The Mexican Railway companv Ir en gaged In a new experiment which, it it Is nil that Is claimed for It, will bo ot In estimable valuo to tho residents ot this city. To fchow how earnest they aro In the matter they have located a new ot (Ice that ot mosquito commissioner aud tho portfolio was awarded to Captain Gcorgo C. Rjierry, superintendent ot ten. graphs for tho company. Experiments in different parts or the I'nlted States, and In New Jersey In par. tlcular, have demonstrated tho fact that tho extermination of tho mosquito con bo accomplished. An exchange, In discussing thc matter, said: "Selentlllo Investigation has disclosed the fact that a few grains of permanga nate of potash will destroy all the embryo mosquitoes In a very largo area of mos. qulto swamp. At 2 cents an aero all tho mosquitoes can be killed off for a space of thirty days, and as the breeding tlmo is but two months, 4 cents will assuro protectloa for tho entire year. This places it within tho possibility of a Hate, aud certainly a city, to until ely rid itself of a great nuisance." April and May aro tho two months In which mosquitoes breed. They aro pure 'y local In their habits and not migratory, as some suppose, und they seldom movo mora than a hundred feet from tho place of their birth. Hence, to c.xtormlmtto tho breed in a certain locality would rid 'hut locullty of tho pest for that hcuhoij at least, and thomethod of extermination 's so Inexpensive that an ontlro commun ity may bo rid of them at a very smull , expense.
