DAL FORD • MERCURY DEALER SEAFORTH MANLEY Quite a number from here attended the euchre and dance in Dublin last Friday night and report a good time. The fine weather has made it poss- ible to do some more ploughing. Mr. Charlie Regele in his genial way was a visitor with Mr. C, Eckert in Seaforth and the topic was our young days and how the times have changed, but apparently not for the better, even with the modern im- provements. It seems that Red Russia thinks that might is right. She ought to be ashamed to attack the Fins, who were minding their own business. Finland is being erueifted in the same way as Poland, Let us pray that justice will prevail in the long run and that slav- ery and tyranny will be crushed for the sake of humanity and civilization.

WHY WEEDS ARE HARD TO KILL (Science Service News) Each weed has a life history of its own, and the reason why one is hard to kill may not be at all the chief reason why another persists. Some of the principal reasons, however, are given by Herbert Groh, Division of Botany, Science Service, as follows: 1. They are naturally adapted tor life in gardens, fields and the sur- roundings of man. They might he easy to kill, or would die out of them- selves, if they happened to start growth in the dense shade of a wood- land. For the same reason the plants of woodlands would be easy to kill, o.• hard to hoe]) alive, in the unnatural environment for therm of our fields and gardens. Moet of enc i' .ds have conte from oldr r land. ‘viier' they have held their own against ratan for ages in just such an environment. Often the crops they grow with arc less hardy and aggressive than they are, and can only survive and thrive as they are cared for by the farmer, while the weeds only need to be left alone to win out In the race for light. space, water and plant food.
