AAAesy SAPSS1 w 1lIlu IlllSIlcS Ill large
quantities, may be said to be proceeding
south and westward from Walsh and
Pembina counties at a rate equal to
five miles per year. The sow thistle is
yet found only in comparatively small
patches, it being an introduced weed,
but it is spreading with much greater
rapidity than the Canada thistle. The
quack grass is of such vigor and vitality
OF growth that it can probably crowd
out either one of these other two
weeds. have never seen a good crop
oswheat on any ground which was
occupied by quack grass. When this
grass is present about the only crop
that can be grown is a crop that is
cultivated two or three times each
week, such as corn or potatoes, and it
will be found difficult to get quick
enough growth of these in spring to
get ahead of the quack grass. This
grass looks very much like our native
western wheat grass, and thus the
farmers are allowing it to come in with
great rapidity without knowing it's
destructive power. The seed looks
very much like the seed of bronze grass,
slender wheat grass, or that of meadow
fescue so that the farmer may readily
buy large quantities of it with other
agricultural grass seed. This type of
grass seed is also light and, as it stays
in the head until late, is easily scattered
by the winter winds and drifting SHOWS.
! have seen the seeds of each Of these
three noxious weeds in grass seeds
which have been sold to farmers for
seeding purposes. Many of our
farmers in the state do not know the
seeds Of either of these weeds, and
many of them do know the weeds but
make very little effort to fight the
small patches of these noxious weeds
that are now appearing on their farms.
It is evident that the time will come
when these weeds will cause the
farmers of this state great expense to
combat unless some concerned action
can soon te taken to destroy the small
patches which are now developing and
to keep the larger areas under proper
control.
This article is written for the purpose
of calling attention to this matter. 1t
islyell worth the consideration of the
people OF the state. whether or not
some organized attempt be made to
protect the uncontaminated farms
which at present consist of most of the
vast area of North Dakota. Is it wise
to allow a few careless farmers to
jeopardize the farming interests of the
many? Is it wise to allow careless or
Indifferent seedsmen or otherwise, to-
defraud the farming public?
Although noxious weed laws have not
usually proven very effective, it is
possible that a properly framed law,
properly enforced, associated with a
concerted educational effort might save
many millions of dollars to the agri-
culture of this state. A seed inspec-
tion law which would tend to prevent
the sale of contaminated garden and
agricultural seeds, might also aid in
this matter, and help to keep out of
the state many other weeds of not much
less destructive powers. A proper
agricultural seed inspection should
also raise the standard of variety and
viable quality of such farm seeds.

rest of the plant, new plants sprout up
from the buds or joints just as potato
sprouts arise from the eyes of the cut
pieces of tuber. This feature allows
the plant to thrive best under ordinary
methods of farm cropping. The plows,
harrows and drills simply break up the
jointed root-stocks or underground
stems and scatter them about over the
field, rapidly spreading the weeds to
other parts. The food materials in
them allow these underground stems to
stand drying for a period of time, and
when the buds start, serve to give the
young weeds vigorous growth. Such
weeds can for this reason outgrow any
ordinary crop which has to start from
the seed. The soil is soon thoroughly
matted with their roots and under
ground stems which form thick felt
from which ordinary cultivated plants
are able to draw very little nourishment.
The seeds Of the Canada thistle and
SOW thistle are furnished with downy
hairs which act like the parachutes of
the dandelion and the seeds are borne
about by the slightest breezes to
distant parts. It has only been few
years since the first Canada thistles
were observed in the northeastern
counties Of the state. Now there are,
small patches Of them to be found in
almost every county Of the state. I

The germ Hives only in the skin. and multi

Nature combats them, buO if the skin is weak
the germs must be destroyed by an external

Raleigh Times-Wednesday after
noon at the Washington School the
colored teachers presented to Prof. E.
p. Moses a go1d-headed cane in ap-
probation of his faithful and efficient
services as superintendent of the city
schools.
Raleigh News and Observer-A story
of romantic interest is that of the elope-
ment and marriage this week of Miss
Pauline Young, the 1~9-year-old daugh-
ter of Mr.. Chas. w. Young. of SIS East
Polk street, and Mr.. Norfeet Stronach,

S. Herndon, who was the representa-
tive of the Imperial Tobacco Company
on the Warsaw market, last season, re-
gret to learn that he suffered a stroke
of paralysis sometime ago and after
lingering for a few days death relieved
his sufferings.
Charlotte News-Spartanburg is
building for herself an excellent sys-
tenn of streets. Representatives from
Columbia have Just been in that city
and thought the streets there fine. It
might pay Charlotte to send represen-
~tatives to some place where they have
real Streets:
Snow Hill Laconic-Several of our
citizens went down to see the blowing
up of stumps on Hines Brothers right
of-way last week. The laugh is on one
of our friends for his unseemly
haste in avoiding a flying piece of
stump.
Mt. Olive Tribune-Mount Olive will
market this season close to forty thous-
and crates of strawberries. Up to Tues
day night 36,S61 crates had been ship
ped, and including yesterdays ship
ments the total reached about 81, $50
crates. Last year the total crop amount
ed to about SO, 900 crates, so it will be
seen that there is only a shortage this
year of about 10, 900 rates
Durham Sun-At the meeting Of the
merchants last night, it was decided to
do all they can to fix and reduce the
freight rates, to and from this city. This
matter has been one of long standing
and the papers,, through the state have
been doing their best for the merch-
ants. The freight rates IN this state
have been too heavy, and in Durham
especially they have beer higher than
in other places.
Greensboro Record-It was CHROME.
ously stated in some papers that the
president of the Guilford Battle Ground
Company, Maj. Joseph M. Morehead,
was chairman of the committee that
escorted Speaker Cannon to the Battle
Ground Tuesday. The truth is, thanks
to the speaker, Major Morehead is
compelled 10 personally attend to a
great lea of work going on there, and
bodily labors, on occasion. He is hav-
ing two Monuments built now, and vas
on the battle ground before breakfast
Tuesday morning, helping unload gran
tie for the monuments. When the
speaker got there he found President
Morehead and his trusty friend, An
drew Joyner, with coats and collars off,
helping a lot of darkies lift some tre-
mendous granite blocks from the wag-
on to their place on the monument. AS
Dol as he could let go his "holt,' .
President Morehead wiped off the
sweat from his brow, put on his collar
and coat, and cordially received the

Spring and Summer Catarrh.

spring ana summer Cdtdfrn.
There is a form of catarrh especially
prevalent in spring and summer, called
by DIR. Hartman systemic catarrh.
This form Of catarrh especially de-
ranges the stomach, bowels and other
organs of the abdomen. The whole
mucous tract lining the stomach, liver,
bowels and kidneys is in an infamed
condition, and these organs fail to per-
form their proper function.
Systemic catarrh may be or may not
be accompanied by catarrh in other
parts of the body. In some cases there
is q hacking cough. It may be also as
ISOLATED with catarrh in the head.
But, in typical cases Of systemic ca
tarrh all the organs of the abdomen are
in q weakened and sluggish condition.
Dyspepsia and Billousness.
Sometimes 1t is called dyspepsia, at
other times biliousness, or the patient
may be suspected of having kidney dis
ease or appendicitis.
systemic catarrh presents symptoms
which resemble closely a great many
different diseases
