The lightship, one ot tne most important iignts pi ine transatlantic service, bad a crew or 16 men. s Acreage contracted to the sec retary of agriculture by those signing wheat contracts offers an opportunity for weed control, and with some kinds of weeds, eraa- lcatlon on those fields taken out ff production. Terms of the con tract call for weed control ana the inspection of farms will also include compliance in respect to weeds on the contracted acres. One of the methods ot weed control is complete cultivation. Canada thistle and quack grass can be largely, if not completely, eradicated by this method. Care should be exercised in keeping all foliage turned under or cut oft during the summer in warm weather. It the. weeds are left until a good growtti is made, then cut, raked and burned, the roots are weakened and it plowing fol lows this operation, turning the roots up to the sun, a good kill will result. Discing or spring tooth harrowing when regrowth appears, to keep all foliage off, will starve the roots. Control of quack grass is sim ilar. Pasturing until hot weather is possible with this weed, which Has tne same eiiect as cutting, due it also tends to make the root sys tem shallow. The land should be plowed Just deep enough to get under the roots and turned up to the sun and left in the furrow slice to dry out. As soon as the grass begins to grow aeain, the land should be disced. .The next cultivation should be with spring tooth harrow to bring the roots uo to the surface where they are exposed to toe sun io ury out. Raking and burning the roots when they are dry will in crease the kill. This cultivation will also control the annual weeds, such as mustard, bull thistle, French weed, etc. Morning glory can also be kept nnder control but care is essential in keeping all fol- slage cut a with Canada. tntstie.
