Show 00 FARMERS FIGHT WEEVIL Brigham City, June 11. Attorney W E. Davis, returning from Willard yesterday, stated that the alfalfa W( -vll had made its appearance in the alfalfa fields in the southern part of Box Elder county. The pest has been known to exist here before, but up to the present time little damage has I been noticed in the fields. In Wll- j lard, however, a number of tanners were compelled to harvest their al- I falfa early in order to apply the rem- edy for killing, which is to thorough- ly harrow the field with a spring tooth harrow and follow that by drag-glng drag-glng thoroughlv with a brush drag. |
