A particularly hard-h- it area was the central and southern portion of the state, where mourning doves and smaller birds headed for the highway, apparently to keep out of the deep snow blanketing the area. Hundreds were hit by motorists who couldnt avoid them. This golden hybrid tea won 1975 honors OREGOLD because of its beauty and quality. It is the first deep yellow hybrid tea award winner in 13 years. 0 h AWARD WINNING ROSES This rose, the Arizona, was named the gla diflora award winner by the Rose Society. It is golden copper in color with an intense tea fragrance. All-Americ- an r roses named With the Spring planting season just about upon us, it is time to look over the new choices that are appearing cm the rose market. There are always plenty of them Actually there is no reason to let the gorgeously colored presentations of the rose catalogs or the blandishments of the rose sales yard salesmen complicate our choice when all we need to do is look for the 'rose plants bearing the green and white Rose Selections award win' ter tag. For ROSE PARADE A true floribunda in growth and flower. This 1975 award winner has clusters of richly fragrant, coral pink blooms, highlighted with shades of pink. 36 years now, AARS, which neither buys, sells nor produces roses, has tested roses with extreme care and examonly after a two-ye- ar ination period, during which four separate scorings are submitted cm each rose entered into its trials, does it 'move & determine which of the rose candidates, if any, deserve the much sought after AARS award. AARS was organized in for the specific purpose of aiding people confused in trying to choose the best roses from the many offered each year. It is readily 1938 acknowledged throughout the worid that the AARS testing program Is the finest and most reliable in existence. From the detailed reports sent in by its 23 official test gardens scattered through- out the United States, AARS has chosen to confer its top honors for 1975 on three very fine new roses a hybrid tea, Oregold (Plant Patent No. 3415); a grandiflora, Rose Parade (Plant Patent No. 3065); and a floribunda, Arizona (Plant Patent Applied For). A witness said, As soon as the birds were hit, meadowlarks would grab them up; and they, in turn, were hit and grabbed up by magpies and crows. It wasn't a very pretty sight. Meadowlarks dont usually feed on birds, but hunger apparently drove them to take advantage of the ill fate of the other birds. The combination of cold weather and lack of feed also sealed the fate erf other birds not sitting on the highway. Dali Winn, Division erf Wildlife Resources southern regional law enforcement and education officer counted 130 dead on a rocky outcropping off the road. STORAGE SHEDS Dead doves have also been repented in Daggett County in northeastern Utah, and numerous small passerines died in Box Elder County in northern Utah. Don Paul, ' Division information specialist, found the small birds in pot holes in the cliff faces in that area frozen with their heads tucked under their wings. Most common in that area were chipping sparrows and gray flycatchers. Several hundred bamswal-low- s died in barns, garages' and other outbuildings on Division waterfowl management areas. .
