ance on Part Of Farmer.

A good deal has been said about
weeds and all will agree that they are
most undesirable. No one cares to
grow them in crops and yet they grow,
and that luxuriantly, If unrestrained.
Keeping ahead Of the weeds requires
perseverance and correct knowledge
Of the best way to keep them down.

THOSE COPPER-TOED BOOTS
THAT WAS DEAR IN CHILDHOOD
They Are Merely Memories Now, But
Many of Us Wore Them Once.

Staid granddads of today can like
ly bark back to the supreme joy of
early youth when they first donned
a pair of copper-toed boots, some
three score years ago. 1t is interest
ing to learn that their inception was
due to Canadian, one Newman Sill
verthorne, whose brain was quicken
ed in this direction by his own ext
gencies in tramping through wild
country.
Naturally, boot manufacturers did
not wax enthusiastic over an innova-
ton that heightened the life of their
wares at such a small extra cost and
it was only by his own exertions in
advertising that he created a market
for a production that received the
benediction of many pater- families.
though his exclusive enjoyment of
the patent it lasted but six years and
was then promptly shelved by the
manufacturers.
Mr.. SilYerthorne is still enjoying
a green old age, under the loving
care of a daughter.
