A REPORT FROM THE U.

V vv r* "Flies feed upon the most filthy substances (maybe the excreta of typhoid or dysentery patients or the dis charge from one suffering from tuberculosis). " When flies crawl over infected material they become loaded with germs; and subsequent visits to human foods result in contamination from their vomit-spots.
