When you have this kind of a spring, the annual weeds don't seem to sprout, so when you are working your land and getting it ready for seeding, you aren't killing any of the annual weeds because they haven't started to sprout or grow. As a result, you may have a pretty bad weed problem later on this summer. You ought to think very seriously of a good chemical weed control, program later this spring when the time is ready. We used to have to summer fallow some of the good land just to control weeds, however, with the new chemicals you can crop every acre of land if you do a good job of weed cinfrol with some of the cultural and chemical practices that we know of today.

We have had a lot of people in already bringing in a package of nice little blue flowers that hey have on their lawns. As many of you know, this is creeping Charlie or creeping ivy. The ordinary 2-4-D will not con trol this lawn weed. When you buy 2-l-D, be sure you read the ingredients that are hi that con tainer. If it has Silvex in it, you will have a control for creeping Charlie, Iwcause it takes Silvex to control it.

Be sure and read what is in the container when you buy if.

This can be either 10 per cent granular or dust Apply at the rate of 2 2 pounds per 1,000 square feet of area You can broadcast this and rake it into the soil before planting or it can be sprinkled into the seed furrow at the rate of I ounce per 100 feet of row.
