WEED MAPS IN SCHOOLS.

From The Youth ) toHpdiH"n'
Tho Germans have some educational IDEAS whicn We
I'm this country have borrowed with profit and there
are sill Others which might be wise 10 adopt:
Among them. doubt, are the wall maps OF dinerent
specle OF peseros weeds which hang in the school
rooms where the children can see them as long as they
10 school. . ,,,, -, A.,
A practical idea underlies the displaying OF these
mnps II Is well known that farmers are prone 10
treat all weeds alike. and hardly Ia observe any diff
ference between them whereas the natures OF weeds
differ as much the natures Of any other plants do.
and the sort OF treatment which will cNtermnate one
will sometimes Increase and multiply another.
II Is important, therefore. that the farmer AMI
gardener should understand the weeds which they
trying TO eXtermiraie.
II is here that these German wall-maps come in.
They show colorcd pictures OF the most pestiferos
weeds IN all stages of growth. and also the In
which they scatter their seeds ami propagate them
selves. BY learning them thoroughly, through seeing
them dav by day the walls, the child grows up
with a knowledge Of the best way TO extermnate
them.
II has been proposed that our agricultural societies
offer prizes for the he { labelled collection Of weeds
not for the purpose of encouraging their cultivation
hut In order extend n knowledge OF them and thus
cont ibute TO their determination.
