TUMBLEWEED is
A NATIVE EST
Only One of Many Now Present
that Originated in Northwest
Garry Many Seeds

The Tumbleweed, scientifically
known as amaranth, is the only
serious weed pest of the many
growing in the northwest which is
native to the section, according to
DR.. F. L. Pickett Of the state col.
lege botany department. The re.
mainder have been imported from
other parts of the continent OF
from foreign countries, he ex-
plains.
Weeds spread widely and In
many ways, according to DR.. Pick
EFT. MANY weeds produce small
light seeds that are carried by the
wind as easily as dust and great
many are imported in hay, in bed
ding of cattle cars or in packing
OF brick, tile and dishes. The most
important means of distribution
is through contamination of agri-
cultural seeds. Practically all grass
seeds, cereals and some vegetables
and flower seeds have weed seeds
mixed in them. Every year sees a
number of new weeds introduced
into Washington.
"a factor in the spread of weeds
is the great number of seeds pro-
duced by each plant. A Russian
thistle produces 10000 to 10000
seeds commonly for each FULL
grown plant and may produce as
many as 100000. 1 have weighed
and counted the seeds mature at
one time on a good-sized specimen
of the rough-pigweed and found
more than 228,00O.
ga well-developed Jim Hill may
produce a million seeds in one
season. Some weed seeds may re-
main deep in the ground after be-
ing plowed under and produce
plants if brought to the surface,
three, four, OR even ten years lat
er. He who plants a crop of weed
seed is like man who plants a
tree-he plants not only for him
self but for his children"
