Dolm Explains Method
OF Checking White Aster

In answer to several inquiries from
Wayne county farmers. County Agent
Dolan has secured from A A. Hansen,
Purdue, weed expert, information re
garding the white aster or steelweed,
and methods of destroying it. This
weed, also called fall white-top, heath
aster and frost weed, is a bushy tough.
stemmed weed of three feet height.
which ruins hay fields and pastures
in which it secures a good foothold.
Presence Of the weed is an indication
OF need for soil improvement" says
Mr.. Hansen. A thick growth of grass
es will choke it out The weed should
be moved about the middle of Sept
ember before the stems tougher, or
the seeds ripen. Because the seeds
are tufted, they are easily scattered
and the weed is hard to eradicate.
Roadsides and fences should be clean
ed out also, or they will re-seed whole
fields
