§ Mr. C. BATHURSTasked the President of the Local Government Board whether, as the result of investigations conducted by his Department, it has been found possible to prevent the prevalence of house flies in dwelling-houses, shops, and hospitals, by feeding them on a fungus which proves fatal to them but is innocuous to children and animals; and, if so, whether and where such fungus can be procured?
§ Mr. HERBERT LEWISThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative, and the second question does not therefore arise.
