(R. w. Harned.)
During the late spring and early
summer of each year we receive many
inquiries for remedies against the
horn-hy. During very dry seasons
this pest does not become numerous,
but often after week or two of wet
weather they are quite serious. Few
people know how to control this pest
and still fewer know anything in re-
gard to it's life history The horn-fy,
like many of our serious pests, is an
introduced insect. 1t is not a native
of America and was unknown to this
country previous to 1887. 1t has long
been a cattle pest of Europe. In 1887
the flies were first noticed in and
around Philadelphia, Pa. By 1891,
they had reached Mississippi. They
have now been nineteen years in this
state and are probably to be found
wherever there are any cattle. There
are many exaggerated ideas in regard
to the injury caused by these insects.
They injure stock by irritating and
worrying them This causes a de-
crease in milk flow, falling off in weight
and general loss in vitality. Because
people see the flies in immense num-
bers on the horns of cattle it has been
thought that the horns are injured by
the maggots boring through and enter.
ing the head of the animals. This is
not true. for as long as the flies are
on the horns they are not injurine
the animals.
Life History-There are many false
ideas as to where the flies originate
This much has been found out by
numerous careful Investigators. The
eggs are laid in fresh COW dung. They
are deposited within a few minutes
after the dung is dropped. It takes
less than one day for the eggs tt
hatch, and in about two weeks from
the time the eggs are deposited tn,
adult flies begin to emerge. The
eggs hatch into tiny maggots. Thes'
maggots feed upon the manure unit
they are about one-half inch long ant
then go into the ground to pupate
that is to pass the quiescent stage
They remain about one week as mag
gots and about one week in tn,
ground as pupate. They then com,
out as full grown flies. ready to bottle

THE HORN FLY ONCATTIE

is worth pound of cure perhaps the
most satisfactory manner of destroying
the insects is to destroy the maggots
in the COW dung. The eggs are usually
laid during the hottest part of the day
and it is at this time that the cattle.
usually congregate in some shady part
of the pasture. A shovel full of lime
thrown on the fresh dung is said to
destroy the maggots. This is often
not practical but in small pastures, or
where cattle are kept in lots it does
not require much labor. Another even
cheaper method of reaching the same
result is to spread the manure out in
the hot sun at once so that it will dry
out This prevents the maggots from
maturing. These remedies are espe-
cially useful in the early part of the
summer for by their use, the number
of flies can be greatly reduced so that
in midsummer they will not be SO
numerous.
When the flies appear in large num-
bers, the best method of combating
them is to apply repellants externally
to the animals. A repellant is some
substance that is so distasteful to the
flies that they will not come near it
and at the same time it must not be
injurious to the stock. Many sub.
stances have been used but only two
of the most satisfactory ones will be
mentioned here. % A mixture OF
two parts of crude cotton-seed oil and
one part of pine tar. This should be
applied to the animals with a large
paint brush. 1t can be done best al
milking time, if dairy cattle are to be
treated. Fish oil may be used instead
of the cotton-seed OIL One APPLICATION
will last about five days. (2) Another
preparation that is applied in the sam,
manner as the tar and oil is made al
follows: One ounce of crude carboli,
acid, ga ounce of pennyroyal, l.
pound of sulphur, and one gallon o
crude cotton-seed oil.
