Soil conservation work in La-
mar county has absorbed $146,535,
which is $32,351 over the original
allotment from the state for the
1946 program, according to Roy
iP, Mason, administrative officer
of the Lamar County Agriculture
Conservation Association.
Since most of the practices fol-
lowed in the program mean long-
range benefits, the amount spent
indicates a growing interest in
soil conservation and improve-
ment among county landowners.
Additions to the original allot-
ment were made in July, Septem-
ber and October, and the state
has promised more funds in the
event allotments already granted
are exhausted before the 1947 pro-
gram gets underway.
ACA funds are used in aiding
the farmer by absorbing a part
of the cost of constructing ter-
races and water pools and by
buying pasture seed and winter
cover crops. The farmer is paid
for his mowings and is also paid
a fee for each acre of ground sod-
ded.
Funds for the coming year will
be within 5 per cent of the 1946
funds.
“In the early fall when cattle
grubs are mature they puncture
holes in the hide of the animal and
fall to the ground. When these
I first holes appear in the backs of
| the animal, generally in Novem-
^ ber or December, the first treat-
I ment should be given,” says La-
| mar County Agent M. U. May.
Five percent Rotenone is the most
effective insecticide against cat-
tle grub, and it can be applied
either as a dust for small herds,
or as a spray for large herds. One
j part of 5 per cent Rotenone mix-
ed with two parts of Prophylite
or Tripoli Earth makes a dust that
will kill the grubs. When a spray
is used it takes TVs pounds of 5
per cent Rotenone and 100 gallons
of water. Treatment should be
put on at intervals of 30 days and
it generally takes three treatments
to get the job done when either a
dust or spray is used.
Material for controlling cattle
grubs can be secured from local
feed and seed stores and drug
stores stated County Agent May,
and many of these firms have al-
ready mixed materials that will
adequately control cattle grubs.
