The program was successful accord ing to John Dilley, dairyman .'rotn that area. In a report to the Columbia county dairy committee. Dilley stated that the number of ox a arble on his cattle this year was very small in spite of th | fart that last y**ar was a bad year for the warble. Results first showed when rowa held up in milk during the period when low days were usu ally experienced because of heel 9y activity. Just how much extra milk he got is hard to esti mate but Dilley is willing to -redit an extra 5 gallons a day for quite a number of days He recalls the warm spring days in previous years when the cows were down because they ran around the pasture avoiding heel fly rather than graze.

It u a little late to start a con trol program tor this year but not too late to do lots of good if control measures are applied immediately Fresh rotenone dust is recommended Dust it on the backs of cattle and work it thoroughly into the hair Some of the dust must get into the breather hole of each warble to kill the pest Treatment should be repeated at least every- 3° days.
