The Canadian Thistle Pest.
MCKEE Wash. July 80, l!

MCKEE Wash, July 81, 1900.
EDITOR HERALD: The writer's atten.
ton has been called on several occasions
to the rapid strides that that noxious of
all weeds. the Canadian thistle, is now
making in the lower Mckee valley. This
season more than double the land has
grown up to this weed and it seems to
me that unless action is taken very soon
to stamp it out there is only question OF
few years when it will have taken the
entire valley. Some of the places about
Riverside school house and the lane
running south and parallel with the river
abound with the thistle and, as farmer
and taxpayer, l protest against the weed
being allowed to go to seed, for it will
sooner or later reach every farm in the
valley and anyone who has ever he'd any
expert ence with the pest knows what it
means. II there is law which compels
farmers to clean their farms by chopping
it out it ought TO be enforced, and the
road supervisor ought to see that it is
not allowed 10 grow ana propagate Oy
the wayside. SUBSCRIBER.
Where the pros cribed thistes grow
upon private property the road super
visors have be en- instructed, and it is
their duty, to notify the owners OF the
land to eradicate the same and if they
fail to make proper effort to comply with
the law the road supervisors are author
lied to have the work done and the ex.
pense for the same becomes lien against
the land. The owner of the land is also
subject to fine for misdemeanor. Should
the road supervisor fail to attend to his
duty in this respect complaint should
be made to the county commissioners
and his removal will follow if the charges
are sustained ED. HERALD.
