Kindly name 1t for me.-Rolla Gilbert.
Blaine County.
The weed you-have in your alfalfa
field is what is known as dodder: il
Is the worst pest there is in alfalfa.
In many cases where fields get thor
oughly infested with this weed it is
necessary to plow up the fields and
cultivate them to other crops in order
to kill out the dodder: where the
patches are small It may be killed out
by cutting the alfalfa at the usual time
and then covering the parts of ground
infested with the dodder with manure
so that the ground will be covered
about six inches deep. The alfalfa will
force its way through this manure aft.
er a time; the dodder will not.
II your alfalfa field is generally in.
tested with dodder, do not believe
you can do anything. This pestiferous
weed comes in with the alfalfa seed.
| wish to say that you are rendering
yourself liable If you sell seed from
your alfalfa field without clearing It of
the dodder seed; ana If you know who
sold you the alfalfa seed with the dod-
der seed in it you have good grounds
for a damage suit Most all Of our
states have laws against the sale OF
dodder infested seed OF any kind. It
Is particularly bad in alfalfa, although
It sometimes infests other clover fields
as we'll.

have to be applied by an experienced

II is spreading in this state now on
account of the two dry years we have
had. If there comes a couple of wet
years you will find it much easier to
subdue. Cattle will eat It when II is
real young, but it soon gets too hard
