1896 were, perhaps, the first expert.
ments of the kind conducted in any
country. Since that date various ex-
perimenters have recommended either
copper or iron sulphate for the de-
struction of weeds under varying con-
ditions.
Each year our experiments have re-
suited in success of such marked ma
ture that the writer feels safe in as
serting that when the farming public
have accepted this method Of attack
ing weeds as regular farm operation
that the gain to the country at large
will be much greater in monetary con-
sideration than that which has been
afforded by any other single piece OF
investigation applied to field work in
agriculture, not even excepting the
now generally used formaldehyde
method of seed disinfection which has
saved to the state of North Dakota an
nually, wheat and other cereals to the
value of several millions of dollars.
The writer is not over sanguine in
this matter and recognizes that this
method of destroying weeds cannot re-
place the approved methods of eradi'
cation by cultivation, seed cleaning
crop rotation, manure composing
proper pasturing and vigilant hand
work. There are, however, great
areas in the north and western cereal
growing regions which, until SUFFICIENT
people have occupied the land to
break it up into small farms, must be
cropped upon the large plan charac
teristic of cereal and meadow produc
ton. This allows the Introduction OF
annual and other types of weeds in

be the more injurious of the two, and
occurs throughout all of temperate Eu-
rope and northern Africa, while the
latter is confined mostly to Italy sand
the neighboring islands.
The most satisfactory control meth
cd tried during the past two years was
the use of the screen cage. This was
found to capture afout IS to 95 per
cent Of the adult hoppers at a time
in the spring before any eggs are de-
l-osited.
Spraying for the 1ymphs about June
I, or just before the spring brood be-
comes mature, will kill satisfactory
percentage of the nymphs or young,
but will not kill many adults, or pre-
vent eggs, which are present at this
time, from Matching later. If the cage
method has not been used, or satisfac-
torily operated, spraying for the
nymphs will very materially aid in re-
ducing the numbers of the spring gen.

ent kinds which are most abundant
upon their farms. Sometimes the
weed is known by the right name and
the seed is not known at all. Some
times the seed is well recognized be-
cause perhaps, millers and elevator
men have refused to buy grain con-
tanning it at the normal price, while
the weed which produces the seed is
not recognized. 1t is not at all un-
common to find persons who have
been damaged for years by the growth
of destructive weed pests, wholly un-
certain as to the possible methods the
weed may have of reproducing itself
One of the commonest questions that
this department has. to answer is:
Does this weed grow from the root
year after year or does it grow simply
from the seed?" This is such very
simple question that one could sus-
pect anyone might be able to answer
it, should he take the trouble to make
a few daily observations during the
farming operations. Naturally, the an
swer is of direct importance when de-
Gliding as to what method to pursue
in attempting to control the weed. The

of a particular weed may be pursu-

for an observing person to decide the
proper steps to take in cropping and
cultivating in order to give the particu-
lar weed pest the hardest possible con-
ditions under which to thrive.
Experiments in spraying to eradi-
cate weeds in cereal grain fields have
been conducted at this experiment

THE CARE OF FERNS

Most ferns, especially those offered
in greenhouses, are shade-loving.
Their native homes are in canyons,
or under trees in moist places, where
the air is quiet, and their fronds are
not disturbed. Many of them are from
tropical countries and quite number
have originated in greenhouses, eth
er as sports or from spores, as their
seeds are called. Adiantums, or mai
den-hair ferns, are more difficult to
manage in the house, because they
will not long survive the dry air of
rooms, owing to the extreme delicacy
and small size of their pinnules, which
are sometimes almost as delicate as
gauze. They are sensitive to dryness
well in shaded places outside, in lath
houses, or shady verandas, and only
the few succeed with them in the
house Many other kinds are admir-
ably suited for house culture; among
the different varieties of Nephrolepis,
of which the Boston fern is one, the
Asplenium Belangeri. Woodwardia, a
native California fern, and Dicksonia
Antarctica.
Ferns should not be placed in halls
or situations exposed to draughts.
They require great care in watering.
People often think they have watered
their plants when the water has only
gone over the surface and around the
sides of the pots, the center of the
ball being still quite dry. This is espe-
cially the case when the pots are
filled with roots. 1t is necessary that
the ball should be. thoroughly soaked.
There is no regular rule as to the
time for watering. Plants in vigor-
GUS growth require more frequent wa
tering. Evaporation, also, has much
to do with it. On dry, warm days,
when evaporation is great, water may
be needed twice a day, while If the
air is cool and moist, two or three
days might intervene without water.
A healthy. vigorous plant absorbs
much water, while delicate one can
absorb but little. The soil should be
examined always, and If dry. watered;
il not, refrain from watering. A dry
pot, II tapped. gives hollow sound
like q ripe watermelon. while one that
is wet gives dull, heavy sound tina,
indicates moisture.
When leaves shrivel and turn vel
low, the soil has been too dry; If they
turn yellow without shriveling, II in
dicates too much water has been Civ
en-. In either case, the roots have
been abused and lost their power ,oi

ELECTION OF
BREEDING HOGS

Taken as a whole, there is no
arked difference between the early
aturing qualities of the Poland
nina, Duroc Jersey, Chester White
-Iserkshire breeds of hogs. Neither
IS it been proven that one has any
arked superiority over the other as
the rate at which flesh may be laid
l or the cheapness of gains. The
,laracteristics of these breeds are
ell marked, and there are special
-,ints of excellence that one breed
ay possess to greater degree than
e others; still, considering the fac
rs which determine almost entirely
profit or loss in hog raising, name
fecundity, rate and cheapness OF
ins, a more marked difference will
found between individuals of the
me breed than between any of the
,ove breeds taken collectively. 1t Is
.erefore necessary whether breeding
lre-bred hogs or grades to consider
e individual carefully when select
G breeding animals.
The fecundity of sows always ap-
,als to hog raisers. The size of lit
=rs varies with breeds to some ex-
Mt, but still more with individuals.
atistics compiled by the Indiana ex-
.riment station show that the aver
;e size of several hundred Poland
lima, Berkshire and Chester White
tiers were: Poland China, 6.5 pigs
the litter; Berkshire, seven pigs to
ale litter, and Chester White, rs pigs
the litter. However, litters of these
'eeds will vary from three or four
ten or more pigs to the litter. Con-
lement and overwhelming tend to re-
Ice fecundity. Again, sows that are
uggish or overrefined in type are
Tually Indifferent breeders. So far
= known the SOW controls the size of
ters, and since fecundity is largely
individual or family characteristic
is good policy to select brood sows
lily from litters of which at least
wen pigs have been successfully
Used.
In selecting breeding hogs, either
-ale or female, the following points
lould receive consideration: Form,
ze for age, quality, and feet and legs.
To thoroughly inspect a hog, it is
.cessary to view 1t from the side,

In the literature Of grape insects
in this country. Harris account of the
insect remained the standard for a
long while, and no very thorough work
was done on the life history of the in
sect until 1t was undertaken by
Slingerland in 1901. In California it
has been reported as pest of the vine
since 1875.
With the exception of the phyllox-
era, the vine hopper is undoubtedly
the most destructive insect pest of the
vine in sections where it has gained
any foothold. Vineyardists in Cal
ifornia are particularly concerned
about it, for each year in some parts
OF the state 1t occurs in very great
numbers, and in such sections it lev
les heavy tax upon the vineyard in
terests. To give expression to this
loss in money value, for example, in
one vineyard of about 1000 acres near
MADEIRA, the owner estimated that the
damage done last year by hoppers
would aggregate about $4,000.
The grape leaf-hopper belongs to
the class of injurious insects that OBJ
tain their food by sucking the juices
from the plant. Scale insects and
plant lice are other well known pests
belonging to this same general group,
which obtain their food in much the
same way that the mosquito sucks our
blood. The sharp-pointed beak or
proboscis of the hopper is thrust lnlo
the tissues of the grape leaf, and the
liquid parts extracted therefrom. The
feeding is done mostly on the under
side of the leaf, and those leaves
around the base Of the vine are the
ones first attacked.
The first indication Of their work is
a mottied appearance of the leaf, due
to the pale spots formed wherever the
The Sauk Centre herald., 1908-12-17

show a rather short head, full jowl
and neck, strong rather arched back
without any depression back of the
shoulders or at the loin, deep body
of good length and deep, well
rounded ham. From front and rear
the side lines of the body should be
straight and parallel, and this will be
true If the development of shoulder,
spring of rib and ham are uniform.
Good quality is indicated by fine
hair, medium bone, absence of wrin-
kles and general coarseness. Hogs
coarse in type mature slowly and fat
ten indifferently. Those possessing
harsh hair and skin and showing wrin-
kles will produce inferior pork.
Breeding hogs should have short,
strong legs and strong, upright pas
terms. ....
Lack of sufficient bone, as shown
by weak, broken down pasterns, is a
common defect noticeable in brood
sows, especially those that have been
fed largely on corn. In fact, feed has
much to do with development and
strength of bone. A low, weak back
indicates weakness, and no young SOW
showing such a defect should be saved
for breeding. These two defects
weak pasterns and backs-may be
readily noticed when the pig is moved
and often when standing. Other COM
mon faults are coarse shoulders open
on top, poorly sprung, short ribs and
narrow loin.
None but pure bred boars of good
form should be used, and only those
possessing early maturing qualities.
By selecting vigorous, well formed
sows of prolific families and pure
bred, early maturing boars of good
quality, the best combination is se-
cured. This combination of good
qualities may be secured in one breed,
but more often hog raisers attempt to
secure them by selecting sows Of one
breed and boars of another. There is
nothing radically wrong with this plan
If market stock is the object, still
equally good or better results can be
obtained by sticking to one breed and
making careful selection of all
breeding stock.

from season to season according az

method of attacking weeds by means
of chemical sprays is one-quarter or
one-half as successful in general oper-
alton as the writer is willing to
vouch for, the money returns to the
spring wheat growing states must far
exceed the hopes of the most optL
mistic.
Suffice it to say. the proper handling
of spraying machinery and proper

splendid results in weed destruction
