The meal worm feeds on -four, meal,
and even dust and refuse of mills and
granaries.
Insects of the granary are much
more easily kept out than put out. All
places where grain or any of its prod
ucts are stored should, above all
things be kept clean-nOt merely APP
parently clean, but actually so. Cracks
In the walls and floor, for example,
may seem to be clean when swept
over, but may really be filled with the
dust of grain and similar debris and
thus become a breeding place for a
number Of granary insects.
Rooms and bins should, in fact,
be so constructed as to be free frOr
cracks, the walls, floor, and ceiling
smooth, and everything solid and snug.
No rubbish of any kind should be al
lowed to accumulate, either in tfN
building or on adjacent premises. Ev'
erything should also be dOre to keep
insects out of the storehOuse.
The more important special meas
ures which, used alone or in G. Enbina'
ton may prevent infestation hg gran
airy pests, may be described as fol-
lows:
1. Small grain should be threshed
and stored as soon after ripening as
possible. Wheat should be harvested
and threshed directly from the shock
if practicable, but if stacked, should
not stand in the field longer than is
absolutely necessary.
2. The place intended for the re-
ception of crop should be thoroughly
cleaned out some time in advance, and
If there is reason to suppose that it
has contained granary pests, it should
be fumigated with sulphur. Complete
protection against weevils requires
that rooms for grain should be made
tight, with windows screened and
doors clOse-fitting, and also that theS
should be cool and dry. With proper
care and some additional expense, any
such structure can be made gas-tight
and suitable for the fumigation of its
contents with carbon bisulfide, but the
need Of thorough ventilation should
not be left out of account.
8. If it were possible to dry grain
from the field artificially at a tenn
perature Of 125 degrees F. for four
or five hours, all insects would be
killed and the grain could then be
stored in a thoroughly clean and tight
place, and safely left until needed for
shipment or use. Corn which has
been shelled dry and sacked is much
safer than that left on the ear,
whether with or without the husks.
Grain stored for seed should be dried
artificially, since it not only keeps
better and terminates more generally,
but it is also less liable to be eaten
by such insects as devour the kernel.
4. Farmers, seedsmen, and millers
should, in buying grain, make supe
that it is free from insects.

FEED CATTLE FOR SHIPMENT
Pennsylvania Experiment Station
Recommends Water Be Withheld
Before Shipping.

In preparing cattle for shipment con.
siderable attention should be given to
feeding so as to lower the shrinkage
as much as possible. The Pennsyl-
vania State college agricultural ex.
pertinent station recommends that
water be withheld from animals be-
fore shipping and that they be fed tim.
Othy hay and whole oats to prevent
loOseness during shipping. Under such
treatment cattle will arrive at the
market in a more attractive appear
ance and will take on a much heavier

Their bone or pearl, and buttonholes,
are used for fastening the jacket,
whether the material of the dress is
white or color, and the embroidery is
done in white cotton.
The same character of suit is made
with a MILDLY blouse. This simplifies
the matter of laundering them. EN-
broidery is left out of the reckoning
on these. Among the newest and most
satisfactory house dresses are skirts
and blOuses in one, of unbleached lin
en- or cotton resembling it. In making
these clothes, that must stand the
wear of everyday and a weekly tub
bling, goods that will look best in the
long run should be chosen. White and
unbleached materials will probably
stand the test of time better than any
color.

Here is a pretty and sensible morn
ing dress which may be made of linen
but is more likely to be made of cotton
such as Indian head or some other
suitable weave. For it appears that
linen is soaring in price, with tie end

PRIDE IN COLTS AND HORSES
Farmer Can Well Afford to Feed and
Care for Young Animals to At
tract BUYERS.

By w. L. BLIZZARD, Department OF
Animal Husbandry, Oklahoma A. and
M. College, Stillwater.)
Every farmer should have a pride in
tie colts and horses he raises. If the
packer and brewer can afford to pay
fancy prices for f1ashy geldings largely
for advertising purposes, the farmer
can well afford to feed and care for his
young colts in such a way that they
will be attractive to these buyers.
In fact, every farmer should be am.
bilious, not only to raise the best
crops, but also to produce the best
stock Of all kinds. If he has the best
teams in the neighborhood, they will

attract great deal of attention. The
farmers son would certainly become
deeply interested in a fine team OF
purebred mares and the colts they
raise. 1t would stimulate him and en-
courage him to put forth his best eff
forts for their care and management
The boy who is proud Of the stock
develop a colt good enough to win al
one of the local fairs is not nearly sc
likely to leave the farm.

This list was prepared by. County
Court Clerk G. P. Simonton from the
figures published in the Commercial APP

he some eros in it as the figures were
all teIegraphed from washington
when drawn and some mistakes may
have been made in transmitting them
over the wires. Mr.. Sim0nton was
not required officially to prepare the
figures, but did so merely for the pur-
nose Of giving the people an oppor,-

numbers did not apply to Upton coun-

To find the order in which you, are
drafted, conut the serial numbers

For instance, No. 258 is the first man

second man drafted, No. 458 is third
man drafted, No. 1886 is fourth man
drafted. No. 1924 is fifth man drafted,
No. 854 is sixth man drafted, No. 1894

There are six serial numbers to the

and multiply by six it will approx
mate the order in which you are

REGISTRANTS ARE EAGER
TO LEARN THEIR NUMBERS

County Clerk Chas. P. Simonton,
who has the Upton county registra-
ton list of 1881 names posted in his
office, has been almost constantly en-
gagged for the past ten days in ascer-
tanning registration numbers for the
public. His time has been totally
consumed in this work since the draw
ing took place in Washington last
Friday. Hundreds of men from all
parts Of the county have sought this
information at his Office in the court
house every day this week.
Last Saturday large crowd of
young men gathered at the courthouse
to hear the entire list read, giving all
those present an opportunity to ascer-
tain their numbers as their names
were called. Mr.. Simonton has re-
peatedly read the list to similar gath
erings throughout the week and on
each occasion it required over three
hours to complete the reading. New
ertheless, his eager hearers were very
attentive, listening to every name and
