those of the Bull Thistle and other
common thistles. These heads are
from one-half to seven-eighths of an
inch in diameter and are clustered at
the ends of the branches.
Owing to the fact that the Canada
rhistles spread by underground
stems, they are generally found on the
field in patches. These patches be-
come larger each year, unless taken

Identification Of the
Canada Thistle.
BY w. L. Oswald, Division of
Botany and Plant Pathology,
Minnesota Farm School.

j i 4 X i + i. + + + J. i. + i. i. i. !.
The Canada Thistle is fast becoming
the worst weed with which the Mime
sofa farmer has to contend This weed
should be exterminated when it first
appears on the field. 1t becomes neces-
sary, then, for the farmer to know this
plant when he sees it.
A numer of different kinds of this
ties are commonly found in this state.
Some of the most common are the fol-
lowing: Bull Thistle, Tall Roadside
Thistle, Field Thistle, Swamp Thistle
and Canada Thistle. The first four
are all biennials; that is, they live foY
but two years. The first year they
merely form a cluster of leaves on the
ground, and a large tap root, which
partially forms the food for the next
years growth. The next. year the how'
ering stalk is sent up, and in the fall
the plant seeds and then dies. The
Canada Thistle is a perennial; that is,
it lives from year to year, seeding each
year. This thistle not only prOpagates
itself by seed, but also by running I'M
der-ground rOOt-stalks, which are COM
monty but incorrectly called roots.
The stalk of the Canada Thistle is
more slender than the other thistles,
and the leaves are uneven or rufhed,
with the margin irregularly toothed
and very spiny; some of the spines are
often three-eighths of an inch long.
The flowers are purple in color, and
Morris tribune., 1910-11-04

cylindrical in shape. This seed iE
much smaller than the seed of the 9th
er thistles common in this state.
The Canada Thistle is supposed to
have been introduced into this country
from Canada. It's spread has been
rapid. Farmers should always be Oh
the lookout for it, as of all Minnesota
weeds it is one of the most difficult to
eradicate.
The Division of Botany and Plant
Pathology would be very glad at any
time to make determinations Of weeds
for the farmers of the state.

Was Getting Monotonous.

divorce not one but several husbands
was returning from Nevada. In Chi
,cago she happens to meet her first
husband, for whom. by the way, she

exclaimed the ex-wife,, cordially shak-
ing hands with the gentleman whose
name she formerly had borne. "I'm
awfully glad to see you, Charlie!"

come to and been banished from her
countenance, she added:

where you were and what you were
doing. 1t was too bad we didn't get
on better together. hope your ex-
perience hasn't been as unpleasant as
mine. I'm just sick and tired Of mar
rying strangers!
