II you saw an anarchist with blaz-

tending to set 1t on fire, what would
you do? If you saw several of his
companions In crime sneaking to your

would call for help TO extermnate the

The common barberry is a red-hand-
ed anarchist bush. 1t has long ca
reer of crime behind it. 1t has q long
er and more terrible career of crime
before it If we don't put stop to it.
1t has destroyed billions Of bushels of
wheat and other grains in the past.
1t will destroy billions Of bushels In
the future unless We destroy it. Den

barberry. Are you for it or against it?
We cannot save the wheat and keep

Brazips Anniversary.

The recent celebration of the ami
versary OF Brazilian independence
brings to mind several interesting
facts concerning this growing nation.
Brazil, with the exception of Cuba, Is
the youngest of the Latin-American
republics. Unlike Cuba. however,
Brazil enjoyed independence long be-
fore the change of government came.
Again, most unlike It's sister republics
of Spanish America. Brazil effected the
radical change without bloodshed.
Dom Pedro was wise. as well as a
lovable, monarch; when he saw that
the majority opinion favored q repub-
lican form of administration, he era-
clously abdlcated and retired from
public life. II only certain European
monarchs had possessed similar fore
sight and common sense but a few
years ago!
