WILD MORNING
GLORY COSTLY
THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR Kill
LING PATCH.
CUT UNDER SURFACE
over TWO YEARS REQUIRED
FOR KILLING WEED.
Again County Horticulturist Warns
Ranchers Against Allowing the
Plant 10 Get a FOOthOld.

County Horticultural Commissioners
Waite today cited an example of the
cost of eradicating wild morning glory
as an example to those who are not
careful in eliminating this weed as
soon as it appears.
TIE county spent $1040 for wages
and team hire alone for the eardl
cation of this particular patch, leav-
ing out the cost of chemicals and in
srection. Over two years were re-
oaired to kill out the weed. During
the entire time spent in its eradlca-
ton the wild morning glory never
showed above the ground.
4 ranch of forty acres many miles
from Ell Centre Cocation deleted by
censor) badly infested with the noN-
ious weed, was chosen by the state
1cr experiments in eradication, fol-
lowing the plan worked out at Davis,
i. e., tho surface cutting of the
! lant.
Mr.. Waite yesterday received the
report of the man who has been work
ing on this patch since April, 1915.
The worker pronounced the weed at
last radicated.
During all the time of cutting un-
Ger the surface of the ground posi-
lively no water was allowed on the
piece. with the exception of the little
rain which fell.
The state took over the ranch, al
lowing no cultivation or irrigation. The
report of eradication with the weed
cutter was as follows:
"April, 1915, plowed and disced the
piece. May to Is, 1915, used weed
cutter. June, 1915, every ten days,
used weed cutter, until March l, 1916.
April to September, 1916, used weed
cutter every eight days. October to
January, 1917, used weed cutter every
twelve days. From January l to pres
cnt time, used weed cutter every fiji
teen days. Results: Killed all MORN
ng glory on one patch
The wild morning glory is similar
TO the common flower of that name,
with the exception that it runs along
the ground and has a flower smaller
tnan the common variety, white iii
color.

Let's Be Kindly.

One Of life's little joys that lasts
from cradle to grave is just living IN
sweet accord with ones friends anG
nci2hbors, enjoying the same benefits
Of life, sharing the same tribulations,
and being kindly, sympathetic and
rseful.
Considering the cons of time that
have passed, and the cons that are
vet to come, our lives seem mighty
brief, and inconsequential, and it's 4
pleasant philosophy to possess, indi-
vidually and collectively, to believe
that our brief transitory visit on the
goo6 old earth should be filled with
as much happiness and wholesome en-
joyment as we can get oct Of it, both
tor ourselves and our neighbors.
The city board of trustees were
compelled to meet this morning to
forcibly repudiate unjust, unkind and
untrue attacks upon one Of their mem
members, Trustee A. n. Bucklin.
Mr.. Bucklin was charged with at
tempting to block the contribution Of
the city to the Liberty Loan fund,
" hen Mr.. Bucklin as actively favored
the proposition as did any other men,
Der of the board. He sought delib-
Grafton. He sought to make no rash
move. but to give to the nation the
lit that FL Centre was able to give,
and yet protect El Centre from any
emergency. He was representing the
people who voted for him, as they eI-
pccted to be represented.
Yet how unkind is a spirit that
seeks to embroil a commounity against
one OF its members. How malicious
and dangerous may such a spirit he
come, if a lie, or a personal preju-
Cice can be voiced to the hurt OF an
individual, a community or an ideal.
It's pleasant to think that down
here in this wonderful country we are
all friends; that we wish to mainatin
the kindliness Of nature which is ours
5y right; that we want to live in the
keen enjoyment of just living. Ua-
Kind and unjust childish attacks are
rot in accord with this plan of life
and will not be tolerated.
It's so much nicer to be kindly.
