It appears superfluous to oinph.isi/.e
I he nature of the damage In
Mored grain insects, but briofl\
slnlcd, il -nmounts to the following.
Infested grain is unfit for hiunati
f-onsumplion, serious eases of illness I
caused by i| having been reported. It i
is undesirable for stock food, if having
been experimentally proved that |
Verses are injured by if. Tt is unfit I
for seed because the young germinal- I
ing plant is deficient in food supph !
ami a diminution of the crop is ver\ {
rip; lo be the result. )
The principal inscct enemies
stored grain in this State arc the i
weevil and I lie Angoumois gi
moth. The J'onner is well known
ing a blackish beetle with a 1
shout or proboscis having four m
or less distinct red spots on the bt
The weevils about the size of the i
weevil but of a uniform brown co
frequently met with in grain b
are granary weevils. These gran
weevils during long years of dome
cation have lost the use of tl
wings hence arc severely liandic
pod in migrating from crib to crib
between the crib and field. The 1
weevil has well developed wings i
knows how to use them to advantu
Of' the weevils it is, therefore,
rice weevil that chiefly concerns
The oilier notorious pest is
irrain moth, which resembles a sn
butterfly with wings folded. It fi
with the ease of a house fly and 1
the rice weevil begins its work of
-truction in the field.
Tin* weevils lay their eggs in
- I where the young larva eats
-lurch; when full grown it chan
11? the dormant or pupa stage fi
which I he full grown weevil em
li'cs and works its way out to lay
I'li'js for another brood. The ti
from egg laying to full grown wot
requires about six weeks.
Tlii' life history of I he moth is 3

method to control the pests in e

Assuming that the crib is mod

hallow vessels and lliese set ill v

like wilier over the surface. In t i?
bins i lie sprinkling method is couv
ient and effective, but in open. le?i
bins the vessels are recommend
When the bin is open it should
made tiirhl if possible. In case
log cribs this may be accomplisl
by means of canvas tacked over
walls. Assuming that a farmer
sires to treat an open crib the folk
i11*_r method is suggested.
Instead of sprinkling the cliemi
over the surface or distributing it

bottles with narrow necks and tli

uncorked. The liquid will esc;

The writer has frequently witnes:

liquid should be used at the rate
two to three pounds per 100 bush
and when the insects escape many
them may be trapped by corn plai
it: different places about the hui
ini: for this purpose. Later this ei
may be fumigated like seed grain
scribed below.
Where only a small quantity
m ain is to be fumigated, such as si
corn, it may be accomplished
pouring it in a coal oil or wliisl
barrel. Such a barrel will accomi
dale about !> bushels. Three onn
of carbon bisulphide is poured ti
the surface and the barrel tigli
(dosed for twenlv-fonr to thirtyhours.
The opening of the bai
