C[I RADY NOW TO PROIECT STOCK ACAINST STABLE FLY The Pest Is in Its Heyday in August and September-Proper Meas ures Now Will Keep It Under Con teol-A Successful Trap Describ ed. With the approach of that season of the year when thle stable fly is most nnnmerous and its injury to live stock most acute-August and September it behooves the farmer to prepare for meeting the enemy and protecting his stock as much as possible from its attacks. In tur lithe farmer will be protecting l1umself also, for aside from its annoyance to human beings the stable fly is suspected of playing an important part in the carrying of cer tain diseases of maini, iotably infantile paralysis. T'he natural time for taking meas ures against the slable fly is when it is in its inimatlre stages, and there is good reason to believe that by pro perly caring for substances in which it breeods the insect may be kept well under control. Unfortunatily, this is iot always done, and the fly has reach ed its adult stage and begun its work of injurv before its menecing ies enee is felt. It is then very diflicult to combilat and vaiardf against. Various mean:4 areo used both for protei cting the an imalIs and for ex termninating: the flies. Among those are triaps. To he etlective, however. the trap should be especially dlesigined for this partieuiar quarry, as it. is iml possile sui ce::fuilly to capttre adhult :-table flies by means of the traps or I inarily used( ft r the bous fly.

The fram, work of dhe trap should be made : that it will fit snugly into the bai window intended for its use, prefe ably one on the brightest side of tU barn and close to the stock kept wit1 in. The screen entanglements are arranged that flies either trying I leave the barn or enter its are caught At the bottog of the trap is a spa( about one-fourth of an inch wide ru ning entirely across the frame on boi sides. This crack admits the fli beneath a peaked roof or ridge screen wire having holes larg enough for flies to go through, punm] ed along its top at 2-inch interval The flies enter this space, ascet through the holes into the upper char her of the trap and are unable escape. !lhe sides of tne trap, als a re made of ordinary screen wire bet nward and upward in two horizont folds running across the window, or near the bottom and one near the top The ends of the screen are secure tacked and a series of small bolt punched along the inner edge of ent of the folds. The flies, in trying go in or out through the window, crav into the folds and enter the chambi through the holes. They are unab to escape, because on the inside ti folds form a pirojecting ridge thi makes it next to impossible for ti fly to retrace his steps.
