WEED DESTRUCTION IN THE PHILIP
PIAES.

From an article in the Philippine .4grj-
c|uIturaI ReYie0, for February 1911, it APP
pears that the plant LdNtQnd Cumdr0,
which is one of those known as wild sage
in the West Indies, has been introduced,
together with other tropical American weeds
and ornamental plants, into the island Of
Negroes, in the Philippines. This plant, by
its rapid spread and luxuriant growth, has
already caused trouble to agricultlrists in
Hawaii, where insect pests have been intro
ducel for the purpose Of diminishing its
spread.
The measures that are proposed for the
eradication of the weed befo & it becomes
disseminated beyond control consist in the
process of loo3ening the root system, which
is very weak, by means of a pick or u strong
wooden stake, and then cutting through the
roots Just below the collar; the plants treat
ed in this way are allowed to become dry in
the sun, and are then burned as soon as
they are fit for this to be done.
The article draws attention to the charac-
teristic inhorescence of the plaut, which
consists of a small bunch of reddish or yell
lowish flowers, borne near the tips of the
branches; the flowers in the centre of the
bIuch open first, when their colour is pink
ISL or yellowish, but reddish or purplish af-
ter a few days. The most potent circum-
stance in the spread of the plant is the fact
that the fruits are eagerly eaten by birds,
which do not however digest the seeds.
AS is we'll known, the plant is a perennial
and attains in the West Indies a height of
5 to 7 feet. In Hawaii, it has been known
to grow as tall as 15 feet, but the specimens
in Negroes were only 6 to 8 feet high, at the
time of publication Ibid.
THE plant is we'll known, but not trouble

ADVERTISERS PROTECTIVE

An organiz ltion under the above clnt;,,
is addressing itself, over the name of IT, 500
rotary, to the editors Of the United Stato,
making a direct attack upon DR.. Harvey W

upon the fact that the manufacturers Of ta
maltitudinous, and generally worthless, food
preparations are such a lending support If

in the way of furnishing these artificial

an Investment of 400 millions of dollar. on9

latter state the crop this year will be larger
than it has ever been. Sac PaulO cotton IS
of shorter staple than that grown III the
north of Brazil, but that of Minas Geraes
is as good as that of P~ernambucO. The
cotton produced in Sac PaulO and Mlnas
Geraes is all consumed by the local mills.
Cotton has also been grown as far south as
Santa Cathrina, but only in very small guam
titles.
Ia the 'sertaos' (the open country right in
the interior) Of Parahyba and Rio Grand
do Norte, q certain quality of wild cotton
is grown, of particularly long staple, which
fetches a much higher price than the cotton
grown in the matto' the open country
nearer the ports).
The zone in Brazil where cotton can be
grown is far larger than the cotton zone ia
the United States. With the increased de-
mands made on American cotton by American
manufacturer and the consequent limitation
Of the amount for export from the United
States, more attention is being pBid to
cotton-growing in Brazil (see Board Of
TRADE Journal of April %, p. 194), and from
the Presidents message to Congress, III
which he refers to the subject, the Brazilian
Government would seem likely to take steps
to hasten it's development, 1t is stated that
the Government will grant subventions an
uually to syndicates undertaking cotton
growing at the same time the North East
ern States are being opened up by I'm extern
sive network of railways, and irrigation works
are in progress. In Alagoas and Pernam-
buco especially, the Great Western Of Brazil
Railway Company is opening up important
cotton-growing districts. The Government has
founded an experimental station in Mnrnnham.
Cotton fields, as known in the United
States and other countries, are not to be
found in Brazil, where cotton is, as a rule,
grown by small farmers in conjunction with
other crops such as maize, beans and mum
dioca, the cultivation being of a primitive
kind. Progress is retarded chiefly by lack
Of capital and also by the absence of skill
ed labour the Government have recently
contracted with some United States experts
to visit the plantations and give practical
instruction. Progress is retarded also by
the want of improved machinery for the
cleaning of the cotton most of the ginning
machinery in the north of Brazil is antiquat-
ed, and the fibre suffers in consequence.
In states such as Ceara, which are devast-
ated by drought, cotton is being grown on
fields watered almost entirely by irrigation,
and seed imported from Egypt produces
cotton which sells in Liverpool for almost
the same price as that from Egypt. (Ihe

The report that England has ordered a

COrTON-GROWING IN BRAZIL.

was always fair and reason

way that brought universal
praise from the press of the

had anything to do with his
official duty to the detriment
Of the state or the people?
If we judge Mr.. Wallis by his
public record as pure food
commissioner let us hope that
some of our public men may
join the Mormon church. In
his private life he is a good
man, having one of the larg-
est families in the state, and
morally stands out with a
clean record. He is sober, in
dustrious and honest, and has
demonstrated that the cry
againgt the Mormon people is
not entirely justified.
We hear it said that the
Mormons stick together. So
would the NIethodiSts or
Catholics if the fight made "a
gainst the Mormons were
made against these sects.
AS a material factor in the
development of the state Ida
no has had no class that has
done more to build up the
state than have the Mormon
people. They have made the
desert places bloom like the
rose, have converted our sage
brush plains into waving
fields and have done theil
share in adding to the taxable
property of vur state. If this
be crime tnen there is grave
danger in Mormanisn. Lei
us give the orMmon people q
square deal; let US treat then
DIS we treat other religious
bodies and see if they are moi
just as good citizens. The
mere fact that d citizen holds
membership in any church
ought not to disqualify hin
from political preferment.

zebras for Domestic Use.

There is a big scheme on foot for
the capture of zebras for domestic
purposes. The animals. which are to
be broken to harness and saddle, are
said to be immune from the ravages
of the tsetse fly, and in districts in.
fected with that scourge they should
prove much more valuable than either
horses or mules. Although the zebra
is one of the most difficult of the
equine race to break, these beautiful
animals are not infrequently seen on
the South African veldt running with
a span Of mules in transport wagon,
while few years ago one used to see
a team Of zebras being fooled"
through Hyde Park by a member of
the Rothschild family.

In this issue appears an
article from S. w. Condron
of Border, in which he takes
exceptions to the arguments
advanced in the article pub
lished last week IN opposition
to "a parcels post law. He
contends that such a law
would result benefcially to a
great number of people in
this country, and that its
greatest opposition has al
ways come from the express
companies. In giving space
to Mr.. Condron's article we
wish to say that we would be
gald if more of our subscrib-
ers would express themselves
on public questions by con-
tributing articles to the pa
per. The columns of the Elk
amlner are always open for
those who may wish to crit
icise any article appearing in
it or to advance their ideas
upon any question of county,
state or national interest. If
the people would be more
liberal in presenting their
ideas through the columns OF
the country press, it would
enable public officials, and
especially the law makers, to
better know the wishes OF
their constituents. Many a
farmer, who has given care
full study on some one CUES.
ton, would be able to present
some good points, and prob
ably points never before
thought of, and the best way
to let the public know Of these
points is through the press.
Some hesitate to contribute
articles to a paper because
they think that they cannot
express their thoughts on pa
per according to the Queens
English. y That should not
prevent any man from letting
his ideas be known. Again,
we say that the Examiner
would be pleased to receive
frequent communications
from its readers upon any
topic that any one may choose
TO write.
