Control Weeds In Spring Grain POT I KIT UCKY tea p5cfcj 86 PROOF Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey If there are more than a few scattered weeds in grain fields it pays to take control measures. Early planted spring grain has made rapid growth the past few days. But good soil moisture and warm days are also favorable to weed growth. These pests rob soil of moisture and fertility and re duce yields. They also make grain difficult to harvest. By spraying with 2-4D most an nual weeds can be killed com pletely and at least the tops killed kill-ed on most perennials. This is possible without injury to grain. Spraying should 'be done after grain has stolled out well and before be-fore it reaches the booting stage. We recommend that 2-4D be used at the rate of 3-4 pounds per acre for small weeds. The application ap-plication should be increased up to 1 pounds per acre for larger weeds. Most of the common brands on the market contain one pound of active 2-4D per quart. Therefore apply 3-4 to 1 quarts of 2-4D per acre. Mix the chemical with water and use 10 or more gallons of solution per acre. Farmers should be careful when spraying around sensitive crops, flowers or desirable trees. Don't spray near them when the wind is blowing. Marven J. Ogden Ass't.

LOGAN Topnotch foundation stock and a program of contin uous and careful culling of animals that fail to equal or improve upon their parents are necessary in breeding superior lines of beef cattle. cat-tle. The U. S. Department of Agriculture's Ag-riculture's range livestock experiment exper-iment station in Miles City, Montana, Mon-tana, found that selection and line breeding over a period of 20 years increased the average level of many desirable charecteristics in individuals and specific lines of cattle. A 10-year comparison of steers at the station by a single line of inbred bulls stands out as an example ex-ample to which desirable characteristics charact-eristics can be improved. Four groups of steers started in the feedlot at weaning weights averaging 442 pounds gained an average of 1.99 pounds daily. Ten years later another group of steers from the same inbred line averaged averag-ed 456 pounds at weaning, and gained 2.48 pounds daily. Pounds of grain for each 100 ponds of gain increased slightly, from 586 to 593 in the ten-year period. But this is chargeable to the usual reduced re-duced feed efficiency in cattle as fattening increases, USDA experts note. Marven J. Ogden Ass't.
