More Farmers Should Get Into the Game--How to Control Perennial gow Thistle and Twitch Grass-- Gther Weed Destruction Methods Given Next Week. (Centributed by Ontaric Department oi Agriculture, Toronto.) During the past ten years (1911- 1921) the Ontario Agricultural and Experimental Union has conducted co-operative experiments in weed eradication. Over ninety farmers have carried out successful experi- ments. The weeds experimented with were:--Perennial Sow Thistle, Twiteh Grass, Bladder Campion or Cow Bell, Wild Mustard, Ozx-eye Daisy, Field Bindweed, Wild Oats Those who took part in these experiments profited by the ex- perience. In nearly every instance they cleaned the field experimented with, and demonstrated to their own satisfaction the effectiveness of the method tried, and at the same time their results furnished practical information to others. Experiments For the Current Year. 1. The use of rape in the destrue- tion of Perennial Sow Thistle. Perennial Sow Thistle. tion of Twitch Grass. 4. A method of cultivation for the destruction of Twitch Grass. 5. A raethod cultivation for the eradication of Cow Bell. 6. Spraying with iron sulphate to destroy mustard in cereal crops. 7. A method of cultivation for the destruction of Ox-eye Daisy. 8. A method of cultivation and gropping for the suppression of Field Bindweed or Wild Morning Glory {requires two years to complete). 9. A method of cultivation and gropping for the eradication of Wild Qats (reguires two years to com- plete.) ; 10. A method of cultivation for the destruction of Chess. All who have any of the above weeds on their farms are invited to @o-operate in this work. -Information regarding the carrying out of these experiments may be secured by writ- ing to Prof. J. E. Howitt, Director, Co-operative Experiments in Weed Hradication, Botanical Department, ©. A. C., Guelph. The results of the fen years' ex- periments would warrant the recom- mendation of the following method for the eradication of Twitch Grass and the Perennial Sow Thistle. How to prevent Mustard from seeding in cereal crops, and how to eradicate Bladder Campion or Cow Bell, will be dealt with next week. The Rape Method for the Control of Perennial Sow Thistle and Twitch Grass. Cultivate the field until about the middle of June, running over it fre- quently with the cultivator so as to keep the tops down and thus weaken the "roots." A cultivator with broad points should be used, which will cut off the Sow Thistle or Twitch Grass ° oe not break up the root stocks too much. apply manure at the rate of about twenty tons per acre (twelve good loads). Cultivate the manure in thor- oughly and with a double mould board plough slightly ridge up the land, making the ridges about twenty-six inches apart. On the ridges sow pasture rape (Dwarf Essex variety) at the rate of about one and a half pounds per acre. It is important that the right amount of rape be sown, for if too little is gown the stand will not be thick enough to smother the weeds and if, on the other hand, too much is sown the rape plants will be too crowded and not grow vigorously enough to keep ahead of the Twitch Grass or Sow Thistle. Sow the rape when the land is sufficiently moist to secure guiek germination of the seed. If the rape is slow in starting tbe Twiteh Grass or Sow Thistle may get a gtart in the rows and thus neces- gitate hand eultivation. Cultivate the rape every week or ten days until it occupies all the ground and makes further cultivation impossible. when the rape is cut or pastured any of the weeds remain the field should be ridged up last thing in the fall and put in with another hoed crop the ouing year. This has not been found necessary when a good stand of rape has been secured. In cur co-operative weed experi- ments it has been found that rape. is a much more satisfactory crop 7o use in the. eradication of Twiteh rags than buckwheat and that rape 2 Twiteh Grass and Perea- Thistle when sown in drills tiv ed than it does when ast.--J.
