FoxTAIL
fBy Russell Wilson, student War

fBy Russell Wilson, student War
rem High School)
Foxtail is a common weed of Min
nesota. The stem has an erect and
straight habit while at the head or
top part of the stem it has an open
and branching habit. Branchings,
because small hairs protrude from
this part of the stem make it look
like a miniature fox's tail. At the
union Of each hair to the head a seed
is produced, greenish white in color
when ripe, and a little larger than
the seed of the common barnyard
grass. Generally this weed does not
grow very tall while sometimes it
does. The head and stem are both
of yellowish white color. This is
describing the green foxtail which is
a species of the foxtail family This
kind of foxtail grows in this part of
Minnesota and not very much is seen
the state. It is found chiefly along
road sides, in meadows, in waste
places, in pastures and in cultivated
fields. It does not seem to grow much
in marshy or wet places but only in
the more dry locations.
Some of it's most harmful effects,
are, crowding out and shading the
useful vegetation that has commenced
to grow. In some cornfields of the
southern states, the roots of this
| weed have been known to form a reg
| ular sod, wherein the corn turns a
pale yellow because they cannot get
enough plant food for the reason that
the roots of the foxtail so crowded
| the roots of the corn that they took
nearly all the food from them. 1t
also shades the vegetation when it is
in the form of a tall grass, being high
er than the other growing matter and
by bending over onto one another
This shuts out the sunlight which all
plants need for their growth.
It's distribution Of its seeds is in
several ways; for example, the seeds
have fallen from the head Of the stem
where they are produced onto the
ground, a dog or any other ANNA
comes along with wet feet and passes
near the plant, some of the small
seeds stick to his wet feet and as he
goes along they fall off and the mex
spring plant has sprung UP where
that seed was dropped and had take1
root. Other ways are: that some
times they catch or are collected il
the fur of different animals and are
thus distributed; and, when at times
the wind is blowing quite hard the.
are scattered, but the seeds are gen
orally distributed by different ami
mails; thus it propagates by it's seeds
Some of the best methods of kill
ing this weed are by blowing it unde
every so often and by narrowing it
Another way to prohibit it from scat
tering it's seeds and spreading is b,
cutting it in harvesting before tn
seeds are ripe, then when the sam
plant grows up again, the frost vii
kill it before the seeds are ripe agar
Another good way is by turning shee
onto the field where this exists, an
they will keep eating the stems off S
that the roots soon die because the
cannot respire or get the SUI
light. Sheep are good thing to
discriminating almost any kind Of
harmful weed or plant.

A party of government surveyors,
with three carloads of equipments
unloaded from the Northern Pacific
Tuesday morning and hauled their,
outfits to the 'sheep ranch" farm, up
the Tongue river, where Mr. Newtons
has contracted to take charge of themi]
for the winter. The outfit unloaded
consisted of thirty horses, wagons,
saddles, and complete camping outfit
to accommodate corps of thirty
men. They started at Poplar, Mon
tana, in April and quit work at Portal
where they shipped from. At Portal

governments to erect iron posts and
| earthen mounds marking the bound
airy from Lake of the Woods to the
Pacific ocean, and to make topograph-
ical survey of the land mile on each

are familiar to people here were
erected by joint commission in
1915 and extend west to the vicinity
of the Turtle Mountain. Mr.. Jesse Hill
is in charge of this outfit which win
tiers here. and the men are all young
fellows, principally from Washington

TIPPECAhOE CHORUS HOLDS
 A SPIRITuAIIsTIC SEAkCE
Appropriate Ceremonies at the Stratfield in Honor of De- parted Members

With solemn faces and dew-dimmed eyes, the members of the Tippecanoe chorus gathered about the festive board last evening and nourned their dead. Members clasped hands, looked into each others eyes for a moment and then turned silently away. It was too much.
 Memories of by-gone days welled up
 within every heart. With clenched fists and compressed lips. the Spartan singers repressed the tears that we'll gretful letters, like spirit messages from the long departed. were read from Postmaster Marigold, Congress
 man Hill, Secretary of State Rogers. Judge Nobbs and Leader Jepson. Nap kins reversed and tumblers inverted at the empty seats around the table bore mute testimony to the love and esteem held by the chorus for the friends of other days.
 The dinner was held in The Strat- field, and the euIogies were delivered by Postmaster Eugene Hebbard, in a l voice thrilling with emotion. After i this the chorus rendered musical program as follows:
 Marche funebre Chopin. Dead March from Saul Handel. Death of Asa Grieg. l Funeral March Beethoven.
 Then the entire company arose and 1 united in singing sThere is Rest for : the Weary" and Heaven is Their i Home." and the gathering mournfully 1 dispersed.

$ Pushing and Pulling.

It has been wisely observed that most operations can be more efficiently performed by drawing them along through their proper course than by at- tempting to push and jam them through. just as it is much easier to pull rope than 1t is to push it There are probably not many persons who have tried to push rope. but very many have attempted things almost as perverse. In many manufacturing eS- tabIishments. for example. there may be seen numerous examples of men wasting large part of their energy endeavoring to move heavy pieces of work upon small trucks, pushing and laboring in the exertion of effort. a small fraction of which goes to cause the actual progression. Even when such an effective aid to transport as an industrial railway is installed 1t is of ten used at less than its proper etf1- ciency because there is too much push ing and not enough pulHng.-Cassier's Maga zine.

Bags That Last.

"The young chap whose morals trembie for just now is my nephew" the city salesman remarked. He has a position as errand boy in banking house. He is bright lad and as steady as they make 'em. but since he got that job in the bank his women relations are urging him into crime
 They do not advise him to pick his employers pockets or run away with the days deposits, but the principle in- volved is just as reprehensible. They ask him to abstract a few bags that the silver money is carried in. The women want those bags for sofa pill low covers. They are made of mate rial that will never wear out and feathers and down simply cannot sift through. By boldly asking for what he wanted the boy has secured enough bags to incase his mothers sofa pill lows. but if he supplies the rest of the family see nothing ahead of him but a career of crime"-New York Sun.

ford, the celebrated American writer of fiction and plays, who died in Italy a bit over year ago. The story of the play is based upon fact and the characters of the Nun and the Soldier in t'The White Sister, have their flesh and blood prototypes in the material world. The action is supposed to take place near the Porta Portese, Rome, and the four acts revealed are set first in the Reception hall of a Con- vent Hospital, the Cloistered Garden at the Convent, and finally in the rooms of Capt. Severi's apartments near the Powder Magazine.
 Incidental music for the play was specially. composed by William Furst and in the interpretation of the score, a quartette= of soloists and a we'll or ganized chorus is used. Hugh Ford, probably the best known of our many stage managers, directed the produc- ton of '"The White Sister, and Messrs. Liebler and Company are it's sponsors. Chicago was. enthus astic over the play and the acting of Miss Allen and her associates and from every point of view, the offering on Satur- day matinee and evening promises to claim title as the most worthy visi- tor of the season. -.'.,'.

 During the course of recent inter- view, MT. Mantell who will appear at the Park Theatre Thursday even ing, was asked to express shis opinion of the proposal to erect a monument to Shakespeare in London, and of what he thought the most fitting monument would consist.

 AS for that" answered MT. Man tell, the dispute that has been agi- tatlng Shakesparean scholars in Eng land and elsewhere will no doubt set tie the matter satisfactorily to all con- cerned. I care little how it is done although I have always considered that Dante, Homer, Shakespeare, and Milton, being perhaps the only true lit erary citizens in the world at large. should be honored by memorials erect ed by the whole world"
