by President Wilson, in which many
applicants we're eliminated. At least

In connection with the announce

toward the Philippines, beyond the re.
marks that he would carry out Demo

ed and some commissioners will be
named within a few days.
Harrison was member of the par
ty which accompanied William How
ard Taft, as Secretary Of War, on his
trip to the Philippines, and he had
several conferences on Philippine
matters from time to time with Pres.
ident Wilson, so that his viewpoint
is known to the administration.
Mr.. Harrison has been in frequent
conferences with the president on the
Philippines since the beginning of the
administration, but was in no sense
candidate for appointment to the
post which he has accepted. Within
few days, it was said. the President
will select two additional members
of the commission to fill existing va
cancies.
Mr.. Harrison, who has some views
of his own relative to the Philippine
question, is expected to abide by the
policy of the administration in deal.
ing with the question.
The president has publicly stated
that he would delay action until he
became better acquainted with the sit
uation in the islands and it is under
stood Mr.. Harrison will undertake in
Ivestigation of all phases of Philippine
matters and report to the president
before any definite policy with respect
to independence is agreed upon.

HOW WEEDS ARE REPRODUCED
In ouf1orass, One Means Of Multi
pI'estion 10 by Stems, Com
al monty Called Roots"

(By l.. II. PAMMEL,
Weeds are spread by means OF
seeds. by vegetable reproduction, or
by both seeds and vegetative repro
duction. Most weeds multiply by
means OF roots. stems, or both. In
quack grass. one means Of multiplied.
ton Is by stems commonly called
roots" which are divided into a
series Of Joints at which new shoots
are produced. In another type. like
the Canada thistle. morning glory,
and horsehettle. q small part OF the
underground portion Is stem. the rest
being true root On these roots buds
are produced which send up new
shoots each year.
Some plants. like wild onion, pro-
duce bulblets. In others, as crab
grass. the stem above ground may
strike root at the nodes. or roots
may me produced at the points as in
purslane. These roots and stems
capable Of producing new plants are

changed several times a day, as the
chicks require very large quantity
Of water. When the chicks are about
two weeks old we pull handful Of
green clover, tic the stems together
with a string and hang the bunch Of
green material where the little chicks
can pull off the leaves. Too much
green feed will cause scours, but
some of It is needed.
The earthworm serves as a host for
the cape worm. Therefore chicks that
ae allowed to roam over infected
ground will cont act gapes. By keep
Ing our young chicks on ground that
has not become infected, we have
never had a case of gapes at this
Station.
When the chicks are with the hen
we provide warm nesting box sep
arated from the remainder of the
flock. II we are brooding the birds I'M
der a heated hover we are very care
full to keep the temperature at 1903
degrees F. whilo the chicks are young.
IL the young birds become chilled they
will be weakened. Any deformed or
weak chicks arc killed during the first
twelve hours of their lives. 1t is not
a good practice to take weak chicks
from the incubator and allow them
to run with their stronger mates be-
cause they will contract disease and
infect the entire flock.
II there are no trees in the yard
where wo put the young birds, we pro
vide shade by making an awning out
OF feed sacks, or cotton cloth. Sun
flowers also make a good shade. #
the young birds when they are
month old can run In a cultivat-
ed field, 1t gives them exercise and
furnishes considerable feed.
BY following these methods we have
had a splendid success in the rear
ing OF young birds.
