HARRY THAW STILL IN JAIL
Canadian Law Not Sure of Mode of
Procedure.


Sherbrooke.-Har X. Thaw, SQUAD
bling with the dominion's leading law
yers retained to prevent his return to
the Matteawan state hospital for the
criminal insane, from which he es-
capped August II, was Sunday appar-
emily as much in ignorance of the next
move in his case as the casual idler
around Sherbrooke Jail.
His counsel is debating whether
they would produce Thaw In court on
a writ of habeas corpus this week or
abandon the writ, surrender him to
the immigration authorities, and coun-
tenance his deportation to Vermont,
a procedure to which, it was said here,
the immigration officers had agreed.
Thaw is loquacious, erratic, domi-
neering.
Never in this history of the province
Of Quebec or the Dominion Of Canada,
for that matter, has such legal snarl-
within-snarl case been before the
courts.

TO ERADICATE RUSSIAN THISTLE
Cut Ground With Sharp Disc Before
the Weed Goes to Seed.

hiC NCGd S0Co ~ oCCAs
The Russian thistle" says Mr..
Jones of Lincoln county, Wash,
makes very slow growth and ma
lures its seed late in the season. Es-
pecially is this true when growing in
a crop of grain. About the time that
the wheat is ready to harvest the
thistle is in bloom and the plants are
small. AS soon as the crop is cut the
plant grows rapidly. The size of the
plants when the grain is harvested
makes it possible to destroy the thistle
before it seeds by cutting the ground
with sharp disc or right lap imme-
diately after the grain is harvested.
Immediately does not mean in two
or for weeks, but the disc should fol-
low the header so that the seed will
not be sufficiently developed to grow. "
