Getting Rid of Wild Blackberry Bushes?

For 10 years, I have been fighting off wild blackberry vines in my front yard. I've dug them up, going 8 inches down on the roots and I've salted the soil. I've tried gallons and gallons of vinegar. I have cut the vines down weekly, but they spring up faster than I can cut. They have horrible thorns and choke out anything we try to plant there. They have only flowered once, otherwise I wouldn't know what they were. I need to get rid of these! Suggestions?

Go to the nearest feed store and tell them what you have. They will have what those of us who farm use for pasture use. It works well. I forget the name of it, sorry. Its one you mix up.
