Indeed, under favorable conditions,
masgots may issue from them In eight
hours. These maggots grow rapidly,
moulting for the first time within a
day after they r Matched. A day
later they moult a second time, and
two or three days afterward enter
the stage Of pupation. Thus the to-
tai length Of their life as larvm ranges
from four to five days: but this period
may be greatly prolonged by low tenn
perature or by scarcity Of food. The
pupal or resting stage lasts from
three to ter days. although during
Information II may be prolonged to
as long as from four to Ave months.
Altogether, 1t appears that between
the time the eggs are laid and the time
tina. the adult fly energies a period
OF from eight days upward elapses.
Ten n twelve day records were very
common in the experiments made to
determine this point. Within three or
four days after the emergence Of the
Insect as an adult fly the kmale is
ready to deposit her eggs. Thus 1t
is possible to have a new generation
Of flies every eleven to fourteen days,
and In such a climate as Washing

from ten TO twelve generations every

SWEET PEAS AS A COVER CROP.

Prof. Fabian Garcia OF the New
Mexico Experiment Station reports re-
suits with different orchard v
crops show that sweet peas are very
promising. The sweet pea 10 one Of
the hardest and most cold resistant
Of all the different kinds Of peas.
In New Mexico the peas are sown
the last OF September or the first Of
October. In the East. In the latitude
Of New York, autumn planting would
likely aus a partial or total loss Of
the crop, unless the peas were planted
very deep. six or eight inches.
Prof. Garcia had peas ready TO turn
under by the first Of May. The vines
during normal seasons are in full
bloom by May IS. Some were not
turned under until the last OF May.
The results indicate that this Is one
OF the hardest and easiest to grow Of
the pea family. The high cost Of the
seed may keep It from being extern
sively planted. otherwise the sweet pea
makes as good a green manure crop
a. any Of the other varieties Of peas.

COVERING TREE WOUNDS.

II Is considered good practice
to cover the wounds Of trees made In
pruning. They should be covered with
paint. preferably white or colored lead
and linseei oil, and this is the practice
in practically all large nurseries where
the trees are In perfect condition.
Nursery trees. however, do not attain
a very great age as they are sold and
replanted before they are fully grown.
The object Of painting the wounds as
soon as a tree has been pruned is TO
check the possibility of loss Of sal
which might flow from the wound and
make 1t more dificult for insects to
get under the bark or deposit their
eggs or to leave an inviting spot for
funsous growth to start.
-Four years ago G. II. Howe Of the
New York Experiment Station at
Geneva began a series Of experiments.

Mr.. Howe says that peach trees

THE FLY A CARRIER OF DIS.
EASE GERMS.

While the S Of maggot traps and
the treatment OF manure and gar
bage with hellebore or borax are most
effective In reducing the number Of
flies. It is not likely that they will act
ually exterminate tho pests In any
neighborhoOd. The precaution OF
screening windows and doors and In
particular tho protecting Of all arti-
cles OF food with nyproof screens is.
therefore. urgently recommended.
Screening. OF course. has no effect
upon tho number Of flies. but it does
minimize the danger OF infection. Com
p~aratively few people realize how ad-
mirably adapted from its structure and
habits ne fly Is to carry disease. The
body Of the house fly and especially
the legs are thickly covered with hairs
and bristles. As the fly crawls about
over the decaying organic matter on
which It likes to feed these hairs read
lily pick up disease germs and carry
them to the human foods which the fly
subsequently visits. The fly Is contin-
ually passing from piles OF refuse and
Nth to kitchens and dining rooms, and
In a n OF these journeys It can
with the greatest ease bring with It
the germs OF any intestinal disease.
Typhoid. Asiatic cholera, dysentery
and infantile diarrh9a are among the
diseases which are known to be trans
mitted in this way. and there Is very
strong evidence that tuberculosis, an
thrax. ophthalmia, smallpox and other
diseases are carried through the same
medium. 1t has also been demonstrated
that not only are disease germs carried
In this mechanical way upon the legs
and body of the fly but that these
germs flourish abundantly within the
fly itself and that they can be depos-
tied by the fly upon human beings ov
upon human food.
Rspiatty OF Reproduction.
The danger from the fly Is greatly
increased by tho extraordinary
rapidity with which the insect null
tiplies. The common house ny in
cludes perhaps 90 or 80 per cent. of
all the flies ordinarily found in and
around dwellings. A single female
lays eggs at least two. and possibly
four, times In the course Of its life
and averages probably 100 egg on
each occasion. These eggs usually
hatch In less than twenty-four hours.
