It’s preity hard concentrating on a job of mowing just after you’ve stirred up a nest of bumblebees. Likewise, a cow has a hard time concenfratmg on her job of producing milk while pestered by heel flies. Heel flies bother cows in the summer, but you can do a big part of the job of controlling them now. In the sunfmer, flies lay eggs on the cow’s hair. These hatch into maggots which form grubs under the skin. The grubs hatch into flics in the spring. Whether you know the heel fly by that name or some other, and wheTßer you call them grubs, warbles, “wolves” or what, they are the same pest. By destroying grubs in January or IJebruqr,, you cut down the fly population next year. Treatment generally recommended is to apply to the backs of cattle with a stiff brush, a wash consisting of 12 ounces of derris powder and two ounces of soap flakes in a gallon of water. Hand dusting is another simple way to do the job. Use a tin can. with ten to 15 holes punched in the bottom. Thoroughly mix a pound of ground rotenonebearing root with a pound of wettable sulphur. Sprinkle the mix over the animal's back and rub it in gently with your hand. 'Hie Extension Service. University of Idaho, Moscow, Idaho, covers this subject in War Circular No. 5. Farmers’ Bulletin No. 1596 from the USDA, Washington, 1). C., also discusses it in detail. Z"/ The very first point of the 1945 Eight Point dairy program is “Crow an abundance of high quality roughage.” Roug’.iage is just about the most important part of a cow’s diet and the higher the quality, the less cost to the owner. With high quality roughage, less grain supplement is needed. This is quite a few weeks ahead of plowing time, but there is no better time to my mind to get down to definite plans on your roughage program. First of all you need to figure howmuch roughage youHl want—how many tons of silage and hay. Tliat is determined by the number and breed of cows in your herd. Dairy experts say that cows should have between 20 and 35 pounds of silage daily plus 10 to 15 pounds of good liay.

i Early Liquidation Os National Debt Urged Treasury Secretary Favors Strong Tax Washington. Jan 11 il’l’i —Secretary of tin Tr usury Henry MorgenUiau Jr.. said today h<; j’avored . a continued ‘ strong tax gtruciure" after the war to liquidate the national dr.br n«t soon as possible. He told a press conference he | wanted to reduce substailliqJly eonie axes in order to allow business to expand and develop. but that taxa- generally should remain high cotnp.i: d with pre-war levels The treasury. Moigi'iilhau said, is not ye; ready to reveal any details on its current post-war tax r.udies. He «aid details would come trom the joint houoe and atiiate committee with which treasury : officials are working. 4 Jleaflwhile, Chairman Walter F. ' George.

Alfalfa wins all roughage popularity contests hands down and 1 hope youare planning on an ample supply. An c'ow is a pretty good way to figure. Alfalfa is highest in protein and grows well in nearly every region. If you use clover, timothy, lespedeza or some other hay crop, you’ll have to plant a greater' acreage than if you use alfalfa. Illinois figures 600 lbs. of digestible protein per acre of alfalfa, 180 per acre of lespedeza and 240 per acre of red clover, so you see how much more actual food there is in alfalfa. Circular 502 from the Extension Service, University of Urbana. 111., has a table showing the feed value of hay crops per acre, and I suggest you write for a copy.* Owl# i ’ Right here in the middle of winter is the best time I know of, also, to take a 100ß at last year's pasture and « | figure out how tp make it a better pasture in 191,>. J \ A friend of mine down Mississippi way says a pasture jist a place where a cow can fill di,er stomach in an hour or two aiyd can spend the next few hours taking a nap. When she does this, she’s working for you. If she has to eat all day long just to k<Fi*p alive, she is not on a real pasture. What most permanent pastures need is a proper mixture of differefit ! grasses, plus lime and fertilizer. You *’ ] can do yourself, your cows and the® ; national milk program a lot of good by deciding now on the right mixture, ordering seed and getting set to grow the kind of pasture which will bring you greatest return. You’ll find exactly the type of mixture suitable to your land recommended in Circular 465 issued by the Extension Service, University of Illinois, Urbana, Ill.* For rich, well drained soils it suggests 6 pounds of timothy, 7 pounds of Kentucky blue, 3 lbs. of red clover and 2 lbs. of white clover. Special mixtures are suggested for various types of soil. *NOTI: Th«r« uiuaHy 1i a 5c chary* for pamphlsh moilad 10 nor-r»s>d«nt> of o »tat», but poaibly your own stat* has a f re* pamphlet on th* sam* subjtct.

SIXTH ARMY (Continued From Page I) 20 miles.) ’ Though the main advance south across the Luzon plains was | meeting only sporadic small arms 1 resistance, American patrols and spotting planes reported artillery tire in the hills north of San : Fabian and warships were hurl-, ! ing salvoes of shells into the Ml'OA. Other ■ forces, expanding the bejjghheud along the coast to the, a‘A‘st. y/ached the mouth of the Agno liver, six miles beyond Lingayen. and came under artillery fire from the foothills of the Zatnhales mountains. The speed of the advance south was such that one division commander was forced to order his vanguards to slow up because they were moving too fast fifr communications and supplies to keep pace. The Calmay river, one to. two and a half miles inland from the beacheheads, and ; only formidable water barrier north of the Agno. was forced in the early hours of the invasion i along a broad front. Despite the initial lack of resistance. however, the Japanese! teVerishly were rushing up troops, I armor and supplies from southern Luzon under a deadly barrage of , i bombs, shells and bullets from American carrier and land-based planes. Whole columns of vehicles were blasted into flaming wrecki age and at least three of the enemy's main bridges north of .Manila were knocked out. American aircraft roamed the skies unchallenged. o Draft Board vs. Mumps Augusta, Kan. — (UP) — Frank Shaffer of Lecn is a problem to his draft board. The hist time Shaffer was called for service he was in quarantine because his wife had th > mumps. On the second call, Sheffer's baby had the mumps. The third time the board summoned him. Shaffer had the mumps. The board reports there is a fourth call coming up' meat. That, he insisted. is the only way to -stimulate productive capacity—which means join—and buying power. Eccles discussed bis postwar tax views in the current i.-iue of rhe federal ic-setve bulletin. He advoc;.:cd drastic reduction of excise taxes, lowering of personal income taxts in the lower brackets and later reductions in corporate taxea.
