad to connect with
Norristown, via Parsippany. The
I.ackawanna, it is said, is back of
the project. An old railroad enbank-
ment will be followed as near as pos
siDle, but in Montclair there is tax
of tunnel from the present terminal
to point west of the Orange Mount
aims. The Erie now has line
through Caldwell to Morristown, but
the Lackawanna wants shorter route
to Dover. which can be secured by
the road through Verona and other
towns. for its freight service.
