ExTERMlNATING WILD OATS.

Wild oats is the worst weed we
have to contend with, writes a Mime
sofa correspondent in the Farmer, SO
i thought l would write my experience
in ridding myself of it, Three years
ago | rented farm which had large
amount of wild oats. sowed corn
about the fifteenth of May, but as it
was a cold spring the corn did not
grow very fast but the wild oats did
and by the time the corn was ready
for cultivation the oats formed a thick
mat. | plowed some of it under and
cultivated the best of the corn as well
as / could The next year | disked the
corn ground as soon as the frost was
out and let it lie until about the mid
die of May, when / plowed it good
and put 1t to corn again That was
the last I saw OF wild oats on that
piece of ground. think millet is tusr
as good or better than corn, as you
can SOW that as late as July.

OLD CANNON CAN'T BE BROKEN.
Armament of Old Craft Was Made to
Last.

A good story is being told at the
Mare Island navy yard concerning a
San Francisco contractor who bought
all the old obsolete cannon which were
sold at the local yard some time ago
The cannon were all of the smooth
bore kind, and in order that they
might be easily handled for shipment
to the city all sorts of schemes were
tried to endeavor to break them with
dynamite and blasting powder, but
they were unsuccessful.
An electric drill machine was even
set up at the yards and the cannon
were drilled fun of holes in order to
weaken them for breaking open with
wedges, but this was also unsuccess-
full The cannon were then taken
away and the last heard of them they
were corralled in the hills near Point
Richmond, where an effort was being
made to break them open with dyna-
mite again
The cannon which proved to be so
strong were among the armament of
the war craft which sailed the seas

Plank Road Drag Ready for Use.

any expense whatever. / attached
chain and put the clevis in link that
made the drag pull at an angle. | do
not always want it at the same angle,
as when moving new, soft dirt it must
be at a greater angle than when just
smoothing the roads. | can change the
angle some by my weight on the drag
while driving.
| plowed on each side of the road,
making a back furrow, beginning al
most at the travelled track. | put on
three horses and found it pulled them
hard enough, because the drag was
green and dirt soft. Anyone who has
not seen the drag work would be sur
prised to know how much dirt one
man can move. / have seen three
men and eight horses and a grader
costing $500 not moving any more
dirt than | can with one team and
drag that cost one-half days work. |
worked half day on a half mile of
road and laid it in pretty good condi-
ton. / then used the drag whenever
It was rough and rutty. | can go ovet
it once in 80 minutes and once is
usually enough.
When the road is once shaped up it
can be smoothed over after a rain be-
fore any work can be done in the field
and not a minutes time is lost SO far
as farming is concerned, as the water
all runs off and the road dries quickly.
/ find that the drag should be used
Immediately after a rain. My expert
ence is that it is best used soon after
rain while the road is sloppy, or
wait until the top is dried, because
stiff mud will not slip from the drag
and makes 1t pull harder. 1t does not
make very much of a load for two
horses after road is once in shape.
A fall of snow can be dragged out of
the road just as easily as the dirt can
be thrown to the middle so that the
road does not become very mud ly at
any time.
/ have not actually spent as much
time keeping the road smooth as it
would take to work out my poll tax
and have done it all when | could not
work in the field. | also find the drag
useful on the farm. 1t is good thing
with which TO drag down gopher hills
in the alfalfa fields and it is just as
cute in leveling a field for irrigation
much better than a harrow in either
case. l believe if l should make an
other drag | would use a two by IL
oak plank 16 feet long, cut in two. IL
would be easier made and have a
straight edge. 1t is not necessary to
shoe it when first made, but after it
has been used while it needs strip
of iron on the front log to make it
take hold.

heart would flutter painfully when
would walk fast or sweep.

benefit. One evening our grocer was
asking husband how | was and he
urged that | quit coffee and use
Postum, so he brought home a pkg.
and | made it according to directions
and we were both delighted with it.

New York's Rapid Growth.

The rapid growth of the nations
great metropolis is source of nation
al interest and pride. Statisticians
figure that the population of the city
will exceed that of London by the
year 1915, and will double in 25 years.
The present generation will undoubt-
edly see in New York the worlds
greatest metropolis. Few persons
realize that the population of New
York city is already one in 20 of the
population of the entire United States,
or that the growth of New York city
in the century past has been five
times more rapid than the growth of
the whole country.-Moody's Maya
