Wade has lived in the County many years and is fa m ilia r with the weed and brush control problems. He lias studied pest control methods ami is now a licensed chemical applicator. One phase of tlie prog ran w ill lie the control of weeds and brush on county ro.tds. Cost a c c o u n tin g has shown that chemical control of weeds and brush is by fa r the most econ omical method of control. P rac tic a lly all road departments In this method. Many precautions are being taken to prevent d rift of ehm- icals to adjacentpropertx and to prevent unsightly dead brush along the roads, says Oeste . A wind gau/e is used a id the chemicals are applied close to the -round. T a lle r brush w ill be removed during Hie summer by a crew of boys working un der tfe Neighborhood Y o u th Corps. Chemicals used along c o jity roads are o ily effective again st ’ road-leaf plants amt the • :ass* s ill continut to iow . The goal is to have the road sides established in grass sod to prevent erosion and the gro wth of undesirable plants so only a m->intenance program will I * needed. Wade aid tlie equipment w ill also be available for custom weed spraying on private prop erty in the Coanty. Common weeds n e e d in g control are gorse, Canada th istle , tansy ragwort, polso.i oak, b l a c k b e rrie s, etc. New chemicals such as Tordon are extrem ely effective against many of these weeds, according to Oester. Landowners wanting weeds controlled can contact Wade or the extension office in Gold Beach. AT GRADUATION M r. and M rs.
