Issues Bulletin On Cattle Grub Control To aid Utah farmers in the fight against grubs on cattle, Utah State Extension service has Control issued a new bulletin, Cattle Grubs. Grubs cause an annual loss $100,000,000 to the cattle industry of the United States, and Utah cattle owners bear their proportional share of this loss, the bulletin states. Written by George F. Knowlton extension entomologist, and C. J. Sorenson, research associate professor of entomology at USAC, the bulletin briefly traces the life history of the insects and describes successful control measures. Livestock owners should watch control their cattle and apply treatments as early as possible in order to obtain best results, the bulletin states. Propr application of rotenone dusts, spray, dip, or wash will kill the grubs and their ' ' development into j bothersome heel and bomb flies. Last year in Cache valley, grubs appeared in the backs of cattle during January and February. In the warmer sections of the state, grubs appear even earlier, so control treatment should begin immediately in parts of Utoh. The bulletin can be had upon request from county agents office or the Utah State Extension service at Logan.

Anderson was elected chairman of the Richmond Black and White Show committee at the annual membership meetat the ing Thursday evening Richmond club rooms which were packed with enthusiastic supporters and dairymen. Mr. Anderson is a prominent breeder of registered Holstein cattle. James T. Murray was named vice chairman and Milton Webb was secretary. Thomas Whittle and A. C. Traveller are holdover directors. I.e Roy Funk and Marvin Thain, of Benson, are new directors elected who replace B. C. Monson and Dalton Hunt. Thomas Whittle has been chairman of the committee for the past two years. Plans for the 31st Richmond Black and White Show were lrv sticated and dates for this years set for May 15 and 16. Possibilities of conducting a sale of cattle at the show were discussed and Ifiis activity may be added. This would no doubt bring many people from outside the state to the Richmond show in quest of fine quality dairy cattle and would alo increase the number of exhibitors of top quality cattle. Progress made in Richmond in the dairy industry was reviewed by County Agent Lloyd R. Hun-sak- er who pointed out that in 1911 a dairy herd improvement association in Richmond everaged 233 pounds of butterfat per cow. In 1945 the Richmond association averaged 388 pounds of butterfat per cow. Mr.f Hunsaker said. This increase of 135 pounds of butter fat per cow did not just result of happen, but Is the years of constructive dairy breed ing. feeding, and management work to which the Black and White show can claim a part In inspiring dairymen to do the job better. He further pointed out that there are problems ahead, citing that of the 474 dairy bulls in use in the county 171 of them are This situation should grades. be corrected, said Mr. Hunsaker, "so as to bring the lower level herds to a better production basis. He also indicated that there are only 200 herds out of 1600 herds in the county enrolled in dairy herd improvement work, that more herds In such associations would indefinitely help the dairy industry. Reuben Hansen, assistant agent, expressed appreciation to the Black and White committee for the interest the committee has shown in the club program by devoting so much attention to the junior division. He said that by encouraging boys and girls of today you are building ' for tomorrow. breeders dairy Picture slides were then shown of the 1945 show. 4-- H River Heights School Plans rjl Ulty riiySIClcHl .
