Good Sanitation By COUNTY AGENTS Nematode and Weed Control Those of you with small garden plots or flower seed beds can get excellent weed and nematode con trol. One method is using a soil fumi gant methyl Bromide. It is sold as a ^as in pressure containers and must be applied'under plastic gas proof covers. This gas will kill practically all types of weed seed and also kill nematodes. Many folks use this material to reestablish lawn grasses, by killing the old unwant ed grass and sprigging or seeding the desired grass. The cost for large areas would be too high, but for small areas it is reasonable. One can will treat one hundred square feet for about one dollar expense. Most folks pur chase a plastic cover large en ough to cover more than one hund red square feet at one time. For information about this and other soil fumigants contact the County Agents Office. Newberry have found that scat tering oats in the litter will en courage more scatching and there by assist in keeping the litter dry. No matter how you do it; the important thing is to have dry litter. We recommend to all produc ers that do not now have their waterers mounted on platforms to do so right away.
