372. On spring plowed plots I where the fall and spring applied chemical was plowed dow, the control ofan.n.ual species was poor. Although not significant, the spring plowed plots yielded somewhat higher than the fall plowed plots, except t.reat.mentB 8, 14 and 15. On each of these plots, Quackgrass control was good. In three treatments (2, :3 and 14), fall plowed and not cultivated yielded higher than cultivated. In only two treatments (4 and 9) did fall plowed and cultivated out yield spring plowed and cultivated. In six treatIilents out of 15, the fall plowed and not cultivated plots yielded higher than the spring plowed not cultivated. Again, Quackgrass control was good on these treatments, resulting in less competition to the corn. Also, the yield differences are greater between cultivated and not cultivated on the spring plowed plots than on the fall plowed. This is the result of increased competition due to annual borad-leaved weeds and annual grasses. Cultivation was most beneficial on those plots where poor chemical control was obtained. Based on stand counts and yields ot silage .. the control ot Quackgrass on spring plowed plots was superior to fall plowed. Thus, in the combination ottall and spring treatments, the tall plOWing will result, in better annual broad-leaved weed and annual grass control but the spring plowing will result in better Quackgrass control.

The rapid spread of bedstraw can be attributed in a large part to the use of European sources of birdstoot trefoil seed and in more recent years to the purchase of poorly cleaned local seed supplies. EXPERIMENTAL METHODANDPROCEDURE: In the spring end summer of 1959, four separate areas of birdsfoot trefoil, uniformly infested with bedstraw, were treated with two formulations of 2,4,5-TP. The chemicals used, rates per acre and dates of treatment are shown in Table 1. The March, April and May treatments were on first growth bedstraw and birdsfoot trefoil. The August treatments were on regrowth after first cutting. The regrowth on the bedstraw was :3 to 4 inches tall when the August treatments were applied. RESULTSANDDISCUSSION: The control of bedstraw vas excellent on the first three dates of treatment as shown by the stand counts made August 19, 1959, Table 1. The growth of bedstraw at time of treatment ranged from barely visible shoot emergence from the crowns on March 24 to plants 12 to 18 inches tall on May 12. Due to the very poor stands of bir4sfoot trefoil on the plots, accurate evaluation of injury was not possible. However, the treatments applied on March 24 and April 18 did not severely injure the plants present. Compared to the check, there was no reduction in birds foot trefoil stand. ,..
