WEEDS COST IOWA
FARMERS $25, 000,0 900

Ames, Iowa, July 20-Iowa S
weeds cause farmers loss of not
less than $25,OOO,OOO year, accord
ing to a bulletin on weeds just put
out by the agricultural extension de-
partment at Iowa State College.
This loss" says DR.. l.. II. Pammel,
author of the bulletin, could be
avoided in large part if more
thorough steps were taken with
weeds" He says,
weeds are harmful in good
many ways. They consume plant
food, that should go to the agricul-
tural crop. They rob cultivated
plants of sunlight. They take the
moisture so essential for a crop, es-
pecially in dry year. Weeds like
the morning CORY pull down crop
like corn, wheat or oats. Many of
them harbor bad insects.

should get off one of the tracks cut
through the field would be lost. He
couldn't see ten feet in any direc-
ton. and his only chance to get out
would be to tie three or four stalks
together and climb up them. Four OF
thes talks combined would hold an
ordinary sized man up.
The Star man thought he saw
something like hill ahead, and pro-
posed going to it, but Mr.. Duval
laughed and said it was only where
the corn was higher by couple OF
feet than it was right around the
party.
The fertility of this soil will not
be exhausted for untold centuries.
For thousands of years the river
manufactured muck, till in some
places it is forty feet deep. The two
indispensable things-soil and irri-
gation-are combined.
In every place where the ground
has been allowed to go uncultivated
a few weeks, the weeds have grown
in forests of their own. Some OF
these weeds are twenty and thirty
feet high. With much hard work.
Mr.. Welch, using big, sharp pock-
etknife, cut one down and took
piece off the butt. 1t was hollow, or
he couldn't have cut il down with
anything yess than an AK. The piece
he took off to bring to town was al
most foot in diameter.
1t is estimated that this field OF

heard whining among the graves.
When he came to the newest one he
found Pete. The dog laying at the
side of the headstone and would not
come away when the sexton left.
The next morning he was still there.
Since then Pete has never missed
day at the graveyard. When he
turns in from the road he goes
straight to the Hud speth lot and
stays there for hoursat time. The
sexton has noticed his restlessness
He haunts around among the stones
only to return to his masters grave.
Finally he goes back to town and
makes once more the round OF the
stores. Sometimes he goes out to the
farm. Sometimes he goes back to the
graveyard and the sexton finds him
in the morning whining at the
mound of earth. Always he has
restless troubled air as he searches
for some one who cannot be found :.
So Pete waits at his masters grave
