Ford PHONE 123W CLINTON Weed of the Week WILD MUSTARD ROBBER OF FERTILITY The continued use of weed free seed and the exercise of better cultural practices with an assist from the use of 2-4-D, will eradi- cate and control Wild Mustard reports the Crops Branch of the Ontario Department of Agricul- ture, Wild Mustard, sometimes called Herrick or Charlock, is one of the worst weeds in Ontario. It is to be found everywhere. Wild Must- ard (Brassica Arvensis) is an an- nual weed, producing up to 15,000 seeds each year. Its bright yellow flowers and a many branched stalk make it easy to distinguish, It is a land robber, taking more moisture and fertility from the soil than most other weeds. It de- creases grain yields and will live in the soil for years, or until it is brought to the surface by cultiva- tion. It is considered as a prim- ary noxious by our seed laws, and will not be found in the better grades of seed. Special pre -season cultivation and good after -harvest cultural practices, will reduce the numbers of seeds found in the soil by encouraging germination. In 2-4-D we have a potent chem- ical to eradicate this pest. One acre of Mustard plants carrying 2,000 to 3,000 pounds of living green plant material can be killed by only four ounces of 2-4-D, ;and at earlier stages and in good con- ditions even two ounces will de- stroy this weed. The increased yields foo- our grain crops makes it economical to try any or all of these methods to control Mustard.

This low percentage of increase, too, is shown in the face of an increase in the index figure for materials of 94.7% and of Massey -Harris hourly rates of pay of 173.9% as can be seen by referring to the chart shown above. Also, the indexes show that while farm implements have only increased 66.9% there has been an increase in the price of farm products of 82.6% and the scarcity of farm labour has caused farm wage rates to increase by 177.6%. Farmers depend upon mechanization to offset the scarcity and high cost of labour and the indexes show that prices, of such equipment have been maintained at a comparatively low level of increase. Farm equipment with its time and labour saving advantages offers exceptional value for the money. *Dominion Bureau of Statistics Wholesale Price and Farm Wage Bate indexes.
