met at the home of Patty
Coleman Oct. 30 for their 6th
meeting in the form of a
Halloween Party.
4H Club Members invited
mothers to be guests at an
informal buffet supper ' -
dress optional.
Members and guests were
welcomed by Patti Coleman
and Brenda DeJong and an
old man sitting smoking a
cigar as well as eerie voices
and sounds. The house was
suitably decorated with ghosts
and witches, table centre
Even the deserts appeared
as witches (cup-cakes)',
,ptimpkins ('squares and cofife:
ies), candy apples. The prizes
were even Halldween Long
Johns, Pumpkin Bread etc.
Mothers were immediately
involved on arriving by mak-
ing plain and whole wheat
Tea Biscuits for the first
time, the Metric Way. These
were served piping hot with
Creamy ham and beef plus
salad, cheese, relishes. fruit
punch and coffee.
The 4-H pledge was fol-
lowed, by costume judging.
First prize went to an old
man with a cane (June
Haney) second and third
(tied) a witch and , a clown
(Rosie Van. Dyk and Dorothy.
Medd). Then a contest con-
ducted by Brenda De Jong
.resembling musical chairs
had everyone feeling at ease.
Winner was Linda Van Milt-
enburg. Everyone 'related,
their most frightening and/
or amusing Halloween exkr-
ience. It was interesting to
- learn that Halloween is'non-
existent in Holland.
However, one mother, Mrs
Nobel had everycine in stitch.-'
es as she related ad exper-
ience in how Slit adapted to
the Canadian celebration.
This was followed by
everyone singing several
Halloween songs adapted to
Xmas music, eg. Jingle
'3ells. By this time the
biscuits were ',baked, the
4-H Grace was sung in
Unison accompanied, by Mrs.
Coleman.
The next meeting will be
held in 2 weeks at the
leaders - Dorothy Medd
where' members will make
and judge tea biscuits and
hopefully learn to sing rather
than recite theA-H pledge.

Ontario dairymen should
launch campaigns against
warbles before December 1.
"Treating dairy cattle for
warbles in October or
November is more than 90
percent effective," says
Harold Clapp, Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food dairy cattle specialist.
,- It prevents stress, damage
to meat and hide, and milk
loss caused by gadding,
"The warble fly's life cy-
cle. can be broken now. This
insect can't be controlled in
the summer when it's in
flight."
Several.. insecticides are
available for warble treat-
ment. Grubex, Co-op Warble
Killer, Neguvon, and Spot-
ton are systemics, 'which
penetrate the animal's skin,
and are carried by the
bloodstream throughout the
body.
"Treat young cattle accor-,
ding to weight" suggests
, Mr. Clapp. "Never treat lac-
tating cows or cows within
ten day of freshening,
because the bloodstream
would contain the systemic,
and the milk would be con-
tatainated."

turer's directions. An insuf-

causing a buildup of toxins.
Stiffness and paralysis may
result. If this happens, keep
the animal moving, and con-
sult a veterinarian.
Mr. Clapp, suggests
treating cattle late in the
day, so they can be observed
the next morning for possi-
ble side effects.
Treatment should be
avoided from December to
March. The grubs may have
migrated to the spinal
column, and treatment may,
cause swelling or paralysis.
Besides killing warble
grubs, systemics provide ex-
cellent lice control. The first
treatment kills all feeding
lice, but unhatched eggs re-
main. A second treatment,
three weeks later, kills the
remaining lice.
Warble control was
promoted widely last year
by the Ministry of
Agriculture and Food, and
industry'officials. Last year,
warble infestation in On-
tario cattle declined from 33
to 10 percent, according to
the Meat Packers' Council
of Canada.
To eliminate losses from
this pest, dairymen must
continue, warble control.
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food personnel plan warble
meetings across-Ontario-this
, fall.
