The eternal war with weeds which
the farmers of Wapello county must
in few weeks take UP and fight all
summer long is one subject that is
worth much consideration. A prom
inent farmer of Wapello county speak
ing upon this matter OF getting rid OF
weeds has the following to say:
at is much easier to kill weeds be-
fore the crop is planted then after
ward. and few days delay in planting
to permit of an extra harrowings of
the land often will pay in the saving
of the labor in cultivation and always
will pay in the better grown crop on
the well fitted land
''For many years we have been u.s.
ing the harrow on our corn fields, a
few days after planting, always prefer
ring to have a rainfall between plant
ing and narrowing if possible. When
the corn is up another narrowing, u.s.
ing light harrow, will do more toward
keeping clean field than any other
work we can do. The best time to kill
weed is just after the seed has ger
minated and for this if for no other
reason, SOOu ldi LuSl dlW aSo aufoSatC
frequent cultivation. Many weeds are
so tender when they are sprouting that
it is an easy matter to kill them, but
let them get into the rough leaf
sending their roots deep into the soil,
and they are very hard to get rid of.
1.-THE advocates of a shallow system
of breaking have strong point in
their favor when they claim for it that
weeds are much easier to exterminate
under shallow than deep system of
blowing. Weed seeds turned under
six or eight inches deep are not at all
apt to terminate in one crop season
and as they have great vitality they
will lay until another blowing brings
them nearer the surface. On the other
hand, such seeds turned under four
inches will nearly all grow the first
season, to be killed out during the
cultivation of the crop. When the
writer was small boy he helped his
father pull cookie burrs in the corn
many a day, and we prosecuted the
work so diligently that have not seen
cookie burr on the farm in over thir-
ty years. Some weeds seem to be pc
riodical in their appearance, but | am
inclined TO believe that good crop is
determined by the weather conditions
of late summer and fall II wet wealth
er prevails this season, we may look
for weeds the next season.

When A. w. Lee, publisher of the
ottumWa Courier, sent Paul E. Faust
down to Davenport to take charge of
the advertising department of the Da-
venport Times, he wrote an editorial
in the Courier in which he asserted
that Faust was one man whom he
believed could carry a message to
Garcia.
A few years previous to this tow
headed youth, fresh from the Iowa
State University. appearedin Ottumwa
one day, and gaining an audience with
Mr.. Lee, assured him that he, the
aforesaid tow-head, was just the prop
osition that Mr.. Lee had been looking
for. Mr.. Lee replied that his caller
was alone in his conviction. Not
abashed the youth proposed that a
place should be made for him, but Mr..
Lee declared his inability to think of a
place. The youth then made request
for bicycle and authority to go out
in the rural districts and solicit sub
scriptions. At the end of the first day
he sent in something like $40, besides
deducting current expense money. The
next day he sent in an equal amount,
and at the end of the week he had
made a record in subscriptions that
opened the eyes of the well-known
publisher of Ottumwa. This lasted for
several weeks, and then Mr.. Lee de-
cided he was too good man to have
out in the country, and so he put him
on Main street. Ottumwa, soliciting adj
vertisements for the Courier. When he
left If was to go for Mr. Lee to his then
newly purchased paper, the Davenport
Times.
A little over four years ago Mr..
Faust became attached to the Mahin
Advertising Company, Chicago, and
won his way by steady stages as a
general agency solicitor to position

where he had the respect and regard
OF every progressive and intelligent
man In the business. His particular
held was the west and northwest, his
Old state seeming to have the greatest
attraction for him. In this field he
had developed a nice line of business,
and he had sort of made his "headquar-
tiers" at Des Moines.
Meantime things had been happen
ing out there. The Register, the old
wheel-horse of Iowa journalism, and
the Leader, one of the most progress

The publishers in recognizing the

Leader, were seeking for a man who
had the experience, the initiative, char

advertising department. develop the
field and divert a fair share of adver-

ment made by the Register and Leader
a few weeks ago, which stated that
they had secured Paul E. Faust, of
Chicago, to become the advertising
manager of the Daily and Sunday Des
Moines Register and Leader and the
Weekly Iowa State Register. We do
not know just what inducements the
Register and Leader held out to Mr..
Faust to secure his services-we pre-
sumo they must have been interesting.
In any event no one will question but
that the Chicago advertising fraternity
have suffered distinct loss in his de-
parture from this field, and Judicious
Advertising predicts that the influence
he will WELD in the high position he
now occupies will not be measured by
any presidents. We congratulate both
the Register and Leader and Mr.. Faust.

RYAN TO GO TO ST. LOUIS.
THURMAN Charged With Larceny Sells
His Horses Today.

A dispatch from New York last night
says After an all-day conference between
his counsel and representatives of the cir
cult attorneys office at st. Louis. John j.
Ryan, the turfman, who was arrested at
Brighton Beach race track yesterday after
neon on a charge of grand larceny to tho
amount of $500 600. today consented to re-
turn to st. Louis in custody without further
protest.
Ryan had been released on bail last night,
and presented himself at the office of the
district attorney here early today. In the
meantime, however, his attorneys had pre-
pared to resist the St. Louis officers. They
cCntended that Ryan already had been put
in jeopardy on the same charge; that no
was not the person described In the COM
plant. and that he would be subjected to
great financial loss and inconvenience IL
forced to leave New York al this time.
The attorneys explained that Ryan had
arranged to sell his horses here tomorrow.
and that he desired to be present at tho
sale. In view of these conditions, they de-
clared that in event of the st. Louis officers
moving for immediate action they would
ask for a writ of habefs corpus for the re-
lease of their client from custody. On the
