One of the legumes that can
be grown in Union county is red
clover. It has similar qualities of
alfalfa or sweet clover in that
it is a toil builder. This year
dealers' stocks of this seed at 9.1
million pounds, are 29 per cent
below last .year and 24 per cent
below average. Actually we are
sure a number of Union county
farmerswould be in a goou posi

they plan to use Endothal for the
control of chealgrass and sheep
sorrel in grass fields. The mater

The information we receiveu
from one plot is rather small, but
it is the closest we have come to
finding a material to control the
two weeds.
Those interested in using the
material-should wail for addition

NO TEDDY, THIS-Just about able to reach the paw of this
male Aluskmi brown bear is three-loot Bruce anerman ot
Beachwood Village, Ohio. The enormous bear, which stands
eight feet tall, was recently placed on display at the Cleveland
Museum of Natural History. It was killed in Alaska, the only
Place whore' hears of such size are found. j
might have about troleno and Co
Ral. .' -. ' - '
Troleno is, administered in the
form of a bolus and Co-Ral ap
plied a", a sDray. In their pres
ent formulation each bolus con
tains 15 grams of active ingred
ients and one bolus should be
used for each 300 pounds of an
Mpal body weight. Boluses arc
"lotted for splitting in half. The
',-eatment for a 450 puund animal
iould then be one and one-half
boluses. The animal weight
range and the dosage in the num
ber of boluses .. to. use ' will be
'ound on tho manufacturer's la
bel. Operators should be careful
ji ascertain that the . animal re
ceives the proper dosage. It is
2sy tp under dose. W.e feel that
n some of our trials last year we
did not get as good .results as we
should have, because we under
estimated the weight of tho ani
aal. It was also quite evident in
jome of our trials that, certain
of the animals regurgitated the
boluses. Care should be exercised
not ony to insure retention of the
bolus by the animal but also to
prevent injury to the animal
when making the application.
Co-Ral is applied as a spray.
The recommended concentration
is 0.5 per cent. Co-Ral comes as
a 25 per cent wettablc powder.
To prepare 100 gallons of spray
nt the recommended 0.5 per cent
concentration use. 16 pounds of
ibc 25 per cent wettablc powder.
!t will require about one gallon
of spray to treat each animal.
The animal should be . sprayed
thoroughly over . its entire body
pot just in the back area. Remem
ber the spray must come' in con
tact with the skin. We leel for
this reason that it is important
that high pressure, in the neigh
borhood of 350-400 pounds per
square inch be used.
Grub control treatments should
be made soon after the heel fly
season is over. Generally speak
ing, the treatments could be
made in Oregon any lime after
Sept. 1. Because of cattle man
agement practices followed by
many operators it would be diffi
cult to treat until October or
early November. Although . we
hiive had good . results treating
cattle late in November we feel
that November 15 should be
about the latest date that cattle
should be treated.
Bob would like to point out
that he did observe reaction of
cattle to treatments of both Tro
lene and Co-Ral in two herds dur
ing last year's demonstrations.
On both occasions the reactions
were described essentially as stif
fness in the hind legs, bloat,
yours, and copious salivation. A
good proportion of the animals
treated were reported to have re
acted in each herd. Duration of
reaction was 24 to 48 hours, and
the calves quickly went back on
feed. Response similar to these
had been reported in trials from
other stales. Previously such re
actions have been believed to
have been associated with failure
of cattle to consume enough wa
tti either before or after treat
ment or with animals under stress
from some cause. More recent in
formation indicates that reaction
is likely to occur when treatments
arc made late in the season at a
time when grubs are making
their wav toward the back region.
