twilight weed meet is well attended the first weed meeting of its kind ever held in halt on was staged on friday evening at the farm of medforth pewtrcss in trafalgar township despite unfavorable wea ther conditions some sixty were on hand for the excellent programme stanley young field man tor the crops seeds weeds branch of the ontario department of agriculture was the special speaker certainty it was a programme which anyone interested in weed control cquld ill afford to miss in the county of halton weeds are costing hundreds of thousands of dollars annually municipal auth orities in the county in many cases are spending anywhere from 1500 to 2 000 annually on roadside spray ing some are doing an excellent job and others quite the reverse it would seem logical to us that in the future when such a meeting is being held that township and county auth orities might well see to it that those charged with the responsibil ity of controlling roadside weeds are in attendance chemical weed killers mark one of the greatest ad vances in agricultural science of the past ten years however it is ery obvious as one goes about the coun ty that there is a tremendous differ ence in the results bcint secured in short 515 00 pr mile in some muni cipalities is giving much better con trol or results than 30 00 per mile in others hamilton construction at your service for concrete work
