Best book on weeds is "Weeds of The West"
ISBN: 0-941570-13-4. This is from the University of Wyoming. Also a pocket
sized "Idaho's Noxious Weeds" is available from the Dept. of Agriculture
for free. Good pictures and descriptions in both. Ours get lots of
use.

[RC] re: Loco Weed
Any other ideas for getting ready of noxious/poisenous weeds? We have 8
acres and I think we have every type known to the pacific northwest. We have a
slew so it's not that easy to spray, can't plow it, etc. and it's a pain to
slog through. We would love to be more "organically" minded. I was thinking a
small goat herd. There was an article in the last Equus about noxious weeds
that are toxic to horses. Most books and web sites have pictures of the plants
in bloom, does any one know of a good site that shows close up of the leaves?
Thanks
