NOTES
EXTENSION SERVICE
LEW E. HANKS
It’s getting time to start spray
ing both for weeds and insect
pests. Most farmers received a
letter a short time ago showing
how to measure the output on. a
spray rig. If you didn’t receive
one, basically it is this- The
number of gallons used going
660 feet multiplied by 66 and
divided by the boom coverage in
feet equals number of gallons
sprayed per acre. Mix your spray
accordingly. As to spray s—
chlorodane or aldrin will get
cutworms oj- root maggots.
On weeds, Premerge is best
for potatoes. It should be applied
before the weeds get very big.
If the potatoes are breaking
ground, it will burn the leaves
some. Premerge or Dow select
ive can also be used for oats and
peas or grain. This will control
chickweed and lambsquarter but
not grasses. Some control of
quack grass in potatoes can be
secured by using Dalapon.
2-4-D will control weeds in
lawns. MH 40 will keep your
lawn from growing too fast. Most
sprays work best when the
ground is damp. Spray equip- ■
ment should be cleaned thor
oughly after using. 2-4-D is es
pecially bad. A trace of this
chemical in a spray can ruin
most of a garden. Pamphlets on
spray use are available at the
Extension office. I’d rather spray
than hoe any old day—I sure -
hope it rains.
