Thorough Bare FaIlow May BE- Re-

Remedy-Three Factors.

When all other methods fail or are
for some reason impractical a thor
ough bare fallow can be resorted to
as very effective remedy against an
nual weeds. To get good results from
bare following three principles must
be kept In mind: list, all weeds that
terminate must be destroyed before
they produce seed: I'd, all seeds In the
soil should be brought where they will
terminate; Sd, seeds will terminate
only under the proper conditions of
heat, air and moisture. To illustrate:
Stubble fields may be disked or plowed
In the fall to cover weed seeds, thus
bringing them in contact with the
moist soil so they will terminate.
Narrowing land in the spring warns
up the soil and let's the air In, thus
promoting termination. The seeds
near enough to the surface will germ
mate while those deeper in the soil
where it is cooler and where the air
does not penetrate freely, will lie dor
ment or decay. Thus only small por-
ton Of the weed seeds in the soil are
brought into conditions favorable for
termination at any one cultivation.
When the weeds started by the spring

May or early in June Gust before
they are large enough to produce

grow are now turned on top, where, II

To get best results from following 1t

following is not to be recommended
except in rare instances. One years

and 1t is also very wasteful to plant
food. 1t is wholly unnecessary to
summer fallow where rotation is prac-
