Cutting It dqwn doesn’t do any good, fo r burdock develops a root system pos­ sessing wonderful vital tenacity, and promptly '‘comes up” again. Like th e , well-known hero o f an­ tiquity whose only vulnerable spot was on his heel, the ehamed life which the burdock seems to bear realty Is only a semblance. The burdock hns Its vulner­ able spot, but few know where It is. Art eastern farmer, living in n rural district where tbe worthless burdock had brazenly lived Its parasitic. life'for' years, happened on to the bur­ dock's weakness—and burdock ceased straightway to be a bad pest on that -farm..-."' - . ' This farmer cut, using a bush scythe, the burdocks fnfesting a fence comer. They were nourishing, arrogant bur­ docks—the kind that grew as tall ns a man nearly,and for a brief period In. the summer, when the green burrs make elegant balls and cushions, are a delight to the children, , This farmer cut them all down with a scythe, A few hours later—if was In hot, dry weather—It occurred to him to try to pull up the roots. Thus he stumbled fin the peculiar weakness of the burdock. •. •It has a long tap root which shrinks when the plant Is first cut. If the plants have been cut oft about four Inches above the ground., leaving a Wit which can be readily grasped, and If the pulling Is attended to while the .tap "root is still in the shrunken. state, It Is possible to pull the tap ropt up al­ most to Is bottommost end, RACIAL VIGOR WILL RETURN English Writer o f Opinion That Matter f^ay Safely Be Left to Mother ‘ Nature. */ v* . , , . ’ V Many writers have laid stress’ upon the*fact that Europe, la losing.'the. flower of its youth upou the battle- Held, has left only the least fit and mpst unhealthy to become the progeni­ tors o f future races. And they cite fhe effect io f the Napoleonic Wars on the .physique anti Stamina o f the. French. „ , Ift answer to these pessimists the scientific editor o f the Illustrated Lon­ don News writes! “Against tills It may be urged that the recuperative power o f nature soon reasserts itse lf and no one who bos watched year by, year up to 1914 ’ (ns .did the present writer) the yearly re­ views- on duly 14 Could doubt that, at' the outbreak o f the-present War, the Frenchman had more than recovered the tall stature and the high muscular and nervous energy o f hid forefathers. While, therefore, we must 'expect a certain falling off In the physique of the children bom between, say, 1914 and thirty S’ears hence,'we may be fairly confident that, given the maintenance of the present standard of living and the absence of any great epidemic, at the end o f that time the English race will return to Its prewar standard of physical fitness.” [OHIOGLEANINGS S E E D . .

Prayers from the youthful lips o f faith have ever appealed to mankind. There are few so hardened as not to be moved by such prayers, or remember with awe thelr- own lisping o f “Now I lay me down to sleep.” *Children also, In their Innocence, sometimes say prayers which are not without their humorous side, and these, too, have been handed down to" posterity.

Electrification of Seeds, There appears to be much interest In the electrification o f seeds and the ap­ plication of electricity to growing plants, A tdeent account of work along these lines tells of a new method of aiding plant growth.
