Johnsongrass Infesting
States Best CrOpland

Johnsongrass, a crop chok-
ing, hard to control weed, is
steadily infesting some of Del
aware's best cropland. Small
patches are spreading. seeds
are being scattered to the four
winds and new areas are being
infested.
This bothersome weed has
plagued the southern portion of
the country for years. Gradu-
ally, it is working its waynorth-
ward. Thousands of acres of the
Delmarva Peninsula are al
ready seeded. Scattered John
songrass stands have been To-
Gated as far north as the Del
aware Chesapeake Canal.
In addition to its strangling
effect on corn and other grain
crops, Johnsongrass contains a
toxic material known as prussic
acid which can casue heavy
death loss in livestock. Al
Smyrna times., 1962-06-28

though prussic acid is present
in the plants at all times, the
amounts become dangerously
high under certain adverse con-
ditions such as frosts, droughts,
or periods of unusual growth.
1t is not unusual for animals
to die within a few hours after
eating the poisonous material.
Once established, Johnson
grass is extremely difficult to
control. Eradication is expen-
sive and time consuming. Small
patches can be controlled quite
effectively. Once these areas
spread, however, eradication Is
a long and painful process.
According to DR.. william

Problems

A wo-day workshop de-
signed to give extension spe-
cialists an understanding of for
mula feed industry problems
and trends will be held at the
University of Delaware, New
ark, on Thursday and Friday,
June 28 and 29. The workshop
will be the last of three reg
ional workshops conducted by
Robert w. Schoeff, Kansas State
University Extension Special
ist, who is in charge of plan
ming and developing a pilot ed
ucational program for the feed
industry. Richard Baker. also
Kansas State specialist, will as
sist with the workshop.
Two similar workshops we're
held at Manhattan, Kansas, on
June A and S, and at Athens,
Georgia, on June l9 and 20.
Twenty extension specialists
from nine northeastern states
are expected for the Newark
Workshop. The workshop is be-
ing conducted by the Kansas
State Formula Feed Extension
staff In cooperation with the
Federal Extension Service and
the Delaware Extension Ser
vice. W. T. McAllister, extern
sion farm management spec
ialist, is serving as coordinator
for the Newark meeting.
The Regional Workshops will
feature educational materials
and programs developed by
Kansas State for the formula

Face Many
Problems

Turkey producers face the
1862 marketing year after a
very difficult year in 1861,
according to w. T. McAllister,
University of Delaware farm
management specialist.
Last years 28 percent in
crease in production over 1860,
to more than l08 million turkeys
in the U.S., brought about a
drastic price drop. Many pro-
ducers we're quite efficient, but
lacked the financial resources
to withstand a drastic price
decline. The average price for
turkeys in 1861 was 1879 cents
a pound compared to 25.4 cents
in the previous year.
In highlighting a report by
USDA's Economic Research
Service, McAllister points out
that only one half as many US.
farms raised turkeys in 1889,
the year of the last census of
Agriculture, as in 1854. And the
number of birds raised on each
farm increased from $40 to
953. In Delaware, there we're
383 growers In 1854 and l58
in 1859.
Growers in Delaware during
1861 produced 246,0 turkeys,
and slaughtered 246, 900. The
total liveweight of 3,9ll, 900
pounds, which sold at an aver
age price of 20.9 cents per
pound, was above the national
average. The gross income
from turkeys in this state was
$4,000.
Consumption of turkey in
creased from five pounds per
person in 1855 to rs pounds in
1861, mainly because of lower
prices and partly because of
rising consumer incomes. A
bout half of the drop in prices
and half of the increase in con-
sumption took place between
1860 and 1861. Turkey sales
we're 28 percent greater in 1861
than In 1860 and prices to
producers we're down 26 per-
cent.

can be further weakened by
shallow plowing in November.
Plow deep enough to turn out
the rhizomes but avoidas much

rhizomes, if exposed to winter
temperatures, will usually be
killed.
Clean cultivation can reduce

wait, small patches are spread
ing over their entire farms.
Johnsongrass is tall, grow
thy plant with stems the size
of a lead pencil and leaves from
one half TO one and a half inches
wide with a light green midrib.
Johnsongrass often attains the
height of 10 feet but usually av-
erages about six feet. The seeds
grow in open, loosely branched
clusters.
Johnsongrass is extremely
hard to deal with because II
spreads and thickens from
seeds and rhizomes. These
rhizomes, which are heavy,
underground stems, live over
the winter and in spring send
out new shoots.
The easiest way to eliminate
Johnsongrass is TO keep itfrom
forming seeds. ANY method of
destroying the topgrowth before
seeds form should be used.
Since controls are difficult and
expensive and the weed spreads
quickly underground, 1t is
virtually impossible to control
stand unless seedpropogation is
halted.
Flood waters spread more
Johnsongrass seed than any
other means. Johnsongrass
seed may also be carried in
crop seeds, grain. hay, bedding,
and mulching materials.
Another way many fields be-
come contaminated is by allow
ing harvesting equipment to be
used on the farm that has been
In operation on infested land.
Johnsongrass seedlings can
be killed during the first three
to six weeks of growth by the
usual methods of controlling
annual weeds and grasses. After
six weeks, however, rhizomes
are formed and new growth can
come from the rhiZomes even
though the tops of the plants
have been killed. Only in the
early seeding stage will a
single application of any chem :
ical give complete control. Es-
tablished stands nearly always
need follow up treatment.
One of the most practical
ways to control large infest-
ations is through close grazing.
Pasturing must be heavy, es-
pecially during the summer
months, to keep the growth
down. After TWO or three years
of grazing, the stand will be
considerably weakened and
most of the rhizomes will be
concentrated in the first few
inches of soil. F requent NOV
ings will give similar results.

4UERBAcH EMPHASIZES LOAD SHARING
CeItics Value More Than Points

Red Auerbach of the Bos-
ton Celtics says he doesn't care
about points, which must be
the months strangest quote
from a basketball coach.
Auerbach has been around
long enough to know that points
win games. When he says he
doesn't care about them, he
means only that he doesn't
care a hoot which Celtic scores
them.
All of this takes on some i'm
portance hereabouts because
the Celtics play the Los An
geles Lakers in the University
of Maryland's Cole Fieldhouse
Thursday night. The game is
sponsored by the M Club for
its scholarship fund.
Lately the Celtics haven't
been winning because they
haven't been scoring enough,
which may prove Auerbach's
theory in reverse. They've lost
four straight games, not be-
cause they're missing q high
scorer, but because they're
missing their top rebounder,
Bill Russell.
Plays to Win
AS Auerbach sees it, winning
is the important thing, not the
scoring. He insists he'd take
a 27-25 victory any day over
a 189-188 loss. and apparently
he has convinced his team of
it, too.
: "Our guys get paid for win
ming" Auerbach says. I'VE
have guys averaging 8 or 8
points drawing $4,000. That's
how much winning means to
US.
Jim Loscutoff. for instance,
does nothing but box out, feed
the pivot and pick for us, but
he's paid big. Same for Frank
Ramsey, who used to be our
sixth man."
Owner Not Impressed
Auerbach pauSes a moment.
1.-THE trouble with some guys is
that they have false hustle. On
the road. you'll see some guys
scoring big. That's to impress
the owner back home when he
picks up the newspaper. Our
owner, Walter Brown, shows
very little interest in the box
score"
Because the Celtics believe
in share-the-load and balance,
few folks can rattle off the
name of their current top
scorer. The guessing probably
would start with Bob Cousy or,
perhaps, Russell, but the man
who says Tommy Heinsohn is
right. He's the big producer, but
Cousy, the Incompatible play
maker, is the big-money man.
The Celtics expect Russell to
be back for Thursdays game
here and that will bring them
back to full strength.

Germany:
Minor Crisis

A Bonn government crisis
was resolved last week when
Chancellor Adenauer bowed to
the demands of the Free Dem
Ocratic Party following the pO-
lice action against Der Spiegel,
a German news magazine.
Der Spiegel "The Mirror'D is
a lively, expose-hunting weekly
news magazine founded in Ham
burg after the war. Since it is
the only German magazine of its
kind, it is widely read, and its
influence is enormous.
Like its counterparts in the
United States, Der Spiegel Spe-
cializes on penetrating cover
stories that bring the reader the
news behind the news. Sometimes
- its critics say usually" - its
stories contain as many half facts
as facts. Its popularity (circula-
ton 100000 weekly is due partly
at least to its constant criticism
of the government - which has
been in power for as long as
Der Spiegel has published.
On october 10. the magazine
ran a story on Gen. Foertsch.
inspector general of the West
German armed forces. The arti-
Gle, however, was less profile
than an expose on the unprepar-
