1.-THE Treasury department., the Wal

operate independently; instances Of co

Last Saturday night many pecul-

Most of the damage done by insects
to grain in storage and shipment Is due
to four species, the granary weevil, the
rice or black weevil, the lesser grain
borer or Australian weevil, and the An
goumois grain moth, according to
Farmers Bulletin 1860, Common

and r. T. Cotton and just published by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture. Others Of the 40 species or

letin can cause great damage II storage
conditions are unusually favorable for
their increase.
Remedial measures are mentioned
only briefly in the bulletin. The In
sects, 1t is said. can be destroyed by
the use Of heat, or by fumigation with
poisonous gases. A temperature of
100 degrees to 100 degrees, Fahrenheit,
maintained for a short time, viii kill
all stages of grain-infestlng insects,
without injury to the terminating
qualities Of the grain. Carbon disul-
phid, carbon tetrachlorid and hydrocy-
amc-acid gas are the funigants In most
common use today in treating infested
grain. OF these, carbon disulphid is
the best for treating grain in the bulk,
it is said. Information on this subject
is contained in other publications OF
the department.
Prevent lnfestation.
Infestation of grain in the field can
not be entirely prevented, but, by
proper precautions, it can be reduced
to a minimum, the bulletin points out.
The first generation of insects in the
maturing grain is usually small, and If
the grain is cut as soon as ripe
threshed as soon as dry, and then
placed in clean, deep bins, the damage
from this source will be slight.
It is when the grain is left In the
field long after 1t is ripe that serious
infestation results, for the insects In
crease in one or two generations to
enormous numbers. In the case OF
corn in the field, only ears damaged

The eradication Of pocket gophers is
very difficult unless all the farms in
district are cleaned up in one cam
paign. A district two or three miles
long is selected by the county agent,
and farmers in this district are in
vited to a gopher poisoning party. A
full attendance is usually secured.

day. In the afternoon, the party Is
divided into pairs, one person carrying
the bait and placing it in the runways,
while the other person uses a prod to
locate and open the runways. The
county agent or specialist spends some
time with each pair, giving instruc-
lions. All the infested area repre-

party" is covered and poison bait APP
piled. In many cases second day Is
required to complete the work, but all
members of the party invariably stay

In Furnas county the work has
been confined to the alfalfa fields in
the valley lands along three important
streams, the Republican river, and the
Beaver and the Sappa creeks. All last
summer the farmers were constantly
reminded of the importance Of the
work, and excellent results were OBJ
tanned from the community field par
ties in the fall. In the campaign $500
acres were covered. Figuring the ad.
vantage to the farmers in being rid OF
pocket gophers as half ton of alfalfa
per acre, this area would mean 1,25C
tons, or $4,000 saved.
