THF. MEDITERRANEAN FLY |
The Albany Herald does not think
I that people who have their luggage |
' dug into by the uniformed inspec-j
:c,rs at the «tate line have any right
o c< mphin. fo. the reason that these;
i officers are representing the govern- -
merit in carrying on one of the great-
, fights it has ever made against
a pest. If the report* of the ento-j
mologists and scientist-. are to be :
relied upon, the Mediterranean fly
.la.- proven the most destructive of_
,.11 pests and ihe government is emi-:
i r ently right in trying to control it,
j ind stamp it out.
According to pictures that have,
; been exhibited and reports that have|
come from the infested section the
destruction to fruit by the Mediter
ranean fly has been simply appalling.;
If this insect were to get a foothold
in all of the Southern states it would
levy a tax of millions if not billions
upon the farmers, truck grower* and
The reports say that the fly has j
appeared in different countries f«*r |
about one hundred years, its first ap
pearance being in London, where it
\vn- carried from the Azores. Its d»-
pmlations in Spain were recorded,
nearly :» hundred years ago. It also 1
appeared in Southern Europe an l
Northern Africa and in eight years
it had cro sed the ocen to Western
Australia. The fly penetrated France
as far north as Paris and ruined the
apricot crop as well as other crops.
It then showed up in Brazil and
Arg- i.tina and in 111 10 found its way
tc Hawaii. Four years later it had
taken posses.-ion of every island of
the group and had put an end to the
development of the horticulture in
dustry.
The Mediterranean fruit fly is
about two-thirds the size of the com
mon house fly ar.d its general color is
yellowish or light blown. The wings
bear brownish hand- or spots with
two light colored narrow rings about
the body. The lemale fly punctures
fruit that is nearly ripe, desposits
several eggs under the skin and with
in a few days these eggs hatch into
the larvae which finally develops in
to the fly. The ravages of the fly
after they once get a start are much
more destructive than the boll weevil
has been to cotton.
So, if the guards on the border ap
pear to be "hard boiled” and obsti
nate, it is because they realize that
they are dealing with a desperate
cast* and that it is necessary to em
ploy de-perate remedies if such reme
dies are required. In any event, the
guards along the border are to be
commended for bding firm, even
though diplomatic and courteous in
dealing with the general public,
especially with that part of it that
cornea from infested sections across
the state line.
