SURE DEATH TO
Wild MUSTARD
Wisconsin Experiment Sta
tian Hit Upon Effective
Spray

Farmers need no longer fear the
mustard, dock or Canada thistle.
At least such is the statement of
scientists and private individuals who
have been experimenting recently with
view of annihilating these pests
which often render otherwise valuable
tracts of land worthless.
A cure has been found, 1t is claim
ed, and which when used on fields
where the noxious weeds thrive, kills
the pests but does not injure grass nor
clover. This spray consists OF q 10
per cent. solution of iron sulphate. To
spray an acre of ground. it requires
100 pounds of iron sulphate dissolved
in "a gallons Of water
Extensive experiments carried on at
the wisconsin agricultural college re-
suited in~the entire destruction of the
mustard weed in fields where 1t had q
strong hold. Concerning the sprayer
used. the Scientific American says:
The sprayer used for the pests has
the appearance of chemical fire en-
CINE but from the fact that the large
copper tank which hold 75 gallons of
solution is mounted on q two-wheel
cart and is drawn by one horse. Pipes
filled with numerous holes extend like
arms 10 feet from each side OF the
machine. A fos-hks spray Is spread
over the field from these pipes. A
pump Ia set in motion by the dfawiAE
of the machine. This keeps pressure
of 100 pounds on tho liquid. The arms
of the machine can be adjusted 30
that the spray is brought close to the
crop or In case OF narrow places the
arms can be raised perpendicularly.
Care Is taken to prevent foreign ma
terial from gaining entrance 70 the
| reservoir. The solution before using
is strained through q fine wire sieve
| Particular attention must be given
the time at which the spray is used.
Practical experiments have shown that
the best time for spraying fields In
fected with mustard is when the plant
is in the third leaf The day must be
bright, there must be no wind, and
| there should be no dew ON ne weeds.
If rain follows the spraying within a
few hours the solution will be weak
ened and the mustard will not be sue
cessfully exterminated. II rain fol-
lows Is hours after the spraying the
determination will be quite perfect
In case Of rain two hours after, so
per cent of the mustard lived to pro-
duce seed.
Experiments conducted by a number
of Tacoma residents with the spray on
the weeds in their lawns brought out
the fact that this spray will destroy
the dandelion, the dock and the Cana
dian thistle. and that It will do so
without injuring the grass.

JAP SITUATION
IS MENACINC

WASHINGTON, June 10.--That the
Japanese of the Pacific coast and the
progressives, a political party of Jap
an, have entered into an alliance which
has the earmarks of an international
conspiracy with the overthrow Of the
present ministry in Japan and the an
nulment of the clause In the immigra-
ton bill excluding Japanese coolie la
Dor, from continental United States. as
the ultimate objects. was learned au-.
thoritatively here yesterday. The pre-
liminary steps in this scheme, 1t is
said, will be to induce the Toxic gov
eminent to recall viscount Aolzi, the
Japanese ambassador to the United
States, and demand an apology and
perhaps an indemnity from this gov
eminent for the alleged acts of vio-
lence against Japanese subjects resid-
ing in San Francisco.
With this end in view, representa-
tives Of the faction hostile to the
Saongi ministry have been in Wash
ington to consult with the Japanese
ambassador and the state department
officials regarding the Objectionable
clause in the immigration bill, the
California school question and the re-
cent riots in San Francisco. The re-
port which they have sent to Toxic. it
is alleged, will form the basis Of a sys-
tematic campaign to bring about anti.
American Representations in Japan and
to force Minister Hayashi If possible
to demand indemnity and an apology
on account of the Japanese disturb
ances in San Francisco
These facts became known today for
the first time when it was learned that
T.. Takahashi, representative Of the
Seattle-Japanese society; O. Noda.
representative of the San Francisco
Japanese society. and K. Kawakami.
stan representative of the Yorozu
daily newspaper) of Toxic, came to
WASHINGTON on April 21 and remained
ystI A'ay - Turing which time they
were negotiating with the Japanese
ambassador looking to the annulment
Of the Japanese immigration limitation
law.
