League advises you to let the
police and a neighbour know
that you'll be away. Cancel
all deliveries - mail,
newspapers, milk, etc. - until
your return, and ask a
neighbour to gather up any

your front door. A wise in-
vestment is an automatic

Simon De Witt of the Dublin
area knows it works. Last
year he had a field of wheat
and a -terrific stand of bind-
weed. The bindweed didn't
hurt his wheat much, but he
was afraid of what it would
do to the white beans this
year. So Simon wanted to
know what to do.
I told him to cut the, wheat
and then wait for the bind-
weed to come back into
bloom. Then spray with
either Kilmor or Dicamba.
Simon wanted to know which
was the best.
I told him that the resear-
chers were a bit divided on
the issue, but they collective-
ly thought Kilmor would do a
better job. He asked me

what 1 thought ant sig-
geed, °Why don't yon run

the field with glittmattandthe
other half of the field with.
Dicamba."
He Sprayed Dieamba at
one gallon per acre and
Kilmor at one ,gallon per 10
acres.
I said the main thing was
to wait as long as possible in-
to September before ap ay
ing. He had to wait lute the
bindweed was in hate bud or
early bloom. On the other
hand, if he waited too late
and had an early killing
frost, there would not be
enoughgood weather to let
the plants translocate the
herbicide to the roots.
Well, last year that first
two weeks of September,
Simon got quite anxious. He
would call the office and ask
"Is it ready to spray?" I
would ask him if - the bind-
weed was in bloom. He
would say no and then worry
some more. Three or four
days later he would call
again - same conversation.
Finally, about September 15,
the bindweed came back into
bloom and he sprayed.
Last week (August 11) 1
walked Simon's bean field,
comparing the two
treatments. He has at least
90 percent control of ` the
bindweed - possibly 95, per-
cent control. And there was
no difference between the
side sprayed with Kilmor
versus the side sprayed with
Dicamba.
This year Simon has
another field. Another bind-
weed problem, but with a dif-
ferent slant. This year he,
sowed red clover with the
nitrogen on his wheat.
The red clover is about two
to four inches high now. The
bindweed is quite general
throughout the field. Simon
is concerned that when he
sprays the bindweed, he will
also kill the red clover. I
tried to lessen Simon's con-
cern by telling him that if
this September is the same
as last year, - his bindweed
will bloom , again about
September 15. That will give
his red clover a good six
weeks of growth after
harvesting the wheat. This
should give him 80 to 90 per-
cent benefit of his red clover.
True, he will not get the' full
benefit of his red clover, but
he will certainly get enough
value to pay for his seed.
Also, the bindweed can be
a nuisance next year in the
beans, so he has no choice.
He has to spray it this
September:
Twitch grass
getting worse
You know, this twitch
grass problem is worse now
in Perth and ,Huron counties
than when I came here nine
years ago. I don't want to
take all the credit for that,
• but it is a problem. I am now
convinced that you can make
twithh grow better by apply-
ing one pound' of Atrazine
per acre. And many of you
are doing that. Putting on an
annual grass killer plus a bit
of Atrazine. `This low rat of
Atrazine merely gets rid ,of
the annual weeds and gives
the twitch a better place to
grow. I am convinced that
Atrazine, used this way,
makes the twitch grow bet-
ter.
• So what do you do about it?
Any fields that are going to
be sown to corn next year
should have Atrazine applied
this fall. If it is a sod or
cereal field this year, you
can put that 2.2 kg. per ha. of
actual Atrazine on any time.
If you are applying it while
the twitch is actively grow-
ing, then use corn oil. Not
those surfactants or soaps or
corn oil concentrates, but the
corn oil in the 45 gallon
drum. By using oil this fall,
you burn off that top growth
and hasten the route of
Atrazine to the twitch roots.
If you are applying this .
Atrazine later this fall - say
October - there is no point of
putting oil with it. You are
merely applying the
Atrazine to the surface and
plowing that down. That
Atrazine will be right where
those twitch grass roots are.
Those roots will grow right
into the Atrazine as soon as
they start to grow next, spr-
ing. In fact there is no reason
why you couldn't mount the
sprayer onto the tractor and
spray as you plow. Slow
down for the bad areas, and
where there is no twitch turn
the sprayer off.
If you aren't growing corn
nett year on those fields in-
fested with twitch, you ran
