BOIL WEEVIL AND JOHNSON GRASS
MENACES DISCUSSED BY TWO FARMERS

Johnson grass has been the bane Of
farmers existence in all sections OF the
south. and southwest for years, and
many devices have been rssorted 10
to rid the fields Of this pest.
The following tells how one Carter
county farmer got rid OF the grass on
ten acre tract on his farm, that
threatened TO spread, and cover the
entire place
There is prevailing idea among
some land owners, that Johnson grass
on farm is one Of its greatest ours

confined to those whose labors have
been devoted to row cropping and
have never made any determined eff
fort to get rid of it, and either
through ignorance Of method Of
determination or sothfulness usually
the latter, the grass gets the better
of them. al.
johnson grass, when properly
handled Is one of the most useful, as
well as one of the best money making
crops that can be grown on farm.
In the first place, it is valuable as
pasturage, five acres will keep 10 to
20 head of cattle, and as a hay crop
1t Is immense. 1t can be cut as many
as three times during u favorable sea-
son, and If cut at the proper time be-
fore it seeds, and becomes too stemmy
and coarse, it is as fine as timothy.
nearly as good as alfalfa, and much
better than the ordinary prairie hay.
