He advises hoeing tops, raking and burning, deep plowing to reach roots, then cultivating every four days with a harrow or cultivator, twice for two weeks, and spreading the cut material in a hog lot or similar place. Six weeks of faithful cultivation should remove the weed if rainfall is not excessive.
