Mosquito Killer of Mexico.
From tho Venezuelan Herald.
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.
