PINCH OF SALT WILL
KILL DANDEL0N, IS
GOVERNMENT METHOD
.entinel Special Service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Washington, D. c., May 14.-The
best way to kill individual dande-
lion plants is to cut off their tops and
put a pinch of salt (about thimble-
fuD on the surface of each exposed
root. This will kill most of them. AS
salt II generally applied ruins soil,
the salt should be used sparingly and
applied only to the root-tops of the
dandelion. The u. S. department Of
agriculture has for some time been
testing various poisons to discover
the most efficient means of eradicat-
ing this troublesome weed from the
lawns, but although others have
been found satisfactory, the common
salt is best for general use as there
is no danger accompanying its ap-
plication.
The departments specialists say
that much effort is wasted in mere
ly cutting off the dandelion top
without applying some poison to the
root that remains. The dandelion
has tap root that grows deep into
the soil and cutting off the plant
merely encourages the dandelion to
come up in a thicker growth.
Remove the dandelion before IL
goes to seed. The time to eradicate
dandelions is in the spring before the
plant has had time to form seed. The
seed spreads rapidly, blown by the
wind. The blossoms should be close
mown before the yhave gone to seed
and salt should then be applied to
each root. A man may be very dill
gent in caring for his own lawn and
yet have seeds blown in from neigh
boring lawns. This is Of such i'm
portance to those desiring fine. lawns.
