WEED AND FIELD
SEED ARE MIXED
Sour Dock Worst Of 125 Varieties
Found BY Careful Examination,
Says Expert.

One hundred and twenty-five varie
ties of weed seed would be found by 6
careful examination of field seeds solo
in Kentucky during the year, accord
ing to Prof. E. c. Vaughan, Of the bot
any department of the Kentucky Agri-
cultural Experiment Station. OF these
he says, sour dock well might be
called the worst, with rib grass, yell
low dock, plantain, chickenweed, pep
pergrass, cheat, with grass, dodder
and Canada thistle, joining 1t to make
up the ten varieties found most fire.
quently. Sour dock sometimes is call
ed sheep sorrel or red sorrel.
Prof. Vaughn's statement regarding
weeds was made in reply to a question
put to him by newspaper man who
had noted the rankness Of weeds in
fields which had been plowed and al
lowed to stand for several months.
When plowed most of the fields show
ed no signs of weeds, but within few
months was covered with them. Many,
he said, are perennials and fragments
o froot remaining in the soil result in
a growth as soon as the weather and
proper season comes around.
Speaking Of the characteristics of
the most common weeds and how to
get rid Of them, Prof. Vaughn said:
"Sour dock we'll might be called the
worst weed. 1t is a perennial and is
propagated abundantly by its running
rootstocks as we'll as by seeds 1t
thrives on slightly sandy, acid soils,
and often crowds out useful crops
The best way of controlling it seems
to be by lining so that field crops will
grow with sufficient vigor to smother
the sour dock. The seeds are found
most frequently in clovers.
RIB grass, perennial, also thrives
on light sandy soils. The seeds are
found mostly in clovers and alfalfa.
When only a few plants occur In a
field they may be removed by hand
digging, but when considerable
quantity of plants are found it is best
to pillow and cultivate until they are
destroyed The thickened rootsocks Of
this weed must be thoroughly removed
in all efforts of digging and cultiva-
ton.
yellow dock is a perennial and is
bad pest abount yards and farm out
buildings. The seeds are common in
clover and alfalfa seeds; the plants
harbor both the melon louise and the
corn root louise. Yearly pulling aid
deep grubbing are required to destroy
them and this must be done before the
seeds mature.
"Plantain, a perennial, is a serious
pest in manure land seeded to clovers'
1t also is found about yards and waste
places. Continuous cultivation until
the plants disappear is the best rem
edy.
"Chickweed, an annual, blooms al
most the entire year and ripens seeds
40 early that 1t is digicult to clean out.
1t Is a host of the melon louise. The
best control Is a winter crop such as
ry or hairy veatch.
"Cheat Is a winter annual and is
most troublesome In wheat fields. the
seeds fall to the fround where they
ina yremain and maintain their vital
ity for several years, coming up when
conditions are favorable. When fields
are infested in this way they should
be cultivated continuously for several

Oscar Strauss, is planning an early
return to grand opera. When she was
in that rare atmosphere before. she
was comparatively unimportant in the
overwhelming surroundings. But her
musical comedy experience - and her
success in 1t - has given her Just the
training necessary, she believes, for
the climbing Of that more aspiring
ladder. Last season, Miss Painter was

Manager Neil Benzie was hurriedly sent
for by the other indignant members Of the
cast and the offending lines and situations
Of the play were read TO him after the
ladies' had left the stage
The hrst scene that was objected to was
at the very beginning of the play, when
Miss Peckham, as the heroine, is visited
nv an extremely unethical stage doctor.

supposed to say to him
Now what could be more harmless than

II was a good thing that she ended the
rehearsal when she did because other ter
rible things would have happened in quick
succession. Right afterward The author,
Mr.. Hopwood, nstructs her TO lay her hand

For he. too. was supposed to know the
doctor was only nerve specialist.
There, you see, was the subtle wicked
ness of those evil lines-what the Asbury
Park audience, would gather from that
revelation is that nerve specialist who
behaves like an osteopath is a nerve
cpecialjst in quite another sense.

All left the theatre in a body and
marched down the main street to the office
OF stephen Pavley, owner of the, theatre
and prominent real estate man of Asbury
Park. When the male members of the cast
drew him aside and whispered what Miss
Peckham and Mr.. West had been asked
to do. he. too. was indignant and ordered
that all rehearsal of the play stop imme-
diately.
That night Mr.. Pawley addressed the
audience of the Lyric Theatre from the
stage, on which another play was shown.
He told them that the Lyric Players had
been imposed on and so had the good peo-
pie of Asbury Park. And when he told
them of the players united stand for right.

theatre than there has been in many and

All advertising OF our Little VIE was

comments on Manager Pawley's stand.
As result. many residents of the town
who were formerly suspicious Of all thea
