Animal Doctors.

There is more than one kind OF ami
NAL that. when in a state OF nature,
employs animals of another kind TO
protect II from disease and other ills.
For instance. crocodiles in the Nile
make friends with a little bird called
the Egyptian plover. which feeds on
the insects that infest their jaws. and
also on the pieces of food that cling
to their teeth. No crocodile will ever
harm this bird. for not only does It
save him from having bad teeth. but
It prevents him from being considera,
bly, irritated by the flies. An even
more curious animal partnership than
this is that which exists between the
hermit crab and a worm called a
'nereis." The hermit lives in the
empty shell Of some other shellish;
but as he Is a very untidy creature
and litters his house" with bits Of
food. he induces the nereis worm 10
come and live with him. In return
for shelter. the worm cleans up the
hermit's dwelling by eating ell the
refuse that is left about the she'll.

The fly lays its eggs on the

lay 40 to 30 eggs. This fly also
~infests the grasses growing in

which makes it much more
difficult to get rid of. Prof.
AinIee states that burning off
the fields will not exterminate
the fly as it now in the ground

precaution would be to rotate
