Meth of the United States Geological Survey. ods of preparation and use, with nece“earv restrictions and cautions, are set forth by Professor H. D. Scudder, argonomist of tbe Oregon Agricultural The College, somewhat as follows: especial value of this spray in the destruction of weeds is due to the fact that it may be applied in such a way as to kill the weeds while they are growing in the grass or grain crops. As iron sulphate is a powerful salt its actions are similar to that of an alkali in tbe soil, drying the leave%np, turning them brown and causing them to die. It will not destroy grains or grasses because of its limited area of action on their narrow, linea- leaves Used as a sprav, iron sulphate has been thoroughly tested by experiment stations as well as by manufacturers of the sulphate. If pre pared properly and applied in the right way at the rtght time it will dietroy dandelion, wild carroty bull thistle, pepper grass, wild daiev, shepherd's puree, pig weed. iambs quarters, mustard, yarrow and sorrel. If used to destroy dandelions on lawns it will injure tbe white clover. Nor can the spray safely be used on weeds growing in any broad leaved crop as it will dietroy both crop and weeds. To be most effective the spray should be applied during dry, sunny weather, for if the weeds are washed by rain within three days, the salt will not kill them, it should be ap plied with a sprayer which will deliver the spray forcibly in a fine mist, so that tbe weeds may be covered as completely Mark Emery and Fred Straup who 1 have been working at Bull Run. spent as possible, The spraying should be Sunday at the formers home. done on a quiet day and should be weeds just before Gresham School will not open nnfll applied to all blossoming.

Make home so pleasant for yonr boys that they will hold it dearer than any other spot. Give them "the freedom of the bouse," as far as possible. While insisting that they be neat and orderly, don’t be what boys call “fussy." Let them use the furniture and the books, for use is what hooks and furniture are made for. Have plenty of gxxl books at hand: also games, puzzles and other things, both instructive and amusing. If possi ' ble, let your boys haven "den" of some : kind for their very own. Encourage them to invite their young friends to the house. Tbe boy who feels at I liberty to bring home his mates now and then, after school, or to "ask them over" for a social evening occasionally, have no necessity to seek companions in tbe streets. Don’t frown down "fads." Let the | boy collect things if he wishes to. Don’t I term hie precious collections "rubbish" | or ‘'litter," and don’t complain that they "gather so much dust.” A better way is to insist that he shall, bimself, keep his treasures in good order. Re member that each fad has an influence I on the boy’s body, mind or soul. 8ucb fade as collecting shells, flowers | or rocks and minerals, take the boy out into the open air and strengthen him physically. They bring him into i cloee relation with Nature’s myriad and wonderful beauties. They bring bim ! nearer to God and develop and refine hie soul. Other fads, such as poet cards, stamp and coin collecting, quicken hie mental perceptions and are wonderful educa tional aids. Indeed, almost any harm less fad is a very good thing for a boy. It will serve to keep both hands and mind occupied, and it is as true that Satan finds some mischief for idle mind to do, as it is true that he finds it for idle bands.
