Weevils In Peas; And Beans
Can Be Prevented

If farmers will plant weevil-free
seeds, harvest beans, peas and cow
peas as soon as possible, treat the
crop to kill weevils and store it
where seeds can be protected from
reinfestation by weevils spreading
from infested seeds, large part of
the loss from these insects can be
prevented, according to Farmers
Bulletin 1875, Weevils in Beans and
Peas, by E. A. Back, entomologlst'
just issued by the United States De
partment of Agriculture. Copies
may be obtained upon application to
!. the department at Washington, d. G.
! These weevils, which never attask
corn and wheat, and but rarely in
fest velvet beans, soy beans or vet
ches, are particularly injurious be-
cause they can breed generation at
tier generation in dried seeds in stor-
age. During the hottest summer
weather one generation requires only
IS to 80 days for development. The
average total number Of eggs laid by
an individual during her life is
about 100. Infested seeds in bulk
usually heat, thus producing tenn
perature and moisture conditions
most favorable for the rapid develop
ment and vigorous breeding of
sweevils.
The belief that adult weevils have
developed from the germ" inside
the seed is erroneous. The small
round holes often observed in SEEDS
are made by the grubs of the weevll,
which upon Matching from eggs laid
in or on the pods, burrow into the
seeds by gnawing hole no larger
than a pin prick. Later the adults
emerge from the seeds.
Infestations in beans and peas
can be quickly and effectively stamp
ed out by fumigation with carbon
.disulphid. carbon tetrachlorid, or by
,drocyanic gas, and by means or heat
or cold storage. Weevils can be pre-
vented from breeding in storage by
mixing dust or air?slaked lime with
the seed Concerted action by al
community of growers has been
known greatly to reduce weevil in

Farmers Given More Time To
Prepare For Cooling Station

We will be ready to receive milk a
our temporary plants in Cambridge
and Hurlock Tuesday, January 18th
unless something unforeseen occurs
to delay the shipment of our equip
ment, said Mr.. Robert J. HARRISON OF
the HARRISON Diaries, Philadelphia
The Farmers will be given more time
to prepare for the delivery of milk
there will be more milk in the county
and we will not be rushed to get our
equipment in place.
Permanent sites at the two places
were selected and inspected by a
committee from the P. R. R. consist
ing of Messrs, VIM. L. Buchanan,
Milk Agent of Pennsylvania system,
J. H. Atwell, Asst. Train-master and
J. Bartlestone, Supervisor.
Plans for the two buildings, will
be drawn up at once, said Mr.. Harbl-
son, and we will begin work soon af-
ter the railroad officials make their
decision as to which lots will be more
desirable.
At the meeting in Cambridge
Tuesday night. the farmers OF Dor
chester county had occasion to meet
Mr.. HARRISON and general discus
sion was held relative to the handl-
ing of milk, testing, etc.
Milk is delivered at one door, the
cans are emptied into the scales, and
then put on the conveyor and carried
to the automatic can washer. By the
time the driver has driven around to
the other door the can is waiting for
him, thoroughly cleaned and dried,
said Mr.. HARRISON in his address to
the farmers. A small sample bottle
of milk is taken from the scales tank
every day and put on shelf with
the individual farmers number on the
bottle then the milk is tested for
butter fat every Is days. Any farm
er can be present when his milk IS
tested or have a separate test made.
The HARRISON Diaries have offered
to ship in cans and sell them for
cost, taking out the price of the cans
from the milk check if so desired:
There will be only one shipment
made to supply the present need. and

Just then a hand grasped his and
