An chronological House
Cleaning
Before Filling the Grain Bins

The Entomologist of the Maine Agri-
cultural Experiment Station thinks that
perhaps never in the at all recent history
of our country have we had so good an
opportunity to start in fresh with the
grain situation, entOmOlogically consid-
cred.
This type of food for man, beast, or
fowl, having been at premium for the
several years of the war, we have scraped
the old flour barrels, and purchased spar
ingly both for patriotic and economic
reasons. The storehouses of the whole
sale dealer have been emptied, the groc-
er's supply has been brought low and the
grain products of the country have been
used to a narrower margin than ever oC-
ours in normal times.
This all means, of course, that when
ne buy our fresh supply we will he get
ting grain products that have not been
long on the market; and consequently
that the opportunity for their being in
tested with all the insect ills that grain is
heir to is much less than usual.
The moral is easy to read. The miller
who takes proper precautions, the farmer
who cleans out his grain bins, the whole
saer who looks we'll to his store rooms,
the grocer who prepares a fresh setting
for his cereals, and the housewife who
digs out the cracks under the flour barrel,
in brief all who take the trouble to get
rid of any left over cereal pests while the
supplies are still low should be rewarded
by being comparatively free from larder
insects for long time to come. And the
economic losses from these pests totals
large and to reduce their ravages is well
worth while from every Loint of view.
The simple, though in some circum-
stances laborious, process of houseclean-
ing, is a measure directed against a large
number of insects at once The yellow
meal-worm and the darker meal-worm,
hard, shiny cylindrical larval inhabitants
of the grain bin and the dark beetles
they transform into; the little Cadelle
that will devour various grains and then
mine through the bin boards themselves;
the wee saw-toothed grain beetle that
through commerce is said to have spread
over the whole earth; the granary weevil
and its long shouted relatives; four es-
pecially bad grain moths and their greedy
caterpillars; and mite or so--a mere
list of their names is suggestive of the
advantage to be gained by getting ready
to meet the new cereal supply with the
idea that it is to be used for food by
humans and their livestock rather than
as nesting place for insect pests.

Director.

THE MOST AND BEST.

The importance of economy has been
impressed on our minds in recent years.
We want to know that we are getting the
most and best for our money, no matter
what we spend it for
In the matter of medicine there is prob
ably no more economical course of treat
ment than Hoods Sarsaparilla and Pept-
lron-a real iron tonic-taken in conjunc-
ton, one before eating and the other
after.
The combination of these two great
medicines brings into cooperation such
Well-known substances as sarsaparilla,
IRON, nux and pepsin, best for the blood,
nerves and digestive organs.
This combination is especially recon-
mended in cases that are sCTofuIous, or
rheumatic, anemic and nervous, or where
the blood is both impure and pale, deficient
in iron.
In cases where laxative is needed
Hoods Pills should be taken.

n. Penrose Hallowell, Executive
Chairman of the Liberty Loan Com
mittee of New England who was in
Washington three days recently
discussing Liberty Loan matters
with the Treasury Department,
makes the following statement:
ut Is important to check immedi-
ately the growing impression that
the Victory Liberty Loan Campaign
is to be abandoned and that the
Government will finance its needs by
means of short term notes to be
placed among the banks. There is
no truth in such a rumor"
Secretary Glass has officially an
nounced that the campaign will be
launched not later than April 21st
and has called on all Liberty Loan
organizations to hold together and
use their utmost endeavor to distri-
butte the new securities as widely as
possible among investors
The Republican journal. [volume] (Belfast, Me.) 1829-current, 1919-03-13

AS far as New England is con-
cerned this is enough. The same or
ganization which has successfully
operated in four Liberty Loans will
be ready and pulling at the leash by
April 2lst, and the coming campaign
will be carried on with the utmost
activity.
The problem of the Treasury has
been to find an attractive form of
security to offer the public. The con
siderable discount at which the Sec
snd. Third and Fourth Liberty Loan
long term bonds are selling, (due en-
tirely to the enormous volume which
it has been necessary to sell IN a
short space of time) would make it
extremely difficult to sell another
long term issue at par unless the
rate was made comparatively high.
BY establishing not over a ~
rate Oh previous issues the Treasury
accomplished the remarkable and
most economical piece of financing
that the world has ever seen. If
rates of interest on these various
loans had been continuously and
substantially increased, we would bv
this time have had outstanding long
term bonds bearing a rate of at
least 80 and, due to the amount,
probably even then selling at a dis
count
This, without question, would
have driven down the prices of all
other outstanding securities, and
would have made difficult, or even
impossible, the financing of many
good companies, the operation of
which was necessary to the Govern
ment during war times.
ITO issue at this time a long term.
high rate bond would be foolish; for
In normal times 40 Government
bond should sell at a substantial pre-
MUM, and it would be manifestly
unwise to saddle the country with
4R%o or so rate for long period
Of years. This also would further
depress the prices Of existing secu-
rites.
The Secretary of the Treasury,
therefore, has wisely asked, and the
proposed bill provides that he be
given the right to issue COMPARE
lively short term security at a rate
of interest sufficiently high to make
its sale possible
When the armistice was signed
the unJustified feeling which sprang
up almost over night that as the war
was over there was no further ne
cess1ty for the purchase Of Govern
ment bonds Is, fortunately changing
very rapidly,
The country now realizes that
contracts which the Government had
made for the active continuation of
warfare must be settled; that our
men abroad must still be clothed and
fed and eventually brought home and
demobilized.
1T is naturally impossible to cut
off expenses all at once and the Vic
tory Liberty Loan must be sold to
meet expenses already incurred ard
only temporarily met by the issue of
Treasury Certificates.
Americans are not in the habit of
leaving unfinished a thing which
they have seriously undertaken and
they will not in this case. The war
financing is not yet finished, so when
the time comes everyone, including
those who are good naturedly grum-
bling about taxes. etc, will put their
hands deep in their pockets and
draw forth enough to Overs11hSc rjho
the loan. The sooner it Is success
fully behind US the less troubles we
shall have for the future"
