Three could own one for Saves Labor If the farmers built iheir own unloading wagons, and they can, three farmers could own a field harvester at less cost than for conventional equipment. The forage harvester is worth extra money, economists claim. It saves labor, makes work easier, and enables farmers to save crops they might lose if they had only convential equipment.

They figure on a farm with 80 acres in crops, a farmer would save 90 to 135 man hours a year. i making grass silage is much easier with this equipment, the man with a field harvester may make more grass silage. This could mean an extra saving in feed value that sometimes amounts to 40 per cent of the hay ciop, they claim. day, August 25.

Admitted Free There seems to be considerable difference of opinion as to the control of flies this season using the chemicals generally recommended in years gone Some people seem to think that flies become immune to DDT, or methoxychlor, but Crom all government statistics we cannot find where any immunity from DDT has developed. There are certain varieties of flies that are not affected by this material, such as thc hornfly. That fly however is found mostly in pastures and not around thc barns. If a fly spray has been applied to screens and outside surfaces, the rainy weather has probably washed it off, and you arc getting no effects of the chemical.

The early spring with continued warm and moist weather has made it ideal for flies in 1949. Flies became numerous at a very early date, and the wet barnyards have made good breeding conditions for them to multiply rapidly. Some farmers claim that some of the insecticides made have not helped too much. In one barnyard it was estimated that up to nearly 1,000 fly maggots and 1,000 fly pupae were found per cubic foot of piled manure. Since a fly generation can be completed in about one week of hot summer weather, and the population increases several thousand per cent during a single generation, we can see why flies are abundant where ideal breeding areas are so convenient for them.

Began in Uses of insecticides have been recommended to begin during the month of May. Many farmers did not spray until late June or July. Buildings than dairy barns should also be sprayed. These include such as chicken and hog houses, outdoor toilets, and similar places where flies abound. All cattle and other livestock should be sprayed at two or three week intervals, beginning in May or early June.

Clear Up Barn Yards Therefore, before we begin to condemn the fly sprays, let us see that we have all our barn yards clean of manure piles, and try and eliminate all possible breeding places for flies to germinate. Since the government does not sanction DDT, some of the other fly sprays should be tried. Use a good knock-down spray on the cattle, in the barn, and be sure to spray the other buldings, such as poultry house, hog houses, and other places where flies may breed with DDT, or methoxychlor. After spraying, if you still have trouble with flies you had better use a quick knock-down spray to keep the files off the cattle at milking time. But as long as we have moist humid weather we will probably have a large number of flies.
