There were fewer epidemlcs and not

getting rid of bindweed, or wild MORN
lng-glory.
Where It is feasible to confine sheep,
goats or hogs to very restricted areas
for n or more seasons, they will in
most cases completely kill perennial
weeds. Where It Is not practicable
to Craze sufficiently close to entirely
destroy perennials, the grazing still
greatly weakens the root system Of
these plants, making 1t an easy task
to complete the destruction by cult
walton.
Smother crops-Thlck stands and
vigorous growths Of smother crops
may be depended on to keep down the
top growth Of perennials. The most
commonly used smother crops are al
falfa, buckwheat, soy beans, millet,
sorghum and bur clover. Some weeds
are more susceptible to this treatment
than others. Bermuda grass may be
~eradlcated by a continuous succession
Of smother crops. Alfalfa, where It
succeeds well, is the most effective
smother crop, largely because 1t COM
bines frequent clipping with the
smOthering effect. 1t may be relied
upon to reduce greatly or ever to Grad
icate entirely most perennials except
some of the grassy weeds. In the case
Of smother crops, as with pasturing,
the principal value Is to weaken the
root systems of perennials, which fa-
cilitates the work of cultivation which
is to follow.
Moving or euttIng.-Cutting off re-
peatedly the tops of perennial weeds

sm%otherlng With Building Paper and
