rum:
"An old Cape Cod settler made both
boats and coffins. One day he was
called upon to make coffin to be
finished in two days. The old fellow
demurred because he was busy max
ing boat. But the need for the coffin
was imperative, SO 1t occurred to the
insistent customers that New Eng

Forthcoming. The old fellow took a
swig and agreed that he reckoned
he would have to accommodate the

to find the old man asleep in the cor

ready, resting on two chairs. But the
old captain had put a centerboard in

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The United States Department Of
Agriculture has set on foot what Is
intended to be the most comprehen-
sive weed survey ever undertaken. Up
to date comparatively little is known
of American farm weeds. They are
classified In botanies and herbariums,
but there are no definite data in re-
gard TO their spread; the prevalence
OF any particular weed in any local
ity; the amount of annual damage
new weeds, increase of old species;
or local methods of eradication.
To supply the need for such data
the section of weed investigations has
sent QUESTIONABLE to all the more
than 1000 county agents of the de-
partment. This questionable asks the
names of five worst weeds in each
county, in order of their Importance
the methods, If any. used by farmers
to combat these weeds; and what
weed problems are especially serious
in any particular county.
Comparatively few native American
weeds have given farmers serious
trouble, but new varieties are con-
stantly arriving in foreign seed and
through other sources. Some of these
have become such pests that entire
farms have been abandoned to them.
A canvass of 200 representative east
ern farmers showed that an average
of % days year is spent at the busi-
est season in trying to get rid of
weeds. Investigations by the bureau
OF plant industry over a number of
years are taken to indicate that cul-
tivation after the seedbed is prepared
has no other use than to destroy
weeds. If this theory proves correct
1t will add more heavily still to the
annual expense chargeable to weeds.
II Is the purpose of the department
to use the projected survey as basis
of operation in directing widespread
war on the weeds now here, or the i'm
portation of any new ones, and to
seek any local eradication method,
which may be worth general dissem-
ination.

Preparing Rag Dolls According to the
Improved Method.

ture, say specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
They affect the kernels of corn in
such way that while they may germi-
nate they often will produce sickly,
diseased plants which may die In early
stages or produce infected corn. These
diseases weaken the plants at the low
er joints. and If they come to maturity
the damage is perpetuated.
1t is necessary for farmers wishing
to avoid corn root rot to germinate
kernels from every ear of corn to be
used for seed. The simplest method
of making test is by means Of an
improved rag-dOll germinator. This,
in its essential features, consists of
nothing more than a broad strip Of
muslin backed by moistureproof fiber
paper. Rows of seed kernels are
placed on the cloth which Is rolled
up and left in warm box. The re-
suits are, of course, checked against
the ears from which the kernels were
taken, and only perfect, or nearly per-
feet, ears are kept for seed. This
germinator is very simple and fur
nishes practically complete test.
Bleached or unbleached muslin can
be used for the rag doll. The cloth,
which usually comes in a 54-inch
width, is torn across into Pinch
strips, 81 inches long. Before being
used the cloth is boiled, and it should
be damp when the seeds are placed
on it. This cloth Is laid on strip
of glazed paper, little longer than
the cloth, to allow folding over at the
ends, fresh newspapers being placed
on the table under the paper to avoid
infection.
About 8 kernels are then taken from
each ear and. beginning at the butt,
are laid In rows across the muslin
strip. so that when the strip is rolled
up and placed in n terminating box
the tips Of the seed will be down
ward. The rag dolls are sprinkled
twice daily, and at the end of Z days
are taken out, unrolled, and in
spected. The appearance of the
sprouts is a guide to the quality of
the seed. If more than one seed shows
signs of infection, the infected ear is
thrown out. If the farmer has enough
corn 1t is best to throw out an ear for
a single bad kernel
Destroying the stubbie.
Root rot is carried over in stubble,
and every effort should be made to de-
stroy or pillow under as much stubble
as possible. Increasing the fertility
of the soil and crop rotation have also
been found beneficial. One difficulty
about rotation as remedy is that root
rot affects corn and wheat and in
many localities is always present on
the farm. For this reason the de-
partment is anxious that rag-doll germ
inators be put into general and intelli-
gent use, and the season started with
lean seed.
