too large a proposition when they

everything to lose and nothing to
gain, risking injury to players and
putting themselves in a position to
lose prestige in the big Thanksgiving

and consequently the gameness OF
the Tenth Warders has gained the
popular favor Of the fans and when
the diminutive purple team trots out
on the field Il IS a safe bet that 90

CONTROLLING DANDELIoNs,
A TROUBLESOME LAWN WEED

Dandclions are among the most wide
ly spread lawn pests, but are particu
larly troublesome in the northern half
of the country, and sometimes become
so bad that the best method of eradi-
cation is to plow or spade the lawn
and reseed it. But the United States
department of agriculture advises
this method except in the most extreme
cases. The general care of the lawn
is important in controlling all lawn
weeds. including the dandelion-mow-
ing, rolling, fcrtilizing and watering.
In other words, everything which con
tributes to the growth of the desired
grasses will end to combat weeds.
In small lawns cutting the indvid.
ual plants at least three inches below
the ground at least twice year is fre-
Iuentlv the most satisfactory method
of control. 1t does little good to cut
them shallow The best time to cut is
n tie spring, when the dandelions are
in early bloom, and again late in the
summer. On large, heavily infested
areas where the stand of grass is Wig
orous, spraying with q solution of iron
sulphate, one and one-half pounds to
gallon Of water, is practical, especially
on bluegrass lawns. 1t has not been
found successful in Bermuda grass, red
top or bent grass.
Spray five times, the first time just
as the blossoms unfold, and at inter
walls of month thereafter. 1t kills
the tips of the grass and kills white
clover entirely, but it will eradicate
the dandelions to such an extent that
the surviving plants can easily be re-
moved the following year. In small
areas, or as a follow-up means after
spraying, a good method of killing dan
delions is to apply tablespoonful Of
kerosene or gasoline on the crown Of
individual plants. Dry salt may also
be used effectively on cut surfaces.
The best way to handle pastures in.
Tested with dandelions is to improve
the stand of grass by judicious fertil
izing, seeding and pasturing, 80 that
the weed will be crowded out. Dandc-
lions do not infest well-managed pas
lures containing thick, luxuriant
stand Of grass.

II dom know. They may use it on

sister about an expression used on

to go as fast as possible.

That type of man we know as die
tator, and in our form of government
we have no use for such man.
President Harding has shown all
the men with whom he has come N

3 sincere, capable man, who realizes
that his job as pilot of the Ship of
State is real man S job, and EXPECTS
every other man. who is working on the
ship to work with him for the good of
the entire bunch. And let me tell you,
Pilot Harding knew that his ship must
go 'Full Speed Ahead when he was
picked for the job. He didn't just
take anybody for his crew. He took
his time and picked crew that falls
right in line with the idea of doing
things TODAY and not tomorrow.
That is why he is able to get quick
action when he gives the signal, Full
Speed Ahead
cts just as 1 have told you before,
Jack, you can't get team work if the
members of the team aren't the kind
of men who realize the bigness of their
jobs. Neither can you get full speed.
But if they are men who are on the
job every minute and are working with
their captain, then they can't help but
win. 1t is the same way with our
government today. Pilot Har1ing
picked men like himself, who want
speed and team work, and he is get
ting the rsults. There couldn't be
more of a speed king than the post
master general, Will Hays, who has
been called human dynamo Secre-
tary Denby, former officer of the
United States Marine Corps, naturally
knows the value of team work and
speed. He is real sailor and q COM
mander and is making things hum in
.he navy. Secretary Hughes is unlike
many lawyers. He won It stand for de-
lay, and therefore, although most of us
may not reailze 1t, our great foreign
problems are being put through with
amazing speed and with the results
that should have been accomplished
long ago. Then there is Secretary of
War Weeks. He is man Of long
training in business, who goes right
after the problems of the war depart
ment and sees ahead those things that
must he accomplished.
"But it is not only the heads Of the

realize the work to be done. For the
