Somewhere on the list of marriage plant, the couple ought to reserve a slot for financial planning. Finances are an important part of the marriage relationship. When a counle marries, each brings to the marriage attitude values Eating, TV related Even though TV does not con tain calorics it is fattening, espe cially for children. The more time children spend watching TV, the more snacks they will eat, and more of those snacks are likely to be foods advertised on TV. Foods advertised heavily on chil dren's television programs are cal orically dense foods such as sugared cereals, candy bars, cakes, cookies, and soda pop. Unless they do a lot of running jumping, swimming, walking or are otherwise very active physically, children won't use the calories con tained in such foods. To complicate matters, stars of children's TV programs are rarely obese themselves. As a result, children may not associate eating the prominently advertised, high calorie foods with overweight. A study conducted on 13,000 children found that obesity increased one to three percent for each hour of TV watched each day. This was true even though the obese and non-obese children spent the same number of hours in other activities with friends. Many children spend a great deal of time watching television. A recent survey of children found that they watch TV 24 hours per week. Children in the study, age 6 to 1 1 , spent almost the same amount of time in front of the TV set as in school. If you are concerned about your child's weight, pay attention to the foods he or she requests or buys, the amount of physical activity the child gets, and the kinds of snacks Planning "dream home" There's much speculation that the "American Dream" is out-of-reach for most Americans. While no two people define the "Dream" exactly the same way, there is general agreement that it includes employ ment opportunities, good nutrition, stable families and home owner ship. Let's take a look at how the housing part of the American Dream has evolved, and teaching about Leather advice As leather ages, it becomes sof ter and more comfortable to wear. Topgrain leather is the outer layer of skin and is the most dura ble, most expensive and easiest to finish.

Take time to communicate with child The methods many parents use to get children to do things, or to stop doing certain things, fall into five categories of techniques. Some parents may successfully shift through each of these catego ries while trying to get little Joel to put his wagon away. First there is the demanding par ent. He or she gives a simple posi tive command: "Joel, I want you to put your wagon away."

These attitudes, values and feelings of wife and husband may be differ ent. It takes time, effort and com munication to arrive at a common understanding. A couple should estimate their the child eats. Since many behav iors related to obesity are also related to the amount of time spent watching TV, it may be easier to monitor the child's TV viewing time than concentrating on count ing calories Insecticides Cattle grubs cost the beef indus try thousands fo dollars annually. Losses result from poor gain by infested animals or from paralysis which may occur when grubs migrate through the spinal canal. Occasional ly secondary infection may develop in grub emergence holes. On slaugh ter animals grub damage in loin muscles causes trim loss and down grading of carcasses. Hides of grub by cattle are prepared with holes in the thickest, most vulnerable part of the hide. Life History The adults are known as heel flies or warble flies. They appear in late spring or early summer. Two species are involved. The northern cattle grub lays its eggs singly on hairs on the lower part of the animal's body. The common cattle grub attaches her eggs in the same areas, but may attach as many as a dozen eggs to a single hair. Adult flies do not feed so they live only three to ten days. The eggs hatch in about four days and the tiny larvae crawl down the hair to the skin where they use their mouthparts and enzy matic secretions to penetrate the skin. History: Land ownership was a powerful magnet to many immi grants in the nation's pioneering ways. Individuals and families tra-1 veled west for free land, particu larly after passage of the Home stead Act of 1862. The land was theirs if they lived on it for three years. This usually included build ing shelter for protection from the elements, hostile humans, and ani mals. The Homestead Act formal ized procedures used since the first Europeans arrived in North America-National legislation passed in the 1 930's greatly affected how present day Americans feel about housing. The intent of most of this legisla tion was to provide jobs and stimu late the economy; the result was affordable housing for many fami lies. Perhaps the most significant change was the introduction of the amortized mortgage. For the first time, many families could become homeowners by paying a fixed monthly amount for principal and interest on loans. Before, most homes sold for cash. r"nnorps established a eoal of "...a suitable living environment for every reauests with words that children learn to turn off. There is the negative parental approach in which the parent tells the child what not to do: "Joel, don't leave your wagon in the yard." In this approach, however, the child isn't told what the parent wants him or her to go ahead and do. A child's life is full of don'ts. Children need to know what to do in addi tion to what not to do.

No family has enough money to do everything or buy everything. Priorities have to be set and cho ices have to be made as the finan cial plan is developed. While agree ment on the financial priorities may be difficult, lack of agreement will create future difficulties. As the financial plan is deve loped, the couple needs to discuss whose income will be used for what expenses. A couple may choose to pool all their earnings and use this "family income" for family expen ditures and family savings. Or, a couple may choose to each oool a part of their income for household expenses and family sav can control The erubs suffer verv hich natu ral mortality during their devel opment because of the host's natu ral resistance. Cattle of all breeds are the normal host, but occasion ally horses are attacked. Calves and yearlings tend to have more grubs than older stock. Little is known about the larvae after it enters the animal's body but in one or two months the first common cattle grubs have migrated to just beneath the lining of the esophagus. Northern cattle grubs appear in the spinal canal after that same time interval. The grubs live in those locations for about six months and then migrate to the topline of theanimal. When the larvae first arrives in the back it cuts a small breathing hole in the hide, then molts in a pouch a warble between the inner and outer layers of skin. After growing rapidly for six to eight weeks, the fully grown larvae cuts a hole, exits the warble and falls to the ground. There it crawls under some object and transforms to a pupa. The pupal stage last two weeks to 60 days depending upon the weather. The new adult then emerees. mates. finds a host and repeats the annual no longer . .

The single largest sub sidy program in the United States is in the form of tax write-offs for home interest and property taxes. Thus, it's not surprising that home ownership is considered desir able. Researchers find that most Americans feel ownine a single SSaE-30ucl( cheese, macaroni casserole regardless oi age, income, sex, ottu- pation or region of the country. Furthermore, housing norms and preference have not changed signif- icantly over the last 15 years. What does this mean for your children? First, your children will probably have a high desire for home ownership at some time on their lives. However, they may not be in a position to buy a house. The median-priced home today is beyond the buying ability of the median- income household. In order to buy, many families must explore options they feel are not optimum. For instance families with two incomes wav: "Joel, it vou dont put your wagon away, I'll hide it and you'll never get it again." Will you really do that or are you making empty threats? Threatening communica tion is a tiresome style for kids to endure. In the punishment style the par ent puts the wagon away without comment to the child and forbids use of it the next day. But how will childrn learn if you aren't a positive teacher? The reasoning parent explains the cause and effect: "Joel, put your wagon in the basement because it will get wet outside and the rain will rust it." The reasoning parent is the best teacher. This parent creates a posi tive attitude toward the instruc tion, increases the child's know ledge, and develops a routine beha vior pattern for similar situations in the future. While some ways of communi cating take more time than others, the time-consuming methods are often more effective in teaching children appropriate behavior. Beef Management tips for October Begin selection for replacement heifers. Vaccinate all heifers for brucello- I'pdate and begin analysis of iroduction records. Develop a marketing plan for this year's calf crops and cull cows. Treat for grubs in October or November after a hard freeze. Evaluate winter hay needs and buy hay now. ings, while also maintaining indi vidual accounts. The couple may even choose to keep all income separate and each contribute a designated amount toward the household expenses, Morrow says. But however, the incomes are pooled and divided, it is important that the system is agreeable to both spouses and that both know the family financial priorities and the family financial status. Discussing and developing finan cial priorities not only help the family finances, it also helps a cou ple build communication skills. Fi nancial planning helps couples learn to make decisions together, and togetherness strengthens marriage relationships. cattle grubs cycle. Control Control of grubs can be achieved easily and effectively using syste matic insecticides at the proper time. Application should be timed to kill the grubs during the 30-to 60-day early migration period after heel fly activity has stopped in the fall, usually after the first killing frost. This will kill the grubs before they reach the gullet or spinal column. Pour-on application methods are convenient and cost effective. Injec tion of Ivermectin as part of total parasite control program is also effective on grubs. Cattle heavily infested with large, first-stage grubs can be injured and sometimes killed by the reaction of their body to the treated dead grubs. M ost herds have low enough grub populations that cutoff dates are not that important. However, for imported cattle and herds that have had large numbers of grubs, the cutoff date must be adhered to strictly to prevent losses. For more information on grub control see the Cow-Calf Manage ment Guide. CL705. realistic nna full InnniMA (j devote one full income to housing costs. Couples who lock themselves into a two-income housing pattern may have trouble coping with role expectations if they have children. Others find they can't afford other things they enjoy, such as travel. One of the most important things you can do for your children is expose them to the financial side of housing.

Examine all treats carefully for evidence of tampering before allow ing children to eat them. Look for costumes, masks, beards and wigs labeled "Flame Resist ant." Although this does not mean these items wont catch fire, such labeling indicates that they will resist burning and should extin guish quickly once removed from the ignition source.
