TUfS PAUL JULIE BLOAT CONTROL An additive for use in the control of frothy bloat in cattle foraging on legume pastures has been cleared for use by the Food and Drug Administration. The pertinent information is as follows. The additive is considered a under the terms of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Name: Poloxalene a liquid nonionic surfactant of the po- loxypropylene polyoxyethy- lene type. Manufacturer: Smith, Kline and French Laboratories, Philadelphia, Pa.

Use: Top dressing for cattle feed to control frothy bloat in cattle foraging on legume pastures at a dosage of 10 gm. per head per day for cattle weighing up to one thousand pounds and 20 gm. per head per day for cattle weighing over one thousand pounds. The new drug is available under the trade name Dr. C.

M. Patterson, extension veterinarian, states that of the reports received from the field regarding the use of poloxalene as described in the clearance indicate that the drug is effective in reducing bloat to a NEW LAWN GRASS No- Mow is a selection of ber- mudagrass obtained from Florida with the designation B- 137. It has been under experimentation for three years at Texas University. The grass has a darker green color than common bermudagrass. Under experimental conditions in full sunlight at College Station, it has tended to have a somewhat hummocky or bumpy appearance, which may be objectionable in some cases.

Under certain environmental conditions, it produces an abundance of seedheads, which requires mowing in order to maintain a satisfactory appearance. When grown in full sunlight, it has not required the frequency of mowing that common bermudagrass has. No- Mow is not as aggressive in covering as common bermu- da of St. Augustinegrass, thus it could not be expected to become established in an already established lawn of either of these two grasses. As a result, it should be established in a relatively clean seedbed.

It would not be recommended to plant this ber- rnuda in an area where St. Augustine is now growing. Under the experimental conditions used at No-Mow has shown tolerance to low light conditions somewhat similar to St. Augustine. Where the light was reduced to about 30 percent of actual sunlight, appearance of No- Mow was better than full sunlight.

The will not under dense shade from trees where it receives no direct sunlight. Under other conditions where the grass has received some direct sun, either mornim: or afternoon, it has tended to grow fairly satisfactorily in shady areas. Cold tolerance has not been established for the grass; however, it survives the winter as far north as College Station. This variety of bermuda must be established irom vegetative material. Homeowners or persons interested in the grass are cautioned to consider its characteristics and qualities proceeding to plant a sizable area in it.

PRUSSIC ACID IN SORGHUMS Frost and freezine Troop 121, Decatur Boy Scouts left Saturday morning at 5 a.m. for a 25 mile canoe trip down the Brazos River. W. A. Hughes, the institutional representative and Sam Harrison of Wichita Falls were volunteers to make the trip.

Don Dodge, Jack Morgan and Ted Schroeder helped with the transportation and George Long furnished the bus. Twenty scouts made the trip which concludes the requirements for the 50 Miles Award, 25 Miles on Land and 25 Miles on Water. The scouts are Gary Cocanougher, Carter Hughes, Jim Morgan, Jeffery Nunneley, Wayne East, Ronald Saunders, Paul Schroeder, Robert Throneberry, Mike Lewis, Mike Smith, Russel Brandon, Johnny Dunn, Don Dodge, Clifford Benjamin, Clyde Benjamin, Claud Clay, Leslie Gage, James Faulkner, Billy Ray Jackson, Earl Winebrenner and Scoutmaster, Earl Nunneley. The scouts put their canoes in at Possum Kingdom Dam, had breakfast on the bank of the Brazos and then shoved off for an unforgettable adventure down the winding, rough, low mountains of Palo Pinto County. This is an area where nature is unchanged from the time Indians were the only ones to enjoy such beauty.

Each canoe had two scouts in it and all the supplies and equipment for two boys. They were responsible for their canoe and equipment. The group made 8 miles by noon and put in at a sand bar island for lunch where the scouts made fires and cooked their food. After lunch they climbed one of the Brazos cliffs, Crawford Mountain, which affords a wonderful view of the Brazos. They spent the night at Eagle reek and on Sunday morning had services on the banks of the river before starting the 12 miles to Worth Ranch.

They arrived about 3 p.m., loaded the bus and started the trip home. October is a fine time to make a trip down the Brazos. The river was low and the flies, mosquitoes, ticks and snakes all gone. The nights are cool and on this trip there was a heavv frost. weather will soon be widespread and with the change in weather plant rowth is affected.

When the growth of all members of the Sor- family, including John- songrass, sudan, milo, forage sortiiums and all hybrids, is stopped by frost, they sometimes develop a high prussic acid content and a hazard to livestock. Certain chemical changes occur in the frost-wilted plants, and are responsible for the prussic acid development. The poison acts quickly and can kill an animal within a very short time after the damaged plant is eaten. Whether a poisoned animal can be saved depends upon how soon a veterinarian can Liet to it. Frosted Johnsongrass or sorghum should not be grazed until the damaged plants are as dry as good quality hay or for at least a week after the frost.

If it is ready to cut for hay before the frost, it may be cut immediately provided adequate curing time is allowed. Silage made from frost-damaged plants is sate as soon as the ensiling process is complete. TOMI CURIMI! A Universal Picture WED. Carload CUM imCHIBMf!
