DIMENTƐ& AGENCY-CO., LDINGZO Hongkong, 1st July, 1907;

Dr. Daty explained how the clearance of the mosquito had been effected by the drainage of swamps, "Our fight with the mosquito," he said, itis practically pioneer work of its kind A,

carried on under municipal control. In our laboratory hers we kept specimens of water.com- WINE, taining larvas taken from all sorts of receptacles about dwelling houses and from the salt water marshes, and conducted experiments for months with earth taken from the marshy soil. From these it became certain that for the extermina-| tion of the mosquito, whether the "salt water" kind of the "island" or“ freshwater" species, the best hope of success lay in the drainage of the stagnant water

·SURFRISING RESULTI.

Up to now we have deg 350 mllet of ditches in a system covering an area of 14 square miles of Staten Island. The result has been surpris ing. As the water left the boggy land dry, the propagation of the mosquito by the develop mant of the eggs when the warm weather of the following year returned and the swämps' were flooded was completely checked. The sea. side resorts which previously in summer had been unbearable on hot ayenings were last year freed from the plague of mosqulices, and the screening of windows and doors was found to be unnecessary in the houses of the populated districts of the island. This, year wa fiapa te show that by his means the, pest of the mos quito may be so wech dimini-hed as to be a factor of no account in the propagation of di sease and of comparatively linis annoyance, owing to the redaction of number

Incidentally, the drainago of the marsbos has brought about the reclamation of the land. Previously a waste, and regarded as of no valde, the ground is yielding crops of valuable hay, and factories employing hundreds of hands are being built on dry land, where the mosquito reigned supreme only two or three sammen
