Popis:	Injury to flax caused by 2,4-D and MCPA was decreased by increasing the volume of water applied with the herbicides. The crop recovered from initial injury and average yields were not reduced by any of the treatments. The only deleterious effect of the herbicides was a delay in maturity which increased the risk of damage from frost and unfavorable harvest weather. As the spray volume was decreased from 15 to 5 to 2.5 gal/ac delays in maturity were increased. Except in 1959 it was possible to apply an amine of 2,4-D or an ester of MCPA at 8 oz/ac without delaying maturity by using 15 gallons of spray per acre.
