There is a dangerous weed or parasite
that has made its appearance in many
of the alfalfa fields hereabouts, known
as the %"lovevine." This vine twines it
self around the alfalfa and chokes or
~e@loves'' it to death. On the ranch OF
Alvaro Evans in the western part of
Reno it has taken possession of . field,
and Mr.. Evans is positive that it means
death to his alfalfa. In regard to this
Prot. Hillman says. "As the dodder is
apt to spread rapidly when once estab-
lished In a field, some effective remedy
alone can prevent this, and at the same
time eradicate the pest. Probably the
most effective remedy, and one easily
suggested, is that of burning the infest-
ed areas. Ii this is done in late Autumn
the best results will doubtless follow, as
at this time the seeds of the dodder have
but recently reached maturity and are
either still in the seed capsules or sim
ply resting OH the surface OF the ground.
In either case a quick, hot fire, burning
| close to the ground, will suffice and if
such, will probably do no injury to flu
ture crops OF alfalfa from the same roots.
The standing alfalfa moved and allowed
to dry for a day or two probably would
furnish sufficient heat and this too, at
the right place,
