Many suffragettes believe that the

The Wild Mustard Pest-=IrOn Sui
phate Spray a Means of Control

orono, Me-. June 16.-(special)-For
number of years the Maine Agricultural
Experiment Station has been expert
menting with the control of wild mus
tard. The summary of these experiments
is published in Bulletin pa of the Sta
ton. This bulletin will be sent on re-
Maine. The price to non-residents is 10
&C nts a copy Because OF the Importance
of this pest and the great annual losses
| incurred 1t is deemed wise to again call
attention to the weed and its control In
this series of letters.
There are three quite closely related
parts of the mustard family that are
troublesome weeds, particularly in sown
crops, all over the eastern part of the
/ United States and in Europe, from where
they were brought in as weeds. Char
] lock or wild mustard Ia very abundant
| in Maine. The wild radish, jointed or
white charlock, is also very abundant
and a persistent weed. The third, wild
turnip, is not so bad a weed as the other
two as it rarely lasts in the land more
/ than one or two years. These all belong
to the mustard family and more or less
resemble each other in their appearance.
Wild turnip has a smooth leaf and stem,
while both the wild radish and the wild
mustard are roughened with strong
hairs. 1t Is not easy to distinguish be-
tween wild radish and wild mustard
/ 10
radish leaves, however, are much more
deeply cut, the divisions between the
lobes of the leaves reaching nearly to
the midrib. With a small magnifyinS
glass the stem hairs make it easier also
to distinguish. Those of the wild mus
tard generally protrude at right angles
from the stem while those of the Wild
radish slant downward. Wild mustard
has a straight, jointless seed pod which
splits open when dry and seatters It's
seed at the slightest touch. On wild
radish the seed pod is jointed and tends
to break up in segments when dry.
A somewhat superficial examination OF
fields indicates that perhaps 70 per cent
of the oat and barley acreage in Maine
is infested with wild mustard" and that
30 per cent. Is 50 pauiS iite9'SN ~
hand pulling cannot be resorted to with
profit.
It has been found absolutely impossible
to separate wild radish or mustard seq
ments or seed from oats or barley by
even the most improved types of flaming
mills, or by floating in water As a re-
suit If these weeds are permitted TO ma
ture and are harvested with the gran
crop. it means again seeding the fields
with these weeds. or else purchasing
seed grain from outside distributors

The cost of good seed oats free from
weed seeds is we'll known. Many farmers
to be relieved of this burden OF buying
seed oats, purchase ordinary feed oats
which as a rule are loaded with mustard
seed Thus the farmer who buys cheap
seed oats encounters weed seeds in both
harvesting his crop and in seeding his
land.
Extensive studies have been made OF
this plant and methods of control In
France and in Germany, particularly un-
der the auspices of the German Agricul-
tural Society by Gustav Schultz. Using
this work of Schultz as a basis the
Maine Agricultural Experiment Station
has carried on experiments in an en-
deavor to kill wild mustard in sown
grain crops by spraying with iron sui
plate and copper sulphate.
1t is to be hoped that the growers OF
small grains that are troubled with
"charlock' whether II be wild mus
tard, wild radsh or wild turnip) will
keep this matter in mind and provide
supply of iron sulphate. The materials
must be provided amply in advance; a
day or two days delay may make all the
difference in the world with the results
of the application. The materials are
applied with an ordinary spray pump.

The material must fall upon the plants
in the form of a fine mist and the spray

dried from the plants, and best on
bright day when there is no wind. APP

At this stage the plant is so small that
it can be covered by an ordinary drink

Dissolve 100 pounds iron sulphate In 10
