ERADICATION Of WEEDS.
Crops Need Persistent Aid Of Farmers
to Hold Their Own,

In all the older agricultural portions
of the world weeds present difficulties
of considerable magnitude. A weed
may be defined as "a plant out of
place." Nature is a vast battle-ground
for competing plants and animals.
Wherever the ground is broken and
good negotiating conditions established,
there the struggle of plants for SUI
premacy is on. The valuable crops
which we are trying to produce may
not be strong competitors for the
place and may need the persistent aid
of the farmer to hold their W against
natural rivals. Any valuable crop i
bound to be diminished ii weeds ar
allowed to occupy the same ground .:
the same time.
