Excerpt from A Talk on Weeds: An Address Delivered Before the County Road School, Clinton County, Iowa, 1910, With an Appendix Describing a Few Weeds
Seeds carried by the Wind: w - golden rod, b - blue lettuce. (c. M. King.) disseminated by the wind. The plant grows in circular form and when mature is severed from the root close to the ground. In this form it rolls over and over scattering the seed. The Rus sian thistle is like it, but each seed is attached by a slender thread like body which becomes severed from the plant, drops the seed as it rolls over the ground.
