E. Fallis, Fieldman for the Crops Branch of the Ontario Department of Agricul- ture. This week is a perennial, with a long, slender tap root. In its early stages, it is rather inconspicuous, since it is hidden by tall growing grasses. However, once it comes into flower, the upright stem from 1 to 3 feet high with its narrow pointed leaves and yellow or purple flowers become quite prominent. When in bloom, the origin of its common name becomes obvious, for the flower is in the shape of a goat's beard. The Seed- head resembles an over-grown dan- delion, being only slightly smaller than a baseball. Goat's Beard is easily Controlled with 2, 4-0, applied at the rate of one pound of acid per acre, provided the spray is applied before the plant rea- ches the budding stage. One applica- tion at this stage usually around 'fay 24th will prevent the flower coming into bloom and forming seed. How- ever, more than one 'application is usually necessary to kill the root of this perennial. Unfortunately, the plant is frequently not recognized until it comes into bloom, and once it has reached this stage some other method of control is required, if seed production is to be prevented. ediDa, attire dye Once the Goat's Beard is in bloom the only effective chemical control . can be obtained through the use of a contact weed killer such as those with a sodium chlorate base, ammonium sulfamate, or pentachlorophenal. Such weed killers act rapidly and will pre- vent seed formation, An alternative method is to mow the plants when in bloom, to prevent seed formation. This will usually have to be done twice in a season as the plant makes a rapid comeback pro- ducing a second set of flowers within a few weeks of the first mowing. The best time for the first cutting is when a majority of the plants are in bloom, usually about the middle of June, with the second cutting taking place when the plants are again blooming. ing with Mr. and Mrs. Win, Govier, of Blyth.
