Quack Grass Spread a Menace.

Quack Grass Spread a Menace.
The spread of quack grass through
out the northwest is a menace. The
wet seasons particularly are favorable
to it's development. Quack grass is a
perennial and spreads both by seed and
root stocks, and for that reason is
particularly difficult to control.
Seed forms June Is to July 10, de-
pending on the locality, soil and eli
mate. The best time to attack the plant
is just after the seed forms. If quack
grass can be cut for hay just as it
comes into blossom, and removed from
the field, and the land plowed within a
week or ten days after. the blowing
being deep and the sod being turned
well, a good start toward eradication
can be made. Following the blowing
the land infested should be gone over
frequently enough to keep all parts
beneath the surface for the rest of the
season. A disk harrow is very good
tool for the purpose. In case the land
cannot be disked frequently enough to
keep the plants down, replowing later
in the fall will be advisable.
Quack gress eradication is task
that calls for continual watchfulness
and energy. There is no use of start
ing the job unless it can be followed
up. If it is followed up from July 1 to
October 1 a very complete job of
eradication can be performed.
In looking for quack grass it would
be we'll to watch also for other noxious
weeds, making as sure as possible that
none go to seed and that the root
stocks of perennials are prevented
from spreading.

Potato Wart Warning.

Potato wart, one of the most dan
gerous diseases of Irish potatoes, hav-
ing been discovered in the United
States, and therefore being, menace
to Minnesota's potato industry, the
plant pathology division of the depart
ment of agriculture, university of Min
nesota, is sending warnings to farmers
to be on the lookout for the disease.
In case the disease is discovered it
should be reported to the county agent,
to the plant pathology division at uni
versity farm, or to the plant disease
survey of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture at Washington,
D. c..
The disease may be recognized by
the presence of rough, spongy out
growths, brown at first but black and
decayed with age, on tubers, especially
at the eyes.

Frederick Schimming.

The following tribute and obituary
was furnished the Union by Rev. w.
E. Vogel, the pastor recently placed
in charge of Immanuel's German
Lutheran church, Princeton:
":Man that is born of woman is of
few days and full of trouble. He
cometh forth like a flower and is cut
down: he feeth also as shadow and
continueth not"
The truth of the above words we
have again experienced, when death
closed the eyes, and when we laid to
rest the remains of man well known
and highly esteemed in this communi-
ty. ~
Frederick Schimming, son Of VIM.
and Augusta Schimming, was born at
Howard Lake, MIMI, where he spent
his youth. He entered holy ma+ri-
mony with Miss Agnes Newman. The
Lord blessed them with four children,
two boys and two girls. One Of the
daughters preceded him to the grave,
and about Is years ago his wife died.
In 1908 he married Miss Matilda Ban
demer. To them one son was born.
Mr.. Schimming was successful
farmer, good husband and father
and for about twenty years men,
Der of Immanuel's Lutheran congre-
cation; a great part of the time of
his membership he served faithfully
as trustee. The Lord visited him
with many an affliction, yet he never
lamcnted, but bore it patiently, re-
mindful of the word of the apostle:
"And we know that all things work
together for good to them that love
God" On his last sick bed he found,
as he always did, comfort in the word
of God and was we'll prepared for his
last journey. He died on June 20,
weary of the life of this world, be-
lieving in his Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ, at an age of 40 years, 8
months and 9 days.
He left behind him his mourning
widow, three sons, one daughter, one
son-in-law, Otto Reimann, his par
ents, father-in-law, four brothers,
three sisters, a mourning congrega-
ton and many other friends.
The funeral took place on Sunday,
juno 22. Rev. Vogcl, the minister of
the congregation officiated in the
house, church and at the Lutheran
cemetery. The text of the funeral
sermon was Rev. 14-13.

Longest Air Trip in History.

The giant British dirigible RIA
moored at Roosevelt field, Mineola,
L. l., at 9:45 a. m. Monday, complet-
ing the first flight of lighter than
air craft across the Atlantic-the
longest air trip in history. The dis
lance covered is announced as 5000
miles, but counting the mileage forced
by adverse winds during the trip from
East Fortune, near Edinburgh, Scot
land, it is estimated that the dirigible
covered 1854 miles-3,69O to Trinity
Bay, N. F., and 1914 from there to
Mineola. The time consumed was 1O8
hours and IL minutes and the airship
brought 81 passengers, one a boy
stowaway, and a tortoise shell cat.
The big machine is now on it's way
to Scotland over the same course.

Of the City of Houston. HeZhad occu-
pied this office only short time when
the Sheriff of Harris County died. Mr..
Anderson's friends persuaded him to
make the race for the unexpired term
of Sheriff to which he was easily elect
ed. He was honored with reelection
seven times and served the people in
this important office for fifteen con-
secutive years. Four years ago, Mr.
Anderson declined reelection and re-
tired to private life. He cast his lot
among the people Of Houston and is

nothing seemed to help me only in

President Wilson
Has Best Day Since
He Was Taken Ill

Washington, Oct. 1S.-President
Wilson passed the best day he has
had since his present illness began
Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson, his
physician, said tonight. No oper-
alton will be necessary to relieve the
swelling of the prostate gland which
has complicated the case, and the
president is making slow, but salts
factory progress toward recovery
from his nervous exhaustion.
This was the conclusion reached
by the six attending physicians after
a consultation late today which last
ed more than an hour and half.
The decision that no operation was
necessary was made by DR.. Hugh
Young, the Baltimore specialist,
while DR.. F. X. Dercum Of Phila-
delphia, saw signs of improvement
in the presidents nervous condition.
All of the doctors were agreed that
he was making progress toward re-
covery.

UNION LEADER LEWIS
ATTITUDE UNCHANGED
Holds to Original Program, Includ-

Arbitrate While Strike
Order Stands.

Washington, Oct. 18.--There SEEM
ed little hope tonight of aveIting
the strike of half million bitumin-
Gus coal miners, called for November

After series Of conferences with
labor leaders here and telephone
talks with others in the central coal
territory, John l.. Lewis, president
of the United Mine Workers, an
nounced the miners would go out
unless all demands, including the five
day week, were granted.
The operators, standing by their
decision not to consider any pro-
posal looking to a shorter weekly
schedule, and refusing to open ne
gotiations unless the strike order
was withdrawn, charged that the
the miners were trying to freeze the
country into submission by insisting
upon acceptance Of impossible de-
mands."
"The strike will not be called off,"
Lewis declared.
eve will not arbitrate while the
strike order stands" said Thomas r.
Brewster, chairman of the operators
scale committee.
Meanwhile, pressure was being
brought to bear on both sides from
many quarters to adjust their diff
ferences. Lewis said there would be
enough coal on hand November / to
keep the country warm 80 days.
Secretary of Labor Wilson, at
whose invitation the scale committees
of the miners and operators will
meet him here Tuesday. declined to
comment on the negotiations, and
continued to hope that he would be
able to bring about peace.
Tonight President Lewis said re-
cent report by the federal trade COM
mite, revealed chat never before in
the history of the mining industry
have the operators been making such
astounding profits upon coal pro-
duced."
