Some tests were run last summer in California by the experiment stations and sugar companies with some very good results obtained, he reported. Extensive testing programs are being carried out by the sugar companiee and the state experiment station this year. Aocording to Mr. Tolman, spraying should prove especially good against wild oats, volunteer grain, and other weeds that germinate at lower temperatuilbs - than do - sugar - beets. Diesel oil has been used in most of the tests that were conducted in California at the rate of 40 to 50 gallons per acre.
