Those bright blue flowers WhiCh
you may see along roadsides or
lanes, or in meadows about this
time of Year, are probably Chicory.
rf the flowers are about the size
of a fifty cent piece, attached close-
ly to an otherwise bare branch of
the nd,theleaves are a clust-
er close to the ground, the shape of
dandelion leaves, then the plant is
almost» sure to be Chicory. Chicory
is a perennial 'weed with a deep
tap root. This root» has been some-
tintes dried, ground and mixed
with coffee—but »that isn't always
what is wrong with the cOffee.
An average pleat »of Chicory will
produce about 3,000 seeds a year,
so it islikely to be around for
quite a ;while yet. It causes con-
siderable loss in meadows and long
term pastures, and detracts »from
the appearance el roadsides, since
the.stenis ate tall, brownish, »bushy,
'almost without upper leaves.
Chicory is not often troublesome
in the regular crop rotation. It
can be eliminated from long term
pastures »and meadows by :plowing
and cropping for a year or two.
In unworkable fielale,aerareadaidgea,
it car-ilk—Controlled by spraying
with 2-4-D at »a rate of about 16
ounces » of 2-4-D acid per acre.
Spraying gives best results early in
June, or any time up until the first
blossoms appear. Cutting is not
too successful, since regrowth is
rapid and new flowers and seeds
are formed in a few weeks,
