Town Boards Responsible

Lots of folks don't seem to rea
ljze that the situation with respect
to the enforcement of the Noxious
Weed Law is different from what
it has been for the past twenty
five or more years. One item in
particular is provoking a lot of
discussion. This is the RESPONSE
bility on the part of the township
boards for the cutting of weeds
along the roadsides. Uptil the
passage of Chapter 32O-S. F. 422,
Laws of 1921, roadside weeds
we're supposed to have been cut
by the AUDITING property owners
and the town board members, viii
lage council and such officers were
authorized to notify the property
owners to destroy the weeds. Now,
under the provisions Of Chapter
800 (cited above) it is obligatory
on the town boards to cut or cause
to be cut all noxious weeds along
the road side.
(Sec. ~ The governing board OF
each town, village. borough or
city, shall at the expense of such
municipality, cause all noxious
weeds standing or growing upon
any public road or highway there
in to be cut down between the
first day of June and the 18th day
of October following as often as
may be necessary to prevent the
ripening and scattering of seed OF
noxious weeds:
Obviously the members of the
town boards did not wish to offend
friends and neighbors by ordering
them QUITO cut the weeds even
though a large majority of the
farmers favor the procedure as
provided in former laws. AS a
result most of the roadsides were
neglected until weed seeds had
ripened. Thus the old story
"Everybody's business is nobody's
business
Now it is to be different. The
law plainly states that the cutting
of roadside weeds is up to the
town board" ~ of the respective
township and the administration
of the law is in the hands of state
officials. Hence no danger of
creating neighborhood ''feeling'
is likely to develop. The local
weed Inspector notifies the men,
bers of the town board just as he
would a farmer or city lot owner.
If they do not comply with the
notice and get the weeds cut, the
law may take It's course.
The new law was passed on the
assumption that united action was
the basic principle in noxious weed
control. Those who want 20 see
weeds under control and volun-
tarlIy attempt to keep them IN
check will welcome the law and its
enforcement. Those who are in.
different or neg'ectful of weeds
will be willing to be reminded and
will fall into line for the universal
effort. Those who do not sense
their responsibility to their fellow
men must be reminded of the fact
and be brought to the point of
realizing that this weed problem is
not any one individuals, but one
demanding the attention of every
land holder-country or city, and
of those who have charge of lanes
such as public parks, roads, streets
and alleys. J: j., %"..

Chinese Festival to
Moon Is Ages Old

HONOLULU, T. Il, Dec. 20.-One
Of the privileges enjoyed by residents OF
our mid Pacific Territory is that Of wit
Messing the ceremonials and customs OF
the always fascinating Orient.
One of the most interesting OF these
ceremoniaIs is the observance Of tie
Chinese festival of the Full Moon, marked
in the Chinese calendar as the fifteenth
night Of the eighth moon, which com
menced this year on Sept. 10. This festi-
val. originated by the Emperor Ming
Hwang Of the Tang dynasty in the eighth
century, as now a major holiday of the
Chinese people and is observed by them,
rich and poor alike, the world over.
In Honolulu, where the September
moon is perhaps 4 little brighter and
more glorious than at any other place in
the world the feast Of the Full Moon is
observed principally by the exchange of
gifts among the Chinese residents and by
feasting on the night when the moon is
at its full On that night throughout
HonOlulus Chinatown tables are set in
the moonlight and are loaded with moon
cakes, grapefruit, tarO, chestnuts, Hchee
nuts, sweetmeats and other delicacies.

SUN DUST MAY
PREVENT RADIO
Scientist Fears Interplanet
System Won't Work.

LONDON. Dec. 20.-Electriied dust
thrown off by the sun forms an atmos-
pheric crust about the earth about 1OO
miles away which prevents wireless
waves from escaping into infinite space.
according to Prof J. A. Fleming, Uni
yersity College, London, whose work in
wireless research IS known all over the
world. The screen made by the dust, he
saws. acts as q sort Of wireless spea king
tube and enables waves used for long
distance work-which are about ten
miles in IenCth-to travel 5000 and r.
600 miles. If It were not for that screen
according to the professors theory, the
wireless energy thrown out by the big
sending towers would not cling to the
earth, but would pass away and be lost.
When coming in contact with the screen
he waves are detected and guided be-
tween it and the earth's surface until
hey. reach the receiving station for which
hey were intended.
The electrified dust is thrown off by
the sun in immense quantities and the
pressure Of light-which exerts total
pressure Of 10000 tons on the whole sur
lace Of the earth-is strong enough to
overcome the backward gravitational pull
of the sun and so drive the dust par
ticles on the long journey toward this
globe.
The dust attains great velocity in the
freedom Of the empty spaces and gen
crates enough energy so that single
handful would drive the biggest ocean
liner for twenty-fOur hours. Each par
eicIe bears an electric charge from the
sun and on reaching the outposts Of our
atmosphere friction slows 1t down, and
thus floating layer or conducting
screen Is formed which is an unseen
blessing to radio engineers. Professor
Fleming. although he holds no positive
views on interplanetary communication
by wireless, says that the moon Is untt
Cor Iong-distance radio communication
because It has no dust screen about It's
surface such as the earth has-Copy-

are about 100 county agents, at present,
so that the upbuilder is rather thinly
spread over the superficial area of the
country His salary, and he will never
get rich on it, is paid jointly by the Fed
eral Government, the State and the
county.
He is distinctly an adviser, which COM
plicates and increases his troubles, as no
one vet ever wanted advice, and more
particularly as the county agent was not
asked for by the farmers in the begin
ming but rather wished upon them from
the outside.
Telling the farmer what crops to grow,
what rotation to use, how to feed and
care for his livestock are simple enough
propositions provided the farmer is will
ing to listen, since the county agent s
advice is not the flimfam of the pro-
fessional efficiency expert, but the re-
suit Of study and experience.
If he makes good and justities his job,
as perforce he must do, he naturally

RESEARCH NEVER STOPS
BY ARCHER WALL DOUGLAS.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 2O.-It was So
crates who said the man who best
engaged in running it. Maybe that
is why the man on the outside knows so
much more about any business than he
on the inside especially as relates to
farming.
Every one seeks to tell the farmer how
to manage a farm, but the only one who
tries this in person and gets away is
the county agricultural agent. Maybe
this is because he speaks as one having
authority. He has mans job. As a
calling it is only about ten years old and
eame about as the consequence of the
general realization that agriculture, the
most important business in the world,
had until lately tendency to follow the
ways of tradition and inheritance rather
than those of experimentation and re-
search.
