"Unclean seed has more to do with the distribution of weeds than all other causes combined" says Professor Tou- mey in hIs remarks upon "How weeds get on our farms" Tn Bulletin 22 of the Arizona Agricultural Experiment Sta ton. These are brougAt upon our farms Tn garden and field seeds from foreign countries. Russian flax seed is responsible for the introduction of the Russian thistle which first appear ed upon a single farm and now covers over forty thousand square miles in the United States. Alfalfa. beet, tur- mp ana other field and garden seeds imported from Europe are the potent cause for the contamination of lands with farm weeds. Nor are the farmers of this country at all particular in sav- in! their seeds; fields containing weeds often being set aside for seed crops, Insnrlng the fouIest seeds in many cases. And then in the purchase of seeds the farmer is not careful to buy pure seed only but plants whatever the dealer offers him.. Until these methods are done away with We must expect to have new pernicious weeds constantly appearing among our crops. The bull leln contains many valuable sugges- tions and those interested should ap ply to the Director of the Experiment Station, Tucson, Arizona, for a copy, which will be sent gratis.
