H E Wood of the Department of Agriculture says treatment with 2 4 D or MCP depends on crop type with 2 4 D for wheat and barley, MCP for oats flax and legumes, and TCA for green foxtails in flax and field peas. 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.
