Saturday about n cases of influenza
were reported at Mt. ST. Scholastica's
Academy. None of the cases are seri-
GUS and the epidemic appears to be a

hours. The school work has been

NOW is THE TIME
TO BEGIN ON THE DANDELION
This is the time of the year when
the ubiquitous dandelion begins to
push its rosette of leaves into sight
ppon the lawn and this will soon be
followed by the blossoms and later by
the seed heads" says B. o. Longyear
of the Colorado Agricultural College
1T has been found that IL the dande-
lions are dug an inch or more below
the crown that they will not bloom
and will go to seed again during the
season. This makes it possible to pre-
vent the reseeding of ones lawn from
plants growing on the premises. which
is an important control measure An
old chisel about one inch wide makes
a good implement for the purpose, as
it is stiff enough to enable q person to
pry up large plants. Soaking the
lawn shortly before digging facilities
the removal of the root, which in some
cases will pull out entirely. Use the
tops for greens or give them to the
chickens"
