Show SEPTEMBER 20, 1996 ‘UtahState UNIVERSITY Beaver County Monitor SENSO -UNAPPROVED MINUTES- BEAVER COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD IS IT TOO LATE TO PLANT GRASS? — Answer by: Bill Varga, Utah State University Extension horticulturist September is one of the best times to sow lawn seed. The more moderate temperatures at this time of year encourage even germination because it is easier to prevent the seedbed from drying out. Consider these tips for planting. * Select a good Kentucky Bluegrass blend. Many books and pamphlets recommend Lovin or ‘Berands grass, but these are warm season grasses not suitable for conditioris along the Wasatch Front. Baron, Glade, Fylking, Nuggett, Vita and Windsor are some of the high quality, fine-textured pe that maké a good blend. *.A mix may be ae of several grass types. A blend is composed of varieties of the same grass, To determine the type of grasses in your mixture, check the package for seed mixture analysis. The best grasses are listed under the sb-heading "Fine-textured Types.” To the right of each type is the percentage of germination you can expect. The germination should be 85 or above. Other sub-headings like "Course Kinds" and other ingredients should read 0.00%. No noxious weeds should be present in the mix, *.Fescues and rye grasses are useful in specific situations. For instance, if you are planting i in heavy shade or are anticipating extra heavy traffic in one area, these grasses ae be included in your mix. Consult your auyserytian As atule, clover isi not desirable. It tends to take over the grass and will attract bees and become more of a pest than a help.

Tough spot for a grass roots politician. Sanders conceded that, although the President is well within his rights....simply following in the footsteps of his predecessors, the whole thing has been handled poorly, and it is unforgivable that the Utah residents and delegation had no real input in the decision. In order for the action to again Sanders’ stamp of approval, he said water rights, mineral rights, and value for school trust lands will have to be dealt with fairly. To his credit, while other congressional candidates were reportedly basking in limelight on the south rim, Sanders was listening to the concerns of folks in rural Utah. _ Sanders Shuttle Express ‘96 is an example of grass roots politics and campaigning the hard way. A $3000 vinyl wrap has tured the family van into an Sanders’ key, and only, advertising mechanism. He’s not accepting special interest contributions, and won’t have the luxury of television and radio. He hopes, instead, that his stance against special interest influence and willingness to knock on doors and listen to locals will earn him a right to be hear. “It’s a simple message. Our quality of life is a value, and we must preserve and protect it as we do any of our values.” Editor's note: The Monitor will provide equal space for opposing candidates who just happen to drop in for a visit during the campaign season.
