The Greenville Enterprise says harvest
is at hand, and in view of the damage
done to corn by wesvils it may be inter-
esting as well as profitable to give Tex
ans mode Of protection against this pest.
In housing his corn he put on the corn
house floor, about four feet apart, two
open bottles containing bisulphide Of car
bon. The mouths Of the bottles were COW
cred with single laver of cheese-cloth,
and each bottle covered with an old
broken box to keep it in position. The
corn was thrown into the house, as usual,
over the bottles, and the result is said to
have been that neither weeviis nor rats
did any damage to the corn. Fifty cents
worth of the bisulphide was sufficient to
protect five hundred bushels of corn, and
It would be equally eficacious, we pre-
sumo, in the case of wheat. We give the
experiment for what it is worth, and it is
so simple that it Is we'll worth trial.
