the stall and carried out the bull. The

kerosene poured on stagnant water
would not only drown the mosquito
larvae but the female mosquito,
which alone bite. They also obtain
ed good results with millions and
other species of small fish by trans
planting them into stagnant fishless
pools and ponds. In other words

the future mosquitoes were concen-

mosphere. This is the way they
cleaned up Panama, Havana, Santos
and numerous other places.
However, during the past two or
three years considerable has been
written concerning bats as extermi-
majors Of mosquitoes. I have not
seen an artificial bat roost. But
have seen many natural bat roosts
in the caves of Cuba, Brazil and
Bolivia. The bats did not extermi-
nate the mosquitoes there, but as the
regions were more or less thickly
timbered, the bats would perhaps
have greater difficulty in catching
mosquitoes than at either San Anto-
MO or Pensacola. The bats also had
many other kinds of insects to eat.
But whether or not the bats have
eradicated the mosquitoes around
Mitchell Lake, Texas, cannot say in
the absence of personal or other data
concerning the sanitary, agricultural,
climatic and other possible changes
which may have reduced the num-
Der of mosquitoes in that district.
However, I am fortunate in having

Mitchell Lake bat roost and has kind

about It."
