The barberry tree is one of the worst scourges. As far back as 1905 they realized that the barberry was destroying their wheat crops by the lZl10LlS8.Tl(l> and milions of bushels. In England during the war the people and the Boy Scouts put on a camapign to weed out the barberry hedges, and it is said that now you can drive mile after mile without seeing a single barbcrry tree and the rust on Huniv \vl1s2ni r-rrms has disappeared. this blight Mr. Brown moved that the law re- gardin_: the extinction of this weed all over the county be insisted on.
