Brazilian iutKirctjUi nunicu lurccu Migratory Fowl, Now Grave Menace At Tahkenitch And Siltcoos Lakes A weed planted many years ago as food for migratory fowl is raising hob with the economic and recreational value of Siltcoos and Tahkenitch Lakes in Western Douglas County.

Movie Funds Will Aid Juvenile Angling Plan A two-day showing ot a techni color movie o i wildlife will start tonight at the Junior High School Auili'urium at 8 p.m. Sponsored by the Junior Cham ber of Commerce, the movie en titled "Land of the Golden Twi light," is being presented to pro vide funds for establishment ot a juvenile fishing area on Deer Creek.

The result, Hill said, Is an eco nomic loss to dairy farmers who must send milk by boats to mar kets and to loggers who use the lakes to transport logs, and it also spoils the recreation on the lakes. Hill and News-Review Editor Charles V. Stanton are meeting to day at Reedsport wiih representa tives of the affected area to try to work out i solution. But it's a tough problem, Hill said. About three years ago the mat ter was put in the hands of re searchers at Oregon , State Col lege. They tried to find something that would get rid of the weed. And they did. But the substance that will kill the weed will also kill other vegetation. Other solu tions were economically unfeas ible. California Also Troubled California also had trouble with the weed, which grows in shallow water at the edges of lakes. In an attempt to solve the problem, the Californians im ported the nutria, a South Amer ican brand of muskrat which eats the duckweed. The animals ate the weed all right and multiplied. . The cure became worse than the malady, Hill said, and now Cali fornia authorities are also trying to get rid of the nutria. Judge Hill, who studied the sub ject while a member of the state legislature and later while on the Gtate Game Commission, ex plained the weed did not become a problem in Douglas County until about 8 or 10 years ago. It was then loggers began to use the lakes to transport their logs to markets. They dragged logs over weeds, broke them off and spread the pieces wherever they went. Duckweed, a jointed plant that germinates at each joint, spread rapidly. Danger of the weed spreading to other lakes also exists, according to Judge Hill. Fishermen, for ex ample, taking boats to the two af fected lakes may inadvertently bring back bits of duckweed when they return. Then, if they use the boats at other lakes, the weed y.ny get other starts. -The problem is believed to exist at other lakes, but Judge Hill has no definite information on this. Affects Lakes Only The weed apparently affects lakes only. There is no evidence of it bothering running water and it has not been found in the Ump qua or Smith Rivers to any con sequence, Judge Hill said. There is also an American va riety of the weed, but it's not as bothersome as the Brazilian type. One of the solutions offered was chopping the weed of some three or four feet below the surface. But as yet, no means have been pro vided to pick the weed out of the water. Judge Hill said the situation has become "desperate" and added that means of weed control will be examined at Wednesday's meet ing at Reedsport.
