Manitoba farmers urged to spray weeds early in crops
Manitoba farmers should spray weeds early as five million of six million acres planted may carry weeds needing herbicides.

Early treatment reduces weed competition, boosts yields, and lowers chemical use. June meeting held at the church with N A Robertson assisting and weather noted.
