BRAN and SHARPS m Stock. ■ • • ■ . • • ■ ■ • -■• IMPORTANT 11 TO Graia Growers. I BEG to call the attention of Farmers and Grain Produoera to my new method of poisoning Wheat for the destruction of small birds. In former years the poisoned grain supplied from various sources had some serious defects, whloh I claim to have 1 entirely obviated mmy new and patented " process. • By the old method, immediately the 1 Wheat begins to grow, the poison is 1 absorbed and becomes useless. Whole Wheat does not absorb the poison beyond the outer skin or bran and a few showorß of rain washes It off. ' I have imported a machine at con- -1 slderable cost for splitting the wheat berry along the crease and- removing the germ, which, of course, prevents germl- nation, thus preserving the full strength 1 of the poison when applied. The Wheat preparod by my process absorbs the Btrychnlne through the "floury portions of the berry after it lfl> split and deeermed, and aa the birds are known to reject the outer- husk and eat only the inside, the poison oanoot fall to be affeotlve. Seconds of Wheat contain so many foreign seedß, such as combine, aorrel, dock weeds, &c, wbioh birds never touch, that It Is expensive, and a waste of strychnine to use it aa has hitherto been done. The small and withered grains m seoonds cannot possibly absorb sufficient poison to make It of any value, and much injury la done to the Mand m the dleaernlaatloQ of noxious weeds. I shall bo pleased to show samples of Wheat as it cornea- from the machine and after poieonjgag, and explain fully the improve- ments In my process to all ! wh'b i: £t#ke an interest m grain growing.
