Similar meetings are scheduled for the Community Hall at Lorel la Thursday evening. June 27. and at the BIy Grange Hall Fri day evening. June 28. Farmers are insisting on inten sified control effort against Cana dian thistle because this noxious weed is spreading. Control work in the past has successfully reduced infestations of other noxious perennials but has not prevented spread of Ca nadian thistle, largely because some thistle infestations have been allowed to produce seed. Pressure from farmers for en forcement of the Weed Control District law resulted in establish ment of a Weed Revolving Fund, in the pending county budget, for additional weed control service landowners at cost. The argu ments for providing the service were that many farmers have neither time or equipment to spray thistles at the time when herbicides should be applied. Weed Control District laws re quire landowners to control nox ious weeds. The County Weed Con trol supervisor is charged with carrying out control work where landowners do not; and provides for assessment of costs against ownership involved. The law gives county weed supervisors quaran tine powers. Minimum ni.ont ahla rnntm ' consists of cutting or mowing be fore seed formation: however, the Canadian thistle campaign is di rected toward eradication over a period of time through use of herbicides and use of soil steri- lants. Count Weed Control Supervi sor Schieferstein announced that control by mowing or cutting will be considered acceptable if car- capability for the County Weed J rid oul ,y Juy 2n control unit. Mowing or cutting after seed Spray service is available to fnrmation wi not acceptable, Scheiferstein said. Newer herbicides such as ATZ, Amitrol "T," Banville D, TBA. Bintrol and Tordon are ma terials ranging from newly prom ising to proven to be quite effec tive in the case of ATZ. An eight-month restriction of grazing after application of ATZ limits use of this every etfective herbicide. Single applications of ATZ.

Ph. TU 4-3121 high percentage of kill in most of many Canadian thistle infesta tions treated by county equipment tlte last few years. ATZ has been used at six to eight pounds per 100 gallons and Amitrol "T" at two gallons of two-pound material per 100 gal lons of solution. Repeated spraying with four pounds of 2.4-D per too gallons also gives eventual eradication. Two spray applications annually are recommended for 2.4-D with the first application delayed until thistles are growing actively and there is enough foliage to receive a lethal dosage of spray. Air applications or spray boom application of less than one pound of 2.4-D per acre for selective control of annual weeds have little effect on deep rooted perenni als. tllcctive control requires spot treatment property timed and gallonage near or exceeding 100 gallons per acre, depending on growth present.

Don't Pick Wild Flowers On Highway There is a spot in your garden that is just right for one of those native rhododendrons growing along the highway right-of-way and maybe you could get some o.' those lady's slippers to grow. Don't be tempted to dig them or even pick them.
