Au exception to this Is found In the winter annuals, which come up hi the fall, lire through the winter as small plants and produce xecdj.be following Spring..

These weeds are usually not so plentiful but that they can be carlly destroyed by pnIHug before they form seed. By-doing this they may lie kept from becoming thick enough to do any serious damage.

There is no^bener implement for killing weeils before rairti camos up than the harrow. Harrowing la a cheap operation, rlneo so many acres can be gone over In a day. The more times a cornfield enn be gone over with the hnrrop’ before.the corn comca up the better. In harrowing to kill weeds care should be taken not to do ■ Hie work when the weather Is cloudy or the grocmd too wet, or the wceils will be transplanted rather than killed, j In regard to the value of harrowing j growlcg corn opinions differ greatly, j ft Is ulmoKt Impossible, however, to j harrow cern without destroying some of It. It Is a waste of time to tost tho seed and planter with the Idea of getting a good stand and then harrow part of It out. Unless the weeds are very bnd the harrow had better be put away In the machine shed as soon ns the corn begins to appear above .,.th* iwirftiee of the ground.

If the grain Is drilled In on a properly prepared seed ked it will get such a start that most of the weaal^ will be smothered out and die for lack of plant food and light. One annual that is sometimes rToublesoTnc In gt‘a infieTdj Is itiusTn rd. Since this weed is easily killed by cultivation It seldom g-.os to seed in cornfield#. Consequently when small grain follows corn there Is little mustard seed In the soil except that which Is sown with the oats. There is another annual, or rather winter annual, that t« much harder to eradicate than those mentioned so fa* This is squlrreltall grass, so called be cause of Its fuzzy heads.

When the ground D wet cultivation will do more to spread perennial weeds than to kid them. The pieces of the underground stems which stick to the shovels will grow wherever they happen to fall and thus start a new center of trouble." a»f all the means of getting rid of perennial weevls that hare been tried none !- so effective as turning the (Veld Into a hog pasture.
