It grows to a height of f,*t under favourable conditions, but, without attaining any such height, sue- wimou. ceeds in robbing the grain fields of a great deal of fertiliiv and moisture without apparontiv ox- citing suspicion or hostility on the part of the farmer. There is. no doubt, more loss caused by this weed than by any other, few fields of grain being found without it, and no seed being more commonly found in the screenings at eleva- tors. The plant is so well known that it is hardly necessary to de- scribe it, but all may not be as familiar with the appearance of the seed, which is round and flat- tened or lens-shaped, and is shiny black in colour when the outer covering is removed. Easily eradicated by shallow cultivation or the use of the harrow when plants are JUS above ground. Summer-fallow is effective when finished by late fall or spring cultivation. ^.
