ark going wild- in halton pastures may have been short on many farms but halton has one crop whiob dldnt seem to suffer from lack of moisture and that is wild carrot many fields are be seen in practically every mmunity which are positive disgrace to halton agriculture and it is not confined to land which has been bought for subdi vision here and there one sees a clean farm and it must be heart breaking and exasperating to such operators to have neighbours who apparently are making no effort to keep their weeds under control the year 1958 may not have been the best year to get 100 per cent results from spraying but surely every farm operator has a mower true cutting doesn t eradicate but at least it would prevent a lot of the carrot chicory and bull thist les from seeding we still main tain that 2 46 at 16 to 24 ounces of acid to the acre if applied in early june will kill 00 per cent of the carrot charts the first time a field is sprayed after that 32 ounces of brushkill acid to the acre and when we say brushkill we mean one part 2 4d to one part 2 45t will get the balance the reason why 2 4d does not er adicate all wild carrot is due to the fact that there is more than one species and hence the reason for the addition of the 24 56 to git the more resistant species toad aaunrlum aw railway sap- erinteadenti have been trlamtrl for the spraadof weeds and cer tainly they must accept their share of the responsibility bat frankly my readers most admit there are innumerable fields which are at bad or worse than any piece of roaslde or railroad right of way that can be pointed oul we cant help but wonder if a lot of us arcn t a bit like a far mer friend of mine who had plenty of weeds on his own pro perty but pointing to his neigh bour s field said there isnt any
