More milk in the bucket is the
payoff for a community ox war
ble control program Last year
almost everybody in the Lost
Creek area earned out a control
program for ox warble when
they began appearing on the
hacks of cattle in January. 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.
The Lost Creek area is a nar-
row valley surrounded by hills
which separate it from adjoining
agricultural areas
Other resi
dents of the area all followed a
control program and there just
were not any heel fly left to
mother cattle in the area, 'i’he
