Devotional was conducted by Ethel Meyers. Gladys Schade read a peom "A Sure Way For a Happy Day." Special music was provided by Rosemary Ferguson on the piano and the accordion. The topic was "Persons are Gifts." They gathered in groups and discussed how we can be gifts to others. Each group had a spokesman and it was very informative the dif- ferent ways these gifts can be shared. What kind of gift are we to others? Do others see things in us we are not aware of? Do the wrappings compare with the inside? The meeting closed with - prayer and the hymn "Take My Life and Let it Be." Red roses were given and Happy Birthday sung to Mrs. Mary Hey and Mrs. Dorothy Koehler who recently celebrated their 80th bir- thdays. Donna Greb presided for the business.

Fanners sh 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- taminated." Apply an adequate dosage, according to the manufac- turer's directions, An insuf- ficient application kills the warble grubs too slowly, Citizens News, November 9, 1978 Page 5 RE-ELECT: HERBTURKHEIM TO THE HURON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION REPRESENTING Hay Township, Hensall, Zurich and the North Half of Dashwood • 6 Years experience on the present board • Served 2 years as Chairman - 5 Years on Executive Committee • Served 2 years as a Director on the Ontario Public School Trustees' Association • 6 Years perfect attendance at regular board meetings LET EXPERIENCE KEEP WORKING FOR YOU!

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 colurnn, 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.
