"No!" declares Lyman H. Rich, Extension dairyman with Utah State University, Logan. "Not unless un-less the records are used in making herd management decisions." "Many dairymen in Utah who are enrolled in a testing program and who have put their records to use definitely say that these records re-cords do pay," he adds. A recent survey of Utah's dairy farms shows that where records are kept the average production of but-terfat but-terfat was 391 pounds per year. This compares with 417 pounds per cow for Cache Valley dairymen who are participating in a herd-esting herd-esting program. At the present- time an investment invest-ment of about $5.00 per year is required re-quired to keep a cow on standard DIIIA test. This small investment has provided many dairymen with information which they have incorporated in-corporated into improved breeding and management practices resulting result-ing in higher production and greater great-er profit. Another testing program, carried out mostly by the dairyman himself, him-self, is called, Weigh-A-Day-A-Month". It costs even less and provides pro-vides a good guide for culling the low-producing "broaders' from the herd. This economical system is especially adopted for use by owners own-ers of small herds and commercial producers. The Extension dairymen points out that wise management decisions made possible by these records often substantially increase the margin of profit experienced by even the small dairyman. Records dating back 30 years or more have proven that one of the best investments that the dairyman dairy-man can make is in a testing program. pro-gram.

Mastitis Control Don't depend on modern antibiotics anti-biotics to serve as a 'cure-all' in controlling mastitis," warns Dr. Don W. Thomas, Extension veterinarian veterin-arian with Utah State University, Logan. "Mastitis," he points out, "is is more of a sanitation management manage-ment problem than any other disease dis-ease affecting dairy cattle. Actually, Actual-ly, antibiotic syringes may be more of a curse than a Messing to many dairymen who buy large quantities of them thinking that they are sure cure for mastitis and a variety of other diseases as well, and neglect neg-lect the importance of management. manage-ment. "Good management is especially important in controlling mastitis and many other disease problems during cold, wet winter and spring month," Dr. Thomas explains. "Good management includes providing pro-viding shelter with clean, dry bedding, bed-ding, concrete or other hard surface sur-face for feeding and watering a-reas a-reas to avoid 'miring 'and slopping", slop-ping", washing teats and udder before be-fore milking, using a clean, properly proper-ly adjusted milking machine, and taking it off as soon as done. "Such practices will go a long way in preventing mastitis. However, How-ever, where the disease has already al-ready become a problem your local veterinarian can help with diagnosing diag-nosing the particular type of mastitis mast-itis organism, prescribing treatment and supervising a control program to prevent its spread. "Treatment for mastitis is no place for amateur guess work," Dr. Thomas emphasizes. Treating Grains "If you are treating your farm-stored farm-stored wheat or other grains to protect them from insects, be sure to use only premium grade mal-athion mal-athion spray or dust," advises Dr. George F. Knowlton, Extension entomologist en-tomologist with Utah State University, Univer-sity, Logan. Although the treatment is most effective and is most commonly applied ap-plied at the time grain is being placed in the bin, it does reduce the insect population when sprayed on top of the grain. One pint of fresh, premium grade 57 percent malathion diluted in 2 to 5 gallons of water is considered sufficient to protcet 100 bushels of wheat from insect pests. Dr. Kowlton also points out that growers should protect their wheat and other small grains from rats, mice and birds, as well as insects. Contamination "by these pests will result in wheat being rejected for milling purposes. Marven J.
