Laurens, Iowa. July 14.--Attorney
F. w. Paige, OF this place, finds time
occasionally to enter other fields OF
labor, and has lately taken up the
study Of plant life as found IN the
neighboring country.
Recently he was walking along the
railroad track sin quest of a new speci-
men, and was attracted by a patch OF
what afterwards proved to, be "quack
grass which, apparently had started
there by having the seeds scattered
from cattle trains which had come
from the "quack grass" country OF
South Dakota. Since then he has made
frequent trips into the country and has
found numerous patches along the
highway, which is causing consider
able comment and anxiety among the
farmers of this vicinity.
The experimental station at Ames
has been corresponded with as to the
best method Of Kidding the country Of
the plant. They have advised farmers
to pillow the ground frequently and
deep, being careful not to carry the
roots cut off to another part of the
field, thereby starting new patch.
It seems that there has been some
trouble caused by the "quack grass, .
heretofore, but farmers did not know
what 1t was and 1t did not appear in
sufficient quantities to cause any
alarm.

Mr. v. e. Strayer Of Fayette county,

Of graduating this grass. He describes
it as follows in Wallaces Farmer
Pillow the ground very shallow In

Of June, when the quack grass and
other weeds will have reached large
growth. Take three good horses and
a sixteen-inch walking pillow, and turn
the ground over blowing as deep as
possible, using a heavy log chain at
tached to the plow and whiffletree to
pull the growth Of vegetation into the
furrow, so that it will be completely
covered. Sow with buckwheat and
harrow lightly with slanting tooth
drag; harrow around the field, in the
same direction in which it was plowed,
so as not to uncover any of the vege-
tation that has been turned under or
bring any of the quack grass roots to
the surface. II the above treatment of
ground that is ttssaSted with quack
grass is carried out, little if any of the
weed will be left. and the crop of buck
wheat will more than pay for the trou-
BILE"
Quack grass has frequently been
recommended as soil binder, not only
where the soil is subject to washouts,
as in gulleys and bitches, but also on
railroad entertainments. The persistent
rootstocks make this grass an excellent
one for this purpose. II has been used
to advantage in parts Of Wisconsin for
this purpose where washouts are FREE
uuent. We believe there is no better
grass than quack grass as a soil bind
