It would seem safe to say that no
weed is more harmful at the present
time to the agriculture of the North
western states than the Russion thistle.
It harms the crop by crowding it in
some instances to such an extent as to
render it not worth harvesting. Its
presence also adds greatly to the labor
of harvesting, especially when the
gorwth mado has been strong. It also
gives much trouble in summer-fallowed
lands and cultivated crops by the strong
and rapid growth whith the plants moke
on these in the latter part of the grow
ing season.
The farmer is in a sense defenseless
againsc invasion from this plant. That
is oue of its wont features. It is al
most impossible to feuce against it,
owing the the easo with which it is
carried with the wind. Our demon
stration farm at Elgin, N. 13., is Bur
rounded with a woven wire fence. The
fence is five feet high. In the summer
of 1912 a part of the land inside was
Bummerfallowed and keep quite clean.
At this date (April 27th) the young
Russian thistles arc abundant on this
land and are from one to two inche
high. These come from the seed that
was scattered during the winter. More
than once during tho winter did the
thistles pile up outside of the fence
until they, along with the snow that
drifted in, formed an inclined plane as
high as the fence over which the thist
les that came later rolled with ease,
scattering seeds as they went. In
other instances the dried thistles would
be caught up into the air by gusts of
wind and carried right over the fence
without touching it. Tho most regret
ful feature is, that the land which may
be ever so clean by the farmer one
season may be re-6eeded again with
thistles before any crop is planted on
it the next season. Until tho farmers
make common causo therefore against
this weed it will not be exterminated.
What then can be done! The best
that can be done at present is to man-
ago the newly sown grain bo that the
thistles may be prevented from doing
it any serious harm. This can only be
done by judicious use of the harrow
and weeder on tho groin crops until
after the .grain has reached the stage
whon it will overshadow any thistles
that may germinate later. In dry
seasons, especially the thistles will be
greatly harmful to the grain unless
they are in some way checked.
How is their growth to be checked
in tho grain? By the judicious UBe of
tho harrow and weeder. The harrow
alono may suffice. Tho same is true
of the weeder. But usually the two in
combination will give better resudts
than either alone. The preceduro in
many instances will bo in outlined as
follows: First, tho harrow should bo
run over the ground as Boon as the
grain begins to appear, giving Hie
tooth a backward slant during the op
eration. ThiB will stir the entire sur
face of the ground and will destroy
the thistles that aro just starting.
Second, when the grain is 2 to 3 inches
high the weeder will lie used instead of
the harrow to avoid burjing tho grain.
Third, uso the harrow again when tho
grain is 3 to 6 inches high. Tho idol
is to prevent the thistles from gotting
a Btnrt until tho grain will overshadow
them. In somo instances tho abovo
procedure for various reasons must be
modified.
Th3 thistles can also be prevented
from doing harm in alfalfa. On tho
Elgin demonstration farm tho disk was
run twico over the alfalfa crop on April
2Sth. The second time it was driven
across the rows. The disks cut fully
2 1-2 inches deep and stirred tho wholo
surface of the ground. The young
thistle just starting in myriads wero
thus uprooted. On May 1st the crop
was hurrowed. Before the weeds colno
on again the alfalfa plants that wore
practically unharmed by tho discing,
will overshadow the next growth of the
thistles. After tho first cutting of the
alfalfa the crop may be similiarly treat
ed. In this way tho thistles' may be
prevented from doing any harm in the
alfalfa except the firs t year that It is
Bown, The harm tho first year may be
minimized by the sowing of the crop
late rather than early.
The time to fight Russian thistles is
just when they are starting. If un
molested, in a short time the roots will
have such a hold that the harrow, the
woeder, the disk or tho cultivators will
not bo able to dislodge them.
The editors and others who are ad
vising farmers to encourage the growth
of Russian thistles to provide food for
live stock should be placed whore they
cannot do any more harm.

What is a good time for one is a dead
one for another.
Constipation Cured.
A domestic tragedy that had its in
spiration in a real life-happening is tho
theme of "Tho Unknown," which the
Victor company will release on May 9.
It tells tho story of William Onrdner,
who driven to desperation by tho fatal
illness and poverty of his wifo, coininits
a theft. Ho is sent to prison, and his
littlo girl is left to strangers. A rich
physician adopts her on condition that
the fathor will never reveal himself to
her. Tho child becomes tho plnymate
and eventually tho wifo of the doctor's
little son.
After many years, old and broken
from his prison experience, William
Gardner returns, and cannot resist the
desiro to hunt out his child. Ho finds
her tho happy mother of a beautiful
boy, but bIio does not know who Onrd
ner is. Securing employment as stable
man, the old man gains the affection
of the littlo boy. The doctor recog-
nrzes the old man, and is about to
turn him away, when the daughter
leiinis the truo relationship, and suc
cessfully intercedes for her father. It

Ramona Langley, a native daughter
of California, who recently graced "A

Conway Campbell, of the Bison com

of young standard bred horseflesh In a
gnmi-wild Btato. Ab a result of trying
to teach tho wild equines horse eti-
rpiettn, several of the cow-punchers have
been taking a few dayi "off."
Evelyn Quick, who was for a while
a memlier or tho ivoystene company,
with Fred Maco and Ford Sterling, is
now the enthusiastic leading lady in
Powers comedies. Miss Quick is com
paratively a new perosn in moving
pictures, but her beauty anil talent
havo already won her high esteem.
