Weeds and How to Combat Them By C. V. GREGORY, Agricultural Til-i)l-ilon, ouia Stat Colltjft CooyrUht, I9O0, by American PrtM Auoelatlon N attempting to produce large crops the farmer And that tie has many eriemle working against ulm. Among the worst of these are weeds. One of the (neat est problem that confront the farm er is that of keeping: hi crops free from these pests. After a field bas been so handled and prepared that a large amount of plant food is In avnlla; bio form, with plenty of niolsture to dissolve It, It is poor policy to allow weeds to seize this food and moisture and convert them Into a worthless product. Weeds may be divided Into three general classes annuals, biennials and perennials. Annual weeds are proro gated entirely by needs snd live but one year. An exception to this Is found In the winter annuals, which come up In the fall', live through the winter as small plants and produce seed tbe following spring. Among tbe most troublesome annual weeds are the foxtails. These are grasallke plants that are too common to need any special description. The fuct that makes them so difficult to beads appear will not kill the plant, but If kept up throughout the season will prevent It from producing seed. Id bad cases about the only remedy Is to plow np the field and put' It In to some cultivated crop. Where a regn lar rotation which Included the mend ows and pastures Is followed this weed can be readily kept In check point that must be carefully attended to In preventing tbe spreud of this s well as of any other weed la to keep tbe roadsides and fence corners from raising weed seed enough each year to keep the entire farm seeded. Another troublesome annual In some sections of tbe country Is tbe Russian thistle, a form of tumbleweed. By rolling across the fields after It ripens It scatters Its numerous seeds very widely. These weeds are usually not so plentiful but that they can be easily destroyed by pulling before they form seed. By doing this they may be kept from becoming thick enough to do any tenons damage. Biennial weeds live through tbe first winter and produce seed the second year of their life. They die aa soon as tbe seed Is ripe. Tbe common bull snd prairie thistle and burdock are con spicuous examples of this class of weeds. Biennials are not difficult to subdue. In cultivated fields tby sel dom live long enough to produce seed. They seed so late that they hardly ever ripen seed In meadows. In per manent pastures they may be con trolled by cutting off below the sur face of the ground just at tbe begin ning of blossoming time. Sheep and goats will rid a pasture of these and all other troublesome weeds. Tbe boniest class of weeds to eom- at are the perennials. These do not depend entirely upon seed production to spread themselves, but are propa gated by means of underground stems. Tbee sterna extend along be neath the surface of tbe ground, send ing up atalks at short distances. They live in tbe sod from year to year, send lug up fresh shoots every spring. Some of tbe most common and trou blesome perennials are the Canada thistle, morning glory, wild artichoke, milkweed and quack grass. These weeds are fonnd on all parts of tbe farm In cultivated fields. In small grain and In meadows and pastures. Tbe only way to kill them Is to de stroy the roots or starve them by pre venting leaf growth. This la much more easily said than done. Where the weeds occur only in small patches the desired result may be accomplished by covering them with a thick layer of straw. In a dry season thorough cultivation will discourage them. though It will seldom exterminate them entirely. When the ground is wet cultivation will do more to spread perennial weeds than to kill them. Tbe pieces of the underground stems which stick to the shovels will grow wherever they happen to fall and thus start a new center of trouble. Of all the means of getting rid of perennial weeds that have been tried none is so effective as turning the field into a bog pasture.

It la not difficult to kill one formal plant, but no sooner la that done than another springs up to taka Its place. Early fall plowing gets rid of many of these weeds by turulug them un der before the seed Is ripe. Some of the seed which Is ripe will grow up. and th plants will be killed by the first freezes of winter. If tbe field It harrowed early In the spring many of the remaining aeed can be Induced to start Tbe more weeds that come up at this time tbe better, since they will be killed In tbe subsequent prepara tion of the land for planting. There la no better Implement for killing weeds before corn cornea np than the harrow, narrowing la a cheap operation, since so many acres can be gone over In a day. The more times a cornfield can be cone over with the barrow before the corn comes up tbe better. In harrowing to kill weeds care should be taken not to do the work when the weather la cloudv or the ground too wet, or tbe weeds will be transplanted rather than killed.

It Is a waste of time to test the seed and planter with the Idea of gettlpg a good stand and then harrow part of It out Unless the weeds are very bad the harrow had better be put away In tbe machine shed as soon as the corn begins to appear above the surface of the ground. Thorough cultivation from the time the corn Is two or three inches high until It Is ready to "lay by" will do much to keep the weeds In check. The deep early cultivations will bring up the seeds that have been lying dor ruWit at the bottom of the furrow slice. These will germinate and be killed by the later cultivations. Fox tull may grow up aud go to seed after the crop gets too large to cultivate. It Is often a good plan to sow rape In corn at the last cultivation. This will come up quickly and shade the ground so completely that It will prevent tbe growth of annual weeds almost en tirely. WANTED THEM SAVED. Lincoln Stuck to His Saltation of a Hospital.

One annual that la sometimes troublesome in gralnflelds is mustard. Since this weed Is easily killed by cultivation it seldom goes to seed In cornfields. Consequently when small grain follows corn there Is little mustard seed In the soli except thut which Is sown with the oats. There Is another annual, or rather winter annual, that Is much harder to eradicate than those mentioned so far. This Is squtrreltnll grass, so called be cause of Its fuzzy heads. The seeds are very Ihtit and are attached to long beards, which cause them to be carried for considerable distances by tno wind. Sqnlrreltall grass Is not troublesome In cultivated fields, but often In fests meadows and pastures to such en extent as to make them almost worthless.

The remedy for weeds Is good farming. nnd when good fanning becomes the rule weeds will largely dlsnppenr. In a way weeds are more of a benefit than an Injury. If It were not for them we would often be tempted to let the cornfield go a few days longer before cultivating and thus fall to get as large n crop is we might otherwise have done. It Is the cultivation tha the presence of the weeds forces upon us that makes plant food available and prevents the escape of cnptllnry moisture nnd so enables the plants to put their best efforts Into producing a maximum yield.

"An ostrich can kick a mule to death, but its kicks are delivered at an angle of 45 degrees. Within those 45 degrees, right abaft the "pope's nose' of the bird, there is absolute safety.' On the ostrich farms of California, when the herds are being driven, you will always see the ostrich boys holding on to the tails of bad kickers.
