MANHATTAN, June 24.-Afew .
cents worth of carbon bisulphide
will kill the insects hiding ia.
the cracks of your bins waiting
for the new grain. Right now,
before harvest begins,is the time
to clean out and fumigate these
storerooms in the granary. In
sects injurious to stored grains,
says G. A. Dean, bug specialist
at the Kansas Agricultural Coll
ege, work so vigorously that the
farmer must either kill them,
dispose of his grain, or sit still
and allow them to damage it.
Killing these pests now before
the grain is stored will prevent
much damage next fall and win
ter, he says. So this is "word
of warming"
One pound of carbon bisul-
phide, when the temperature IL,
is about &c degrees, will fumi-
gate 500 cubic feet of space. At
80 degrees, four hundred cubic
feet will be tAeatsd Thr build-
ling and bins must be as nearly
alright as possible while fumi-
| eating. The carbon bisulphide
should be placed in shallow pans
at the top of the bins or building
If the grain is not to be used for
seed, it is well to allow the vapor
to remain in il for 4S hours.
Doors and windows should be
opened wide after the fumigation
and the bins aired thoroughly an
hour or two before entering.
Carbon bisulpbide is highly in
fammable. Electric lights
must not be used, US there is
danger Of producing a spark
when turning them on. 1t is not
safe to have heat of any kind in
the building when the fumigatIcn
is in progress.

Many Of our people attended
the sale at the DeCow farm, south
of Meade, last Tuesday. Every
thing sold well, especially the
stock. One Jersey COW sold
for $l75.0O, another COW, two
years old, sold for $124.00 and
calf FIVE months old sold for $50.
The average price paid for cat
tie, was SIS. The sale is said to
be the best ever held in the coun-
ty. 1t was we'll advertised and
Mr.. DeCow had secured the best
auctioneer in the state, ]. |.
Stamper. The higheat estimate
of what the sale would net was
$500, but when it was over, Mr..
Decow found himself to be more
than thousand dollars richer
than he thought, for the total
figures were s294O. A well adj
vertised sale and good auction
eer will surely get you what your
property is worth. Mr.. DeCow
has been in the county long
time. in fact, is the Oldest settler
and recently sold his farm south
of Meade for $4,000. He and
his wife will reside in Meade for
the present. We don't know of
any one whom we would rather
see enjoy life than Geo DeCOw.

"One sultry day in sum mer,
There came a little snow
PERCY WALpRoN,

"One sultry day in ummer,
There came a little snow"
The only difference to the
above was that Monday was not
sultry, but it was day in sum-
mer and it showed in Guymon,
according to the testimony of
numerous citizens whose repu-
tation for truth and veracity can
not be questioned. 1t is assert
ed by several that snow fakes in
profusion abounded that day,
and several from out in the west
end of the county report having
seen snow fakes. The Herald
is giving solely what it believes
to be the news in the matter, for
none of this Office force saw
snow, but all agree it was cold
enough to produce the white
fakes, for it was something
fierce. -Guymon Herald.

STARTING IN LIFE
Young People Don't Realize the Com
forts Of Home and Need of a Prepar-
alton While at Home.

AT certain age of ones existence,
nearly all mankind is imbued with the
spirit of preparation for the battle of
life that is before him. For years the
young do not worry over matters that
father or mother can care for, so they
goon day after day, determined to
have good time, while under the par.
entail roof. regardless of consequences.
But as all things. sooner or later come
to an end, go the maturer nature of the
young yearn for the accumulation of
property that they may have a compe-
tency to start business for themselves.
During the present week one of our
most respected young men detached
himself from his home and business
that he had worked at for about two
years, and started for the Pacific states
where he is offered good wages for
his labor, expecting In few years to
accumulate enough to start himself
right. The prospects were not good in
Extra to Mr.. Earl McClain. He start

too brought orders to lay aside certain

STRUCK HAPPY MEDIUM
The two Atlantic Newspapers Con-
solidated, the News Having Pur-
chased the Telegraph. Will
Not Issue Weekly

AS mentioned in the Journal the
week before last The Atlantic News
and Telegraph consolidated, ''The
News" having purchased the right
title, andinterest of the Telegraph.
In his announcement Brother Chase
says: ''The new proposition will be
vested in the News Publishing Com
pany through its officers, Charles f
Chase, President and e P. Chase, Sc
crstary and Treasurer with r. j. Cor
nell as local editor. The News-Tele.
graph will be issued caily but the
weekly edition of both papers will be
discontinued"
The day of the political newspaper
has about gone in this country and peo.
pie take news papers for the news, not
for politics. The Chases will make the
News Telegraph one of the best if not
the best daily in Western Iowa and
the people of Atlantic will be proud of
their paper. Mr.. Wiseman has GER
tainly been strong man in the field
hut he town is not large enough fo1
two and the results too meager.
