suited in a taking of Plaintiff's
property interest in the Leased
Premises in the nature of an ease-
ment for drainage and for the im-
potmdment and storage of surface
water."
Earlier in the "Petition For In-
verse Condemnation" the document
gave the location of the now closed
"Ctflvcrt," or whistle.
The suit further alleges Wells has,
to afid flooding of his business,
been forced to install and operate,
at significant expense, a pump.
"Due to the heavy saturation
of water, Plaintiff's septic tanks
mtLSt be pumped daily in order for
the business' restrooms to remain
operable and conform to the laws of
Oklahoma.
"Large amounts of standing water
caused by Defendants acts has
damaged the driveway and parking
lot of Plaintiff's business. In
addition, Defendant's actions have
resulted in the pooling of water
causing the closing of a portion of
Highway 33. Plaintiff's business is
now and has been closed due to
flooding caused by the pooling of
surface water which reached levels
in excess of one foot inside the
building and water remains standing
in the building on the date of filing
this Petition."

The petition also states:
"Plaintiff has made written de-
mand upon Defendant to open the
Culvert to avoid the taking and dam-
aging of Plaintiff's private property.
Defendant has refused to do so and
has entered into an agreed journal
entry of judgment that Defendant
will never open the Culvert. Defen-
dant has also failed, refused and ne-
glected to commence condemnation
proceedings to assess and pay just
compensation to Plaintiff who has
not otherwise been compensated.
"Plaintiff has therefore been
compelled to bring this claim for
inverse condemnation pursuant to
27 O.S. sec. 12 in order to obtain
compensation for the taking and
damaging of its property, along with
reimbursement for its reasonable
costs, disbursements and expenses
incurred, including appraisal fees,
engineering fees and reasonable
fees."
Wells said he's doing this, not
only to keep Whistle Stop No.

Perkins.

Weeds will accompany any alfalfa
planted in a field this spring so
herbicide use is important.
A preplant-incorporated herbi-
cide needs to be applied when plant-
ing any alfalfa in the spring. Warm-
season grasses, such as crabgrass,
and broadleaf weeds, such as pig-
weed, are very competitive with
spring-planted alfalfa.
If weeds aren't controlled as they
germinate, the alfalfa stand can be
lost. Summer weeds compete for
moisture with the entire growing
season. OSU research has shown
as few as two pigweed plants per
square foot can cause more than
60 percent reduction in the alfalfa
forage production.
Two preplant herbicides, Balan

and Eptam,-cunently are labeled for
alfalfa. Balan may be a better choice
because Eptam is weak on pigweed
control. Balan does a good job
against both grasses and broadleaf
weeds. However, this be the
last year Balan will be available on
alfalfa. DowElanco has requested
that EPA drop alfalfa and clovers
from the Balan EC label since the
company doesn't want to go through
the expensive relabeling process.
Thoroughly incorporating either
herbicide into the top two to
three inches of soil immediately
is important for effective weed
control.
Postemergence control of weeks
in spring-planted alfalfa is difficult.
Poast Plus is available for control
of crabgrass and other grasses, but
it won't control broadleaf weeds.
Butyrac is effective on broadleaf
weeks, but not grasses. If there
are both grass and broadleaf week
problems, both Poast Plus and
Butyrac will need to be applied.
