water is subject to loss in at least
two ways. Some OF it will be evap-
Grated from the surface of the soil
and still more of it may be drawn
out OF the soil and thrown off into
the air by weeds.
Weeds Use Much Water
Cultivation of the soil will do much
to prevent this loss OF water. The
small amount OF study which has been
given to the use of water by weeds
indicates that even the most drought
resistant varieties use large quanti-
ties. There is belief that so long
as weeds do not actually crowd out
the crops they do no harm. In case
the water supply is plentiful and the
weeds are plowed back into the soil.
