Fight against 'Shatter Cane' Planned LINCOLN A co-operative pro gram aimed at finding ways of controlling shatter cane a pesky, annual weed in Nebras ka, wa; outlined and agreed up on at a special meeting here Saturday More than 60 persons, includ ing fanners, irrigation district represen.atlves, state and fed eral agencies and chemical com pany representatives, attended the meeting on shatter cane, which is a problem in the south eastern two-fifths of the slate. The weed caused losses as high as $63. U8 per acre through reduc tion cf corn yields in some south central Nebraska fields last year. The meeting grew out of a di cusslon last month at Norfolk when representatives of the Bostwick and Frenchman-Cambridge Irrigation Districts called upon the University of Nebras ka to initiate steps to find a sat isfactory means of controlling shatter cane. Although a definite research and educational program design ed to control shatter cane will be pushed in 1962, a University of ficial stressed that the shatter cane problem will not be solved overnight because of its peculiar characteristics of dormancy and longevity.

Mrs. Upton served refresh ments of date cake, ice cream and coffee. the Job done. We can't expect miracles." The chairman of the Univer sity's Department of Agronomy taid "a long, well-planned pro gram Involving joint efforts of every person involved, through education and research, can help us master this problem." The 1962 program will Include: Field tests in co-operation with farmers and various other groups involvong use of the tlll plant system of corn production alone; till-plant system with an application of Eptam at lay-by time on corn; and conventional tillage w,th applications of Ep tam 10 to 14 days prior to plant ing corn. Laboratory studies at the College of Agriculture on the seed of shatter cane as well as screening of various chemicals which might control the weed. Representatives of the Bost wick and Frenchman-Cambridge Irriga-District, as well as farm er: over South Central Nebraska, pledged support in the form of land and equipment to carry out the field tests. It was agreed that the program would be set up, with arrangements with in dividual farmers to be coordi nated by county Extension agents. State Senator Kenneth Bowen of Red Cloud said he recognized that shatter cane is a major problem and that "it will be with us for some time." John Furrer, University Ex tension agronomist, reported re sults of a recent survey of county agents which indicated that 90,C0 acres of corn and 30,000 acres of sorghum were infested with shatter cane this year, primarily in South Central and southeastern Nebraska. Small acreages of soybeans and sugar beets al:o were infested. Delbert E. Lane, University Extension agricultural engineer, said that the till-plant system of corn and sorghum production may be one way of controlling shatter cane by cultural means. Under this system, the crop is planted in the old row. Surplus soil, along with weed seeds and crcp residues from the old ridge, Is moved to the center where any resulting weed3 can be controlled easily by cultivation. Since the soil is not plowed, seeds of shatter cane and other weeds are kept near the surface where they may be controlled more readily. Dr. Orvin Bunvide, assistant orofessor of agronomy ,at the University, said he has initiated studies on the dormancy of shatter cane seeds. Samples were collected from the Republican River valley and elsewhere in 1961. Buried seed studies are be ing set up in Lincoln, North Platte, and Alliance. Seed via bility studies under different :torage conditions and conditions 3H5E3 Ola CALL Edwin T. McHugh, Attorney .Murdock, Nebraska necessary for germination also are being initiated. In addition, Dr. Burnside plans to screen various pre-emergence chemicals on the control of shatter cane. Herbert Day, technical sales manager, Stauffer Chemical Co., Omaha, reported excellent control of shatter cane With ap plications of the chemical Eptam in 12 trials conducted in the Blooming ton, Bartley, Cam bridge and Hastings areaa this year. Three pounds of the chemical were applied to a pre pared seedbed and Immediately dLced under. Applications were made one to 14 days prior to corn planting. He reported that farmers in Illinois and Indiana have used Eplam for cane control. They found that some corn injury may occur, but it will be less than the competition from cane. Because of the cost of $10.50 per acre for a broadca-t treatment and chances of injury, this method of chemical application is just ified only on severely-intesied fields. Furrer said that Eptam cannot be used on sorghum as it will kill the sorghum plant just as it does the shatter cane plant. Clothing Construction Workshop By MRS. KAY LEIDING Extension Home Agent How about having a clothing construction workshop in your living room this winter? The Extension Clothing Spe cialists, Gerda Peterson and Anna Maire Kreifels are starting a television series this week", "Clothes Become You".

The succeeding weeks will include information on equipment selection, sewing machine satisfaction and ad justment, fabr.c and pattern selection, construction, fitting and accessorizing. The programs are outlined so that it will be possible to make a shirt-waist dress step-by-step with the specialists each week. A calendar outlining each of thee programs Is being sent to 4-H Clothing leaders and Home Extension Club Presidents. If you will not receive an outline through one of these mailing lists please drop me a card and I'll be happy to forward a sched le to you.
