Made Tuesday On West Range Millard County Weed Committee sponsored a tour Tuesday of the western ranges to observe haloget-ton- , the new weed appearing there and to observe its growth habits. Forty men made the trip, in-cluding C. Wayne Cook, president of the Utah Section of the Amer-ican Society of Range Manage ment, from the USAC, Ben' Mark-ha-from the Bureau of Land Management, Pratt Allred, district supervisor, district 3 and 10, BLM, Lowell Wood, supervisor of Fish Lake National Forest, Ken Bowers, Forest Rangers, the weed comittee county commissioners, Golden H. Black, and LaVar Owens, county agents, Rodney G. Richenbach and Lee Rogers, and livestock men and farmers. The first stop was 15 miles west of Hinckley on Highway 6, where halogeton was flourishing in strips on each side of the road for a quarter of a mile. It was plainly seen that it had filled in along the areas where the snow plow had made trails during the storms of two winters ago. Shad-scal- e was alongside. Halogeton, it was pointed out, grows where ground is . abused, either by g or on the trails. It. is a cousin of the Rus-sian thistle and smother weed. It is a slow and late spring grow-er, and an an early spring growth can' choke it out. Although pois-onous to cattle and sheep, it is not proved that the weed has caused any losses as yet to stock on the range. It has been at Cowboy Pass since 1944, and in the state since 1935. Prof. Cook told the group, "We must necessarily learn to live with it, using sound range practices and management. If we will ad-here to a few simple management rules there is no reason to believe that the livestock industry will be materially affected by halogeton infection." Mr. and Mrs. Glen Skeem and daughter, Evelyn, spent Saturday in Provo. Elder Glen Gardner was speak-er in sacrament meeting Sunday. Mrs. Norma Hannifin and daugh-ter, Cherie, gave a vocal solo and an instrumental number.
