CORN ROOTWORM •
Last year a corn rootworm study
was made -on .14 farms in Bruce
County. The average number of
worms/plant ranged from .11 in
the Port Elgin area to 4.4 in the
south part of Bruce:
In the past, 10 worms/plant have
been used as' the figtire where it is
economical to use an insecticide.
In my opinion this number is too
high and I would suggest a figure
of 2 is more reasonable. If you
have planted corn in.the same field
for more than two years 'and if you
live in the townships of Culross,
Kinloss, Huron and South Kincard-
ine, then youl should probably be
treating with an insecticide. Other
people in the County should check
their fields for rootworm about the
second week of July.
A number of insecticides are
presently recommended for root-
worm control, i.e. Bux, Dyfonate,
Di-syston, Thimet, Furadan, Das'-
anit, Birlane and Chlordane.
Resistance has been found to
Chlordane and I do not' recommend
using it.
Further information is available
from the O.M.A.F. office, Box

It's somewhat of.a chore to begin
to write a news column' again after
six weeks in hospital. However by
up. the number of times it was
mentioned in the hundreds of
letters ,and cards I- redeived, I do
believe,th local news ColUmn has a
pike dur local papers.
Be it' simple as, it may seem to
sonic, there are those who lot* for
it as they would a letter from home.
As I have another . six weeks of
"doing nothing" perhaps • some
could' take a moment or two and
pass on a,,bit of 'news to make the
column more' interesting.
For those •who followed- the
110' hockey games involving David
Farrish all winter, the, end has
come and the final game played in
Hamilton last week,• saw the area
folk' on hand, along with David's

those frOna this community, who
- were hospitalized, have been able
to return home. Mrs. Lillian
Simpson, Ewan MacLean and
Gordon Finlayson' are, all able to be

i Ran still remains in hospital in

BRUCE .COUNTY
FARM .REPORT
OUTLOOK FOR THE NEW
DAIRY. YEAR = Part III
HERD. HEALTH
Have you ever thought of using a
tractor to help overcome: Mastitis?
In certain cases it is uvery effective
tool.' Preventative maintenance is a
far better and far cheaper way to
overcome diseases Of which mastit-
is is only one. It only makes sense
that if I. can spend some money now
and prevent disease which would
probably cost me more in the long
run, I should try it. This is where
your tractor comes in. It can be
used to remove that pile of rocks or
stumps the Cows have to climb
over; to remove the manure pile - a
place which is a Wonderful spot for
pathogenic bacteria "to grow; to
grade the cow lane or to spread
gravel around the, door. Medicine
is not the only way to beat Mastitis.
How long has it been since you
have changed, the oil in your car? -
5000' Miles? How long has it been
since you `have changed the oil in
your vacuum pump? - 1 ,year? Did
you know that If your' car went .as
long between oil. changes .as your
vacuum pump you would change oil
every 55,000 miles - 65,000 miles?
• Your vacuum system is one of
the most. overworked and underrat-
ed pieces of equipment on your
farm.. It- is supposed to be able to
massage and take milk out of one of
the most delicate . and vulnerable
parts of t!id cow's body and yet
there is very little concern about its,
• conditiOn. • • Too much vacuum 'is worse than
too little and .yet there are a lot of
stables with a pump that should
handle ''units milking with 3 or 4.
To keep. the milkers on an extra.
Weight is, added to the vacuum con-
troller or perhaps it is just stuck.
Measurement of vacuum in inches
should stay at about . 12-15 inches
'all the time. It is the volume of air
removed that' does the actual
Milking. It would more than pay
you to have your vacuum system
checked by an expert and , replace
defective areas. There will be less
udder irritatidn and more milk in
the 'pail.
All inflammations are caused by
an infection or injury of some kind
and this means in most cases
bacteria. If you keep your
equipment clean this destroys one
of the most common breeding
places of bacteria. Bacteria can be
transferred from cow to cow during
the milking propess through the
milkers. • -Cleanliness, sanitation •
and teat dipping .are a giant ;step
towards destroying these disease
carriers. A little care and
gentleness around' ,the cows will
pay dividends.
Management is the key to
preventing disease. Watch the
animals for signs of weakening or,
.different behaviour. Remove
anything that may. injure • the
animal's or in other ways cause or
contribute to' disease. A clean
barn, equipMent and-surroundings
and an aleri operator can prevent
most of the common ailments of,
cattle. This prevention can put a
lot of money in your pocket.' , How
much extra time ,would you work
for $500.? An extra 10 minutes in
the barn each day may earn yoe
this.
