The best time to handle the weevil ls In the full, when tho corn ls stored, but If you failed to do so then, lt ls advisable to treat it now, since tho weevil becomes activo at the begin ning of warm days, and will become , even more active later in the spring. Carbon bisulphide, or "Fuma," ls tho substance to be used, lt can be obtained from local druggists at about 25 cents a pound, or lu larger quantities from wholesale dealers at about 15 cents per pound, delivered. This substance is a volatile liquid, evaporating rapidly when exposed, and giving off a foul-smelling gas, almost three times as heavy as air. Extr?me care must be oxerlcsed In its use that neither matchee nor fire in any form aro brought near tho crib during fumigation, as the gas is easily Inflammable, and an explosion would be likely to occur. This substance should be applied at the rate of IO pounds per 1,000 cubic feet of space, or, approximate ly 100 bushels of corn. Spread sacks over the surface of the corn and pour tho carbon bisulphide over these. Care should be taken to have plenty of room between the corn pile and tho top of the crib, to allow free movement of the man who does the fumigating. Beginning at tho back of the crib, pour the liquid as uni formly as possible over the surface of tho corn. The gas given off be ing heavier than air s.'nks I m medi ately down through tho corn, and, penetrating to tho weevils, kills them by suffocation. Carbon bisul phide is not dangerous to apply when care Is exercised to breathe as little of It as ls possible and to apply it as quickly as ls practicable. In the average crib, conflue tile gas as long as possible; tn practically every case lt will havo entirely escaped within 4 8 hours. Fumigation with this strength of the liquid, so far as ls known, In no way injures either the germinating or feeding qualities of the corn so treated. Wilson P.
