nOxIOUS WEEDS
HIT HARD BLOW
Bills In Legislature TO Prevent
Mixing of Foreign Matter
With Seeds Is Pending.

Springfield. Ill. Feb. 13.-Nox-
fous weeds, including the dainty
morning glory, are hit hard blow
in identical bills introduced in the
Illinois house and senate regulat-
ing the sale and planting of agri-
cultural and grass seeds. The meas
ures are pending in the agricuItur-
al committee.
A bill intended to prevent sale of
seeds contaminated by foreign mat
ter, passed by the fiftieth general
assembly, was declared unconsti-
tutiOnal by the state supreme court
The measures now up are framed
to remove the objections.
Senator Harold Kessinger drew
up and introduced the senate bill
and Representative +. a. Mccarthy
of Elgin the house bill.
The measures provide that the
state department of agriculture be
charged with the responsibility of
making necessary tests and of
bringing about enforcement of the
law, which provides a fine ranging
from five dollars to five hundred
dollars for violation.
Each package of seeds and mix
lures of seeds exceeding ten pounds
in weight would bear a label stat
ing the name or mixture, name and
address Of the vendor, statement
of the purity of the seeds, year in
which grown, and if possible the
place grown. Sale of seeds for lawn
and special purposes would be pro-
hibtted where there was present
more than % per cent of foreign
matter, and vending would be IN
lawful where agricultural seeds
contained more than a half of one
per cent of noxious weed seeds.
Noxious weeds as applied to the
act include: buckhOrn, bracted
plaintain, Canada thistle, sheep sor-
rell, quack grass, curled dock, Rus
sian thistle, ox-eye daisy, wild mus
tard, clover dodder, alfalfa dodder,
field dodder, corn cookie and morn
ing glory.
Seeds defined by the bill are:
wheat, field corn, oats, rye, bar
ley, canes, red and mammoth aIsike,
sweet and other clovers, alfalfa,
and seeds of other Ieguminous field
crops, rape, timothy, blue grass,
orchard grass and all lawn seeds.
The department Of agriculture is
authorized to make a charge of
twenty-five cents for testing each
sample.
Prosecutions under the act are to
be brought through states attor-
neys in the counties where offenses
are committed.

To Remove Fruit Stains

When fruit stains are fresh pour
boiling water steadily through them
and they Will usually disappear. If the
water is hard, borax or ammonia in a
small quantity should be added TO the
water.
Fruit and wine stains, if dry, should
be soaked in cold water, like tea
stains. Then stretch the stained fabric
over a basin, rub with common salt
and pour boiling wafer through the
stain. Or 1t can be rubbed with lem
on, instead of using boiling water. Re

some strong borax and water, well
rfnsed, then hung out in the sunshine,
or better. left hanging out during a
frosty night, the stains will disappear.
The articles should be dripping wet
when hung out.
To Remove Grass Stains.
Grass stains will yield to the cologne
application, though a thorough bath
in alcohol is, perhaps, more certain.
Kerosene is another liquid that may
be applied successfully to grass stains,

Such a degree would meet the re-
