Investigation has shown that the
apparently harmless fly is a far more
deadly enemy to the human race than
the poisonous insects and reptiles
whose reputation is worse but whose
field of operation is more limited. In
recognition of the results of its activi-
ties, Dr. Howard, the United States
entomologist, has named it "The
Typhoid Fly. It carries upon its
body from several hundred to several
million disease germs. It is responsible
not only for a large proportion of deaths
from typhoid fever, but to a large ex-
tent for the high rate of infant mortal-
ity during the fly season. It is estimat-
•ed that the devastations of the house fly
cost Canada about twenty-five millions
annually.
Sanitarily speaking, the fly is a child
of sin. It breeds and thrives in filth
and decay. In sewage it lives and
has its being. It would be bad enough
if the fly confined itself to the planes
where this dirt is found; but its peculiar
danger lies in the fact that it is more
likely than not to carry to your kitchen
or dining -room a sufficiently large
,amount of filth to infeot the meat or
milk or other food it finds here,
The fly is, however, by no means an
ineradicable evil. It is at least possible
to exclude the fly from our hotnes by
,means of screens and nettings, But the
.more radioel method is to put an
,end for good and all to the exposing
of garbage and filth where it can act
as a hotbed for these pests. In the
absence of a system for collecting gar.
bag° there is no reason why the
greater part of it cannot be burned or
,buried. Either plan gives the house-
holder inconvenience and trouble, but
,it is much better to have 10 resort to it
than to suffer from the fly pest and be
,in danger of the disease which it may
,spread.
As a contemporary sans, we have
advanced a long way from the good
old medieval days When, in the absence
of drainage or the simplest sanitary de-
vices, garbage and filth wore left expos-
ed is the open streets, and when the
unholy ooneeption of the sanctity of
dirt retarded improvement in this state
of affairs. Tho great plagues, suoh, for
example, as caused the death of twenty -
Ave million people in Europe in the
fourteenth century, have disappeared
With the advance in the soienoe of sant.
teflon, A still further advance, in the
form of a campaign against the nbignit-
one house ftp, would probably result in
the disappearance of the lase prevalent
but equally deadly dlAeasos of our own
flay.

Peculiar Weakness in Women.
Many women suffer untold torture
from nervous debility arising from dis-
orders of the feminine organs. Day by

modesty prevents them using a good
remedy like Ferrozone,--and it would
mere them. Lost nerve foroe is brought
back—new vital energy is supplied—ir.

The prospects for a large yield of
apples this fall Continue good, and a
busy time may be looked for during the
busy season. The winter varieties are
showing best—the spies, greenings,
russets and kings especially, and so far
the fruit appears eepeolally Olean, with
very few traces of, the codling moth.
Many of the trees are overloaded, and as
a consequence the fruit will be small,
for the trees cannot develop so large a
quantity of fruit into geed shipping
samples. Considerable spraying bas
been done this season, and the results
are noticeable, for there is a marked dif-
ference between an orchard that has

presented be a very oonoise form,
Winter Wheat. -Four varieties of
winter wheat were distributed to those
farmers who wiehed to test some ot the
leading varieties on their own farms.
The average yielde per acre of straw and
Of grain are as follows: Imperial Am-
ber, 1.4 tons, 24 1 bus ; Abnuclance, 1.3
tone, 23 9 bus.; Bulgarian, 1.2 tons, 21 9
bus., and Nigger, 1 4 tons, 21 9 bus
The Imperial Amber gave the greatest
yield per acre in the co-operative experi•
ments throughout Ontario in 1907, and
in 1908, as well as in 1909. It also name
arab in popularity with the experiment•
era in each of these years. The Imper•
int Amber will again be distributed
throughout Ontario this autumn as one
of the varieties for co-operative experi.
meats. We distributed the Dawson's
Golden Chaff for oo.operative experi•
meets throughout Ontario in each of
twelve years, but not within the last
three years. According to extensive iu.
quiries which we have made this year,
the Dawson's Golden Chaff is still the
most popular and the most extensively
grown variety of winter wheat in the
Provinoe.
Wiuter Rye.—The average yield of
grain per more of eaoh of three varieties
of winter rye, distributed in the autumn
of 1008, is as follows: Mammoth White,
28.1; Common, 22.1; and Washington,
19 6 In .the experiments throughout
Ontario, the Mammoth White surpassed
the Common rye by an average of 5
bushels per acre in 1907, 5 4 bushels per
acre in 1908, and 6 bnehels per acre In
1909.
Fertilizere with Winter Wheat.—In
the oo-operative experiments with dif-
ferent fertilizers applied to winter
wheat, the average yields of grain per
acre for five years are as follows:—
Mixed Fertilizer, 25 2 bus.; Nitrate of
Soda, 23 8 bas. ; Muriate of Potash, 22.9
bus. and Superphosphate, 22.7 bus: The
unfertilized land gave an average of 19.9
bus. per acre, The Superphosphate was
applied at the rate of 320 pounds and
the Mariate of Potash and the Nitrate
of Soda each 160 pounds Ler acre. The
Mixed Fertilizer consisted of one-third
of the quantity of each of the other
three fertilizers here mentioned. The
usual cost of the fertilizers as used in
this experiment is between four and five
dollars per acre.
Fodder Orops.—Iu each of nix years,
the seed of Hairy Vetches and of Win-
ter Rye hes been distributed throughout
Ontario for co-operative experiments in
testing these crops for fodder purposes.
In the average of six years' experiments,
the Hairy Vetches produced slightly
the largest yield of green fodder per
acre, but in 1909 the largest yield was
produced by the Winter Rye.
