C,n,al, Th,stles Tn. Law.

We hear frequent complaints made
that the law To protect against the
spread of Canada thistles is utterly ig-
nored. not only by the owners of lands
ON which they may be growing, but by
the overseers of highways, whose duty
il is To see 10 il that these pests are not
allowed To grow and ripen and spread
unmolested This, il is claimed, is es-
pecially true in some portions of the
township of Waverly, and is presuma-
bly, So ia other localities. The law Is
plain, mandatory, emphatic. We make
two or three extracts: IF any owner,
possessor or occupier of land shall,
knowingly, suffer any such Canada
thiStles to grow thereon, and the seed
To ripen, he shall, on conviction, be
liable to "A fine of ten dollars for every
such offence" at shall he the
duty of the overseer of highways to see
that the provisions of this act shall he
carried ont within their respective DIS
tricts." The Overseer shall notify the
owner of the land on which thistles are
growing, and if the owner neglects or
refuses to cut them down within live
DAYS after such notice, then IL Is the
duty of the oVerseer To cut or cause
them To be cut, keeping an account OF
the expense incurred in SO doing, and
present his bill To the township board
which shall audit and pay the same.
The supervisor shall cause all such eX-
pendtureS to be levied on the lands
described by the overseer of highways,
which shall be collected i'm the same
manner rs delinquent highway taxes
are collected When collected, the
monies shall be returned To the town
ship treasury Every overseer of high
ways who shall refuse or neglect TO dis
charge the duties imposed on him by
the provisions of this act shall be liable
to fine of twenty-five dollars" Any
person selling any grass or other seeds
among which there is any seed of the
Canada thistle, shall be liable to Il fine
of twenty'dollarS.
Let the overseers of highways execute
the law 10 the rery letter and the Canada
thistle will soon be among the things of
the past.
