An exceedingly abundant weed in Jefferson and Berkeley 

 counties, where it is known as, "Glenn-weed," it being first 

 noticed in the fields of Colonel Glenn ; who tells me that the 

 weed was quite plentiful, however, in these fields before he 

 purchased them, having been brought there in clover seed 

 bought in Hagerstown, Md., and sown by the previous owner 

 of the farm. The weed is now the worst pest in the large 

 wheat fields of those counties.
