Atkin November 3, 1929 – January 22, 2013 Joy was born November 3, 1929, in Spokane, Washington, to Theodore VanderWeyst and Cuba Rae Berneck. Joy lived in the Spokane and North Idaho area through age 9, during which time her parents divorced and Cuba married Bert Hall from Washington, Utah. At that time Bert was working on road construction in the Spokane and North Idaho area. Joy became a sister to Bert’s 5 daughters and 1 son. The family lived in North Idaho for three years and then moved to Washington, Utah. Joy attended and graduated from Dixie High School where she was Valedictorian of her high school class. Following high school Joy attended Dixie College where she met and married Rudger Clayton Atkin on March 10, 1948, in Washington, Utah. Their marriage was later solemnized in the St. George LDS Temple. Joy became Clayton’s partner in raising their four sons (Jerry, Brent, Doyle, and Troy) as she supported him in being a cattle rancher and in other business ventures. She kept the books, paid the bills, and helped Clayton in all he did. Joy served tirelessly in many church and public service assignments throughout her life. Joy quickly grew to love the ranching life; which was a good thing because she didn’t have another option. She and Clayton spent the first few years of their married lives living on the Strip on the old Childer’s homestead. She cooked and cared for the hired men, Clayton, and their young sons until Jerry was old enough to go to school, at which time they moved to town. Clayton continued to live at the ranch a week at a time, returning to town long enough for Joy to feed him a good meal, do the laundry and send him off the next morning. When she did get a chance to go to the ranch she loved to see full ponds and green grass. She often made time in her busy schedule to go to the strip during the monsoons so she could have the opportunity to watch ponds fill up. Clayton had a sharp eye for good cattle and taught Joy well. At the time she married Clayton the ranch was running Hereford cattle and she came to love that breed. When the market shifted towards other breeds, Joy was always quick to point out that Herefords were some of the best Strip cattle there ever were. Joy was always there when the calves were shipped in the fall and was often found leaning on the fence eyeing up the calves. She would later comment on the condition of the calves and what could be improved upon in the future. Joy was always an advocate for education. Not only did she love to learn new things herself, but she also enjoyed helping others to learn and grow in new ways. She was a strong supporter of the Arizona Strip Workshop and other groups such as D/ASIA where she was able to combine her love of the strip with the opportunity to help others learn. Rarely was there a workshop held that Joy was not in attendance. Above all, Joy cared for everyone she knew. She was quick to make new relationships and to be aware of any needs that she could fill. Her thoughts were always spent on how she could help someone improve. When she figured out what she could do, it was most often done quietly and in a way that others would not recognize the good she had done. She never needed praise or support in the good that she did. She loved and cared for others because it was who she was. She will be greatly missed by all who have known her. 7 Robin L. (Rob) Grumbles University of Arizona Cooperative Extension Faculty 1974-2013 Between the Grand Canyon and the Utah border lie five million acres of public land where, in the 1970s, ranchers and government agents clashed head-on over grazing rights and environmental impact statements. "There was a lot of angst on both sides, especially the ranchers," recalls Bob Sandberg, who was with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) at the time. He contacted University of Arizona Cooperative Extension and asked for help. He sat down with Robin Grumbles, Mohave County Cooperative Extension Director and several others. They came up with a novel idea: What if we brought everyone to the table for a science-based workshop on the issues of grazing livestock on public land to improve knowledge, promote understanding and start developing productive relationships? Oh yeah, that'll work! The Arizona Strip was wild-west rangeland where cattle ranchers and BLM agents shared only heated arguments and intense emotions. Yet work it did. And still does 35 years later. The Arizona /Utah Range Livestock Workshop and Tour, introduced in 1978, was so successful it has continued every year since, reaching more than 7,000 participants. The two-day event brings ranchers, researchers, BLM agents, forest rangers, Cooperative Extension specialists, environmentalists and others together. "The workshops really catapulted us into the new age," said Whit Bunting, BLM range management director.

  • Asters of Yesteryear (Updated April 2018)
    Asters of Yesteryear (Updated April 2018) About this Update: The document was originally posted in a shorter version, to accompany the brief article "Where Have all our Asters Gone?" in the Fall 2017 issue of Sego Lily. In that version it consisted simply of photos of a number of plants that had at some time been included in Aster but that no longer are, as per Flora of North America. In this version I have added names to the photos to indicate how they have changed since their original publication: Date and original name as published (Basionym) IF name used in Intermountain Flora (1994) UF name used in A Utah Flora (1983-2016) FNA name used in Flora of North America (2006) I have also added tables to show the renaming of two groups of species in the Astereae tribe as organized in Intermountain Flora. Color coding shows how splitting of the major genera largely follows fault lines already in place No color Renamed Bright Green Conserved Various Natural groupings $ Plant not in Utah It is noteworthy how few species retain the names used in 1994, but also how the renaming often follows patterns already observed. Asters of Yesteryear (Updated April 2018) Here are larger photos (16 inches wide or tall at normal screen resolution of 72 dpi) of the plants shown in Sego Lily of Fall 2017, arranged by date of original publication. None of them (except Aster amellus on this page) are now regarded as true asters – but they all were at one stage in their history. Now all are in different genera, most of them using names that were published over 100 years ago.

  • And White Snakeroot (Ageratina Altissima) Under Different Storage Conditions
    Evaluation of the Stability of Benzofuran Ketones in Rayless Goldenrod (Isocoma pluriflora) and White Snakeroot (Ageratina altissima) Under Different Storage Conditions Stephen T. Lee,* T. Zane Davis, and Daniel Cook USDA-ARS Poisonous Plant Research Laboratory, Logan, Utah, USA *Corresponding author: Stephen Lee, [email protected] Abstract White snakeroot (Ageratina altissima) and rayless goldenrod (Isocoma pluriflora) cause “trembles” and “milk sickness” in livestock and humans, respectively. The toxin in white snakeroot and rayless goldenrod was identified in 1927 and 1930, respectively, as tremetol. It was reported that the toxin in white snakeroot disappears as it is dried and that completely dried plants were incapable of producing “trembles” or “milk sickness.” However, it has been suggested that the toxins in rayless goldenrod were not degraded by drying and both fresh and dry plants are toxic. Later, tremetol isolated from white snakeroot and rayless goldenrod was determined to be a complex mixture containing various benzofuran ketones including tremetone 1, dehydrotremetone 2, and hydroxytremetone in white snakeroot and tremetone 1, dehydrotremetone 2, and 3- oxyangeloyltremetone 3 in rayless goldenrod. In this report, the stability of the benzofuran ketones in white snakeroot and rayless goldenrod was studied by measuring the concentrations of the benzofuran ketones in ground and in intact dried leaves stored at different temperatures over an approximately 6-year time period.

  • Recurved Larkspur(Delphinium Recurvatum) Species Profile
    Plants Recurved Larkspur (Delphinium recurvatum) Recurved Larkspur (Delphinium recurvatum) Status Federal: None State: None CNPS: List 1B Population Trend Global: Unknown State: Unknown Within Inventory Area: Unknown Data Characterization © 1998 Dean Wm. Taylor The location database for recurved larkspur (Delphinium recurvatum) includes 63 data records dated from 1902 to 1998 (California Natural Diversity Database 2001). Thirteen of the occurrences are more than 50 years old, and only 20 of the occurrences were documented in the previous 10 years, but most of the occurrences are assumed to be extant. Twenty-seven of the occurrences are of high precision and may be accurately located, including 2 of 4 located within the inventory area. Very little ecological information is available for recurved larkspur. The literature on the species pertains primarily to its taxonomy. The main sources of general information on this species are the Jepson Manual (Hickman 1993) and the California Native Plant Society (2001). Specific observations on habitat and plant associates, threats, and other factors are summarized in the California Natural Diversity Database (2001). Range Historically, recurved larkspur was widely distributed in California’s Great Valley, ranging from Butte County to Kern County. Most of the known occurrences are in Kern, Tulare, and San Luis Obispo Counties. The species now appears to be very rare outside the southern San Joaquin Valley (California Natural Diversity Database 2001). Occurrences within the ECCC HCP/NCCP Inventory Area Four occurrences are reported from the inventory area, 3 of which are on private land southeast of Byron.
