Choice at Sioux City Named-Money
for Public buildings.

Washington, Dec. s.--That the low,
lese in the future of naming post
masters ir their districts was made
clear when the president sent to the
senate the nomination of Edwin c.
Tomkins. of Sioux City, to he post
master at that place
Mr.. Tomkins will succeed Postmas
ter Badgerow, whose term expired last
May.
At the time Representative Hubbard
made recommendation to fill the va
cancN, but as the administration poll
icy then was to ignore the Insurgents
in matters of patronage no action was
taken in the case,
Representative Hubbard took up the
Sioux City case imetliately upon his
arrival in Washington last week. The
result was. that Mr.. Tomkins name
was forwarded to the senate.
From all that can be learned all the
insurgents will henceforth be recog-
nized by the administration in the
matter of patronage.

A South Missouri farmer had
a days work for one man. There
were several loafers on the sun
ny side Of the town square and
the farmer approached them to
tender the boon Of a days Job to
one Of them. He knew how
scarce jobs are in the winter and
he was sorry he could offer the
chance to only one Of the idle
men. He said: "Boy's I've got
q days job for one of you.
Wish I had work for all, but you
can draw lots to decide who shall
take it." He told them what
kind Of work 1t was. ''I've got

Maturity. Place ef Storage.
and Time ef Husking as
Factors Affecting 6ss
Viability Of Corn.

A few weeks ago the Expert,
ment Station called attention Il
the fact that the dry weather ir
the fall was unfavorable to proper
maturing of the corn crop anG
that the early freezes had un.
doubtedly killed the germs ol
large quantities Of it. As a con.
sequence good seed corn will be
hard to obtain in the spring. II
was advised that every man be-.
gin at once and test his own corn
and if it proved unfit to plant to
take steps to secure seed from a
reliable breeder.
To more accurately prove that
corn is in a bad condition the
Station sent a man out among the
farmers near Columbia to get
samples Of their corn. It was
taken from various places rang
ing from a good crib in the barn
to lying in the field. Ten kernels
we're taken from twenty ears Of
each variety that each man grew,
who were visited. According to
.he statements of the farmers
some Of this corn was husked
early, some late. Note was taken
where it was found stored.
The corn was brought in and
germinated, shs results being
classified under the following
heads:
Average per cent of termination,
early husked corn ................. 94.4|
Average per cent of germi-
nation, late husked corn ..... 85.6
Average per cent of germi-
nation, corn stored in dry

Average per cent of germi-
nation, in field or open
cflD OH
Average per cent of germi-
nation, matured and dry >. 9e.S
Average per cent Of gerni-
nation, but frozen ................ Ell
From the foregoing it can read.
lily be seen that there are at least
three factors that influence the
growing power OF corn; they are;
(D maturity, (2) husking before
badly frozen, and (3) storing in q
good dry place. Farmers not
having corn husked early nor
stored in a dry place are again
strongly advised to test their
corn. F. H. DEMAREE,

The Carbon Bi.Sulphide
Method OF Controlling
Weavel in Grain.


The Experiment Station has re,
ceived a large number of inquir'
les during the past year regard
ing the controlof weavel in grain
especially in cowpsas, and since
this subject seems to be Of con-
siderable interest to farmers thu
following concise directions are
given regarding the use OF carbon
bi-sulphide for this purpose.
Carbon bi-sulphide is a volatile
liquid which may be secured al
most drug stores. It is usually
put up in tight tin cans or in larg-
or quantities in iron drums. II
has the property Of evaporating
rapidly and giving off a heavy
gas. The principle on which this
material operates in controlling
weavel is that the heavy gas will
settle down into the grain crowd
ing out the air and smothering
any insects present. tits, there.
fore, necessary to put the grain
which is to be fumigated in q
tight bin, box, or barrel. If the
binsis not tight the gas will pass
through and not accomplish it's
purpose.
The amount to use is from / to
1 1+2 lb. for each 1000 cubic feet
Of space, which is the capacity Of
bin or room 10 feet each way.
1t may, of course, be used in pro-
portionately smaller amounts in
small bins or other reoeptacles.
The liquid is poured into a dish
which is set on top Of the grain
and then the bin is closed; or, il
it is receptacle as small as a
barrel, it is covered. 1t Is then
allowed to stand "A to 3e hours,
Wien the bin or receptacle should
be opened and allowed to air out.
There is no danger of injuring the
germination of the seed, and
where the bin is tight and the
proper amount used this method
is successful.
The precautions to be taken are
first to avoid inhaling the gas in
any quantity, and secondly to
avoid bringing fire near It as it
is very explosive.
This treatment is effective for
practically all insects in stored
grain and the cost is very slight,
since the material retails at from
Zoo to 35c a pound. In the case
Of elevators, where large quanti',
ties Of grain are to be fumigated,
it is best to buy the material in
larger cans at wholesale. It is
somewhat difficult to handle this
material effectively in large ele-
vators, unless the walls are es-
pecislly tight. M. F. MILLER,
