Jcderal reserve membfe ik had refused to becomo a par "of the system. > n All the others and more than 7,000] state noh-member banks were under the protection of the insurance plan, which until July 1 guarantees ill all accounts of $2,500 or leSB and which thereafter will cover deposits of an even larger amount. As for the one staying outside, the First National * ^;of Englewood, 111.,! officials expec^prompt settlement of J its case when the time comes. Unless it changes its Saind by July 1 an3 buys its allotted shares of deposit corporation stock the law compels the federal reserve board, Governor Black said vtoday, to expell it from the] Reserve System. In addition, the law stipulates that the comptroller of the currency mustj appoint a receiver or conservator for i the institution. However, the banld 1 could circumvent this, it was said, by , relinquishing, meanwhile, its charter as a national bank and obtaining a license to operate an a state bank. , In refusing to join in the insurance ( plan, officials of the bank asserted | that only government coercion could bring it in. They said they felt it was an injustice to assess their j institution for the purpose, of insuring | deposits in banks less ably tn\anaged,i The bank, thpy addedy could be mad, 100 per cent , liquid ififujjjpMP Veek\ time and its depositonr needed n< insurance. / TV The author of thelegfalation^? , ^ | viding for the tompora^y^Bos^^ace ? plan betw^eh noW an^ ? J I heaped praise upon the deposit cor- , poration and the Reconstruction Cor-1 poraation- for a "superb piece of work" in getting the system func- j tionin*1. on the appointed day. I Through the system inaugurated! today, he said, safety of 97 .per cent] of the nation's depositors has been provided, and "any remotQ excuse" hoarding removed. "This spells maximum fiscal and i social service and minimum hazard," he added. "Personally I should be glad to sec his temporary formula and this $2,500 limit substituted for the pemanent formulr. which other wise becomes effective in July, if our I experience during tha next few j months vindicates our expectations, i "Such a substitution mitfht give | ur the greatest factors of safety and permanence and universal acceptance of the new system which Ubelieve to ho the greatest advance ever ma<f)! in American banking. Tho savingft of America now are safe. There no longer is any remote excuse for lirvi vHinp General banking no longer should be menaced by postal savings competition. The credit situation should b- nnrmanPi'Mv ImorovecV" Meanwhile. Chairman Jones of tho RFC disclosed, tho extent of that agency's operations and s^trcngthing the capital structure of the nation's banks through purchase of preferred stock or capital notes. The activities were an frnportant part in prepara *ir>n f r, the operation of the insur A _ . aner system. ?few Members to Take Oath.

These pests are hauled to the crib from the field. At every load thousands ofl these weevils sift through the corn and lie on the floor of the wagon bed. When the wagon bed is swept, the sweepings should be burned and not thrown on the ground. Weevils may 4mcontrolled by fufai-'" - i gating with carbon bisulphide This liquid, as well aa the gas, is easily set on fire and then explodes violent- . ly. For that reason .,:Jk should be' handled eVen more -'Cautiously than gasoline; hence.f ire$<f! all kinds, including lighted jpipfes, cigars, can dles, embers, lamp#* etc., should be kept away. Lofts should not be fum igated when livestock, li kept under them. When the tftMerial is not in use it can be stored. In a cool place. Carbon bisulphide may be obtained from local dealers and from whole sale drug houses at from 20 to 80 cents per pound in small lots, and 7 to 10 cents per pound In 100-pound drums, f. o. b. The containers arb furnished at an extra cost but art returnable. DIRECTIONS FOR FUMIGATING Clean old bins thoroughly. Make the bins or cribs tight. Select a time when* the temperature of the air is not below 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Use carbon bisulphide at the rate of 7 pounds to 100 bushels of grain as follows. Level the com at the sur face, and at points three feet apart each way pull out the ears to make holes. Into these pour the carbon bisulphide in equal amounts. Throw the ears back and spread blankets over the grain. Close the crib tight. Fumigation should be continued for 24 to 48 hours before the crib is opened. No ventilation is necessary except that if the crib is a brick one it should be ventilated at the end of 3d to 48 hours. HENRY D. GREEN, Cty. Agt.
