Chemicals Replace
Hoes in Beets

HAND HOEING and unnecessary
cultivation of sugar beets for con-
troll of grasses and other weeds may
soon be a thing Of the past. STCA
sodium trichloroacetate) newly de-
veloped grass killer may offer farm
ers an effective control measure
against grasses in beet rows without
injury to the plant, according to
preliminary experiments.
Research workers for weed con-
troll chemical companies and sugar
beet factories have watched sue
cessful use of general contact cheni-
Gals for weed control as pre-
emergence sprays to kill weeds that
emerge ahead of the beets. The
workers have also observed the use
Of selective sprays to kill the weeds
IN growing beets.
Both have been valuable, but later
terminating weeds usually reduce
the benefit of pre-emergence treat
ments, and selective sprays are not
effective on grasses. This still leaves
the problem Of finding control Of
annual grasses, particularly water
grasses, in growing beets.
SeIective and Contact Sprays
The answer, the research workers
believe, may lie ID in the use of a
selective chemical like STCA, that
would not harm the growing beets.
Or the answer could be 90 in the use
Of a general dinitro@type contact
spray placed so that the beets would
not be injured, completely covering
the soil surface between and in the
rows.
Sodium Tea can apparently be
used on beets of all ages from before
emergence to nearly mature at rates
mp to Is podnds with safety. The
chemical is water soluble and must
be taken into the grass root system,
30 irrigation must follow spraying.
Best results with STCA were OBJ
tanned IN the California tests using
10 5 pounds of the 80. percent
chemical per acre applied before
the grasses terminated. Or applica-
! ton when the grasses were less than

aging their land for short grasses,
not knowing that the short grasses
are not the natural predominant
vegetation for the soil and climate,
and that greater production and wa

z inches high with irrigation follow
ing spraying by ; or 4 days was also
found effective.
A slight marginal leaf burn from
overall sprays with STCA at higher
temperatures was the only observ-
able effect on the beets. This can be
avoided, the research workers say,
by using shields to lift the leaves
so the chemical is sprayed on the
bare soil or on the seeding grasses.
Yields and sugar percentage were
not reduced by the treatment
Dinitro Sprays
The second chemical method for
controlling water grasses consists of
spraying with dinitro-type contact
herbicides in oil or an oil emulsion.
Shielded spray MOBILES must be used
to avoid injuring the beet leaves.
From the or leaf stage until the
beets are IL inches high, the shields
should protect the plants rather COM
plete1y. After the 12-inch stage, it
is only necessary to lift the leaves,
permitting the sprays to overlap the
rows beneath the leaves.
Shields to lift the beet leaves
above the spray may be constructed
of 1O-inch ditchipg shovels fitted
with 24-inch strips of betting held
against the beet leaves by piece Of
spring steel on the lower side. Noz-
zles could be suspended on pipe sup
ports behind the shields.
Application rates Of the dinitro-
type contact weed chemicals found
satisfactory in these preliminary
tests were either: (D one quart of
contact chemical plus 40 gallons Of
diesel oil per acre; or ~ one quart
Of chemical plus Is gallons Of diesel
oil and IS gallons of water per acre.
Advantages
Among the apparent advantages Of
chemical grass control in sugar beets
are:
!. Gets grasses in the row, which
ordinary cultivation does not.
q Cost of chemicals at $3.50 to 81
per acre is less than the usual cost
of hoeing.
3. Does not break down the seed
beds. ea
4. Does not bring more weed seeds
TO the surface to terminate later.
It is recommended that, as with
any other new practice, these chemi-
cal grass killers be tried on small
acreages on a trial basis It also
should be remembered that best re-
suits will be obtained when STCA
is irrigated in on seeding grasses;
that the degree of control obtain
able may vary with different soils,
and that the contact-type chemicals
will injure beets if shielding does
not properly protect the leaves.

1t can prevent savings by leaving nothing over after living expenses. The tax guarantees poverty.
 When to the income tax is added a complex system of excises and hidden taxes, it is possible for gov ernment to arrange for an economy which permits the appearances ot high wages and even high prices while all the time the standard of life is being depreciated and the middle class is being squeezed out of existence.
 In this country we are now op- serving precisely this process, par ticularly as it affects the white collar and professional classes. For them, very little hope of self-im- provement is left. Their doom IS to find rated jobs in government, jobs which pay little, permit of no initi- ativc, require featherbedding to survive and end in low standard retirement pension. If that IS pie in the sky, it certainly is nc, ot the American dream.
 If we complain that too many Americans are on the government payroll, we are in error. For Ii we permit our white collar and cul- tural classes to be taxed out of opportunity for self-improvement, they must take government jobs as no others are available to them. In the past, such Americans made their own opportunities out of their ingenuity, their ability to save or to borrow from their neighbors. They were not inhibited by govern ment through taxes.
 Tn a word. the revolution which the New Deal under Harry Hopkins introduced and the Fair Deal under Leon Keyserling seeks to complete is being accomplished with even greater skill than Lenin exhibited in Russia. The .Bolsheviks em- ployed terror and murder and con- fiscation as weapons.
 The American revolution is being accomplished by means of taxes principally the income tax, by pre- meditated wasteful expenditure of the peoples money, and by depre- ciating tlie currency. And the revo- lutionists can truthfully say that lit is done with our consent we authorized the revolution by our votes,

Tennessee Keeps Top, Grid Poll

NEW YORK, Nov. 27-tPTen- nessee's Sugar Bowl-bound Vols en- joy sweet margin today as the nations top team in the Associated Press football poll.
 The undefeated and united terrors of the south piled up the largest vote of the season to retain their billing as the best in the land.
 Tennessee amassed 1,508 points and drew 92 first-place ballots out of 168 from the sports writers and broadcasters to easily out-distance runnerup Michigan State.
 The Spartans, boasting the same record as Tennessee, 90, collected 34 first-place votes and 1879 points. Maryland, Tennessees foe on New Years Day, came home third with Is firsts and 1,257 points. Illinois, the Big Tens Rose Bowl represen- tative, climbed from sixth to fourth place with 1,030 points.

Teams Picked For Rose Bowl; Who Gan Win!

PASADENA, Calif., Nov. 27-tRt- With Stanford and Illinois officially named to meet in the Rose Bowl New Years Day. spectators were counting on their fingers today in an effort to predict winner.
 Well, no matter how you juggle the arithmetic, the 38th renewal of the granddaddy of all bowl games figures out tighter than a new pair of shoes.
 Even Chuck Taylor. Stanfords rookie coach, declined to venture a forecast. He called the turn on nine straight victories for his team this season, but missed on number 10. Maybe Illinois will be too tough to handle" was all he cared to say.
 Coach Red Sanders, whose UCLA Bruins lost to both Illinois and Stanford, described the Illini as capable of whipping anything the Pacific coast can put on the field" And Coach Howie Odell of Wash ington, likewise beaten by both, was of the same, albeit more reserved opinion.
 All of which tends to foreshadow l the west coasts sixth straight drub- ping since it inaugurated it's pact with the Big Ten in 1947 = the year Illinois walloped UCLA, 45-14. Maybe you can figure it differ ently. Not that it proves anything, here's how the Rose Bowl teams fared against three common op- ponents this season:
