Al2—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, Novambar 19,1953 Now is the Time (Continued from Page A 10) ferent Task Force Committees are functioning efficiently and saving many valuable hours and days...time is precious. I see many farmers and industry support people lending a hand where needed. The State and Federal people are doing an excellent Job; and they appreciate the excellent cooperation of the local people. Don’t relax now, there is much more that needs to be ac complished. Keep up the good work. To Knock Oat Those Winter Alfalfa Weeds Winter weeds in our alfalfa fields are every bit as predictable as summer weeds are in corn and soybeans, reminds Arnold G. Lueck, Extension Agent in Agronomy. Colder weather is here; hay fields are dormant. We now have a choice to use more different herbicides, depending largely on the kinds of weeds present that need to be knocked out. The most commonly found winter annuals in alfalfa at this time include duckweed and the four mustard weeds sheperdspurse, pep perweed, pennycress and yellow rocket. Also, expect to see seedlings of other weeds plus some old, tough perennials, too. It pays to know your weeds present before selecting the herbicide. Look at our Extension Agronomy Guide and READ THE LABEL on the container or package. There are directions and limitations to get the job done right...in the next six weeks. PAUL B. Lancaster Co.

REBERT RDI2 Litt lest own, PA 717-359-5863 SEE THE Great Plains DRILL Seeding Wheat In Corn Stalks * «Wf i , Only Great Plains has a No-Till Drill that gives you un matched penetration, accuracy, and versatility. Here's why A unique pivot between the coulter unit and the drill allows each disk opener to track exactly in the slot cut by the coulter in front —even while the unit is rounding a curve Excellent penetration is also achieved, thanks to a heavy duty framework, calcium-fillable transport tires, and a special weight transfer design which applies some of the weight of the drill itself to the coulters Should additional weight be needed, specially designed weight brackets are available which accept most tractor suitcase-style weights In all up to 400 lbs of weight per coulter is possible ensuring penetration even in the toughest ground Finally, all Combination Drill Hitches feature a quick hitch for attaching easily to 3-point drills So you have the flexibility to no-till some acreage, then switch back to a conventional seeding method as conditions vary C.B.
