Blowball that infests crops and should be treated at least makes lawns look as though before sowing and oats had broken out in a golden rash One of the most common weeds in Ontario the Dandelion emi grated from Europe and today hears the stigma of being even a worst pest in Ontario than it was on its native heath From early spring to late fall practically all localities parks and lawns are overrun with this yellow flowered perennial which valiently resists efforts at The familiar fluff ball contain ing the ripened seeds appears about two weeks after the flower opens Drought does not affect the Dandelion as the long fleshy tap root can carry the plant through many drought spells thus giving it chance to grow and multiply when other lawn plants are in a weakened condi tion The young Dandelion makes an excellent salad or pot herb whose roots have been used in medi cines In fact around over a hundred thousand pounds were being imported into Canada and USA annually The milky juice sold for four to ten cents per pound Control of the Dandelion with the spud is very laborious and back breaking but Will give re sults if the root is cut off about four inches below the soil sur face Pieces broken off the main part of the root will grow and produce plants of their own Chemical control is very effec tive and considerably easier Spraying with 24D where no susceptible flowers or ornamen tals are near and where no bent grass is used in the lawn will give very gratifying results says the Crops Branch of the Ontario De partment of Agriculture The chemical can be bought at most drug hardware and department stores It should be applied at rates recommended by the manufac turer and before the Dandelion begin to flower Unless some ac tion is taken to clean up large areas new seeds will blow in and produce a new infestation Dan delions are profuse seeders and some say the motto of those wish ing a lawn free from them must and barley at least a week be fore sowing A
