Last Wednesday I helped
Frank Phlpps. weed secla!iit
from OSU. harvest selective
cheat grass control plots at the
Walt Jacobs ranch south of lone.
We created a lot of Interest from
passers-by who stooped to see
the 7'i foot Massey Harris self
propelled combine which we
used In harvesting our 8 foot
bv 40 foot plots. While we did not
determine actual yields per acre
n the field it was interesting to
note that yields run from 2 lbs.
to li lbs. of wheat per plot.

checking results of experimental
plots established for the control
of morning glory and other per
ennial noxious weeds. A tour of
the county visiting these plots
showed that TBA was doing an
ideal job when applied properly.
One of the reasons for the tour
was to determine If lower quan
tities of TBA were satisfactorily
doing the Job. There Is some dif
ference of opinion between re
search and commercial people
concerning rates of application of
TBA. This office has recommen
(led the rate of 10 gallons or
20 lbs. TBA as this has consis
tently given a complete control
of morning glory when applied
properly. Applications using les
ser amounts have been spotty
that Is, giving good results In
some cases, poor results In other
cases. We continue to recommend
the rate because most ranchers
are Interested In a once-over op
