Show COUNTY AGENT'S CORNER (!!ili!!!!!:!;!"'!il;'!!l!!!!lT!iI'!T!'T'7,,,''',,l,l,,T''i':' 'ir11:"'1-''- :'" 1 Lice and Grubs There is no need for cattlemen to suffer great annoyance and loss this winter from cattle lice and cattle grubs, reminds Marven Ogden Utah State University Extension agent for West Millard County. Current information on dipping, spraying, and dusting for lice is now available Ln the new USU Extension Ex-tension leaflet No. 37, "Cattle Lice Let's Control Them". This leaflet is available at the county agent's office of-fice without charge. Since cattle of all kinds throughout through-out Utah tend to suffer severely from lice during the winter months when the weather is cold and the hair is long, this control information inform-ation is also important to dairymen dairy-men interested in maintaining milk production this winter. The time to control cattle grubs is right now. The two new cattle grub systemic insecticides Co-Ray spray and Trolene boluses should be used in the fall as soon as the adult heel flies and bomb flies die off. This allows killing the tiny cattle grubs inside the animal before be-fore extensive body damage can occur. Either chemical treatment permits very few grubs to survive and reach the backs of the cattle. Dr. George F. Knowlton, Utah State University Extension entomologist, ento-mologist, points out that, in addition addi-tion to controlling cattle grubs, the above mentioned new insecticides reduce trouble caused by other livestock pests. Co-Ral boluses show somewhat similar parasite reductions plus control of new species spe-cies of Internal worms that also infest cattle. Poultry Consumers will be assured of federal inspection in all plants processing poultry for interstate commerce after January 1 1959. This results from the new Poultry Products Inspection Act which becomes be-comes effective that date. The act provides that all poultry and poultry poul-try products which move for sale across state lines must bear a stamp of approval indicating it has been inspected for wholesomeness by an agent of the U. S. Department Depart-ment of Agriculture. Eange Seeding A new method of range seeding of particular value in urid regions is now being conducted near Cedar City, Utah, by the Utah State University Un-iversity Agricultural Experiment Station. Dr. John F. Vallentine, Extension Ex-tension range specialist, reports the method involves the use of furrows and supplemental irrigation to take advantage of peak streamflows in early spring. Seedings are best made in late fall so seedlings can emerge and make good growth prior to spring irrigation. Bcause of their ability to begin growth early Ln the spring and take advantage of "high water" irrigation irriga-tion and yet survive through normal nor-mal summer drouth, the wheat-grasses wheat-grasses are particularly adapted to this practice. Weeds Proper treatment this fall on patches of hard-to-kill weeds will often produce more satisfactory results re-sults than spraying growing weeds in the summer. A few of the effective soil treatments treat-ments available today include: At-lacide, At-lacide, Chlorea, Karmex, Ureabore, ' . ' 1. mi miff ... SITING , !

CATTLE Producers and feeders should analyze an-alyze market prospects before buying buy-ing or selling cattle, advises Morris H. Taylor, Extension livestock marketing specialist for Utah State university, Logan. Each purchase of cattle should be based on close calculation of costs and prices needed to break even, he says, since unbridled or unwise purchases of stock can jeopardize jeop-ardize investments and saddle families fam-ilies with bills that are difficult to pay. The higher the price of cattle, Mr. Taylor emphasizes, the more sensitive is the price structure. Hence, large changes in price are produced by small changes in demand, de-mand, supply of competing meats, feed conditions, and cattle numbers. num-bers. Cattle numbers are apparently now at the low point of the "cattle cycle". This year livestock produc ers have held back large numbers of heifers for breeding herds. Sales of cows have also been below normal. nor-mal. Since slaughter cattle sales lag behind increases in numbers, it will be at least two years before the cattle kill shows much increase, Mr. Taylor points out.

The speed with which numbers are increased will determine largely the time at which prices hit their peak during the cycle. High risks associated with the present stage of the "cattle cycle" can be minimized through close calculation of costs and prices Likewise, high prices received during dur-ing this stage of the cycle can be used to put livestock operations on a more sound, profitable footing, the specialist suggests.
