JO PROFIT IN FEEDING
BATTLE GRUBS
FARMERS WARNED
There 1* no profit in feeding
.ttle grubs and they can be very
ffectlvely controlled, says James
Deeft assistant extension en-
[Ologist of Texas A&M College.
The losses caused by cattle
;rubs are borne by the livestock
reducer and only the livestock
iucer can reduce them, adds
These losses annually

could be added to the national
farm Income if cattle producers
would use the following control
measures.'
He recommends the use of a
power sprayer—with a pressure of
200 to *98 pounds. Lower pressures
■decrease the effectiveness of the
treatment, he says. Spray the ani-
mals In a chute and hold the noz-
oo farther than four inches
from the backs of the animals. It
Is beat, he says, to use a full gallon
of spray on each animal and from

ings, Texas A&M College, suggests
a few for starters, here they are:
Check the floor furnace burn-
ers, controls and plumbing before
you light It, says Allen, to make
sure there Is no escaping gas to
cause explosions. Do the same
thing on other gas heaters and it
Is a good Idea to vent them. Vents
will eliminate the problem of
moisture condensing on the walls.
Check the fireplace and chimney
for loose mortar or cracks and If
repairs are needed, make them be-
fore the first fire is started.
If you plan to add insulation to
make the house warmer this win-
ter, now is the time. Insulation,
properly Installed, will cut your
fuel bills come winter, says Allen.
Check the gutters and down
spouts to make sure that leaves,
trash and dirt don’t have them
stopped up. If they are clogged,
i spilling over and seepage can
cause damage outside and inside.
Better give the roof the once over
and if repairs are needed, make
them before the winter rains set
in. Allen says that nails in metal
roofs will become loose In hot
weather and may even come out
and he suggests that you check
the nails. A coat of asphalt roof-
ing cement will usually take care
of the leaks in the roof that have
resulted from cracks or small
holes.
Be sure that rain water drains
away from the buildings instead of
under them. Freezing can cause
the foundations to heave or crack
and this means a big repair Job
later.
Periodic checks and proper main-
tenance will help keep down
building costs and will save need-
less repairs besides saving valuable
time, says Allen. Check up and see
what is needed and you’ll be ready
for winter—if you do the jobs now.
Don’t overlook the importance
of planning for future electricity
needs or uses in the new farm
buildings or in those that may be
remodeled. Be sure that you’re
using the right size wire and that
plenty of circuits are included to
take care of future needs.
