TELEPHONE.-- WEEDS ARE PROLIFIC Weeds are one of the greatest pro- blems in successful farming, and par- ticularly in producing a more abundant supply of clean forage grain, and other seed. To get the best returns from the land and produce a high class of clean seed, .farmers have to wage a ceaseless war keeping weeds in check and preventing the spread of new kinds. One of the principal reasons why weeds are not brought under bet- ter control is beacuse such large num- bers of,weed seeds are put into the soil through the lack of care in ordinary farm operations. Investigations have shown that while many farmers are extremely careful in the selection and cleaning of the seed' they use, others do not give this important step in farming the attention it rightly deserves. Clean seed is of vital importance, because some weeds are so prolific in seed pro- I duction that relatively clean fields may become :badly contaminated in two or FOR SALE-1 Polled Angus Heifer, freshened 4 weeks, T.
