THE DEADLY TYPHOID FLY.

TAe fly question is serious. The
number of bacteria of a single fly
may range all the way from five
hundred up to millions, remarks a
good authosI i one female house
fly could survive the winter and on
April the IS lay one batch of 100
eggs, the number of flies born in
the succeeding generations would be
in five months over $500, OOO, Co.,
600 aud every one of those flies may
be a carrier of typhoid fever germs,
consumption germs, which produce
dysentery, diarrhoea and other in
fictitious diseases.
The common housefy is without
doubt the greatest pest of civilized
lands and one of the most prolific
Causes of disease. The fly is a
scavenger and feeds on the same
sort of mate rial that attracts germs.
The filthy spittum of the consump.
tive is a dainty morsel for flies and
attracts them in great numbers.
They swallow the bacteria and af-
forwards discharge them. A fly
speck. the fecal deposit of a fly,
may contain hundreds of these
deadly parasites.
We must fight the fly as we have
fought the mosquito, and must as
far as possible eliminate him from
the ha,nts of civilized man. To
accomplish it, it is only necessary
to suppress their breeding places
and to avoid leaving about materials
calculated to serve as fool for them.
Above all things, it is necessary
to take care that flies never come in
contact with the substances which
are to be taken in the form of foDd
or drink.

sion that the Southern farmer is re-
stricted by the character Of his soil

~ in the suggestion that Mississippi

years ago the grain ws.s successfully

can recall q time when numerous
planters cultivated it on q small
scale for home consumption. The
advent Of the boil weevil, with ito
imperious councils of crop divorsi-
fcation, resulted in . revival of the
wheat industry in q modest way here
and there over the State. Reports
sent out last year from a few coun.
ties were to the effect that the farm
ers had agreed to plant a sufficient
acreage to justify the provision Of
milling facilities. The red hot pol.
ltical campaign that followed served
to distract attention from other
matters, and no general survey Of
the extent or result of these promis.
ed wheat experiments has been
published.

I'VE do not believe it a wise

need for one. Such an expense
should be placed on the taxpay-

"And then there is another

opposition would almost as assur-
eddy take up their cudrels against
it, and the result would inevitab y
be the widening of the breach
that already exists. If the resolu-
ton is presented by the side which
might have a majority of the men,
bers, it would carry, perhaps, at
ter much wrangling and then be
submitted to the people for ratif-
cation. An election would then
be held at heavy expense to elect
the delegates to the convention

ter these have been settled, would
come the heaviest expense of all,
which would be the holding of the

the other expenses mentioned
above, and we have a sum aggre-
