A cultivator with bread Points should be usvil, which will cut uif the Sow 'Thistle or Twitch Grass below the surface of the ground and .lot break up the rootstocks the inneh. About the middle of June apply manure at the rate or about twenty tons per acre (twelve good loads.) Cultivate the manure in thoroughly and with a double mould board plough slightly ridge up the land, making the ridges about moti- f tyslx inches apart On the ridges ti0w pasture rape (Dwarf Essex var- iety) at the rate of about one and a half Hounds per dere. It la import- ant that the right amount of rape be gown for 1E too little is sown the etand will not be thick t'itouglt to smother the weeds; and if, on the tither, hand, too much is sowa the rape plants will be too crowded and now grow vigorously enough to keep ahead of the twitch grass or sot' finis 11e. Sow the rape when the laud is eutliciently 1110181 to secure quick germination of the seed. if the rap is slow .in starting the twitch grass or sow thistle may get a hold in the rows and thus necessitate hand out - Ovation'. Cultivate the rape every', week or ten days until it occupies all the ground andmakes further cultt ration impossible. If, when the rape la cut or pastured, any of the weeds remain, the field should be ridged up last thing in the fall and p111 11. with another hoed crop the following year. This has not been found ne- °essary when a good stand oic rape has been secured. e 11'a-ndil7Eittn _t Bladder Campion or f Cow Bell. BadiY Life -idea fields should be ploughed deeply in the fall and then oeltivated and -cross -cultivated with a broad -shared cultivator in order to break up and weaken the under- ground rootstocks. In the spring t this cultivation should be repeated C frequently enough to'prevent the d plant making any growth above f ground. until it is time to put in a Coked crop, which must be kept thin- i- oughly clean in order to be effective. 1 A, well oared for corn prop planted s tat hills ao tbat it can be cultivated . both ways has been found to give t excellent results. Special attention 11. must be given to hoeing out any t. bladder ca.mpion plants which may appear' in the corn crop and which a are not destroyed by cultivation. One e hall and one spring's thorough cul 11 ovation followed by a well eared for hoed crop has been found to destroy u practically all the bladder canspiot in a field except in exceptionally wet . seasons. Preventing Mustard Seeding in '• Cereal Crops. I Iron sulphate or Copperas can be successfully used to destroy mustard u In standing grain without Injury to the erop. A 20 per cent, solution '1 should be applied. This can be pre 1. pared by dissolving- 80 pounds of iron is uulphate .in forty gallons of water, iron sulphate is dissolved quite read- 1't ily in cold water. The solution should ii be strained through a cheese cloth, 11 As it is put into the splay pump tank. This will remove dirt and small' particles that are apt .to clog the nozzles Apply on a t 1111 clear day j, of i the first few plants in the fields show [lowers It is very important utt to ii1 ly oarly. If the plants are left too long the treatment is not .nearly- su effec- Ilve., If a heavy rain comes within twenty-four haute after the solution :a applied, it will be necessary to spray again. O1.
