The damage to tho second crop alfalfa may bo lessened to a great extent If the field is dusted thoroly after tho first crop Is cut. Many of tho hay -growers are cutting tho crop early in the hopes oT heading tho weevil off. Tho effect, of this will bo to start tho worms eating on l,n onnnnrl frnn hllrifl linlpSB theV arO destroyed, and tho second crop will be delayed for several weeks. If the land Is already dry and reason ably loose It can bo dragged with a Bplketooth ' harrow the teeth tilted hnck and several thicknesses of wire fencing placed underneath, tho rig being rodo by tho driver stand ing on a plank laid "crosswise on ton of iho harrow. If tho land is soddy and bard, it shouhi be loos ened with a springtootb. harrow and then dusted. Tho worm's are killed by being rolled in hot dust. This method has been practiced for 20 years in Utah. Tho objections to it Is the practical loss of tho first crop which should be tho largest and most valuable of all, really making up about 50 of the feed ing value of a normal yield. Many fields havo been reduced In stand through the work of tho weev 11 until It would. Beom desirable to sow something in to incroaso tho yield of hay In the second crop. In such cases Sudan rass is proDauiy about tho best thing to use as it matures nulcker than any i other high yielding plant. About 8 ppunds of seed per aero Is considered a full seeding. This amount could be cut down In accordance with the amount of alfalfa. By seeding ahead of tho harrowing opertions and follow ing up with irrigation no trouble should bo experienced In getting a stand. Cutting might need to bo delayed slightly until the Sudan grass bad fouhed seeds in prder to get the most value out o it a's the plant, like others of the sorgum and corn family forms tho valuable sugats and carbohydrates duVing tho latter stages of growth.
