age of hay harvested over last year and
the average production per acre was
1.76 tone.
Reports from a farmer in Tiden
township, ‘Berks county, show that
from a seven acre fleld 202 bushels of
rye was threshed, an average of almost
20 bushels to an acre,
Butler conoty wheat is reported to
have declined since July first on ac-
count of fungus in the stalk. The
heads turned black sod did vot fill
well. Home felds were badly iofected,
i. There has bien a marked decrease in
the number of turkeys raised this year

There are many different kinds of
golden rods. Considered from the
weed view point they may be dividea,
according to the botany department ol
The Pennsylvania State College, into
two classes. First, there is the type
which propagates by seeds only, repre

rod. This type seems 10 prefer dry

trol method. The lsod should be
thoroughly cultivated and liberally fer-
tilized, thereby enabling more desii-
able plants, which prefer richer soll, to
grow in euch sbundance as Lo drive out
the undesirable goldenrod,
The second class includes those gold-
enrods which reproduce themselves
not only by seed, but aiso by nudei-
ground rool stocks, such sé the Canada
goldenrod., ‘these plants are far more
difficult to combat. They should be
attacked before the first bloom, aud
