NITROGEN INCREASES OATS AND RYE YIELDS
When farmers purchase their nitrogen fertilizer supplies this spring for top dressing needs, the rye and oats crops will benefit by being included in the plans. Excessive winter rains have depleted many soils of nitrogen, Purdue University agronomists remind farmers. r
The response of oats ‘to nitrogen is about the same as that of wheat, For every three pounds of nitrogen applied per ‘acre, the inceased oat yield will be approximately one bushel. Profitable results can be expected from nitrogen applications on oats particularly if the oats were seeded on just average ground and on light colored soils following soybeans. Generally

When most people say they’d “go as far as the moon” to please you, they’re talking in figures of speech. When we say it, we really mean it. The figures we use are right off the speedometers of our company cars and company trucks, Last year these 463 Indiana & Michigan vehicles traveled 5,556,777 miles . . . in building and maintaining lines, connecting new customers, answering hurry calls when something needed fixing, on all sorts of trips to help homemakers, farmers, and businessmen get the most out of their electric service. This distance they traveled is equal to eleven trips to the moon (and back!) and enough additional mileage to circle the earth 12 times at the equator. We know that our cars and trucks den’t look like interplanet space ships when you see them on the streets. They’re business-like, work-a-day vehicles that you take pretty much for granted. But in running up their astronomical mileage on routine and emergency, trips, they are one of many reasons why you can take your electric service so much for granted, too. = | W;-
rates of over 30 pounds of ele[mental nitrogen are not porfitable, R. R. Mulvey, agronomist, points out. _ ; The nitrogen materials can be broadcast prior to working up the seed bed, drilled with the seed in the form of mixed ferttilizer such as an 8-8-8 or top dressed on the oats after seeding if it is done within a ten-day period. - Mulvey said that most of the rye grown in this state is produced on sandy soil. Such soils are short of nitrogen and top dressing with nitrogen in the spring should be a regular practice for both wheat and rye regardless of previous conditions,l Mulvey advises.

KILL WOODY PLANTS BY CHEMICAL SPRAY
’ The job of getting rid of “weedy shrubs” can be scheduled as soon ‘as the growing season is well underway and temperatures and moisture conditions are favorable to rapid growth. : Oliver C. Lee, weed specialist at Purdue University, reports the weed killer 2,4-5-T which has the long-winded name Trichorophenozyacetic acid is more effective than 2,4-D for the eradication ofl many woody plants, It will kill osage orange, blackberry and raspberry briars and several hardwood species that are not affected by 2,4-D. Some species as willows, wild grape and other soft woods are killed with 2,4-D.

Mr. Lee said that when spray,‘ing areas infected with mixed species, commercial preparations Fcontaining both 2,4-D and 2,4-5-T ‘have proved to be satisfactory. Since 2,4-5-T is more expensive than 2,4-D, use of the mixture: of the two will reduce spraying costs. When spraying woody plants tolerant to 2,4-D, as osage orange, briars and hardwood sprouts, 2,4-5-T alone should be‘ used. :
Recommendations for use of concentrated material (those containing from three to four Ibs. of acid per gallon) are to dilute

one quart of the material in 25 to 30 gallons of water, Sufficient spray should be applied to moisten all vegetation. The spray is applied with sufficient pressure to assure adequate coverage and the amount per acre will depend ‘upon the density, of the growth. One application may not produce a perfect kill so that surviving vegetation will then need to be resprayed. Delaying respraying until the following year is reecommended.
