| Think first of summer, annual weeds, both grassy and broadleaved, such as crabgrass, goosegrass, black medic, common knotweed and spotted spurge. |
| Melt some hog's lard, add as much clivers or goosegrass as the lard will moisten, and boil them together over a slow fire. |

| All summer we fight Bermuda grass, nut grass, crabgrass, goosegrass, Dallis grass, spurge, pigweed and others. |

| Bleached skeins of last year's goosegrass conceal a ditch and mark out a hedge. |
