in operation. 1t might be pointed
out here that nearly all of the bet
ter agricultural counties of the
state now have a weed district
fun~ctioning.
Weeds cost the American farm
er more than the combined loss
from animal, insect and plant di-
seases. In 1850, it is estimated
the total agricultural loss to weeds
in the United States was 6 billion
dollars. This was IL times the
annual loss due to animal diseas-
es. Yes, it is often difficult to in
terest the average farmer or the
general public in weed control.
In Montana approximately one
acre in each Is of croplands is
infested with one or more of the
perennial weeds. On rangeland
this ratio is one in so and the
irrigated areas; one in ten. With
information and material now
available for weed control, there
is no reason why this loss should
go on from year to year.
NldliJ 1dAlllclS dLO Tie WSGQ
committee are of the opinion that
the noxious weed situation in
Richland County will gradually
become worse unless some uni
fled effort is employed to COM
bat this menace. A weed district
makes it mandatory that noxious
weeds be controlled and kept
from going to seed on public as
well as private land.
Petitions are now being circu-
lated in the county for the Gre
alton of a legal weed control dis
trict and indications are that the
majority of the farmers and
ranchers contacted are in favor
of the unified control that a weed
district offers.
