think the best way for making a
trellls for supporting blackberries is to
have a stout post at each end of the
tween the posts for the blackberries
TO grow upon. At distance of fifteen
to twenty feet the wires should be tied
together with string. and where the
rows are very long perhaps an coca

VITALITY OF WEED SEED.

That one seasons careful and clean
cultivation Will not eradicate all of the
weeds Is due TO the fact that many OF
them will lie dormant In the soil for
many months. simply waiting to be
thrown near the surface, where they
Will be exposed to sufficient air and
warmth TO terminate. Several years
ago the North Dakota experiment sta
ton conducted series of experiments
with n view to ascertaining the vitality
OF a number OF weed seeds when left
In the soil. 1t was found that some
Wild oats would grow after having
been buried twenty months. but were
all dead after fifty-six months. Some
OF the mustard and French weed seeds
grew after having been buried for
fifty-six months. In this connection IL
should be remembered that frequent
civilizations during single season
usually terminate most OF the weed
seeds In the soil

There is no doubt but what the
third election would bring out the re-

those who did not vote in the two
previous elections did so because
they would not take the time to go
to the polls and not because they
were opposed to the bond issue.
With this situation the commits
sioners feel that they should give the
voters still another chance before de-
Gliding upon a double taxation, and
The News predicts that the third
bond election will soon be called.
