Re: Liquid Poured On A Grain Load
There were/are lots of liquid grain fumigants applied as you describe,some brand names were Weevil-Cide, Phostoxin and many others. Application of these fumigants was more common many decades ago.

Re: Doors with inside detail
I have used the "Elmer's Glue trick" before. Note that I have had better luck with the 'School Glue" than with regular Elmer's white glue. Why this is, and what the difference is, I don't know.
