WAY TO KILL WILD OATS.

Office OF agricultural editor, extern
sion department. agricultural college,
Fargo. n d.; W. c. Palmer, agricultu-
raj editor OF the North Dakota Agri-
cultural college. says: Wild oats are a
bad weed in continuous grain growing,
but they cannot do much harm in a
good rotation.
In eradica1ing wild oats the point 10
ne kept in mind is TO get the wild oats
in the ground to grow but 10 kill the
pants before they 60 TO seed. It is easy
enough 10 do this if no crop is raised,
la, a crop may be neeued. Barley and
,nillet can be grown and the wild oats
eradicated at the same time. When
these crops are used either disc OF
plo wthe land shallow in the fall and
harrow in carly spring. The object
being to make good seed bed SO the
wild oats will grow. Plow the land
from June ] to 20, depending on the
location in the state. his will allow
Z maximum OF the wild oats to germ
nate. Then SOW to barley or rnillet at
once. The barley will grow rapidly and
will ripen as soon as the wild oats Cut
the barley little on the green side
and but few wild oats Will scatter. The
.1illet being cut for hay is the more eff
iective II also leaves the land in splen-
did shape for growing good crop Of
grain. Two years OF this kind Of treat
ment will remove most OF the wild oats
Rye can also be used in killing wild
oats The rye can be sown either in
the stubble or the land can be plowed
Tor it. Flowing will give the best re-
suits on heavy land Sow in the latter
part Of August The rye, and especial
y on plowed ground, shakes ont the
wild oats. In this way wild oats can
DC killed and crop igrain raised al
the same time.
When growing a crop Of gram a.,
wheat or oats, that takes longer TO
-ipen than the wild oats, the wild oats
will increase from wear 70 year.

Ajax Scheme That Failed.

that this method Of relying on the pub

successful in raising money for public
ends: but, alas for human nature, in
the course Of time the collectors on
opening the boxes found nothing but
trousers buttons. So the voluntary sys

MANY SAY We
SHOULD WORRY

A. E. Chamberlain, in Dakota Farmer
a great many farmers in the Da
kota Farmer Empire have been feel
ing just little uncertain for the past
month. 1t has rained sometimes, and
lin a good many f1he communities it
has rained often enough and in suf-
lcient quantities that good deal Of
the crop is assured But there are
other great areas wh.re there has been
all OF the time since planting that feel
ing OF uncertainty as to whether or
not the small grain was going to make
la crop.
The man who has been depending
entirely upon his small grain crop to
pay his bills this fall has been wor-
tons: But his neighbor farmer who
has had third or half of his land
into corn and potatoes and has had
some good live stock eating grass has
not had his share of worry. There
never has been a day during all Of
this trying period when the corn that
was properly cultivated was not max
ing a good growth, and the potatoes
and other crops that have been prop
erly cultivated have not hesitated a
moment in much Of our territory for
want of moisture. The man who had
thes ecrops growing with good stand
in the field, and planted in a good seed
bed. and kept well cultivated. has been
rather pleased with the intensely hot
weather we have had And the cultiva-
ton has conserved the moisture to the
extent that he has not been afraid Of
his corn crop and his potato crop dry
ing out
The live stock in most sections of
The Dakota Farmer Empire had an
abundance OF luscious grass to eat
There has been no worry whatever
by the man who was depending apon
Ia number Of different things for his
income Even ii there is not much
wheat to sell. there will be some cat
tie and some hogs, colt Or two, may
be few lambs and some wool, and
always some eggs and poultry. If
there are some good COWS there is some
cream to sell every two or three DAYS
The little bills are no, pil;ng up for
him Maybe he won't make quite as
much money as the small grain grower
would this year if he had big crop
and got a good price. But he always
makes as much unless the other fellow
gets the great big crop and the big
price at the same time-and that sci
dom happens. tx
We wonder why so many farmers
who might do otherwise keep inviting
worry from year to year. They Ger
tainly can get away from it ~ changing
their methods.
