a pound is the easiest kind of pro-
position when properly connected up
with the fight against the dandelion
nuisance. Since 100000 pounds or
more are imported annually into the
United States, to be used incidentally
in diseases of the liver and dyspepsia,
Mr.. Hammond thinks that many a
young boy or girl ought to make fair
ly good wages by collecting and pre-
pairing the roots of the plant for the
drug trade. OF course it should not
be taken for granted that the grown
folks will all go out of the dandelion
business just in order to let the chill
dren get rich at the job, because there
will probably always be enough of a
crop to furnish plenty of exercise for
people who do not need the money but
like to fight the gold-fowered nuisance
lust for the fun of the thing.
