(b) Away from Weed Killing by Chemicals A very interested group of farmers and road superintendents, attended the weed Killing demonstration at Man- chester on Monday of this week, The information by the prior to the actual demonstration, was given experts, practical and valuable. Mr. W. J, Stephen, of the Ontario Department of Agriculture, described the chemicals used in week killing, their relative effectiveness and risks of handling. Because of certain dangers and weakness in many chem- icals offered for sale, the Department authorized Mr. Stephen to produce the preparation known as the Stephen Weed Killer. While this preparation has been patented, arrangements can be made by farmers and others with the patentee for its use. The new preparition has consider- ably réduced the cost of operation, relatively from $42 per mile for road- side use, to from $22 to $30, according to density of weeds and brush. Mr. Stephen said that Ontario Coun- ty owned one of the very best weed killing machines in-the Province. The campaign for eradication of weeds from the roadside is. most nec-' essary. It is of little use to bring pressure to bear on individual farmers who may be able to retort--*you clean, up your roads, and I'll clean up my, farm." | Mr. John D. MacLeod, chief weed! inspector, described a number of the noxious weeds, and the best methods for their destruction. At this point it would be well to give the definition of a 'weed, as stated in a recent publication, of which Mr. MANCHESTER Among Mr. and Mrs, John Munro's visitors were a lady from Montreal, Mr. and Mrs. MacPherson and son Billie.

Flewell is not been well of late. fi Mr. and Mrs. Wilmot Walker have rented their farm to his nephew Mr. Croxall. We are glad to know Mr. and Mrs, Walker will stay on the farm for several months yet. = Mr. MacLeod is joint author with J, Eaton Howitt, "There are several definitions of a weed, viz: 'A plant out of place'; 'Any injurious, troublesome, or un- signtly plant that is at the same time useless, or comparatively so,' 'A plant which interferes with the growth of the crop to which the field is tempor- arily devoted," An interesting fact is that "An average mustard plant pumps from the soil about fourtéen ounces, or seven tenths of a pint per day." Some weeds, such as bindweed, can- not be killed by cultivation; and it is with these pests that chemicals must be used, if the ground is to be rid of them, = Mr. Ormiston, of the County Road Board, Mr. Innes, Agricultural Repre- sentative, and Mr. D, J. Kean, County Road Superintendent, all spoke of the good work done by the Stephen Weed Killer. . Mr. Kean said that the removal of brush from the roadside would greatly reduce the cost of removal of snow. He also suggested that by varying the speed of the weed killer machine when in operation the mix- ture could be applied lightly or heav- ily as the case may require. The chemical weed killer system is now in operation in 1256 municipalities, and is available to any farmers who may rarquire it. Interested persons should write to the Ontario Department of Agricul- ture' for Circular No. 58--"Weed Eradication by Chemicals." This cir- cular gives full instruction as to the cquipment required, and system of use. em ------ : Miss Emma Fisher of Toronto, visited on Monday of last week with her-sister, Mrs. A.
