WAR ON THE SOW
THISTLE DECLARED
BY COUNTY AGENT

That there are many patches OF
sow thistle going to seed in the city
limits Of Grand Forks is asserted by
D. B. Morris. county agent. and he is
asking cooperation In Graduating the
undesirable weed.
Farmers can hardly be expected
to make a fight against this pest"
Mr.. Morris said. when the city au-
thorities r not doing a share to
Keep this weed from going to seed"
The SOW thistle is very noticeable
on the highways on the outskirts Of
the city. Mr.. Morris says, and he
points out that this seed is being
blown on to the roads where it is
pounded into the dirt by rains. Autos
and other vehicles carry these seeds
to the surrounding county by the mud
sticking to the wheels, and right now
is the time to prevent the pest from
spreading. Mr. Morris says.
The sow thistle is going to seed at
the present time, the county agent
points out, and the fact that the seeds
are already maturing makes it desir-
able to burn the Towering plants at
once.

STATE LOSES $17,5oo,ooo
 DUE TO PLANT DISEASES.

A total loss of more than 17500,- GOO, due to plant diseases in Arkansas during the year 1919, is the report of sDr John A. Elliott, plant pathohlogist of the Experiment Station, in his an- nual summary for the Plant Disease Survey of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.
 The larger losses are distributed among the more important crops as follows: Cotton. $8,61OOOO; corn, s.. 510O00; wheat, $2,O9O,OOO; Irish pota- toes, $1,125,0 ,0OO apples, $1,O35 ,OOO; oats, $925,O0O; sweet potatoes, $685. GOO; peaches, $590,0OO The balance of the losses is made up in other crops such as rice, tomatoes, cabbage, etc.
 Losses due to apple and peach disases are largely controllable," says Dr. Elliott, although the diff culty of control varies greatly with seasonal conditions. Two-thirds of the loss in oats is due to smuts that could be controlled by the more gen. eral use of treated seeds. The larger losses in wheat were due in most part to leaf rust, owing to the unfavorable season over which the farmer had no control. Except such diseases as may be controlled by crop rotation the losses due to corn diseases are large ly beyond the control of the farmer and vary with the season. The dis eases of Irish and sweet potatoes may be controlled largely by good seed, seed treatment crop rotation, good storage and other sanitary measures.
