In this way the only light camefrom the opening into the flytrap at the top, and flies very soon afteremerging made their way up into the trap. The flies caught in thetraps were chloroformed and counted daily. At the end of each ex-periment the total numbers of flies from each cage were compared.The difference between the total numbers of flies from a cage oftreated manure and from the control cages is taken as an index ofthe effectiveness of the chemical. In any one set of experimentsthe manure used was all from the same source and, being in freshcondition, contained only eggs and larvae. It was mixed beforetransferring to the cages, but it is evident that under the condi-tions we could not be sure of an equal infestation in all cages. There-fore the chemicals were not regarded as having any larvicidal powerif the differences in the totals were small. OPEN-PILE EXPERIMENTS. In order to simulate natural
