Comes a rain and the weeds prevent
the sun and wind from drying out our
roads, thereby renderin them soft and
concerned they unduly increase the
cost of maintaining the roads. This
should interest every taxpayer in the
county.
Repent in the Winter
"Weeds are more Of nuisance than
that. They cause more snow drifts on
our roads than all other causes COM
bined. 1t does not take very big
snow drift to block a road and make
it impossible for the winter. Most
Of these drifts could be prevented if
the weeds causing them were cut in
due season. Weeds are therefore a
menace to all who are obliged of nee
essity to travel a road during the win
ter time. To my way Of thinking, it
is just as important to a community's
welfare that road be pas5able in the
winter as in the summer Just as
many people out in the country need
a doctors services in the winter as in
the summer and perhaps more Just
as many people die and have to be
buried, and perhaps more. Probably
as many are born and have to be ush-
cred into this world through a physi-
clans care as in the summer. And
without any question of doubt 1t Is
more necessary that farmers and their
sons and daughters be able to get over
the roads in the winter time to their
social and educational gatherings for
that is the time when the pressure Of
their farm work is lightest on them
and they have the opportunity to at
tend their meetings.
Compulsion Should Be Unnecessary.
''In a county like Lyon county,
blessed as it is with people as progress
sive and intelligent as our population
is, it should not be hard to urge the
landowners and farmers to cut the
weeds along the highways There is
a state law which says in brief, that no
person owning, occupying, or c0ntroll-
ing land abutting on a highway shall
allow any weeds of any kind to pro-
duce seed upon such adjoining half of
the highway. The chairman of each
town board is empowered to enforce
the provisions of the law. Upon writ
ten complaint made to the chairman
that weeds are growing upon lands
within his jurisdiction in violation of
the law, he shall forthwith inspect the
premises, and, if the complaint be well
founded, he shall cause written notice
to be served upon the person permit
ting the same, directing him to COM
ply with the provisions of this law,
within six days after such service. If
the notice be not obeyed within six
days, the chairman shall cause the
weeds to be destroyed and pay the
cost of the town road funds and certi-
fly the amount thereof, with a descrip-
ton of the premises to be charged, to
the county auditor, who shall extend
the same upon the tax list, as an ad-
ditional tax upon said land, unless the
sum be repaid by the owner or occu-
pant before October LIST next ensuing.
Upon the request of any taxpayer, the
county attorney shall prosecute any
person violating the provisions of the
law, or refusing to comply with any
notice given pursuant thereto, and any
officer neglecting to perform any of

the right of way of the county and
state aid roads. There is a strip along
side of these roads from the shoulder
of the road to the two rod line, about
twenty-one feet in width, where weeds
noxious and otherwise, of all kinds
native to this climate, brazenly dis
port themselves.
Weeds and Crops.
"Consider weeds first from the
standpoint of the crop raiser. These
strips of land along the road are to
the crops on adjoining acres what dis
eased tOnsils are to the human being.
AS germs lodge in the inflamed tOnsil,
thrive and multiply there, and spread
their poison through the human sys-
TEN, so the seeds and pollen from nox
ious weeds lodge on the right of way,
take root and thrive because they are
not cut or plowed down and eventually
spread their infection to the lands
abutting on the right of way. The
crop raiser should therefore be vitality
in those weeds.
Effect on Roads.
"Now consider them from another
lngle. The weeds in the summer
crow shoulder high in many places.

'"Tanlac has put an end to troubles

fetal duty imposed upon him thereby.
Contrast Is Noticeable.

"The law is quite thorough enough
on the matter of weeds. However, it
is to be hoped that every farmer and
landowner, out Of regard for the di-
rect accruing to himself and the bene-
fit that will be derived by the COM
n1unity at large, will cut his weeds
without any compulsion of the law. In
closing wish to say that many farm
ers have already cut their weeds. To
these l wish to extend my heartfelt
for their public spirit
and their sense of orderliness. One
cannot help but contrast the attractive
appearance of their farms with those
where the weeds have not been cut"
