Grain insects are becoming
more prevalent over the county.
Frank Kimbrough of Salado is
having trouble with leaf hop-
pers in his oat fields; however
control measures are not re-
commended for this pest Fav-
orable moisture will cause the
grain to out-grow the damage
and cold weather reduces their
population.
This is a sucking insect which
has the ability to hop and fly
for short distances. Presence of
this pest is usually evident by
the grain having an orange col-
or then turning brown. When
walking through a field which
is infested the leafhopper flies
up about 6 inches off the
ground. This insect is less de-
structive han the winter grain
mite.
W. W. Pittman of Temple is
starting his Angus cattle into
the performance testing pro-
gram. He has wiled an applica-
tion wfth the Performance Reg-
istry Association to place an
eight month old bull on the

feedlot test. The animal will b
fed an unlimited r&tfon for 140
days and the gaining ability
will be determined from this
test. Bulls of the feedlot test
must gain a minimum of 2.5
pounds per day in order to
qualify for entry in the regis-
try. Other producers can get in
formation concerning perform-
ance testing from the county
agents office.
Haydon Morris of White Hall
is makjng preparation to con-
duct a fertilizer demonstration.
The demonstration will include
nitrogen fertilizer on about 20
acres of grain sorghum stubble
and 10 acres of corn land. Grain
sorghum and cotton will be fer-
tilized in this demonstration.
The fertilizer will be applied
at the rate of thirty pounds of
actual nitrogen per acre. He is
going to apply the material
with a broadcast spreader just
before rebedding the land. This
will place the fertilizer just be
low the seed zone.
The question often comes up
whether dry or liquid fertilizer
is the best. Dry and liquid fer-
tilizers are of equal value pro-
vided they are applied in equi-
valent amounts of water-soluble
nitrogen or phosphorous.
The main factors to consider
are those other than agronomic.
Cost .of the fertilizer cost of
handling cost of application
are more important.
A summary of experimental
work done over the nation com-
paring liquid with dry fertilizer
shows virtually no difference in
results between the two.
Congratulations to Mollie
Gandy of Rogers for having the
winning entry in the Rogers
Pecan Show. The winning pe
cans were Success variety and
they were produced in her yard.
The runner-up entries were
made by Nelson Hander of Bel-
ton and J. W. Hill of Holland
(Both of these men are among
the leading producers of the
state.

who enjoy hunting but do not
enjoy Gating deer mdat Usual-
ly improper preparation is the
cause of this situation.
Some of the steps which will
improve the quality of moat in-
clude thoroughly bleeding the
animal dressing the deer as
soon as possible to insure rapid
loss or body temperature rapid
cooling and wiping the body
cavity dry with a clean cloth.
Even though you may want
to exhibit your deer it is best
to transport the animal in the
trunk of the car. If draped over
the front fender of the car en
gine heat will start meat spoilage.
