Sanpete NTY NEPIII CITY, UTAH, VOL. 1. AD IS VOUR Paper by Mrs. Miner. D. O. People have long considered the fly as a harmless creature, or at most, simply a nuisance; but scientific researches have shown that it is a most dangerous creature from the stand point of dis ease, and now popular opinion is being rapidly educated to the same point, and the common house fly is becoming known as "the typhoid fly", "the manure fly" etc. Flies are very prolific. The female lays about one hundred and twenty eggs, which soon becomes maggots and afteranothor full transformation, become grown flies in about ten days. If nothing checked their development, the descendants of one pair of flies would be numbered by the millions before the season was half over. Flies are filthy insects, where-eve- r there is filth, there you will find flies. Where there is no filth there will be no flies. They seem to prefer to breed in stable nanure. But they also breed in excrement of all kinds, in gar bage and all sorts of wet and ilthy refuse. rrom experiments made at the Agricultural Experiment Station at Storrs, Conn., it was demonstrated that the number r bacteria on a single fly- - may range all the way from 550 to G. GOO, 000. It was also determined that early in the fly season the number of bacteria on flies are comparatively small but later in the season the flies carried on an average of over one and a quarter millions. It hardly seems possible for so small a bit of life to carry so large a number of organisms. While many of these organisms are perfectly harmless to the human family it has been demonstrated that positively them of were the germs many that cause disease.
