This weed, poisonous to cattle
and horses, is rapidly spreading
throughout western Oregon and
now Is susceptible to spray for the
best and cheapest eradication.
Where other feed is available,
farm animals will avoid tansy
plants In pastures. Once they
acquire a taste for it, however,
they seem to develop a liking for
it and literally eat it to the burst
ing point, according to Dr. J. N.
Shaw, OSC department of veter
inary medicine head. He describes
the effect of the weed as a cumu
lative poison which takes some
time to cause death.
Stinking Willie is a petennial,

no flowers until the second season.

Plans are underway for a three-
day Willamette valley grassland
pasture tour with scheduled stops
at outstanding faim s in five coun
ties, announces Roger W. Morse,
OSC extension dairy specialist.
The tour dates are May 23, 24. and
25.
Morse is heading a committee of
OSC extension
specialists and
county extension agents who are
making the tour arrangements.
Members of the agricultural com
mittee of the Portland Chamber of
Commerce are invited to partici
pate.
Recommended time for control is
during May and early June, before
the plants reach bud stage. Ap
plications of 3 pounds o f 2,4-D
parent acid per acre suffices at
this time.
After its characteristic, brilliant
yellow flowers appear, in June or
early July, more expensive sptay
is required. These may be either
atlacide, sodium chlorate or ani
mate.
By the second year, tansy plants
reach a height of 30 to 36 Inches.
Stems usually have a purplish
caste and leaves are attached di
rectly to the stalk. They are dark
with deeply cut edges, measuring
5 to 10 inches in length.
Shown in the illustration is Rex
Warren, OSC farm crops specialist,
examining a tansy plant at the
stage when 2,4-D spray is most
effective. He reports the main con
centration of ragwort is on the
coast and throughout the western
part o f the Willamette valley.
Scattered plants are reported in
all western portions of the state
and is said to be spreading, in
spite of many local attacks on it.

Q UESTION; Some friends of
ours had an accident with their
car but their insurance com
pany refused to pay their claim
on the ground that the applica.
tion for the policy did not cor
rectly state how the car was to
be used. Our friends had never
actually signed any application
so how could the company re.
fuse to pay?
A N S W E R ; It isn't necessary
for the insured to actually sign
the application to become re

of the policy when it is issued
