Wh! e tere are nian weeds which are proving troublesome on farms, there are wo which are pre-eminently noxious ;a:t:cularly In Wisconsin and tie north central states, vir.. Quacf gras and anada thistles. The' weeds are extremely diScult to eradi e because of their p-eculiar aaur ar.d habits. Wl i mustard has become a serious pest ;a tte grain fields of many stateE. a.L'1 in some sections is getting bejoad tbe control of farmers using ordinary methods of eradication. Land values have deteriorated where the fields have become thickly seeded to mustard Considerable effort has been expended by farmers in pulling the n.ustard plants when la full bloom at a time when the weed could be easily recognised la the grain fields, but when f.elds became badly iafestod this was a laborious" task, and often was done at the expense of one-half or natie of the crop. Other weeds which are especially obnoxious are the Sow thistle. Star thistle Ktg.ish plantain. Ox-eye daisy. Toad fax Dodder and Velvet leaf, and la many sections other weeds are serious C-zc'-c Grass Serious Fee.

Canada thistles seldom bear seed in Se!ds that are cultivated annually, but in those fields that are seeded down to clover or grasses. Methods of Weed Eradication. Many methods have been devised and advocated for the eradication of I Quack grass and Canada thistles. The ' success of any method depends very ' largely upon soil and weather conditions and a method which has proven entirely successful under ono st nt 1 conditions has frequently failed when used under somewhat different conditions. Quack grass is more persistent and more diöcult to eradicate than tte Canada thistle, hence anv method which will eradicate Quack ' grass will surely destroy Canada this-' ties ! This method can be used successfulf IT eXCeDt OS Wet or trnmolT Mrnni soils. Xo crop can be grown during ' the year in which this treatment is being given. It consists of plowing! 'wu, iuur nmes in a ary season, i and oftener If the season is wet. In i fact, plowing may profitably be begun as soon as a crop is removed the i preceding year. J In the intervals between plowings the ground should be cultivated often enough to prevent all leaf growth. . The spring tooth harrow makes an oxcellent tool for this purpose, but any exposure of the roots to the not i winds and glaring sunshine of summer rapidly kills them. This fallowing method is more certain to reult In complete eradi. at ion than any other which has been tried, it gets rid of the weeds with one years work The thorough cultivation of the soil leaves It in splendid ondition. so that a much larger crop can be obtained the following year than would have been possible had the weeds remained, and the ßeld will continue to bear good crops after the wfd are eliminated Wh-ro the Qua-k grass or thistles are to b removed w:le a crop i. being raided, plowing rhouM begin in be summer or autumn as soon as e foT.:r fror Is r moved, the ear!:r 'he better Tl is should be follow by careful cultivation until tho grouL-1 freezes The next spring ;.:jw-.r,a should be done as soon as soil cor..1it;ons permit and be continued at Intervals of four week until the first of July Betw?en the plowings thorough cultivation should be practised. On the date mentioned the seed bod should br carefully prepared and the land sown to millet or buckwheat at the rate of three pecks per acre In either case. The previous treatment will have so weakened the weeds that the raillet or buckwheat gets well established before the weed3 recover sufficiently to begin growth. Doth of these crops grow rapidly and provide a (fronse shade underneath which the wecus cannot survive. Spraying to Kill Wild Muitard. The eradication of farm weeds by inrs t! n t- a-lth tvuwt kllllnr. mlnHnn. has been the subject of special inves-1 ( tigations by the Wisconsin export- j meat station for several years. Et ', rorlmonts with the Iron sulphate solution were begun In 19M and success ful results were secured In the e-adl-' cation of wild mustard and in the par-1 tlal control of other weed pests. 1 Tl e Iron sulphate solution is pre- j , pared by mixing 100 pounds of gram- J iated Iron sulphate with &o gallons of ' water and stirring thoroughly. This ! coin t ion h sufficient to treat one a : I of land infested with wild mustard. A specially adapted sprayer Is neeea : sary to apply the solution. Such ma- ' chines are now to be found upon the j market at moderate prices'. , Fifteen to 25 acres can be sprayed ; dally and a single application of the j solution will kill all of the wild musI tard If applied at the right time. The ; spray Is most effective If applied wbm the younger plants are In the kud and the older plants In the third leaf. Weather conditions should be favorable, as rains wash off the solution, making It Ineffective,

il St. Paul's Cross Links Present With the Past. Shaft Recently Unveiled It Successor of Others Whose Earliest History Is Lost in the Mlit of Obscurity. Ixjodoa An Interesting link connecting the London of today with the I London of remote ages was made by j ib recent unreitlng of the new ' Paul' rr os In Si Paul's churchrard. "1 1 i. a n . k. l. A k. n.l A great metropolis was made the first , settlement In far-of days and thre j it Is believed once stood a heathen j temple, which in due time gave way to the nrst of the Christian edltieoi which preceded the präsent cathedral. The cross recently unveiled is the successor of other crosses, the history of the earliest of which is lost in the mists of obscurity. At the time j of the Reformation there were prob- ; ably fewer than 5.0v0 crosses in Eng laad, varying In slse and shape avnd varyiag. too, in their uses. They were to be found on the roadsides, at cross - J - - r sj - preaching crosses. j Some beautiful specimens of preach-; ing crosses still remain, but the most' celebrated one in Europe and one which played a most important psirt . in the history of England, is old St Paul's. j It was a tall wooden structure with a leaded roof, and stood upon stone j bases. Octagon In shape, It was large enough to hold the preacher and three attendants. A low wall surrounded It. Kings and queens often visited Paul's cross. The marriage contract between James IV. of Scotland and Margaret, daughter of Henry VII. of Englind. was proclaimed ther. and In 1S Q-jeea Elizabeth attended in ptate at a thlaksgiving service (or the d feat of the Spanish armada, klight years later, while the lord mayor was at service there, he received an ordor from the quen to raise 1.100 men to aid the French in the defense of Calais. Before eight o'c'ock that evening the men had been rtcrulted and were marching on the road to Dover. Among those who did penance at the crocs was Jane Shore, the favorite of Edward IV.. while a stM more remarkable case was that of Lady Markham, wife of Sir G riffln Markham. who In 1617 Ftood at the cross in a white sheet and was fined 55.000 for marrying one of her servants while her husband was alive This was the Epot chosen, too. when anything had to be denounced, and consequently the bull of Pope Paul II. was read from, threatening all shoemakers who put peaks of more than two Inches long on the shoes they made, and censuring, as well, all, whether shoemakers or not. wb ueat o a fair on a Sunday These are but a few of the things which took place at what wns, in old time, the center of the public life, not only of the city, but also of the union, for It was at once the exchange, the club, and the meeting place of Lon don. Here heralds proclaimed the news of victories by tea and land: here, wo are told, "men threw up their bonnets when they heard of Crecy and Aglncourt;" hero It was that a sovereign brought his now-mado wife to show her to his faithful subjects ; and last, hut not least. It was hero that the wives and daughters of the citizens gathered for- their little gossips and flirtations. It was doomed to dstructlon. The last sermon was preached there in May 30. 1630. before King Charles I . and In 1643 the cross was demolished by order of the long parliament. Tho new cross is built In accordance with a bequest of tho late H. C. Richards, who left $25,000 for the purpose. It consists of a Doric column on the top of which Is a bronze figure of St. Pcul, nine feet high.
