run composer require "laravelcollective/html":"^5.4" to add laravelcollective to your project as Form::select is no longer available in laravel 5+

and have a quick look on this laravelcollective Doc.s

Edit: in your controller you've to pass $usertypes_list so the function should be

public function get() {
    $usertypes_list = User_type::pluck('id', 'type');
    return view('edit')->compact('usertypes_list');
}

then your view should looks like:

<div class="form-group">
<label for="name" class="col-md-4 control-label">User type</label>

<div class="col-md-6">
        {!!Form::select('user_type_id[]', $usertypes_list, null, ['class' => 'form-control'])!!}
</div>
