Excerpt from Your Weeds and Your Neighbor's, Vol. 2: Distribution of Our Weeds; Bad Points of Weeds; Weeds as Fodder for Stock; Chemical Weed Exterminators
This point I have determined from the preceding pages, which give substantially the observations of my reporters throughout the 'state; they are necessarily incomplete. In the following tables of bad points, this one is of course arbitrarily averaged from that source for the whole State. Any one of the weeds may be high in prevalence in one locality and very low in another. Such a weed as the Rag 'weed88 can be easily understood to merit (10) the highest grade, as it is found every where in the State and plentiful wherever it grows. Others are not so readily rated.
