Weed Seeds In Manure.

1t is we'll known that there is con-
siderable risk of introducing new
weeds by the purchase of manure and
hay and other feeding stuffs. e. l.
Oswald of the Maryland experiment
station undertook to obtain more def
mite information on this point, espe-
cially as regards dissemination through
manure, by studying the effect of the
fermentation of manure handled In
different ways and of passing through
the digestive systems of animals on
the vitality of various weed seeds, in
Guiding seeds of about fifty of the
worst weeds found in Maryland.
In experiments in which the manure
remained for six months in a barn
yard heap and for a short while in
piles, as when shipped in carload lots
from cities, it was found that in the
first case there was no danger and In
the second case little danger of dis
tributing live weed seeds. In the ex-
periments In which the weed seeds
were fed to yearling steers and the
manure handled in various ways 1t
was found that
First.-Where the manure was haul
ed directly from the stable as a top
dressing an average of only 1913 per
cent of the seed fed terminated.
Second.-Where manure was hauled
directly from the stable upon the land
and plowed under % per cent of the
seeds fed to animals came up.
Third.-Where the droppings remain
ed on the pasture fields unadulter-
ated as they fell an average Of only
81 per cent of the seeds fed to ami
mails terminated.
The results indicate that in general
1t is safe to assume that the vitality
Of weed seeds is destroyed In well
rotted manure.

Was Good Entertainment.

A packed house greeted the
children of the Catholic parochial
school at the hall last evening
when they presented their en-
tertainment and everyone pres
ent voted the entertainment one
of the best that has been given
here for long time. For their
first appearance in public the
children did exceptionally we'll
and showed the effects of the
careful training they had been
given by their instructors. Not
hitch was made in the program
from start to finish and every
number of the program met with
the hearty appreciation of the
large audience.
The entertainment was given
as a part of the usual school clos
ing exercises, the term drawing
to a close today. During the
past term SO students were en-
rolled at the school, all being
children of this parish. The
term has been an exceptionally
successful one and Rev. Father
Berthold wishes to thank all who
have assisted in any way to make
the school a success during the
term just closed and hopes that
the good work may continue in
future.
