STOP WEEDS
FROM SEEDING

prepared by the United States
Department Of Agriculture.)
Most persons do not realize
what an enormous number of
seeds are produced by weeds.
The number varies with differ
ent species. most kinds produc-
ing from one hundred to several
thousand seeds per plant. Some
weeds, such as wild carrot, bur-
dock and sow thistle, are capable
Of producing 10000 or more
seeds to the plant. Moreover.
not all weed seeds terminate at
once, but delay sprouting for
period, some of them for several
years. This Is the basis of the
old saying, "One years seeding
makes seven years wedding"

u. S. TO AID LYNDEN
FARMERS GET LABOR
VIII Bring In Workers From Other
Points; Establish Branch Office In
City

To assist the farmers of the Lyn-
den district to obtain labor to work
their farms adequately, the United
States Department of Labor has es-
tablished branch employment bur-
eau in Lyrden. Farmers will be re-
quested to keep this office informed
of their need for laborers, and the
government will undertake to supply
these needs.
with labor abundant" says the
Department, "the lack of organized
effort has been shown every year by
a shortage of men in some localities
with a corresponding glut in other
nearby communities. 1t can readily
be seen that the only remedy for
the conditions that have obtained is
more equitable distribution of the
so-called transient labor, and full
development of each communities
local resources
1t is this distribution that the De-
partment of Labor is undertaking.
One plan that has been suggested
is for the government to send sold
iers from the camps to the farms,
using only men with farming exper-
iencc, and this plen may be carried
out here.
William A. Bauman has been ap-
pointed to handle this employment
work, and Lynden farmers are asked
to notify him at once of their needs.

LYNDEN WORKS HARD
TO PASS BOND QUOTA
Makes Vigorous Effort To Go Over
Top BY Saturday Night; Boards
In Session Daily

A powerful effort to bring the tot
al of Liberty Loan subscriptions oy-
er the top of the citys' quota in
single week will be made tomorrow
and Saturday to win the honor of
flying the Third Liberty Loan flag
awarded towns that are able to ex-
ceed their allotment.
A good half OF the total is already
to Lynden's credit, following a pat
riotic response generally to the gov
ernments appeal for funds to carry
on Liberty's battles, but in order to
raise the total practically every in
diyidual who has not yet subscribed
must purchase the total allotted to
him by the County Board.
Two local committees are in scs-
sion daily at the Lynden State Bank,
and at Liberty Loan headquarters.
and purchases may be made through
them. Appointments with these two
boards have been assigned by mail.
but any who have been missed may
call on the board any time during the
week. A careful check is being made
on all subscriptions, and a full re-
port of details will be made to the
state authorities. In few cases are
the boards meeting with outright re-
fusals. and in these, opportunity has
been given the individuals to recon-
slider before final action is taken.
The Treasury Department will ar
range an honor roll showing the
names of the subscribers to the Loan.
II. A. Baker, proprietor of the
Lynden Cannery, sprang pleasant
surprise on the local committee by
sending in his check for two thous-
and dollar subscription.
