NGTON Oft-The mesquite
on some 70,000.000 acres
and in the Southwest is
ag the area's multi-mil-it
livestock industry.
..ardy mesquite, which thrives
u little as three inches ot
.turt or as much as JO, is no
ratr to the region, but its rapid
-.roachment in recent years is
ng increased alarm among
unman and agriculture depart-
jt specialists. ,

ates soil erosion.

: Agriculture experts say animals
id birds have nelped spread the
eds ot the woody weed, which
range, from two to 50 feet high
Ud la armed with spikes as long
a. four inches. Heavy grazing by
cattle also has reduced the com

- Mesquite serves some useful pur-
: poses as . fuel and fence posts
but Its value to the present day
rancher' is much less than it was
to his forefathers. .Electricity, na-
: tural gas, and petroleum fuels have
minimized its use as luel and mes-
a quite posts can't compete with
Pmore durable and straignter posts
is- ot juniper or steel.
. Mesquite also provides a pro
tective shelter for livestock in win
ter and shade during hot summer
days. , Its leaves serve as forage
during drought or periods of short
water supply, but a diet made up
only of beans and leaves from the
mesquite causes severe digestive
trouble.
' Control Methods
Because - its - disadvantages far
outweigh its advantages, the agri
culture department recently put
out a 72-pago, detailed study of
10 years of experimenting in mes
quite control in southern Arizona.
Chief recommendations are up
rooting the small shrub type and
applying sodium arsenite to larger
trees.
Pouring light -petroleum oils
around the. base of larger plants
also has proved to be an effective
means of killing the hardy weed.
-,The size and: long-term problems
involved in ridding ranges of mes
quite can be seen in the following
from the department booklet:
. "Costs . of the control methods
are repaid within nine years
through increased forage produc
tion. The increased productivity
continues for another lli years be
fore mesquite elimination becomes
necessary, again."

New Plant Tool
!assBackache
CLEVELAND," O. (IB A back
ache from planting tulip bulbs
might be avoided by a labor-
saving tool devised by Joseph
Becka. '
After the gardening chore last
year, Becka said he began think
ing there must be an easier way
of planting than the bending-over
method. . '
In his basement, Becka built
his "E-Z-Dig." It consists of a
length of steel tubing 254 inches
in diameter, fitted to an old spade
handle. The tubing end was sharp
ened, a hole cut through the tube
about nine Inches from the point,
fitted with a "step-on bar."
