KILLING WILD MORNING GLORY.

A study of the best methods of the
eradication of the bindweed, or wild
morning glory. has been made by the
department of agriculture, and the
data collected have been published as
farmers bulletin No. 1858, which may
be had by making request of the de-
partment Three methods are recon-
mended as practical for the eradica
ton Of the weed, which, like the
quack grass and Canada thistle. is so
serious because of its propagation
through underground root stalk sys-
TENS. The first method Is clean cul-
t1vation every week or ten days with
some knife cultivator during the en-.
tire growing season Of the plant.
which extends from the spring to the
fall froSts. The second method Is by
seeding an infested field to alfalfa.
The benefit of this method lies In the
frequent cutting. which weakens the
vitality of the morning glory, while
the dense and rapid growth Of the
alfalfa exerts a smothering effect. A
cultivated crop should follow the al
falfa and any remaining plants killed.
A third method which has been found
successful is the fencing of Of the
infested spots and turning in a drove
Of hogs. whose ration Of feed should
be reduced while they are at work on
the weeds. They not only browse the
tops close to the ground. but If they do
not have rings in their noses will dig
deep for the roots, which taste much
like the sweet potato and Of which
they are very fond.
While the hogs may be turned into
morning glory fields as pasture.
quicker and more satisfactory results
are obtained IL the field Is plowed and
the hogs then turned In. The blowing
loosens the roots and makes them the
more accessible. Conditions may rem
der second or thifd blowing during
the season advisable. For small
patches Of the weed artificial smother
ing material. such as building paper.
manure. beet pomace or straw. may be
used effectively. but with these ma
terials care must be taken to see that
the covering Is as nearly air tight as
possible.

A pretty good way Of ascertaining
whether the price asked for a given
piece Of land Is exorbitant or not Is to
find out whether the value of the an
nual product of the soil represents a
fair interest return on the stated val

been deducted. Viewed on this basis,
hosts Of supposed land bargains now
offered for sale can only be viewed as
largely speculative propositions.

Not very much in the way of mu-

any community which allows aristo-

ing Of five dollar dog tax is usually
the first tangible sign that any town is
awaking from its long sleep.

The plow Is probably the oldest ag-

used away back in the distant gears
was merely a crooked stick with a

pillow which will turn over three or
four acres per day and the steam or
gasoline traction outfit which will turn

DOES THE CLIMATE CHANGE,

DOES The CLIMATE CHANGE7
That the climate in the great semi
arid section lying west Of meridian
100 degrees has not changed materially
is proved quite conclusively in the con-
ditions which have this year confront
ed the settlers who have been throng
ing into this section by tens Of thou
sands during the past seven or eight
wet years. and the condition referred
to holds from Texas to Alberta. Can
ada.
An unprecedented drought prevailed
during the early growth of the small
grain and was particularly severe at
the time the berry filed. The result Is
that thousands of acres will not yield
grain enough to pay for oil for the
machinery and salt for the horses.
Whether these drought conditions are
to prevail for several years to come
no one under the sun is wise enough
to forecast. Settlers in these areas Of
uncertain rainfall should always plan
their operations on the basis Of the
driest years. SO as not to be disap-
pointed In the calculations. Should
more rain fall than the minimum they

BOOSTING CONNECTICUT.

In New York and Connecticut a def
mite movement is already afoot looking
to systematic advertising Of the mer-
its Of farm lands in the two states, fol-
lowing several years of exploitation of
the lands In the far south and west
The new move would seem to have
much to commend it. for not only can
much of the land in these two and 9TH
err New England states be handled
but much which has deteriorated may
be restored by proper agricultural
methods. Besides this, the territory re-
ferred to is traversed with network
Of trolley lines. which means ease of
transportation and accessibility to mar
kets which are always good In Con-
necticut the campaign Of exploitation
has been undertaken by the State Po
biological society, and in the literature
sent out are cited the facts that there
are only three states in the Union with
denser population than Connecticut
that there are twenty-one miles Of rail-
roads to every 100 square miles Of ter
ritory and that the average farm Is but
two miles and a half from railroad
station, that the Nutmeg State pro-
duces more corn per acre than any 9th
er state in the Union, stands fifth In
number of dairy cows per area and
that the Baldwin apple and Old Biddy
form combination that are bound to
win in the Connecticut hills This is
certainly wise policy. and In view of
the tremendous migration to the far
south, west and north 1t would seem
high time that other states which have
substantial advantages in home and
agricultural way were making the fact
known in an emphatic and definite
