Acreage contracted to the sec
retary of agriculture by those
signing wheat contracts offers an
opportunity for weed control, and
with some kinds of weeds, eraa-
lcatlon on those fields taken out
ff production. Terms of the con
tract call for weed control ana
the inspection of farms will also
include compliance in respect to
weeds on the contracted acres.
One of the methods ot weed
control is complete cultivation.
Canada thistle and quack grass
can be largely, if not completely,
eradicated by this method. Care
should be exercised in keeping
all foliage turned under or cut
oft during the summer in warm
weather. It the. weeds are left
until a good growtti is made, then
cut, raked and burned, the roots
are weakened and it plowing fol
lows this operation, turning the
roots up to the sun, a good kill
will result. Discing or spring
tooth harrowing when regrowth
appears, to keep all foliage off,
will starve the roots.
Control of quack grass is sim
ilar. Pasturing until hot weather
is possible with this weed, which
Has tne same eiiect as cutting, due
it also tends to make the root sys
tem shallow. The land should be
plowed Just deep enough to get
under the roots and turned up to
the sun and left in the furrow
slice to dry out. As soon as the
grass begins to grow aeain, the
land should be disced. .The next
cultivation should be with
spring tooth harrow to bring the
roots uo to the surface where they
are exposed to toe sun io ury
out. Raking and burning the
roots when they are dry will in
crease the kill. This cultivation
will also control the annual weeds,
such as mustard, bull thistle,
French weed, etc. Morning glory
can also be kept nnder control but
care is essential in keeping all fol-
slage cut a with Canada. tntstie.
