Cut the Weeds. Xow is the proper time for all farmers to mow the weeds alonfr their farms. The law provides for a penalty for failure to do between the 15th of July and the lath of August. While the law has set the above date, now is the time to mow them, as the greatest rood can be accomplished at this time. I would advise all the farm ers alone; the highways of our dis trict to pel after them just as soon as possible, while they can be cut much easier. F. Vallery, Road Overseer Dist. No. 1.
