Persistent Canada Thistle.

The cause Of the remarkable vitality
of Canada thistle and the point that
distinguishes 1t from other prickly
plants that are commonly mistaken for
it IL the long cordlike perennial root.
This root penetrates the soil to depth
OF eight to fifteen inches or more and
gives rise at frequent intervals to leafy
shoots. Thus 1t will often be found
that an entire patch of thistles 10 ~
tached to one root and is In reality
but one plant. The root is exceedingly
hardy and can live over winter or
through q prolonged drought In . dor
mant condition. Pieces Of the root
that are broken OF by plow or culti-
vator and carried to other places will
await warm, moist period and then
begin to send up leafy shoots. thus es-
tablishing new patch forthwith. II
the leafy stems are cut down, others
will be sent up to take their place and
this process may be repeated from two
to eight times before the root becomes
exhausted.

arranging an armistice among the bel
ligerent nations with the object of

Fighting of a desperate nature was
reported from the three principal the

merce in New York city state that there is a lack of trained road engi- neers, and sixteen say that preference would be given to graduates of college highway engineering courses in the ap- pointment of additional road engineers
 Nearly 1.6O0 engineers are now em- ployed by the twentyfour state com missions and in addition about 1000 are employed as county and city en- gineers in nineteen of the states.
 Salaries of highway engineers range from $500 to S5.000 a year. The av- craze is about $1,S00.
 There has been a tremendous in- crease in highway improvement throughout the country during recent years, and the demand for good roads is growing rapidly. Highway commits sioners report that they anticipate the number of engineers employed by the state highway departments will be doubled at least within five years.
 Enactment of thc federal roads bill approprtating $75, 100000 for construc- tion of public roads during the next five years, provided the various states appropriate an equal amount, assures the expenditure of $150,000,000 on main state highways in that period. This will greatly stimulate the building of minor roads by the states and counties.
 More than $250. 900, GOO is now spent annually in the United States for road construction repair and maintenance.
