Those pesky plants that cut down crop yields in Ore gon fields and gardens and cause production costs to rise, had bet ter start worrying. At least those in corn, bean, onion and legume fields. Scientists at Oregon State col lege have been testing two types of selective weed killers that look quite promising for control of such annual grass and broadleaf weeds as pigweed, annual blue grass and purslane. .William R. Furtick, in charge of the experimental work, says that when applied properly the chemi cals shouldn't harm the crop. Used as a spray, the chemicals are applied directly to soils after planting and prior to the time the weeds come up. Rates vary from 3 to 12 pounds per acre. The weed killers belong to two different groups of chemicals, chloro-acetamides and thio-car-bamates. Their commercial value will depend upon their cost per acre, and whether or not they are effective under a wide range of conditions. Furtick emphasizes that further tests are necessary before the chemicals can be released for gen eral use. o Mrs. Emma Anderson returned last Friday after a two months visit at the home of her daugh ter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. F.
