Timing and chemicals for quackgrass and alfalfa control
Guidance notes apply 10 lbs per acre of Dalapon to kill quackgrass in late Oct to early Nov and plow within two weeks. Fall planting is not possible, but spring crops are. Do not spray if corn or beans will be planted. For yellow rocket in alfalfa, use MCP amine at 0.5 lb per acre in late Oct to early Nov.

A large chicken population has produced an unusually heavy supply of medium and small eggs this fall. Prices remain attractive, enabling homemakers to use eggs as main dishes in a wide variety of recipes from Eggs Benedict to scrambled eggs with bacon.
