near Rusk, reports good control
following spraying with Toxa-
phene and Heptachlor. Both of
these insecticides will control
grasshoppers, but should be ap-
plied according to the manufac-
turers' instructions and all pre-
cautions taken. Cattle should be
removed from treated area for
at least 15 days.
Cherokee County hog grow-
ers are showing a great deal of
interest in the hog program. The
recent short course grew in at-

the four week school have vis-
i'ed the extension office to talk
about the program.

Coastal bermudagrass contin-
ues to prove itself in demon-
stration work being carried out
in Cherokee County. Coastal
has already been proven to pro-
duce more forage with the
same fertility and moisture
than Common Bermuda through
experimental work, at various
places.
This also applies to our own
Cherokee County which is be-
ing shown by different demon-
strators in the County.
Mr. Charles Schultz of the
Reese Community has a variety
demonstration comparing the
results of coastal bermudagrass
and common bermuda. He has
three different plots in the dem-
onstration, two being coastal
plots and one common bermu-
da plot. On the first plot of
coastal a 400 pound application
of 10-20-10 was made, on the
common bermuda plot a 200
pound application of 10-20-10
was made and the last coastal
plot also received 200 pounds
of 10-20-10 fertilizer.
While visiting with Mr.
Schultz we took clippings from
each of the three plots to de-
termine the pounds and tons
per acre on each. This demon-
stration will be made as soon
as the samples have dried. How-
ever, from our green weight of
the samples we arc certain that
the coastal has shown much
more response to the fertilizer
application.
Mr. J. I. Dean of the Forest
Community has a fertilizer dem-
onstration this year and some
excellent results are indicated.
We visited with Mr. Dean last
week and took clippings from
different fertilizer application
plots. He has plots fertilized
at the rate of 160-0-80, 0-0-0 and
800-40. There is an absolute
distinction between tha various
fertilizer levels.
The 80-0-40 plot based on
green weight calculations show-
ed a 6.75 ton per acre yield
compared to 1.75 tons per acre
yield where no fertilizer was
applied. This is almost unreal
but is true based on green
weight calculations. It will be
interesting to note the results
based on dry weight.
We invite the public to take
notice of these interesting dem-
onstrations throughout t h e
county.

¡Alio High School was a special

CONTROL HOUSEFLIES
AND OTHER INSECTS . . .
The request for control of
Houseflies and other insccts
have been numerous the last
few weeks. We all know flies
carry disease germs that en-
danger health . . . Don't give
them a chance to live and mul-
tiply.
Sanitation is the first step
in controlling this pest. Make
sure all windows and doors are
tightly screened. Keep garbage
and other refuse tightly cover
ed and dispose of it frequently
by burning or burying. Keep
compost piles covered and clean
up after dogs, cats and other
pets.
Killing is the second step in
controlling houseflies. Kill flies
¡ by spraying in and around tho
house. Use both the space and
surface-type spray. The new bait
preparations are good for use
outaide where flics gather
For Information on type of
bait or spray to use, and how
to apply, got a copy of the bul-
