AVliy -wouldii’t eoi'ii starch answer for 
I)a(»crinfr one’s house? We have always 
used it, boiled, and if a little glue i,s add¬ 
ed it will give satisfaction. Be sure to 
have the paper well pasted. iMany years 
ago. in Charleston, S. 0., where I was 
engaged in business, a brother also in 
business, supplied the bill posters of that 
<-ity and all they used was corn starch. 
It was always boiled. Thousands of paper 
bags made by the grocers in the same city 
were pa.sted with boiltHl corn starch, hold¬ 
ing from one-fourth to two pounds. They 
are made very rapidly by practice, 24 
sheets pasted at one time. 
The glass churn was started this morn¬ 
ing at 7 :80 and at 7:35 the butter was 
about ready to be taken out of the milk. 
It has been in use successfully for three 
j’ears. Have churned the cream with an 
egg beater man.v times, and have had 
the butter come in three minutes more 
than once. Everything must be right. 
After churning 80 or 40 minutes, cream 
has been set aside to be tried again at 
other times. 
C(ung to the field with a little can of 
milk for (|uenching thii’st, a storm came 
up and the writer hurried back to the 
Imnse. about one-half mile. When can 
was oj)ened it was found the butter in the 
milk bad sejiarated and was in one mass. 
Noting where fully 30 acres of corn 
was pulled by the crows, it seems to me 
that soaking* the corn in copperas water 
for 10 houi's might make it so distasteful 
to the birds they would refrain from going 
over the whole field. We used this on 
the grain we plant on account of the 
ground squirrels and sand rats. Only a 
few hills are disturbed ; where not used 
they destro.v much grain. I used about 
one pound copperas to one or two gallons 
of water. U. G. B.
