House flies breed in manure, especially in horse and pig manure, with a full life cycle in about ten days in heat. A single female lays nearly 500 eggs.

They bite along beaches and cause major blood loss and reduced milk yield in cattle in Maryland.

Precautions include covering drinking fountains, removing hay, avoiding feed trough contamination, washing troughs after spraying, and leaving some DDT on floors while cleaning.

A brief quotation praises the talent of success as doing what you can do well and doing well whatever you do without aiming for fame. Attributed to Loneyfellow, it frames success as skillful effort rather than notoriety.
