It should be added that in order to destroy insects in a fumigator or other inclosure at a temperature much below 50° F. a larger quantity of the bisulphid of carbon is necessary than when the temperature is about 80° to 90° Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
