IA COUNTIES ADOPT
REDWOOD COUNTY PLAN
Southwestern Minnesota in Ex-
tensive.PrOgram of Weed
Eradication

AS one of their major agricultural
undertakings, fourteen southern and
southwestern Minnesota counties
have adopted the Redwood county
plan of weed control and eradication,
according to County Agent Nate II.
Bovee.
Although the Minnesota Weed law
provides for means of checking weed
spread from farm to farm by requir-
ing every landowner to prevent weed
seeds from going to seed, and pro-
vides penalties in case this is not
done, the law has been poorly enforc-
ed in some townships.
By holding educational meetings
instructing farmers in effective meth
DDS of controlling and eradicating
weeds and by furnishing chemicals
at cost, observance of the weed law
has been popularized.
Immediate reason for the interest
in weed control is found in the in
creasing concern of thinking citizens
over the rapidly spreading of weeds,
and the volunteer non-salaried work.
ers system originated by county
agent Nate H. Bovee.
Volunteer workers, popularity known
as minute men," serve as education
al agents for the county weed COM
mittee, assisting neighbors in the
Identification of weeds, and bringing
about modern methods of control.
Counties which have adopted the
Redwood county plan this summer
are Rock, Mobiles, Jackson, Murray,
Cottonwood, Pipestone, Brown, Mar
tin, Watonwan, Lyon, Blue Earth,
Lac Qui Parle and Olmsted.
Redwood county is continuing its
campaign, and also inaugurating new
features. To check weeds from
spreading along highways into adj
joining fields roadsides were seeded
into a mixture of alfalfa, sweet and
red clover, and timothy.
A perusal of the weekly exchange
papers show that great interest is
being shown in the war on weeds pro-
gram throughout the second congress
sional district area. Certain counties
of South and North Dakota also have
mapped out plans based on the Red
i wood county method.
The Redwood county plan has
evoked interest of agriculture spe-
cialists and extension workers thru
out the Northwest. Farm publication
editors have written extensive stor-
les, The Successful Farmer, a Des
Moines, Iowa, paper devoted many
pages to the subject as did the Farm.
er, Farm Stock and Home.
With leaders watching the success
of this plan first originated and
tried in Redwood county in 1880, and
adopted by counties in the south.
western Minnesota area in 1881, it is
likely that it will be put into practice
on state wide scale in future years
as well as throughout the entire
Northwest.

guarantees for constitutional self
government. Lower wages and more
hours of labor must be followed by
stagnation, depression, and moral, in
tellectual and physical deterioration.
1t is upon these grounds that high
productive tariffs, the restriction of
immigration, and the exclusion of
contract and convict labor find their
supreme qualification. 1t is not a
question of party supremacy, but of
self-preservation. Products cheapened
by low wages are bad, but men cheap
ened by degraded competition are
worse.
Labor organizations, therefore, in
stead of being stigmatized and re-
pressed, should be favored, fostered
and strengthened by the legislation,
the courts, the press, and by public
opinion. They are vast conservative

RESULT OF Low
WAGES

The fundamental error of employ
ers is in regarding laborers merely
as producers, from whom the maxi
mum of service is to be exacted at
minimum cost, instead of consum-
ers who furnish the market for more
than three-fourths of our manufac-
tured commodities. Wants are the
measure of wages and their stand
ard is fixed by the cost of living.
Higher wages and fewer hours of
labor for the working men and
women Of the United States mean
greater activity in all branches of
business, increased consumption of
products, better education of children,
happier homes, purer politics, frmer
