Reports of losses from appli

to 33 from a total of 71 in 1962.
Twenty seven of those losses
reported were valid with dam
age varying from slight to hea

not investigated by the depart

were: Harvest of crop

the other report was received

The reports, which came from
13 separate counties, involved
21 air applications and six
ground applications. The latter
involved two farmer applica

He said that despite the fact
that the number of farms and
farmers is steadily decreasing,
American agriculture is an
expanding industry. It is the
nation's largest industry with
more than 15 million employes.
The farmer buys 25 per cent

The farmer is a big spender
now more 'than $28 billion a
year for equipment, seed,
chemicals, fertilizers, goods and
services. He's in his mid-tOs on
the average, attends colleges,
and night schools, and is getting
to be more and more selective
for things he buys.
The companies and dealers
who sell to the farm market
will have to change, too, if they
intend to compete successfully
for his business in the years
ahead, Engle said.
He emphasized that the "sys
tem approach" to selling will
be used more widely in the fu
ture to the "farmer's ultimate
advantage." Engle explained
that it involves pre-planning in
terrelated farm systems by sev.
eral companies who build and
install the equipment.
It is now being done to some
extent in the fecdlot and a few
other areas, but Engle predict
ed that the farm systems ap
proach will expand to other
areas of the farm as well.
"The farmers of the future
will seek out the centers of

Farm Bureau Delegation
Opposes Federal Controls
Farm Bureau delegates from
33 Oregon counties filed Into a
Salem convention hall this week
determined to oppose further in
tervention of government in ag
riculture. In the opening ad
dress, OFRR president Harold
Beach toldU group Uw ami of
the convention was to analyze
the problems confronting agri
culture in 1964 and to form
sound policies for their solution.
He said In order to do this,
"We must consider the thinking
and mood of farmers as shown
in their actions during the past
year."
Beach called for a transition
period to adjust production to
market needs but said we must
return to the consumer as tlie
ultimate factor In determining
production.
Congressman Robert Duncan,
speaking in the afternoon follow
ing the president's address,
warned farmers that Congress
is not happy with the support
and surplus programs which
have failed to control production
or upgrade farm Income for
small farmers. He said the
farm bloc is gone and city con
gressmen are not In sympathy
with agricultural programs.
Banquet speaker Dr. Ernest
L. Wilkinson, president of Brig
ham Young University, shook
his finger at the audience of
over 450 farmers Tuesday night
and warned them against going
to the government to solve their
problems. He lauded free enter
prise as the catalyst which has
made it possible for the United
States, with 7 per cent of the
world's population to produce 40
per cent of the world's goods.
He warned strongly of the ac
complishments of socialists and
programs legislated in this coun
try, and maintained that Con
gress and tlie executive depart
ment have gone far beyond their
constitutional bounds In adopt
ing and interpreting new pro
grams of governmental Interven-
lion in free enterprise.
William Wells, a vice presi
dent of the First National Bank
of Oregon and a specialist on
international trade, told tlie con
vention gathering the prospects
in agriculture are good, but that
tlie European Economic Com
munity and other such Common
Market arrangements will force
us to constantly improve quality
of our products.
The house of delegates meet

adopted a set of resolutions gen

Trials May Cause Shift
In Ruelene Cutoff Date
A change in tlie present cut
off date for use of Ruelene to
control cattle grubs may result
from research trials being con
ducted by Dr. R. L. Goulding,
Oregon State University Agri

tomologist.
Present label instructions re
strict use of Ruelene sprays or

Nov. 1. This limitj use in Ore
gon, since many cattle are still
on range in November.
Use of the chemical was re
stricted after some cattle re
portedly developed toxic side
effects when the insecticide
was applied after Nov. 1. None
of the reports originated from
Oregon. Toxicity was possibly
due to large numbers of grubs
in the animal's gullet, it was
said.
Goulding tested Ruelene pour
on at recommended rates on
200 animals from six herds in
different sections of Oregon, be

served, according to Dr. Goul
ding, and grub control was ex
cellent.
Goulding points out that
grubs often mean lower profits
for the cattleman. Buyers may
dock grubby cattle because of
the extra trim-out necessary at -slaughter.
Also, flies often ir-
ritate the cattle and cause them
to "gad" during fly time in
spring and summer, causing
weight loss and possible dam
age to fences as well as to the
livestock.
Common cattle grubs become
noticeable as warbles on the
backs of cattle after mid-December,
according to Goulding.
By late February or early
March, grubs cut holes in the
hide along the back and drop
off the cattle to pupate in the
soil.
Flies become active in late
winter or early spring, depend
ing on periods of sunshine. The
flies are about the size of small
bumblebees. They lay eggs on
the legs and flanks of the cat
tle. v
Eggs hatch soon after they
are laid, and the larvae burrow
under tlie hide at the base of
a hair shaft. They migrate
through muscle tissue to t h e
animal's gullet, where they feed
until summer. The larvae then
migrate to the area just under
the hide, along the backbone of
the animal, where they grow.
Into full size grubs, or "war
bles." A second grub, the Northern
cattle grub, follows the same
development as the common
grub, except that warbles ap
pear later In the winter, flies
are active later in Ihe spring
and summer, and grubs do not
congregate in the gullet.
Beginning Nov. 1, large scale
tests involving some 900 head
of Oregon cattle will be con
ducted for evidence of toxic re
action to Ruelene application.
Goulding says he hopes this
winter's testa will provide suf
ficient information for a change
