About Common Fennel: Closely related to domestic garden fennels, common fennel is a large, aromatic, perennial with upright, branched stems, growing up to 7 feet tall, with a very large taproot. The fern-like If you would like weed identification, foliage, as well as stems, roots, and seeds are site-specific control recommendations, Common Fennel hairless and all have a strong licorice scent. or additional noxious weed information, (Foeniculum vulgare var. vulgare) The finely divided leaves have a triangular contact the San Juan County Noxious arrangement and are dark green to bronze. Weed Control Program. Leaf stems are swollen, fleshy and have a wid- ened base. The small, yellow flowers form an Class B Noxious Weed umbrella-shaped cluster and bloom from May to September. Plants reproduce from thousands of seeds and fragments of root crown. (Control required in San Juan County) Why control Common Fennel? Common fennel rapidly spreads by seed, form- ing dense, monotypic stands that overtake native plants and habitats critical to wildlife and pollinators, as well as gardens and land- scaping.

Add chopped fresh fennel, zucchini, sweet red peppers, butternut squash, potatoes or chard. Ingredients • 2 cups dried white beans, chickpeas or cranberry beans • 1 large celery rib, in 3 pieces • ½ yellow onion, halved again through the root end • 2 bay leaves • Sea salt • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for garnish • 2 cups sliced leeks, white and pale green part only • 2 medium carrots, diced • 2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced • 1-1/2 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish • Freshly ground black pepper • Pickled Greek pepperoncini, sliced • 2 ounces feta Directions Soak the dried beans overnight in cold water to cover generously. Drain and place in a heavy pot with 1-1/2 quarts water. Add celery, onion, bay leaves and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook until the beans are tender, 1 hour or more. Check occasionally to make sure they are still submerged in liquid; add boiling water if necessary to keep them barely covered. When the beans are done, let them cool in their liquid. Discard the celery, onion and bay leaves. Set aside 1 cup of whole beans. In a food processor or blender, puree the remaining beans with enough of the cooking liquid to achieve the texture you like. (I like my soup on the thin side.) Warm the olive oil in a clean pot over medium heat.

    The Perfect Scythe – and Other Implements

    Journal of Nordic Archaeological Science 15, pp. 5–17 (2005) The perfect scythe – and other implements Janken Myrdal Section of Agricultural History, Dept. of Economics, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Box 7013, SE-750 07 Uppsala, Sweden ([email protected]) The theoretical foundation for the present article is the restricted number of solutions to a specific problem, which will determine the measurable regularity in the form of implements. Statistical analysis has been used on a number of implements from the collections at Nordiska museet to see if a deeper under- standing of their functionality can be reached. Different combinations of the dimensions of spades have been tested, and especially the relation between a straight shoulder and a pointed edge, while for rakes the length of the shaft is discussed, and on scythes the form of the snath. The main example in this arti- cle is the scythe blade, and the relation between its length and weight. This re- lationship is close to linear in scythes used for haymaking and the harvesting of corn, as an expression of the endeavour to reach the “perfect form”. Efforts in this direction were made during the scientification of agriculture around 1900, but were also prevalent before that. Later, when the hobby-scythe was taking over, this “perfect form” was abandoned. The perfect form allowed variations according to environmental circumstances, for instance, as longer blades were used to harvest thinner hay.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Aaron D. Drew for the degree of Master of Science in Wildlife Science presented on December 19. 2000. Title: Effects of Livestock Grazing and Small Mammal Populations on Endangered Bradshaw's Desert Parsley (Lomatium bradshawii) at Oak Creek. Willamette Valley. Oregon. Abstract approved: Redacted for privacy W. Daniel I evaluated the response of the federally listed endangered plant species Bradshaw's desert parsley (Lomatium bradshawii) to livestock grazing and small mammal depredation at Oak Creek, Linn County, Oregon, 1997-1998. I established six study blocks (three each in wooded and herbaceous pastures) with plots in each block randomly assigned to one of four intensities of livestock grazing based on biomass remaining after grazing (no grazing [1,746 kg/ha], high biomass [969 kg/ha], moderate biomass [670 kg/ha], and light biomass [318 kg/ha]). Small mammals were live-trapped in each of the study blocks pre and post application of the livestock grazing treatments. I mapped and measured 2,807 Bradshaw's desert parsley plants (n1,366 in the wooded and n = 1,441 in the herbaceous pastures) over the two year period to determine changes in schizocarp production, morphological structure (conical surface area and height), population composition (plant stage), survival, emergence of new plants, and effects of small mammal herbivory pre and post application of livestock grazing. Grazing reductions in standing crop biomass appeared to have a positive effect on emergence of new Bradshaw's desert parsley plants, while having no detectible effect on total plant density or survival. Differences in total plant density, survival, schizocarp production, morphological structure, and population composition were related to pasture type.

    Major Lineages Within Apiaceae Subfamily Apioideae: a Comparison of Chloroplast Restriction Site and Dna Sequence Data1

    American Journal of Botany 86(7): 1014±1026. 1999. MAJOR LINEAGES WITHIN APIACEAE SUBFAMILY APIOIDEAE: A COMPARISON OF CHLOROPLAST RESTRICTION SITE AND DNA SEQUENCE DATA1 GREGORY M. PLUNKETT2 AND STEPHEN R. DOWNIE Department of Plant Biology, University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois 61801 Traditional sources of taxonomic characters in the large and taxonomically complex subfamily Apioideae (Apiaceae) have been confounding and no classi®cation system of the subfamily has been widely accepted. A restriction site analysis of the chloroplast genome from 78 representatives of Apioideae and related groups provided a data matrix of 990 variable characters (750 of which were potentially parsimony-informative). A comparison of these data to that of three recent DNA sequencing studies of Apioideae (based on ITS, rpoCl intron, and matK sequences) shows that the restriction site analysis provides 2.6± 3.6 times more variable characters for a comparable group of taxa. Moreover, levels of divergence appear to be well suited to studies at the subfamilial and tribal levels of Apiaceae. Cladistic and phenetic analyses of the restriction site data yielded trees that are visually congruent to those derived from the other recent molecular studies. On the basis of these comparisons, six lineages and one paraphyletic grade are provisionally recognized as informal groups. These groups can serve as the starting point for future, more intensive studies of the subfamily. Key words: Apiaceae; Apioideae; chloroplast genome; restriction site analysis; Umbelliferae. Apioideae are the largest and best-known subfamily of tem, and biochemical characters exhibit similarly con- Apiaceae (5 Umbelliferae) and include many familiar ed- founding parallelisms (e.g., Bell, 1971; Harborne, 1971; ible plants (e.g., carrot, parsnips, parsley, celery, fennel, Nielsen, 1971).
