Members brought samples of weeds they found in their garden or along the roadside. These in cluded Spiny (clot) burr, Kochia, buttonw eed (cheese plant), nightshade, purslane, prickly or China lettuce, chickw eed, dandelions, oxalis, puncture vine, flood weed and quackgrass. Some other weeds gardeners are con cerned about are the yellow star thistle, knapweed, toadflax, tan sy, goatgrass and lythrum (pur ple loosestrife). There are two suggested methods of control-manual, such as the use of a hoe, shovel or cultivator and then burning them, or the use o f chem icals. Chemicals include contact her bicides (Roundup. Knock-Out or Kleenup) effective residual her bicides that will kill weeds or pre vent their emergence include Casoran or Dacthal. Sterilants may also be used but these pre vent all growth for many years. Brush control such as on fence rows, ditch banks, driveways and around buildings may be acquired by using Amitrol-T or Brush- BoGone. This will also prevent stumps from sprouting. The most important precaution in using chemicals is to read the directions and follow them carefully. During the business meeting it was reported that six members at tended the Blue Mountain District #10 meeting in Condon October 8. Club yearbooks w ere distributed. It was reported that the finance committee of Cycle Oregon VI will be meeting soon to dispense monies earned by the groups that cooperated in this project.
