Tile next meeting will be held f June 17, i o WEED MEETINGS : ARE HELD HERE Three Weed Demonstra* 1 tions Given In County Monday O. C. Lee. extension specialist of ’ Purdue University, and County ! Agent Afchbold held three weed demonstrations Monday. The first meeting was held on I the Dan Rumple farm aud spreading dry chlorate m Canada thistles was demonstrated. The second meeting was held on the Al- ■ bert Ryf farm in Monroe township I when dry chlorate was applied to the European bind weed. The third meeting was held on the old Hocker farm just south of Monroe where chlorate had been applied tn varying amounts last year. The results of these applications show that chlorate applied at tl|e rate ' of 300 pounds per acre or more is 100 per cent effective in killing bind weed. These meetings were well at- j tended, and it was considered significant by the leaders that fully one half of the people either brought bind-weed in for identification or stated that they knew

they had this weed pest on their farms This weed has become widespread in the last few years and it Is more difllciflt to eradicate than the Canada thistle. 4-H CLUBS TO SPONSOR SHOW 4-H Club Os County Plan Activities During Centennial That the young people of Decatur and Adams County are interested in the Centennial celebration i* evidenced by the preparation that the 4-H clubs of the county, under the direction of Mrs. Helen E.
