Twenty - seven separate mailing
lists of county residents are used by
the county extension office to provide
direct information to various com
modity and activity groups in the
county. These lists include partici
pants in home economics and 4-H ac
tivities as well as agricultural com
modity lists of horticultural produc
ers, livestock and dairy men, crops,
forestry, and miscellaneous.
Since the extension office is coop
eratively financed by federal, state,
and county funds, extension agents
have recently given attention to fed
eral requirements that cooperative
names be on mailing lists only by re
quest. County residents who have
been receiving material from the ex
tension office should return the re
quest form recently sent them, indi
cating the subjects about which they
would like to receive material. Oth
erwise it will be necessary to dis
continue sending educational mater
ials.
Columbia county residents and
home owners who have not been re
ceiving materials from extension
agents but would like to, need only
notify the extension office, indicat
ing the commodities about which
they would like to receive informa
tion.

Scotch broom is growing in wood
land areas, reduced stand of the
plant allows regeneration of forest
seedlings.
Scotch broom is a shrub which is
of primary importance in western
Washington, Oregon and California.
It is reported to occupy over 100,000
acres in California alone. Estimates
of the number of acres in Washing
ton and Oregon have not been made,
but would extend into the hundreds
of thousands. Besides being a severe
competitor in areas where forage
and tree production are desired, the
plant is sometimes a serious fire
hazard.
Research indicates that the stem
miner attacks only Scotch broom.
Natural populations of the insect
have been found in the Tacoma,
Washington area and in the San
Francisco Bay area. It is thought by
researchers that these natural popu
lations were imported with the host
plant.
Research is continuing on other
biological controls for Scotch broom.
The researchers plan soon to intro
duce a seed weevil. This seed weevil
works only on the seeds of Scotch
broom and does not bother other
plants.
