The automobile chug-chugged its way into the Canadian scene as the tumultuous twentieth century began. Nobody took this “foolish contraption very sericusly. It was a passing fadâ€" a relatively harmless toy for this young bloods of the day to pley with â€"and if an occasional chicken lost its life, the damage could be righted by a few contrite words and perhaps a dollar. The fad, however, did mt fade. In- stead. the automobile became an all- importan: fafctor in modem ~ivili- zation.

Out of Ottawa on the Canadian Press wire came a despatch on Thursday. It told of the “dream of anglers now a reality. It related hiw fishermen near Plantagenet were using a newiangled yet simple crea- tion. This bait it said was an ordin- ar) o.-e-ounoe glass bottle with a glass stopper. Filled with water there was placed herin a nice worm. Then is was lowered on the line. “Un der the surface,” thed espatch said, “the worm is magnified and it wrig- gles in a most alluring fashion.

The fish is then :asin pulled out. the bait removed and used again.” “After the war, his whole attitude and action for an enlarged Canadian autonomy.

The only thing that spoils it all, according to Scions of the Province is that it’s a hoax. At least that’s how the Department of Game and Fisheries is regarding the story. A Good Story.

New weed l seeds are introuced on farms with 1m| perfectly cleaned cereal, clover, and; other commercial seeds with commer‘ cial feeding stuffs which often con- tain vital weed seeds. These seeds are spread from district to district through the various transportation fa cilities, are disseminated within a 100 ality in stable manure from twons and cities, an are distributed from farm to farm through threshing ma- chines, and from field to field by farm implements. The wind carries weed seds long distances; {streams disperse them along and setd-feeding birds help to swell the evil broadcast It is important to consider not only :he large number of weeds sown With iinprcperly cleaned graih but also those alrealy in farm soils. Some of the worst weeds in Canada are so prolific in the production of seeds that relatively clean fields may be- come badly contaminated in two or dl‘s‘, if hese seeds are allowed t; go to seed. For example, a single plant of wild mustard, stinkweed, foxtail, pigweed or campion produces from 10,000 to 20,000 seeds, worm- seed mustard abut 25,000 shepherd’s purse about 50,000 and tumbling muâ€" stard about 1,500,000. With such pro- luctiveness soils become quickly in- fested with weed seeds although the presence of the seeds is LJt fully real zed at the moment owing to their in- :onspicuousness. Only a careful ex- aminaion will reveal their kinds and numbers and with this object in View the Sed Branch of the Dominion De- )artment of Agriculture gathered aformation en the prevalence of weed :eeds in for lands.
