Agricultural Dept. of Uni
versity Making Survey of
State to Eradicate Weeds
See HEAVY LOSSES ANNUALLY

The annual losses by Wisconsin farm
ers due to the noxious weeds are much
greater than most farmers suspect, ac-
cording to the results of weed survey
of several counties now being made by
the agronomy department of the Col
lege of Agriculture of the University
of Wisconsin, under the direction Of
Prof. A. L. Stone, state seed Inspector.
In some sections where the farms av-
erage 2l5 acres in size, So acres of each
farm were reported to be seriously in
tested with noxious weeds
A preliminary investigation made
with the corporation of the members
of the Wisconsin Experiment Associa-
ton showed that in 81 counties weeds
were serious tax on the farm re-
sources. The average amount expended
to eradicate and control weeds on 129
farms reported amounted to $43, while
the total tax on these farms was only
| $74. The weeds thus were costing the
farmers half the amount of his taxes.
The troublesome weeds, in the area
of their distribution, are: quaek grass,
Canada thistle, wild mustard, sow
thistle, burdock, yellow dock, ragweed,
cookie burr, snap dragon, ox-eye daisy,
and pigeon grass, The regions in which
each of these are most widely distrib-
uted are not clearly defined, but wild
mustard is most widely distributed in
the western counties, while in the thick
ly settled dairy sections of east-cen-
trial Wisconsin, large areas of Canada
thistles, sow dock, or ox-eye-daisy, ETC.,
are found.
The first steps have been made in a
survey of the weeds of the state, to
locate the most seriously infested areas
and to discover what methods, if any.
are being followed to control the weeds
Once the extent of the distribution
of the various weeds is known, meas
ures will be recommended for general
eradication. Representatives of the
station have made personal observa-
ton in several counties, and find con
ditions serious, much worse than farm
ers think.
Through the new state seed inspec-
ton law the farm seeds sold in the
state may be kept free from the worst
weeds, but farmers must adopt effect
i've methods of keeping the weeds now
growing on the farms under restraint
or they will soon constitute a very Sc
rious problem. The station will iden-
tify sample of weed and recon-
mend methods of control, if it is sent
to the state seed inspector, Experiment
Station, Madison, accompanied by the
facts as to extent and place of growth

Aldrch's Retirement Is Certain...Sec. Ba|Inger
Resignation Forecasted for September. .-Said
That Speaker Cannon May Also Retire.

Beverly. Mass. Aug. 12.-Certain
events of today, following Incidents of
the past week or so. lead inevitably to
the conclusion that a complete political
readjustment in circles close to Presi-
dent Taft is in progress
Senator Nelson w. Aldrich of Rhode
Island called to see the President
early today before the Chief Executive
had finished his morning meal. He
talked with the President 35 minutes.
He found that Mr.. Taft had not had an
opportunity to read the senator's re-
ply to Senator Bristow's charges re-
gardng the rubber tariff. The Presi-
dent was gratified. however, that SEN
ator Aldrich had consented to make a
statement. In doing so. it is said the
senator from Rhode Island performed
an act which fitted exactly into a pro-
gram which has been framed by party
leaders close to the President AL
though ne is not to retire until March
a. t91l-and Senator Aldrich confirmed
to President Taft today his intention to
do so-the readjustment plans which
plainly are in progress apparently
treat whatever influence Mr.. Aldrich
may have had with the President as a
thing of the past.
The elimination of Mr.. Aldrich, &C
cording to close political observers, is
soon to be followed by the retirement
of Secretary Richard A. Balinger from

been made upon him. 1t is said that

The retirement of Mr. Ballinger is fix
ed for Sept. Is. The Congressional COM
