Concerning Mrs. Tubbs and Turkeys

There have been inquiries about the
method used for killing weevIls. our
California black-eyed peas are IN a
tight box Our wheat was in barrels.
We use carbon disulphide. Put one cup
full in a barrel, settle the cup level with
the wheat or peas and put the cover
on. DO not have the barrel or box level
full. The fumes are heavier than air
and will settle among the grains and
kill the insects or grubs. Keep cover
ed tight for several hours. And remem-
Der that a match or pipe will cause an
explosion just like gasoline. We keep
small can, such as you buy at the
drug store, all the time and use it as
it is needed. 1t has been in the smoke
