KILL THE WEEVIL BEFORE TAKING INFESTED GRAIN 
INTO YOUR MILL.

' Dear Sir: — You will please find enclosed check for $2.40 for 
Bisulfide of Carbon shipped me a few days ago. I gave the 
preparation a good test on one thousand bushels of wheat, in a 
car that was very badly infested with weevil. Twenty-four 
hours proved the test. At the end of that time the weevil had 
all gone to the forever beyond. I can cheerfully recommend it 
to anyone who may wish to use it faor the destruction of vermin 
in grain. 
Yours very truly, JULIAN DORIOT.

It seems as if that trusty servant of the miller, bisulphide 
of carbon, is to enlarge its sphere of usefulness. A doctor says 
in a recent publication: “I suffered from sciatica and rheuma- 
tism the torments of hell for six weeks, and was cured in less 
than three minutes by rubbing in from hip to heel half an ounce 
of carbon bisulphide. Give it to suffering humanity. A gentle- 
man from Canada called to see me, saw my intense sufferings, 
and told me a wealthy man spent a large fortune in trying to 
get cured of rheumatism, and that ten cents’ worth of the above 
cured him. Like a drowning man grasping at a straw'. 1 tried 
it and was well before I got dressed.” 
It doesn't cost much to try it and we pass it along to the 
miller for w'hat it is worth. — American Miller, October 1. 1900.

Dear Sir: Enclosed please find N. Y. draft for $8.50, also

Have you a recipe to kill weevils and insects in wheat? 
If so, kindly publish it. We have seen it in your paper but 
cannot remember it. K. G. 
Reply. — For about every ton of grain, place in the bin one 
pound of Bisulfide of Carbon. Simply make excavations in the 
surface and pour in the Bisulfide, which is a fluid, then draw 
back the grain, level off the surface and cover with blankets or 
similar objects, to keep the fumes down. The fumes will pene- 
trate the grain and kill everything among it in the way of 
insects. This is an explosive and must not be used near where 
there is fire of any sort. — Ohio Farmer, Aug. 13, 1896. 
For a two-story 30x40-foot building use not less than 100 
pounds. Double amount If badly infested.
