The dandelion isau old world flower,
oot native in America, aave fnr to the
north and on some of tbe highest of
oar western mountains. But somehow
it was brought here, perhaps from Eng
land, iu old oolonial timea. Now we sea
its golden heads and feathery balls at
every grassy roadside, tbe "clocks" the
boys and girls blow to tell the bonr. A
few years ago farmers in the northwest
found a new weed, • vile, prickly weed,
in their wbeatfields. In a very short
time this weed, the Russian thistle, has
spread over wide acres of the best farm
land in that part of the oountry and has
done great injury to the crops.
How do these plants spread so fast
and so far? They are not carried about
and planted. No one would be so to I-
ish as to sow Russian thistle«. Tbe
mother plant must have ways of her
own for sending her offspring abroad in
to ¡be world. Plants propagate them
selves iu tw j ways, from seed or from
buds. Sometimes these buds are borne
on slender runners. A strawberry plant,
afte- it haa blossomed, begins to send
out such ruuners, with buda, nn(olding
tufts of leaves, nlong them These tufts
are at flrst connected with tbe parcut
plant, but later tbe runners between
break away, and each tuft becomes a
new plant. Many grasses, like Bermuda
grass and the troublesome quick or couch
grass, have creeping stem«, each joint
sending out a bunch of roots below f nd
bud on the upper aids. If you try to non
up such grasses, you only make matters
worso, for each join* when out off is
ready to form an independent plant
Such grasses spread very fast and soon
take possession of tbs land they got
into.—Thomas H. Kearney, Jr., in ¿ t
