Fortunately, Halogeton is not liked by range stock and they will eat very little of the plant, if other feed is available. Some stockmen think that shortage of salt or minerals may cause stock to eat more of the Halogeton plant, but research has not proven this to date. When the mature plant is wet and soft in late fall it seems to be eaten in larger amounts than when green or in seed. Sheep seem to eat more of the weed, than do cattle, and this is why more sheep are poisoned by the weed. Experiments in the state of Nevada have proven that sheep can be killed by eating 12 pound of dry Halogeton but they can eat smaller amounts along with other things indefinitely and still get fat and lamb normally. Studies made in Utah, show that animals with plenty of native forage in their stomachs, can eat without any ill effects, twice the amount of Halogeton that would ordinarily Mrs. Mabel Hadfield new kill them.

Charled Ward in Ogden. fox Science Writer Halogeton Is a dry desert plant and It is not as a rule present in mountain ranges and irrigated valleys, although investigation has shown that the plant will invade dry wheat lands. It grows best on bare soils aich as railroad and highway s, sheep driveways and bedgrounds, abandoned dry farming lands, overgrazed ranees and along dry washes-I- t will appear sparse and small if natural range plants are growing vigorously on the range. If you wish to examine your range for Halogeton look first at the bare or disturbed pots on the acreage where other plants are not in abundance. Halogeton is extremely withstands drought resistent, high soil alkali (salt) and grows In almost any kind of soil Alkali (salt) desert winter ranges are it's natural home, although it anywhere probably can grow that Russian thistle thrives. Once Halogeton invades a range the entire area may be seeded in a short time by the n seeds thousands of the from plant. emanating However, there is no apparent possibility that the livestock industry of Box Elder and other counties, is facing destruction. The toxic substance in Halogeton is an Oxatate, a byproduct of plant growth. This material may make up to 5 per cent of the plant in late summer and early fall of the year. When snow and rain wet the plant in the fall and winter, the poison begins to wash out. At this time grazing of livestock becomes less dangerous, there- - w, n. . pi; I MH OIK RIVERSIDE y Tt A Bay W assures you a truck exactly right for your job !

You see a man isn't simply buying a motor car when he gets his first Cadillac. He is marking a milestone in heart-warmi- his life. For years, he has been saying to himself that, some day, he would step up to a Cadillac. All this time, he has seen it as something he wanted to to do for his family. . . and as a sort of personal reward for the effort and planning that have gone into his own work. And when you watch him slide over behind the wheel it's a thrill just to be there. He's proud and happy man as he turns the key in the ignition switch and hears the answer of the powerful engine. well, deep-throat- a ed , If you are one who has been looking forward to a Cadillac we think you would be well advised to come in and place your order now. There's a little delay these days before a Cadillac can be delivered and obviously, the sooner you place your order, the sooner you'll get your car. And when the great day comes, you'll know at once that it was well worth waiting for because all the things you've heard about a Cadillac are doubly true. It isn't just a motor car. It's a wonderful contribution to a wonderful way of life! r In answer to a question like that, Standard asks you to consider the broad situation. All prices should be kept as low as possible.
