WHAT A PAIR OF FLIES CAN
co FROM APRIL TO AUGUST

Flies breed with surprising rapidity
and will propagate In any filth, de.
caying vegetable and animal matter
or excrementous materials. Horse
manure is fayorite breeding material.
Herms gives the following on breed.
ing habits: ITO gain an estimate on
the number Of larvae developing in
an average pile of horse manure,
samples were taken after four days
exposure 10 the flies, and the follow.
ing results were obtained: In four
samples, a total OF Is pounds, there
were l0,2s2 larvae. All of the larvae
were quite or nearly full grown. This
gave an average OF 6s5 larvae per
pound-an average of over 100000 fly
larvae per ton. This particular man
ure pile was only one OF the many
known cases TO exist in various parts
OF the city No wonder flies fairly
swarm In the vicinity Of these choice
ornaments. Estimating that an adult
fly deposits from l20 to $50 eggs with
at least six lots at intervals OF from
three TO four days. Hodge gives us
the following astounding statement;
a pair OF flies beginning operations
In April may be progenitors, II all
were TO live. OF ls1. .01o. 200. .000, 900.
600. 600 flies In August. Allowing one.
eighth Of cubic inch 10 fly. this
number would cover the earth a feet
deep."
Under ordinary circumstances. II
can be safely said that. when flies
occur In abundance they have been
bred IN the immediate or closely as.
socIated vicinity. The house fly can
fly and under favorable conditions,
may be carried considerable distance
by the wind. This. however. Is some,

NOGALES WILL BE PAVED.

The subject of city paving will
again be taken up for discussion
at the next meeting of the No
gales Chamber Of Commerce
next week.
At the present time the ten.
tative plans have been accepted
with but the exception of the
clause calling for the pavement
Of Grand avenue in the vicinity
of the Nogales gas works and
the strengthening of the curve
at that place. This matter will
be taken up at the next meeting
and, it is reported, should the
plans fail approval on account
of this clause that paving of this
section will be deferred until a
later date in order that the en-
tire paving program will not be
held up.
The Tucson Chamber of Com
merce is co operating with. the
Nogales chamber in the manner
of submitting reports that they
have had of various experiments
made on paving in that city. By
using these reports large sum
of money will be saved the city
in the matter of conducting its
own experiments. Reports have
already been received and will
be presented to the city paving
commission at an early date
