Although a very fouI-smeiling liquid, 1t

be placed in tin pans, soup plates, or

the grain. The room or bin should be
closed as tightly as possible and left
for at least twenty-four hours. I would
advise its use in pans or soup plates,
as the fumes are kept more constant
for a greater length of time, as evapor-

secured.

there need not be any fear to persons
applying it, as a reasonable amount can
be inhaled without injury during the
operation. OF course, it is necessary for
the person applying the material to go
out of the building as soon as possible.

King Haakon the Good is distin-

sovereign of Norway. He was sent by
