Fered Rtormber of «ash wesk by the Udeli Printing Ocltipany, C " he ai oi iA in n Heavy rains during the early spring and summer, has resulted in an unusually large growth of weeds on vacant property in all parts of the city. At the present time, these weeds are beginning to pollinate. The most important of these is the ragweed. Spreading of polien from the ragweed ushers in the hay fever season during the early weeks of Au:nlt. ud emuses untold suffering to hundreds of victims. SAatered as Second Clase Matter March 1, 1911 at the Post Ofive t Wighlnad Park, Hitnsts One who is familiar with the hay fever symptoms which include sneez ing, coughing, difficulty in breathing, discharge from the eyes and nasa mucous membrane, realize the distress caused its victims. With this in view we are appealing to every owner of vacant property in the City of Highland Park to cut, or have cut, weeds of this type which are growing on their property. Every individual in this city can help eliminate this noxious weed, by pulling every spear of ragweed which they find up by its roots, and destroying it. We do not mean that you should appear pixilated, running about the streets tearing up every weed you see, but when you do come in contact with ragweed on or near your property, make way with it. In this manner you may help to elimâ€" inate a lot of suffering for some poor victim of hay fever.
