I'm making a final plea
for the return of the beef
and forage survey cards
sent to a sampling of
Cherokee County produ-
cers to be used in estima-
ting progress being made
in beef and forage produc-
tion in the county. If you
haven't returned youers, I
hope you'll take a few
minutes to fill it out and
mail it to us. We'll be
summarizing the infor-
mation in the very near
future.
Ticks are getting home
owners attention early this
year. I've had several calls
already wanting to know
what to use to control ticks

in the outside areas around
the home.
If you live where there
are lots of squirrels, rab-
bits, dogs, or other animals
that continauily cross your
yard, you've probably got a
year round problem. How-
ever treating an area 30 to
40 feet wide around the
home will often catch most
of the are where children
play or where there is
family activity.
If ther are other play or
activity areas, you may
also wish to treat them.
Diazinon or Carbaryl
(Sevin) dust or spray appli-
ed according to directions
on the label should give
good control of ticks. Seve-
ral treatments may be
need over an extended peri-
od though to keep the tick
population under control.

A great deal of interest
has been generated lately
concerning foreign invest-
ment in agricultural lands.
Information supplied by
Dr. Ronald Knutson, one of
our Extension Economist,
indicates that the best data
available nationally is dat-
ed 1975 when 4.9 million
acres of land in plots over
200 acres belonged to for-
eign investors. This
amounted to less than 0.5
percent of the private land
in the U.S. Estimates com-
piled since that date to the
present indicates the total
may now be around 6.3
million acres, still less than
1 percent of private U.S.
land holdings.
The following has no re-
lationship to foreign owner-
ship; but a recent USDA
report showed the catego-
ries of domestic ownership.
"Private individuals and
corporations own about 60
percent of the 2.3 billion
acres of U.S. land, while
the rest is owned by Fede-
ral, State, and local
governments and Ameri-
can Indians. About 7 to 8
million farm, ranch, and
forest owners hold close to
95 percent of all privately
held land, while the 2 per-
cent of U.S. land used for
housing is owned by be-
tween 47 and 58 million
people. Commercial, indus-
trial, recreational and
other use account for the
remaining three percent."
"Educational programs
conducted by the Texas
Agricultural Extension
Service serve people of all
ages regardless of socio-
economic level, race, sex,
religion, or national ori-
gin."

FAITH TEACHES KINDNESS TO ALL LIVING CREATURES
I any conscientious parents drill their children
in the use of "please", "thank you" and the
various forms of good conduct toward human
beings, and yet are unaware that they may then
go outside and mistreat the family pet or chase
lizards around a nearby field to catch and
harass them Unchecked, this becomes an
apparently acceptable outlet for rebellion and
frustration The proper early training, reinforced
by your own example, should include kindness
toward all of God's living creatures The Church
and Sunday school of your choice can do much
to instill this benevolent feeling, which will be
reflected also in their attitude toward their fellow
human beings and will set the pattern for the
conduct of their entire lives They will realize
the importance of all life in the wonder of God's
creation
