truthful reason, 'tis because

gem of its kind. Upon its walls are
depicted scenes representing each of
the seasons of the year and forming
the background- for the mounted

local habital of the birds is so clev-

If the American Federation of La-

amount will be realized.

' in the public letter the Loewe Com-

A SIMPLE TRAP FOR THE HOUSE-
FLY.

WASHl'NGTON, D 0., April 23 .——A
‘maggot trap which will practically pre-
,vent the brewing of the house fly is
described in a new bulletin of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture, No. 200,
"A Maggot Trap in Practical Use, An
Experiment in House- Fly control. " The
'investigators who carried on this ex-
periment at the Maryland Agricultural
College declare that during August and
1September at least 98 per cent of the
larvae breding in the manure were
destroyed, and although the trap was
not efficient when the weather became
colder, even then it greatly reduced
the number of flies.

The principle of the trap is simple,
it is easy to construct, and the ex-
pense is said to be probably less in
the long run than the investment
which many farmers 'now make in
screens for their dwellings, and sprays
and fly-nets for their live stock. In its
roughest outlines the traps consist of
a concrete basin with a latticed wood:
en platform erected upon it to hold the
manue. The basin is connected by a
drain ‘pipe with a small concrete cis-
tern. The bottom of the basin is filled
vl'ith water into which the maggots
breeding in the manure drop, as they
are about to- turn in the pups. or chry-
sails stage. and. are drowned. At fre«
quent intervals the water is run oi!
into the cistern and is then pumped
back on the manure pile. In this way
all the liquid manure «is saved. "

The successful operation of‘thls trap
rests upon several facts conneCted
with the habits of. the house- fly which
have been thoroughly established by
observation. The adult fly- lays its eggs
1111' fresh manure. There they remain
until the larva stage is almost over and
the insects are about to enter the pu
pa in chrysaliststage At this time a
pronounced tendency to migrate is evl-
dent. In consequence it the manure
is placed “upon a flat; plattorni
with a istticework bo'ttoni tits Isl-Vac.

below. ELn the case of the experiments
at the Maryland Agricultural College
a careful gosunt showed that between

larvae were killed in this way. This,
however, does not include the number
that were picked up from the basin‘
by sparrows or poultry. Altogether it'
is estimated that during the Warm
weather the emcienCy of the trap was
probably 99 per cent. Later, when the
temperature was lower, the trap's suc-
cess was not so marked. This was are
counted for by the fact that when the‘
