Flies, Enns.

Eggs of flies are so small that you
must ause a microscope in order to see
their real peculiarities Each female
fly lays on the average of $50 eggs.
For her cradle she selects a heap of
garbage or refuse. The eggs hatch
into. minute maggots. In five days the
maggots turn into little chrysalids, or
puPae, shaped like miniature beans.
Within another five days these give
birth to flies, which develop with
amazing rapidity into adult insects,
and then the mischief begins.
