ONTARIO (IHESLEY LADIES GYPED IN BUYING SEEDS l Two ladies residing on Chcslcy's another become somewhat wrathy, and rightly .whencvcr seeds, nursery salesmen and choice imported flowers mentioned. Mrs. Wâ€"bought some supposedly ch01ce flowers from a Toronto firm but later it turned out to be only the common variety of wild butter- cup. Then another lot of seed was purchased as being Russian staticc, which bears long, spikey flowers. However when the blooms appeared they didn’t look much like statice and later she was told they were French marigolds. Not satisfied, the lover of flowers called in several horticulturists and every one declar- ed her choice plants were nothing more than ragweed. Up the street Mrs. Câ€"purchased 3proximity to one 50, II 1‘0 who was taking orders for another nursery. Well the shrubs have grown up now to a point where they can be recognized and the tidâ€"lbit in this collection is an elderberry bush. The ragweed has now been torn out and consigned to a bonfire and the elder- berry bush is expected to join the ragweed shortly. Nursery salesmen canvassing Ches» ley in future are going to find it awfully difficult to get anywhere with a sales talk in these two homes, and perhaps others may profit by their disappointing experience and obtain their seed and stock in future from old and relialble companies.â€" Chesley Enterprise.

This weed is a real some rare shrubs fr0m a young girl , 'before seed matures. menace to Ontario Agriculture and will have~ to be eliminated if farm- ers are to grow better and heavier crops in the anxious war days to come . Dodder is a prohibited: .n0xious: weed under the Weed ‘Control Actm It is an offence for anyone to sell clover, alfalfa, or grass seed con« taining even one seed of Dodder and as it is impossible to remove Dodder‘ seed from clover and alfalfa, farmJ ers must be sure their seed is albso- lutely pure. Clover Doddcr is an annual para-, sitic weed with slender, yellowish stems and a few minute scales in» stead of leaves. Plants twine around Red Clover and Alfalfa plants andiL become attached to the stems byI means of suckers. The root soon dies and the stems continue to grow and thrive on the juices of the host' plant. Duodder grows from seed each- year. Yellow, thread-like stems ap- pear during the growth. of the sec-~ 0nd» crop of clover and alfalfa. They spread from plant to plant until a tangled max of yellow threads eov-l ers a large area. Dense clusters of small, white flowers are produced on these yellow stems followed later ‘by‘ rounded, brown seed pods. Seeds are about the same size as clover and alfalfa seed, greyish brown or yel- lowish brown in color. They vary in shape and have a dull and rough4 ened appearance. Thousands of seeds may be produced on an aver-‘ age plant, these may live in the soil for several years. If this weed has made its appear- ance on your farm do not attempt to produce clover and alfalfa seed until it has been eradicated, says Mr. MacLeod. 5 Cut infested fields early for hay.‘ This is important and must be done If left too late,. rake up the entire crop and, burn. Insist on a clean threshing ma- chine. As soon as the crop has been re- moved plough and cultivate thor- oughly or burn over the entire area. One cannot dependI on the scythe or mower as the least little bit of Dod- dler that remains attached to the stubble will grow and may live over the winter and start another infesta- tion the following year. Clean up around margins of in- fested fields and fence lines in order to eliminate any possibility of plants maturing seed. Practise thorough cultivatiOn and a short rotation of crops. The seriousne5s of the Dod‘der situation in Ontario cannot be over- estimated. Do not hesitate to ask advice from your Agricultural Re- presentative, or the Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch, Ont.

A. Carroll Official announcement. was made today that the International Plowâ€" ing Match scheduled at Brockvillc from October 10th to 13th would be held as originally planned. J. A. Carroll. Manager of the On- tario Plowmen's Association whose auspiccs the match held each year, stated that the holding of the event would not be affected by Canada’s entry into the Euro- pean war. He said the decision to go ahead with the match had been reached after the government’s request that citizens should? “carry on" as in nor- mal times, coupled with the fact that one of Canada’s greatest con- tributions will be the serving of sup- plies and food to the Allies. “This can only be done," said Mr. Carroll, “when agriculture has be- come geared to wartime efficiency. The International Plowing Match is held primarily to display and die- monstrate the most modern and ef- ficient farm methods and- machinery. There are no frills or side-sho‘ws at the International. It is devoted to educational demonstrations, competi- tions and displays. It’s. an ‘all-busi- ness’ event and nothing could be more devoted to the development and promotion of wartime agricul- tural efficiency and production." Mr. Carroll said the executives of the Plowing Match had conferred is with Dominion and. Provincial agri-l cultural heads before reaching their‘ decisirn. It was believed that plans for wartime farm production were being prepared at both Ottawa and Queen’s Park and officials of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association were prepared to offer every facility to Government agricultural depart- ments in presenting such plans to a representative cross-section of farm people from Ontario and other parts of Canada. During the Great War, the Pl0w- ing Match was considered of too great importance to be discontinued and only the influenza epidemic of 1918 caused the cancellation of the match in that year. as a quarter of a century ago, the Plowmen’s a patriotic obligation that the plow- ing match be held. Several branches of the Dominion government will have exhibits and give demonstrations and will thus have an opportunity of showing what is required from farmers under wartime emergency conditions. It is anticipated many department and branch heads will be on hand with important speeches and! official statements. Highlight of this year’s competi- tion program will be the trans-At- lantic" class, whose value will bring the total prize list to more than $6000. Concentration has been the keynote in designing the layout of the match and demonstrations this year. ~Clover Dodder Weed ICarry on as Usual ' Menace Agriculture underI At this time,, THURS l “Thv pumil Iona ll which Ioblxco an be smelled” TOWNSHIP OF M ARKHAM TREASI'RER‘S SALE OF LANDS IN ARREARS OF TAXES By virtue of a warrant issued by the Reeve of the Township of Mark- ham dated the 17th day of August 1939 and to me directed, command- ing me to proceed with the c011ec- tion of arrears of taxes, together with the fees and expenses, I hereby give notice that the list of lands liable to be sold has been prepared, and is being published in the On- tario Gazette under the date of ‘Septemlber 2nd, 1939, and that, unâ€" lless the said arrears of taxes and lcosts are sooner paid, I shall, on the 7th day of December 1939 proceed lto sell the said lands to discharge 'the said arrears of taxes and the charges thereon.
