F.D.A. clears selemium
for use in cattle feed
Selenium has been cleared
for use in cattle feed by the
U.S. Food and Drug Adminis
tration, according to John P.
Nordheim, Morrow County
Extension Agent.
Selenium, a trace mineral,
can now be added to cattle
diets under certain conditions.
The soil in Eastern Oregon is
quite low in this mineral,
' thereby the plants grown on
this soil are also low in
selenium. Animals in this
region tend to be deficient in
selenium.
Selenium deficiencies are
widespread in Eastern Ore
gon. Selenium is needed to

prevent White Muscle Disease
'in calves. Selenium deficiency
is linked to Stiff Lamb Di
sease, another muscle pro
blem. Selenium is also in
volved in maintenance of cell
membranes. There is some
evidence that selenium may
be involved as a deficiency in
calf scours (diarrhea), defec
tive sperm, still-births, and
may be helpful in protecting
against cancer.
The American Feed Manu
facturers Association applied
to FDA for approval of
selenium in the diets of farm
animals, beginning with pigs
and chickens. Approval for
selenium use in the diets of
pigs and chickens was granted
in 1974. Sheep were approved
last year and finally this year
on January 26, beef and dairy
cattle were added.
In granting approval for
selenium's use, FDA allowed
it to be added to feed, injected
or put into salt mixes. The
type of method a farmer
chooses depends on whether
animals are fed in a confined
operation such as a dairy barn
or a chickenhouse, or kept on
the range. Selenium does need
to be treated with care
because the required level is
relatively close to the toxic
level, according to Nordheim.
Forest Supervisor H.B. Ru
dolph announced today plans
for vegetation control projects
on Umatilla National Forest
lands.
These plans are subjects of
environmental assessment re
ports which consider several
alternatives for control of
noxious weed and highway
roadside vegetation. Selection
. of chosen alternatives will be
made about June 1, 1979
following a 30 day notice in the
Federal Register.
Some of the alternatives
would utilize various chemical
herbicides. These are Kar
mex, Krovar I, Weedone 170
and Krenite for control of
roadside vegetation. Projects
are by the Oregon State
Highway Division along 34.5
miles of state highways 204
and 244 in Union and Umatilla
counties, 207 in Morrow and
Wheeler counties, and U.S. 395
in Grant County; where these
highways cross National For
est lands. Roundup and Pi
cloram may be used for
noxious weed control by the
U.S. Forest Service or County
weed control districts.
Forest Service noxious weed
control projects are located in
numerous small spots ranging
from .01 acre to 45 acres. Ten
acres are on the Pomeroy
Ranger District in Asotin,'
Columbia, Garfield and Wa
llowa counties. Sixty acres are
on the Walla Walla Ranger
District in Union County, and
five acres on the Heppner.
Ranger District in Morrow,
Wheeler and Grant counties.
All of the herbicides are
registered by the E.P.A. for
the intended use.
Some concern has been ex
pressed about protection of
nearby habitat important for
wildlife, fish or non-target
plant species. The proposed
treatment provides for mea
sure such as careful and
controlled application, low
toxicity of selected herbicides,
buffer or non-treatment areas,
and certified applications so
that adjacent habitat will not
be affected.
