How to Remedy Loss
by the Corn Weevil.
Widespread interest is being
manifested by farmers and mer
chants in the pea and corn wee
vil situation in this State. Up to:
this time we have never “stopped
to calculate the interest in dis
pute” between ourselves and the
pest mentioned. We have never
counted the losses brought to far
mers and merchants by the pea
and corn weevil. With no known
remedy at hand, we have regard
ed the depredations of the wee
vils as a matter of course. Not
so in these ossertive latter days.
The urgent question now is
how may the weevils be controll
ed? In plain English, how may
they be killed while engaged in
their destructive work on peas
and on corn?
The only remedy is a judicious
use of carbon-di-sulphid, other
wise known as carbon bi-sulphid.
This is a highly inflammable li
quid. It must be handled with
even greater care than a very
careful person is, accustomed to
handle gasoline. It follows
that no fire— lighted cigar, cig
arette or pipe, candle or lamp —
should be anywhere near when
the sulphid is in hand for use.
That you may clearly under
stand the manner of treatment
necessary to the destruction of
the weevils, let us deal with com
paratively small quantities of
peas or of corn; for either, ex
cept corn in the ear
or corn in the shuck, way be kept
in large, tight sugar barrels or in
specially constructed bins. The
barrels or bins should each be
filled to within 10 to 12 inches
of the top. Have at hand blank
ets or closely woven sacks with
which to cover each barrel or bin
as soon as the vessel containing
the liquid is set in the barrel or
bin. With the liquid, fill a mod
erate size shallow pan three
fourths full. Set the pan on the
peas or corn in center of top.
Cover quickly and closely. Let
person charped with this duty
leave building immediately, clos
ing doors and windows tightly.
Let stand 36 hours, then open for
ventilation; later, remove the
covering. Have an eye to the
peas and corn; it may possibly be
necessary to give another treat
ment within two weeks.—Mar
tin V. Calvin.
