Controlling
Breeding Season
Key
Beef Cattle
Management
Deeision
The only way to prevent late
calves is to take the bulls out of the
pasture and gain control of the
breeding and calving seasons, says a
livestock specialist with the Texas
Agricultural Extension Service.
“Calves bom late in the season
weigh less at weaning and reduce
profits dramatically,” said Dr.
Randall Grooms, livestock
specialist at the Texas A&M
University Agricultural Research
and Extension Service at Overton.
“Well managed, profitable herds get
calves on the ground early in the
season and control the breeding
program to increase profits.”
For those producers who do not
have a controlled breeding program,
Grooms suggests that now is the best
time to start.
“Shortening the calving season is
a relatively simple process,”
Grooms said. “The ideal calving
season is 60 to 90 days ahead of a
lush forage season in either the fall,
winter or early spring. This gives
cows maximum nutrition for milk
production and rebreeding, and the
calves will be old enough to handle
the mother’s milk when the lush
forage season begins.”
“By separating the bulls from the -
cows, an additional month each
year, the producer can gradually
reduce the breeding season to the
desired 60 to 90-day period,” Grooms
said.
Daily bag limit is 12 mourning,
white-winged and white-tipped
doves inthe aggregate, including no
more than two white-winged and
two white-tipped doves. Possession
limit is twice the daily bag limit.
Shooting hours for mourning doves
are one-half hour before sunrise to
sunset in all zones.
ORGANIZING
HOME BUSINESS
CENTERS
Plan a home business center as
the first step towards a better family
records system. The most
important part of such a center is a
specific place of convenient access,
according to Jill D. Pronger, County
Extension Agent-Home Economics
In other words, boxes in the attic or
garage really do not qualify. Having
a specific spot helps to insure that
receipts, canceled checks, forms or
bills will find their way to the
appropriate place. Elaborate
equipment is really unnecessary in
establishing a home business center.
Of first importance is a filing
cabinet. Its function is even more
important than a desk or lamp or
calculator-add these items later. In
order for the filing cabinet to help, a
Texas Parks and Wildlife
Department officials are reminding
dove hunters that the special white-
winged dove season, traditionally
held during the first two weekends of
September in the Special White-
winged Dove Hunting Area along
the Rio Grande, will be limited to
one weekend this year.
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
officials restricted the season to two
days because of lower bird numbers
caused by the December freeze that
destroyed many citrus orchards in
the Lower Rio Grande Valley.
The two-day season will be Sept. 1-
2.
The rest of the state should have a
pretty good mourning dove season
SPECIAL WHITEWING SEASON
LIMITED TO TWO DAYS
because of adequate rainfall in
many areas of the state.
This year’s mourning dove
seasons will be: North Zone, Sept. 1-
Nov. 9; Central Zone, Sept. 1-Oct. 24
and Jan. 5-20; and South Zone, Sept.
20-Nov. 12 (ends Nov. 10 in the
Special White-winged Dove Area)
and Jan. 5-20.

Corps Of Engineers
Proposes New Shoreline
Management Fee SchedtH
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
has published proposed revisions to
its Shoreline Managment Program from $30 to a total of $75 for five
fee schedule in the Federal Register.
This begins a 45-day public review
period that will end on Sept. 23,
1990. The proposed fee schedule will
apply to certain Fort Worth District $400 plus $15 per year periodic
lakes which have existing shoreline
management programs:
Grapevine, Lewisville, Proctor,
Whitney, and Lake O’ the Pines.
The proposed revisions will
increase the cost of shoreline
management permits for current
and future permit holders. This will
enable the Federal Government to
recover a greater portion of the
actual cost of issuing shoreline
management permits.

The children, grandchildren,
nieces, nephews and friends of the
late Dee and Mary Overstreet met at
the Reunion Center in De Leon
August 4 and 5,1990, for their annual
two-day reunion, with 69 in
attendance.
Ail enjoyed a sandwich supper on
Saturday, with visiting and music by
family members. A worship service
was arranged by Rev. Eddie
Overstreet of Ponca City,
Oklahoma, for Sunday morning at
11:00, with Rev. Roger Foote of
Maple, TX, bringing the message.
A delicious lunch was spread at
noon, then more visiting, picture
taking and music. All enjoyed the
time together and plan to meet back
at the Reunion Center on August 3
and 4 of 1991.
Those attending were Johnny and
Rita Overstreet of Grand Prairie;
Sammy, Norma, Chris and Crystal
Eddleman of Grand Prairie; Eddie
and Vesta Lee Overstreet of Ponca

usable filing system is essential.
Avoid filing everything under the
heading of “money” or
“documents” or “miscellaneous.”
Also, avoid the other extreme of
separating categories for every
item-such one for Social Security,
one for employment records, and
one for gas bills. Try to develop
more workable qptegories. For
example, some categories may
contain tax-deductible items—such
as health expenses, contributions, or
interest payments. Other
categories may include non-
deductible items such as food,
housing expenses, clothing and
transportation costs Work at
developing some filing system with
meaningful categories appropriate
for your individual needs. Time
invested toward effective financial
records is well spent.
