Canadian Thistles Canadian Thistles are fast becom ing one of the worst weed pests on the Washington County farms, and unless something is done to stop 'their spread or hold them in check, large areas, as in some of the East ern States, will be abandoned as far as farming is concerned and turned over to the thistles. There are now areas which are so thickly seeded that only 50 per cent crops are ob tained. The reason for the seriousness of this weed and at the same time the cause for its difficult eradication, is that the plant not only spreads by seed, but also bears "creeping un derground stems which being nour ished by the stem and leaves above ground sometimes travels for long distance beneath the surface and sends up new plants at intervals as they go." , Treatment For Large Areas Where very abundant and over a large area the thistles can proba- Zane Grey's New Story "The Mvsterious RMer." a tale of those thrilling old days when Colorado was the frontier and men rode hard and fought quickly and loved fiercely, is Zane Grey's greatest novel.

H. JOHNSON, Special Agent, Standard Oil Co., BEAVERTON, OREGON bly be best controlled by the bare fallow method. Ferd Groner and Thos. Carmichael have found this method very satisfactory. Mr. Car michael states that he eradicated the thistles in one season but had to keep continually at it. Plow the land as the thistles are about to bloom, just deeply enough to turn over the root mat. The land should then be har rowed, preferably with, a spring-: tooth, care being taken not to drag the root to uninfested areas. Culti vation must then be continued throu ghout the growing season. Usually it is a good plan to follow .with a heavy smother crop, as oats and vetch. This crop may be harvested early, the ground plowed, and plant ed the second season to a cultivated crop. This crop should be cleanly cul tivated never allowing the thistles tc appear. Treatment For Small Patches Small patches may be eradicated by grubbing, thus gradually -exhausting the stored food supply in the rots, and killing tne plant. Spraying the cut portion of the plant with a v concentrated salt solution, sodium ar senate or gasoline, are other methods that are in useT Covering with tarred paper is also a method that is used for small areas.
