An Authoritative Opinion.

When does the honeymoon end? is a
question which has been discussed for
a good many generations. It would be
presumptuous, perhaps, notes the Ell
Paso Times, for US to try to settle it,
but just the same we have strong
suspicion that this little sentiment
could be prolonged If she, when she
hears his football, would go to the door
and greet him, rather than skid into
the kitchen to hurry up dinner which
has languished while she gossiped with
the neighbor or bathed the cat.

Use Of surname..

The custom Of using surnames for
Christian names, as exemplifed in the
cases Of Harrison and Mr.. Holden,
goes back at least three centuries, but
the people stuck pretty close to Johns,
Edwards and Thomases. In this coun-
try we have seen tendency to use, at
baptism, the mothers family name as
. middle name for the child. This, no
doubt, is leading to more free use Of
family names as given names. For the
most part, however, We are John Hen.

CORN IN WEEvIL-PROOF sHUCKs
BEST TO SAVE FOR PLANTING


Grow the best shuck-protected corn;
store the weevil-proof ears in their
shucks; shell and clean and feed, or
sell, the unprotected ears as early as
possible.
That is the general plan for reduc-
ing insect damage, now and in the
future, recommended to the average
corn grower in southern weevil-in-
tested sections by specialists of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. The measures should be put
into effect now, as the crop is har-
vested and as seed for planting next
year is selected. In Farmers Bull
letin 915, How to Reduce Weevil
Waste in Southern Corn, recently
published, specialist describes in
detail the measures recommended.
Harvesting should be done as soon
as the corn is sufficiently dry, the
specialist says, in telling how to ham
die this years crop to insure min
imum loss from weevils. After har-
vesting, the ears should be sorted into
two classes-an operation which can
be done rapidly indoors with ordin-
ary farm labor at time when it is
too wet or stormy to work in the field.
The first class should include all of
the ears that apparently have weevil-
proof shucks. These ears may then
be stored in their shucks until such
time as they are needed.
Weevil- Infested Ears
The second class should include all
ears with tips protruding beyond the
shucks, with loose or open shucks, and
any others that are probably infested
with weevils. These ears require i'm
mediate attention to minimize the in
sect damage, as the weevils in them
will continue to multiply except dur
ing the coldest part Of the winter.
Ears showing light infestation should
be shelled and the grain cleaned to
remove the live weevils. If neces-
sary to store corn that does not have
good shuck protection, damage will
be reduced if the corn is shucked,
shelled, cleaned, and put in bags of
close-woven cloth.
The shelled corn must not be stored
in large mass or it may heat during
periods of high temperature. A slat-
ted crib lined with galvanized-wire
netting having IA inch meshes is
ideal for the storage of the bags Of
grain, as it provides good ventilation
and excludes rats and mice. Fall
and early winter injury by weevils
in corn from poorly protected ears
can be prevented by fumigating if one
has bas-tight storage bin. Farmers
Williston graphic., 1918-10-03

Bulletin 799, Carbon Disulphid as an
Insecticide, tells how fumigating can
be done.
The Importance of selecting for seed
ears we'll protected by shucks that
extend tightly several inches beyond
the tips of the ears is pointed out by
the specialist. 1t is best to make the
selections in the field. But whether
seed corn is selected in thc field or
from the bin, it is desirable not only
to select the best ears but to be sure
that the ears have long, tight shucks.
Such selection now will insure better
shuck protection in future crops
against insects-the corn ear worm
as we'll as the weevil.
