ANNUAL WEED
MEET AT ASK0v
Township, County and Vii
1age Officials Meet
Friday.
State and Federal Agricu1-
tura1 Men Present
Information.

The annual weed meeting for the
township chairmen, village mayors or
presidents, and county commissioners
was held Friday afternoon, June 6, at
the village hall of Askov.
N. B. Ofelt, state weed inspector,
representing the State Department of
Agriculture, spoke on weed Identified
ton and eradication, and on the state
weed and seed laws.
First of all, he said, it is essential
different weeds are and he very ably
showed what thy looked like by means
of some interesting charts and actual
specimens of many common weeds.
Secondly, in order to get the most
out of the work spent in getting rid
of these weeds, the nature of the
plants must be studied in order that
eradication methods may be planned
accordingly. The poisoning time of
the weeds, he pointed out, is the time
when they are the weakest due to the
fact that the root stalks are then
practically all used up in making
seed. Therefore, it is evident that
the blOssoming time is the best time
to get after the weeds, said Mr.. Ofelt.
Methods such as the use of sodium
chlorate were also discussed and Mr.
Hammargren, the county agent, gave
few pointers on the use of the chem
ical)
In closing, Mr.. Ofelt stressed the
use of clean seed and that no seed
house, seed dealer, or farmer is al
lowed to sell seeds unless they have
been tested for purity and termination.
1t is also important that all such
seeds are tagged properly. Therefore,
everyone should make use of the State
Seed Testing laboratory and send in
the samples early enough to avoid the
rush which comes in the spring.
S. p. SwensOn, of the United States
Department of Agriculture, followed
Mr.. Ofet and talked on and showed

PLANS FOR TRIP
NEAR COMPLETION

The time for the Askov creamery
excursion to the Land OLakes plant
in Minneapolis is drawing near and
about 100 people have registered to
take part The committee in charge
advises that those who intend to go
should meet not later than a. m. on
the morning of June 20, the day set
for the trip, in the block in front of
the creamery in view of the fact that
it will take considerable time to get
everybody seated in the cars and the
banners distributed and fastened on.
A few more are expected to register
and can be accommodated with the
prospect in view that it will be worth
any ones time. Efforts at a friendly
alliance with the weather man for the
day will be made so that all may en-
joy the trip to the fullest extent and
on account of the outing cream checks
will be payable at the bank on Mon
day, June 16.
The committee urges everyone to
make the trip and to help represent
the Askov community. The trip to
the city will be made via Highways
No. 1 and IS, while the return trip
will be made on No. through Bra
ham and Mora, where the large new
creameries will be visited.

and warned that blister rust kills the
white pine of all ages. 1t is slow
acting disease that might be COM
pared to the human disease, cancer.
1t will kill small seedlings in two
years and will eventually kill older
trees.
To pine owners that desire to pro-
tect their white pine stands from Bills
ter rust the state and federal govern
ments are cooperating in furnishing
one man free of charge to aid those
owners in doing control work, said
Mr.. Ritter and advised that the white
pine because of its utility, heavy yield
and ease of management is one of the
most important trees in Minnesota.
Farmers in clearing land should
keep part of the farm for woOdlOt.
If the woodlot is given some of the
thought and care that is given to the
other farm crops it will be very
profitable part of the farm. Wood
products are the one agricultural crop
that has not fluctuated in price the
past twenty years. In fact wood pro-
ducts prices have been gradually in
creasing the past twenty years.
County Agent Hammargren was also
present at the meeting and advised
that. he would cooperate in weed era
dication.

some interesting pictures in behalf of
the Burberry Eradica alton campaign.

some interesting pictures in behalf of
the Burberry Eradication campaign.
He stated that it is very important
to eradicate all the barberry bushes
in Minnesota because not only do they
spread rust for many miles but if
allowed to spread as they have in the
past before the eradication campaign
began, they would eventually become
as thick as the gooseberries which
are now growing in the wild wooded
areas. He cited examples of this in
the southeastern quarter of the state.
1t is therefore very essential, he
said, that everyone get acquainted
with the bush and that if anyone has
any bushes on his property or knows
of any such bushes, that they be i'm
mediately reported to the county agent
or to the Burberry Office, University
Farm, st. Paul. He also stressed
the fact that the barberry is classed
as noxious weed and that it is the
duty of township chairmen to check
up on the barberry as we'll as other
weeds.
Lastly, he explained that any boy
or girl who finds a common barberry
bush and sends a branch of it to
either the county agent or the Bar
berry Office, University Farm, ST.
Paul, will receive handsome bronze
medal. Therefore the speaker adj
vised the boys and girls to go out and
see how many bushes they can find.
L. B. Ritter, state blister rust con-
troll leader, representing the Mime
sofa State Forest Service and The
United States Department of Agricul-
ture spoke concerning white pine Bills
ter rust and its control methods.
Blister rust says Mr.. Ritter is a
parasitic fungus plant spending its
life on white pine, on current and
gooseberry bushes. Spores which may
be considered tiny seeds, are produced
on the white pine in the spring
These spores are carried by the wind
for many miles to the leaves of cur
rant and gooseberries. During the
summer a second type of spore ap-
pears ON the infected leaves of the
currant and gooseberry bushes. These
spores carry the disease to the leaves
of other currant and gooseberry bush
es. Spores produced in the late sum-
mer and early fall on these bushes
spread the disease back to healthy
white pine. These spores will infect
pine within 900 feet of the bushes on
which they are grown. Spores pro-
duced on the leaves of the cultivated
or European black currant will in
feet pine a mile away
1t costs 10 to so cents an acre to
remove the wild bushes from within
and near pine stands, said Mr.. Ritter
