C an ad a T h istles Oregon City, Ore., July 8, 1919. O. L. Stranghan, Estacada, Oregon. Dear Sir: The time of year has arrived when it in necessary to keen d o s e watch on the various |*utches of Canada Th istles in the county to see that they are not allowed to go to seed. At a recent conference with tlie County Court and the District Attorney it was decided to carry out the provisions of the law which pro vide a line of not less than $ 25 .00 for allowing the Canada Thistle to go to send, it is necessary in order to ob tain convictions under the law that the own er or tenant of the land so Infested shall have kno wledge of the fact that the thistles are on his land. Accordingly, Jf you will send me a list of all the owners of land on which Canada Thistle is gro wi ng, which you know about, being careful to give the name and address of either the o w n e r or the tenant and as near as possible the location of the thistles, I will write each man a letter, notifying him to keep the thistles cut down. F o l l o w i n g this, I count on you to advise me If any of the thistles are allowed to bloom. It will be well to have several witnesses to this fact. In that event I will have the District Attorney bring an action at law to collect the fine. In all probability It will not be n e cessary to Involve the law when the* owners of the thistles are warned beforehand, but in case any man allows them to go to seed, it is planned to make an e xample of him. This work has been endorsed by the Karin bureau. The Canada Thistle must not be allowed to go to seed. Hoping that with your co-opera tion we may keep this bad weed in check, I am, Yours truly, It.

The flavor is most delicious, tes tifying to the honey making qualities of the wild flowers in this section of the country. We recall a man in Minnesota show ing several kinds of honey made from white clover, basswood hiossoms, goldenrod, wild mus tard and buckwheat. Each one could be clearly distinguish* 1 by appearance and taste. For years we could not eat honey, as it caused severe indigestion, until we were told to drink milk with it. We tried the remedy and found it efficacious. We won dered if this was not one reason w hy the words milk and honey are couplet! together, as for in stance, “a land flow ing with milk and honey."
