Weed Inspector Maps 1965 Program of Control
Halton weed inspector W E McArthur outlined a 1965 control program to assist local inspectors under the Weed Control Act. Initiatives include public and private property weed control practices, roadside spray planning with road authorities, farmer guidance on chemical content, cooperation with agricultural representatives and county fare groups, continued Barber eradication, and ivy and ragweed control in urban areas. The plan also seeks hydro, belt telephone, rail, highway, and park authority cooperation, a bus trip to Guelph for 1964 exhibit entrants, a post contest for grade 4 and 5, 4H weed projects, and weekly press and radio updates.
