The Somerset reporter. [volume] (Skowhegan, Me.) 1868-1909, 1905-10-12
Somerset Pomona at Athens.


The regular meeting of the Somerset
Grange was held with the grange of
Athens, Tuesday, and a very interesting
and instructive session it proved to be
There was an attendance of over 300
patrons from all sections of the county,
including State Lecturer Thompson
who was one of the speakers.
The principal subject for discussion
was: "What Weeds Have Given the
Most Trouble During the Past Season
and What Is the Best Method for Over
coming Them?' This was opened by
the Worthy Overseer Henry Choate,
who described briefly and in an inter
esting manner some of the 900 varieties
in the state, giving considerable tim to
the Is new varieties that have lately ap.
peared He was followed by Brothers
Fogg, P. d. Falley, K. W. Ellis, George
Walker, Eugene Danforth and CALVIN
Jones.
Much valuable information was
brought out in the remarks. The gen.
eral opinion seemed to be that witch
grass, although not exactly weed,
caused the greatest amount of trouble
for the farmers. Others mentioned
most frequently were kale , and the
orange hawkweed, The best method of
overcoming them was thought to be
deep blowing, constant cultivation and
eternal vigilance.
State Lecturer Thompson discussed
matters of general interest to the grange
and particularly the culture of potatoes.
He told of his success with this crop
during the past season, having raise d
$50 bushels on eome of his acres. He
considered constant cultivation accord.
ing TO the latest methods to be necessary
To attain such success His address was
especially interesting aud instructive.
Another very interesting address was
that of Rev. Mr. March of Athens who
