A knowledge Of Weed Characteristics
Provides Means of Control.

this theory is correct the weed-contrul
problem overshadows all others with
which the farmer is confronted. Mod
ern agricultural science has discovered
much concerning the control and Grad,
icati0n of these insidious land thieves.
The wild onion, for example, vas con-
sidered a hopeless problem from Mas
sachusetts to Georgia, and as far west
as Missouri and Arkansas until a weed
specialist in the Department of Agri-
culture discovered that the plant pro-
duced two kinds of bulbs. One type
was soft-coated, and formed the ley
plants during late summer and fall;
harmed by winter, and ready to form
the new plants in the spring. With
this to guide them the specialists
proved that the wild onion can be con-
trolled by blowing deeply in the late
fall to destroy the plants originating
from the s%oft-coated bulbs, and by
planting an intertilled crop, such as
corn, the following spring to kill the
plants that come up from the hard
coated bulbs.
Weedy roadsides are constant
sources of trouble for the adjoining
farm lands. The seeds are carried
miles by automobiles, horses, and pass
ing wagons, SO that they become a
menace to the whole community. If
nothing better can be done with the
roadside weeds they can be moved
twice a year. This treatment, if we'll
kept up, will effectively check the trou.
hle. Sometimes a roadside can be con
verified into a lawn, or it can be used
for crops, to the pride and profit OF
the farmers whose land it borders.
Control Measures.
The underlying principles of weet
control are shown in these rules by
the specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture:
Use pure seed.
Rotate the farm crops.
Utilize %pasturing animals, particu
larly sheep and goats, in keeping
weeds down.
Never allow weeds to mature. Nov
before the seeds have ripened.
Use intertilled crops, and cultivate
often.
Kill weeds while they are young b,
means of a harrow or a weeder.
Compost ant for two months be
fore using II it contains weed seeds.
Practice surface cultivation aftel
the crops have been removed in the
fall.
Use smother crops; huckwleat, so,
beans, cowpeas, velvet beans. clover
etc.
Chemical poisons often are helpful
Prepare the seed beds thoroughly t.
give the crop a start over the weeds.
Use winter v crops.
Hunt out the scattered weeds, ant
kill them.
Nov dangerous grasses and hurl
the dry cuttings.
Small patches of perennial weed,
can be killed by covering for the en-
tire season with building paper, boards
or other materials TO exclude the light
Kill the roots OF perennial weeds b.
keeping the tops cut down.
Grow alfalfa, when practicable, o.
weed-infested land.

or green manure WIN help 70 contro
