FARMER AMI MECHANIC
|OUACK GRASS IS CONSIDERED
ONE OF OUR WORST WEEDS.

Farmers should study weeds, learn
how they grow, when they mature
seed, whether they come from the
seeds or from roots each year, in
what soil they thrive best, IND many
similar features Of weeds. Then the
question Of eradication would be more
easily solved. A weed is most COM
monty known when it is in flower or
in fruit. Very few persons know
weeds when they first come up. Know
the eed In every stage and condi-
ton. Start with a few of the worst
kind and gradually extend your &C.
quaintance. When you know the
ton.
Quack grass, which is one of the
worst seed pests, flowers during the
latter part of June and ripens it's
seeds in July. 1t is propagated by
underground stems as we'll as seeds,
and these stems are often scattered
on the hoOfs of horses or by ma
chinery used in cultivation. The weed
grows in many kinds Of soil, but
thrives best in rich soil. It's seeds
occur in wheat, rye, barley, clover,
and timothy and bronze gross.
Smothering by blowing and thor
Tough bare culture is the best means
OF graduating Quack grass. The best
results will follow when the treatment
is given in hot, dry weather after the
root systems have been somewhat ex-
hausted by the growth Of plants. The
seed should not be allowed to mature,
however. or If mature, the grass
should be cut and burned.

there will be time enough to make ne

the beets are nj better than the corn

variably every spring. A demon
stration agent correspondent writes:
What causes cheat? A field that
was in wheat last year, with no cheat,
was sOwn again in October, and now
cheat has developed. The wheat was
not grazed and is a better crop than
it was last year. Farmers ask me
all sorts of questions, but to tell them
what cheat comes from is too much
for me-"
If they asked you what bluegrass,
or timothy or crimson clover come
from, you would tell them at once,
From seed" Now. cheat is as dis
tinct and pure d grass as bluegrass
or timothy. 1t is an annual grass
n comes only from seed and in
no other way If there were no cheat
seed in the wheat sown. there were
plenty in the soil down too deep to
terminate till the wheat stubble was
re. Flowed and brought them up in
reach of the warmth Of the sun.
Cheat is Bromus secalinus, and If
there is no cheat seed in the soil
and none are SOwn with the grain.
there will be no cheat, no matter
what happens to the wheat OF oats.
The seed of cheat looks very much
like a small grain of oats. and can
easily be sOwn with oats when the
l farmer thinks he has clean seed. You
{ cannot possibly cheat IL yOI

none already in the soil. perfectly
