Many Ney Suggestions
 to Replace World Jazz

PHILADELPHIA, Auf .13.-Rad'o and the newspapers are playing an important part in obtaining a word to take the place of Jazz. Mayor Da- wis, head of the supposedly largest orchestral organization in the word, whose name is familiar to millions of radio fans recently offered prize of one hundred dollars for wrru more truly descriptive of modern n1u- sic. The contest closes Sept. and, up to the present time, more than 1000 new words have been submit ted for this purpose, which is a sig nal proof of the lively interest arous- ed among lovers of music and danc- ing by this subject.
 It is interesting to note the trend of thought emanating from the vari- ous palts of the country. urban and rural. To take a few at random, Ohio for inss ance, ever mindful of prizes, political and otherwise, contributes following; From Cincinnati, Wewfan, Peppo, Sopp. Meyertune, Ufon; while Cleveland speaks right out and says Hades Farmonies. Travelling east ward, he City of Brotherly Love of fers Tx iera, while little old Rhode Island hobs right up in class and says Syncodavis-just like that! and in this word there would seem to be some logic. Wilmington. Delaware, demuroly suggests Rhapsodo7n and Rigsody while Washington. b. C., probably influenced by foreign con- sulates, thinks su/. names as From Fron, En Cadence, Melody Rythmic and Rythmic might be appro- priate.
 And now 10 the sunny south where New Orleans, ever sanguine and romantic as becomes it's Latin strain, suggests Elysian, Eide and Paradisa; while old Virginia, rem iniscent of the days befo' de wah, Sah, when negro minstrelsy and Ethiopian fantasy lent fanciful col bring to the land beyond the Mason and Dixon line, contributes Swazee, Syncosway and Glideola.
 Then with one bound to the Paci- fc coast, where San Francisco has an idea that such creations as Gee Miss, Nah Song and Snycomelo might do. And so, too, they might, did they not smack too strongly of a free fight in Chinese laundry.

She fled the palace ,eloping with an Italian pianist, leaving her five children and husband behind. A short time la ter, baby was born at the time the King divorced her. After deal of wrangling the King recognized the child as the Princess Monaco, but re- fused to recognize the mother.

Farm Bureau Page
Edited by the County Agent

erhemlock and locoweed are poison
! GUS to stock; and the barbed seeds
of squirreltail grass and porcupine
grass penetrate the noses and mouths
of live stock, causing painful sores,
1t is difficult to estimate the dam
age of weeds, but 1t Is probable that
they cost the American farmer sew
eral hundred million dollars every
year.
Good rotations and efficient farm
practices will subdue weeds.
Three main principles of weed con-
troll must be observed: % Prevent
weeds from maturing seed on the
farm; CD prevent the introduction
of weed seeds on the farm, and 60
prevent perennial weeds from max
ing top growth.
The principles are the main thing;
the particular method employed is
of lesser Importance.
Next to the principles ranks the
man behind them. Many men make
a start to clear their farms of weeds
but give up too soon. Often the
campaign is stopped when success is
in sight, and the weeds soon recover.
Clearing 1arm OF weeds, eSpe-
cially perennials, is no easy task; it
requires more than average intelli-
gence and perseverance. If, how
ever, one faithfully carries out plan
of attack, based on the above princi-
pies of weed control, he can prac-
tically rid his farm of weeds without
great amount of extra labor and
expense.
Weed control is frequently COM
munity problem, and for the greatest
permanent success cooperation
among farmers is required.
Control demonstrations and infor-
nation on the Identification of weeds
and weed seeds will be given in the
various communities during the
week beginning July 7, by c. B. ALL
son, the state seed commissioner.
