Recently completed exper iments by USDA illustrated the falla cy of relying solely on drugs in the control of parasites. Even though given free-choice and therapeutic medication with pheno- thiazine and dosing with thiabenda zole, lambs grown on contaminated pastures developed clinical parasit ism. At the same time, lambs in dry- lot or on newly renovated pastures remained essentially parasite free with phenathiazine. It was noted in the trials that lambs on clean pastures gradually developed moderate parasitic infec tions during the latter part of the grazing season while lambs on con taminated pastures became severely parasitized. In spite of scientific advances, trials of this nature point up the val ue of good management and approp riate use of all facilities in a farm ing operation. We suspect that this will hold equally well for most other types of enterprises, too.

Predatory control has always been a problem in the livestock industry, particularly in range areas.
