deal In its favor when practiced by
those engaged in severe physical toll
or by those who are in a depleted
physical condition o. invalids. Ii pre-
vents an exhaustion that can only be
harmful.

In some localities 1t has been found
that Canada thistles multiply only BY
the root system and not BY seed This
seems to be due In part at least to
the fact that there are two types Of
plants. one bearing male or staminate
blossoms and the other female or pis-
tillate. Neither type viii produce seed
by itself, and the pistillate blossoms
will do % only when there are stani-
nate blossoms near by to ferttlise
them.
