Show Tage Three June 20, 1968 SOUTHERN UTAH NEWS, Kanab, Utah Grass Bug Sparying Of 2000 Acres At Alton Is Successful The grass bug spraying in the Alton area was very successful in controlling the grass bug infestations according to Dwain Haacke, Soil Conservation Service. Approximately 2,000 acres of intermediate wheat grass and ciested wheat grass seeding areas was airplane sprayed with Malathion this spring to control the insect. The local ranchers paid for the cost of spraying which amounted to $3,000 dollars or approximately $1.45 per acre. They were assisted by members of the Kane County Technical Action Panel mainly Harold Lindsay, Extension Service and Dwain Haacke, Soil Conservation Service who organized the spraying operation. The grass bug sucks the chlorophyll from the plant greatly reducing the production and vigor of the plant. Tills causes the the plant to grow only five to six inches high and dry up to give the appearance that the plant is lacking plant moisture. On the heavily infested areas, grass has no forage value for any type of livestock. The savings to the ranchers this year alone vva? estimated to be between $40,000.00 and $50,000.00. All those who participated in the spraying operations were well pleased with the results of the bug control BYU Sets 'History Hunt' A "hunt for history will be conducted by Brigham Young University researchers in Southern Utah for two weeks begin- ning June 19.
