that interesting opinions emanate such as a that farmers nursery workers and dairy men are very familiar with- the weed and can control it readily b that highway men such as maintenance crews and griss cutters may pay particular at tention to its destruction c that sufficient seeds and pollen could come from small plots of hind such as unattended gardens vacant lots and rights of way to reseed and pollute the areas around causing itch ing eyes then hay fever asthma and subsequent death may re sult il is felt that your article is fur from being adequate in im parling education on this sub ject because although the haz ard of its prominence is clearlv told and the result ol letting it spread is discussed there is no description given no pictures or identification or methods ol it- destruction for those of us who honestly do not know what rag weed looks like in view of the fact i hat a great percentage of people suiter rum the pollen of this plant may we respectfully request that an all- out effort be made through the newspapers to prevent rag weeds existing another year if ou consider a warning andair penalty lor permitting this plants growth as in the public interest by all means proceed other causes of hay fever arc- constantly being tested and the palient is told what to eat eli minate or avoid and he can do just that but not so with rag weeds dreaded pollen this
