By Leo N. Seltennght 4-H Round-Up I think everyone enjoyed 4-H 1 Round-Up. especially the boys who found out how to use the telephone. It seems that the telephone is an easy way to get to talk to the i girls. The 4-H Round-Up delegates are I on the basis of 4-H achieverjwnts. including number of projects, quality of project work, offices in 4-H work held and cooperativeness in helping out in the 4-H program. Ask any of those who attended Round-Up and I think you’ll find they enjoyed it. as well as learning new things . about 4-H and meeting other people. 1 Hog Cholera Eradication Committee at Work

The Indiana hog cholera eradication committee has adopted a set of principles it plans to use in building a recommended program aimed at stamping out this most costly disease of the swine industry. The committee is made up of swine producers, veterinarians, I market operators, packers, educators, animal health regulartory officials and farm organization representatives. Dr. F. A Hall, Purdue University veterinarian and a member of the committee points out annual losses from the disease amount to about S4O million a year. Without protection in a major swine producing state such as Indiana the disease could seriously affect farm income, he adds. In addition to Dr. Hall. Purdue members of the committee are Richard A. Hollandbeck, extension swine specialist, and Dr. Don Gustafson, staff member of the school of veterinary science and medicine. Principles adopted by the committee, regulate and control the salte of usage of fully ■virule virus for vaccination, Continue to prohibit the feeding of raw garbage to’ swine. Madatory reporting of known or suspect outbreaks <of hog cholera. Strict quarantine and veterinary supervision of infected premises. Encourage the vaccination of more hogs for the prevention of hog cholera. Continue to require all swine moving through concentration points, sales barns, stockyards and fairs to have proper certification of vaccination except those hogs going to immediate slaughter. 'Transport swine in cleaned conveyances. Intensify and amplify hog cholera research. Start a long

a

range publication education program about the disease. Planting Delays Cause Crop Changes Delays in spring planting caused by unfavorable weather call for crop and variety reappraisals. Occasional poor stands of corn and sybeans from early planting or inject attacks create the same problem because of the need to replant. Very early June planting calls for very little change from fall season varieties for any section of the state, but delays beyond the first week of June generally require the use of earlier maturing varieties for best results. Fortunately Indiana seed dealers and distributors are reasonably well supplied with desirable shorter seasoned corn hybrids and soybeans. Where extreme delays are encountered in June planting, farmers generally report that they are better satisfied with soybeans than with corn. Soybean varieties planted late reduce the number of days required to go to maturity while even early cprn hybrids still renuire their accustomed number of days. Low temperature damage following the cold wave of the second week of May has been apparent on many fields of wheat and oats killing the lowest leaves. Tips of higher leaves have yellowed. The same cold wave was unfavorable to an adequate supply of soil nitrogen even where fields had- been topd ress ed. Occasionally, leaf diseases have contributed to an unthrifty appearance. Red leaf spread by plant lice or aphids last year can occur again in oats if these insects are abundant. Farmers concerned about the appearance of any grain field can wait until mid-June before adequately appraising the prospects. Soybean varieties adapted for mid-June seeding are available throughout the state. No other crop is as well suited for extensive use for late June and early July as soybeans.

Pasture Conditions You may be interested in. this report on pastures. Conditions of pastures in the U.S. were more favorable on May 11 than either a year ago or the 10-year average for that date. In most of the western cattle states, conditions were roughly comparable to those of last year. Given continued good rainfall and grazing conditions

during the summer, it seems likely that cow and calf slaughter will remain close to last year and the number of cattle on farms and ranches will increase at least as much as in 1959. However, the continued expansion and the record number of cattle on ranches in almost all western states make the ranchers increasingly dependent on weather conditions. If drought should hit large areas, cutbacks in breeding herds would be expected. Spray Apply malathion sprays in early June to the ornamantel trees and shrubs which are susceptible to the attack of scale insects. Some of the ornamentels commonly attacked by scale insects are lilac, junipers and euonymus. Calendar June 13—4-H Junior Leader meeting. June 17—4-H Dairy Tour. June 20—4-H Camp planning meeting.

The work is being done by approximately 2 reporters who are hired on a seasonal basis and specially trained for acreage measurement work. Mr. Garboden urges cooperation of all farmers in assisting the reporters with their work. Farmers he said, can help by seeing that takes are in place and plantings are within the staked area on premeasured farms and also by having someone who is familiar with the farm available to help the Reporter if the operator is away. Spot checking will be done by the county office and state personnel. Crops being measured at this time in the county are adjusted wheat acreage and Conservation Reserve. The job of the reporters
