HUSk SOUTHERN CORN
Husked Corn Is Freer From Insects
And Can Be Stored And Fumigated
More Economically.

Husked Corn Is Freer From Insect,
And Can Be Stored And Fumigated
More Economically.
Southern farmers should husk their
ear corn in the field and not store il
with the husk on, according to spe-
cialists of the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture. The husks car
ry from the field to the crib the in
sect pests that attack corn, and the
damage to the corn is thereby incrcas-
ed. 1t is possible to fumigate husk-
cd corn more effectively at less ex-
pense, and much greater amount of
husked corn can be stored in the
same crib ROOM
This advice, which is contrary to
the custom more or less general in
the South of storing corn with the
husks on, is based on recent investi-
cations. 1t is found that cribbing
corn with the husks on insures carry
ing practically every insect from the
held to the crib, and it practically
doubics the volume of storage room
required per bushel of corn.
The amount of carbon disulphid
needed to treat unhusked corn in op-
Ell cribs is much larger than that re-
quired for husked corn in closed
cribs. Husking in the field will leave
at least three-forths of the insects
on the husks in the field. This will
reduce subsequent injury during stor-
age.
There is no need for an open crib
in which to store the thoroughly we'll
matured corn of the South. Storage
roows must be made tight enough
for fumgation. The dosage required
for bare ears will be about 10 pounds
of carbon disulphid per 1000 cubic
feet, or one-half the amount needed
with the husks on. Store as soon as
corn is thoroughly matured and fumi-
gate promptly for best results. If
insect attack develop in the crib treat
again, using a heavier dosage. Doing
the work during warmer weather will
increase the effectiveness of the gas.

A year ago, when the French were
still at Verdun and the Germans-tC
quote the now famous phrase---wcrc
"still at Noyon," the most striking
thing to the foreigner in France was
the attitude of the French themselves
toward the enemy. France was in
vaded; for already two years she had
been fighting on her own soil the
greatest fight in history; her suffer
ing and her losses had passed all mca-
sure; yet rarely from any source did
one hear a word of bitterness. The sol
dier had always a generous phrase
for the soldiers valor-thc Boche.

ranks, where feeling always runs
higher and more bitter, there were
contempt, dislike, an iron resolution,
but an absence of violent expression.

In New York ! had listened skcp-

that the French feeling for the Ger

grettable incident of the war had
hardly disturbed it. That was his
thoroughly German reading Of the
French containmcnt-an exhibition
in small of that Teutonic inability
to understand the other man which
has made German diplomacy won
der of the world and will in the end
lose that world to the German. But
the calin of the French people might
really have misled subtler brains-a
year ago.
That was year ago. Today there

Great as the change in the French

herself the greatest invader of Eu-

little bitterly at our innocence, as
he regards it, of the German nature,

virtue here-for us who have seen

said that two distinct results had been

impossible. He thought that the ma
chinery of the food administration IN
New York City would be so perfected
by the end of this week that food
boarding could not exist.

Even though the fooc administra-
ton has been on the job only a short
time, boarding Of food in any large
quantities is extremely difficult. In
the first place, any man who tried IL
on a big scale would be in danger Of
exposure by employees loyal to the gov
eminent. There is a further risk. in

the hoarder TO get insurance on his
commodities without giving himself
away. Then there is the Secret Ser
