iccii rciluceil very much some
seasons, and fields have been re
ported from which practically no
seed was harvested. In most
eases lliis was Hue lo trie clover
flower midge, which is a very
small lly that deposits its eggs in
the clover blossoms and the lar
va which hatches feeds on the
young seed. Where both hay and
seed are desired the midge can
controlled by cutting the hay
at the proper time. Ordinarily
if cut not later than the first
week of June Ibis first genera-j
lion will be destroyed and the,
seed crop will then be free from
the pest. Where the crop has
been pastured early in the season
ire must be taken that no blos
soms be left after the above date.

the root mat. The land should
then be harrow vd, preferably
ith a spring-tooth, care being
taken not to drag the root to ui!-
infested areas. Cultivation must
then be continued throughout the
growing season. Usually it is a
good plan to follow with a heavy
smother crop, as oats and vetch.
This crop may be harvested ear

ed the second season to a culti

cleanly cultivated never allowing
