ffIEH IN BINS HIT 81 WEEVIL hdiana Farmers Experifflc ina More Trouble v> ith Stored Wheat ”arni<“:: in most sections of Indfana a.e experiencing more trouble w ph their stored wheat, according to Prof. J •> I)avla - heßd ® f lhe EnU> mology Department tot the Purdue I'nivei ity Agricultural Experiment Station, who has Inspected the stored wheat on a number of Indiana farms the past two weeks Thu presence of weeviels in the wheat has added difficulties to the damp wheat which prerads in many sections. < arhon blstilhid treatment is advised as a control tor the weevil which seems to be largely responsible at present for the heating of the stored grain. \ number of kinds cf weevil are found, according to T’rofeessor Davis, but the predominant species is not which does not damage wheat extensively. It is a mold feeding species, which has become anundant because (l s the slight maiding of the grain due t 0 the damp leather. Even though It does not feed to any extent on the grain, this weevil is a pert calling for control because It causes the, grain to heat.’ / Carbon bisulphid is the material to use. In order to reach the lower parts o f the bin it Is advisable <o use a' pipe ascot ar two in length, inserting it in the grain and pouring in the enquired amount of bisulphid. \I roab y a better method is to push gunny sacks down into the grain a wont o' more and pour the bisulphid on the exposed end of the sack. After the carbon bisulphid has been applied the grain should be covered with a blanket r tarpoulin to prevent the loss < f fume- Leave for 12 to 24 hours and then air out before entering. It is desirable to shovel over the grain after the airing so as to secure complete evaporation cf the liquid. The amount to use i< one noun dper 100 cubic f ■ or 80 bushels. Carbon bisulphid is explosive and inflamable, hence fires of all kinds must be kept away doling fumigation. Al■i it is not advisable to keep stock in the building while the fumigation h in progress. Never attempt to fnmiwhen the temperature is below 4ki degrees F. and 70 degrees or above Is better.

What’s in a Name? After quoting statistics to show that t the amount of gasoline extracted from a given z amount of crude'has more than doubled-during the past ten years, Petroleum Age makes the following statement: .have..made Jr developing cracking processes, which develop ment is the only thing that has kept gasoline at a reasonable price.” The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) discovered and developed the first commercially successful process for producing gasoline by cracking. With a vision of what an extensive use of its discovery would mean to the people, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) gave the benefits of its scientific work to competitors, leasing to them the processes which it had discovered and developed. This action of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) made it possible for the entire indus- « try’ to unite in stretching the available crude to meet the spectacular increase in demand for gasoline, resulting from the enormous increase in the number of automobiles. Without an extensive use of cracking processes, the demand could not have been met, and the price of gasoline, today, would have been prohibitive. The success of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) in keeping the price of gasoline within the reach of everyone is a realization of the steadfast purpose which always has animated this organization. Through the years, that purpose has never changed. To serve the thirty million people of the Middle West with every resource at its cdmmand, always has been the unvarying practice of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). > Any product bearing the name of the Stallard Oil Company (Indiana) is of a standard * grade. There is no variation, no deviation from that standard. The consumer knows what he is getting, because the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) knows with scientific precision what it is selling —standard products of standard uniformity and standard excellence. Through long years of consistent service, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has proved itself worthy of, and has won, the confidence of its patrons. Never changing in its purpose to serve the ) people of the Middle West—never changing in its loyal atntude toward them- never changing in the high standards of the products it produces for them —has made the name of this Company a guarantee of dependability.
