Insects Threaten Smithsonian Collections and Perishables

Smithsonian curators battle three insect threats to specimens, with moths and a beetle chewing feathers and skins while the elusive anthrinus invades horn and bone. Preservation methods include bisulphide of carbon and naphtholine, despite odor and health concerns, to guard birds, mammals, and even dried goods and costumes from spoilage and damage.

Hay Making Tips From a Pennsylvania Correspondent

A Southern Farm correspondent advises on hay making timing and method aimed at better curing and selling. Begin cutting in late June, prioritize clover-rich grass, start the mower at 4 pm, and run until night. Turn heavy hay, rake by early afternoon, and let damp hay stand briefly to dry. Store clover hay separately for cows, avoid stacking to prevent spoilage, and ensure sweet hay for cows.
