production to say nothing of their unsightly appearance badly neglected fields on a good farmers property presents a prob lem for his neighbor as well as the weed inspector human nature being what it is a neighbors friend ship is valued and so very rarely do we have complaints submitted on this type of property never theless we all know that every weed allowed to go to seed is the means of spreading and starting new ones many times have i wondered just why this type of condition is allowed to persist and the follow ing questions run through my mind has the owner- lost interest in the farm can it be that the real estate value is increasing so fast that making a living from the soil is no longer of primary importance will the dirty pas ture field be clipped in time coutd it be a case of shortage of help or equipment perhaps all or the above reasons may ap ply but i believe the latter not weed conscious is more often the case more than eighty farmers in halton are listed as owners of weed sprayers about everyone has a mower and the majority are power operated surely these are the two handiest implements to prevent weeds from being a men ace in pastures etc just a couple of hours with a weed sprayer about fix or six dollars worth of chemical applied at the proper time will eliminate the chickory from that ten acre pasture by the road or the third field back which looks so blue in the mornings however if this job was forgotten at the right time and maybe the wild carrot or chickary or thistle are going to go to seed and blow over to the neighbors youre not stuck yet try to find enough spare time to run over these fields with the mower the weeds will at least be controlled and the neighbors will he much happier this fall there may be enough rain to make the chickory and carrot grow and that will be a good time to ue the weed sprayer if the residents engaged in agri culture in halton county could t be just a little more weed con- 1 scious i am sure the appearance j of our rural communities would i be greatly improved in addition j to this many dollars worth of mois- j turc andplant food would be con- served for increased crop yields personals
