Pfeiffer, Carnation, Wash.

18 COMBINE
Harvests More/Saves More
P f(
iff
Harvesting goes faster with an Oliver Model 18
pull-type. You take a full 7-foot cut with its floating,
auger-type header. Right behind it are field-proven
units to save more of every grain and bean crop.
First of all, a semi-revolving reel reduces shatter
ing by descending straight into the crop. Then
another grain-saver takes over. Oliver’s “Man Be
hind the Gun” traps 90% of the grain right at the
cylinder, sends it directly to the cleaning shoe
before it can mix with straw and chaff. Finally,
extra pitching by extra long walkers shakes out the
remaining kernels.
There’s a lot more to see—the swing
ing drawbar, 25-bushel tank, husky I
tubular frame, adjustable concaves.

shorter interval between time of
sale and official transfer of owner
ship.
THIS PLAN INCLUDES a dis
count for Holstein breeders hold
ing membership in one of the 48
state Holstein organizations as
well as the National Association
who register calves at early ages
Formerly, this dual member
ship discount was applied to
transfer fees. Since animals reg
istered greatly out-number those
transfered, the change-over is ex
pected to attract many new mem
bers to the state groups.
Also approved were several res
olutions to streamline the Assn’s
By-Laws throgh re-phrasing and
re-location of several sections
without change of meaning or ap
plication
IN A MOVE designed to save
\aluable filing space at the Assn’s
Biattleboro, Vermont headquar
teis, it was voted to cut the inter
\?1 for duplication of registered
Holstein names from 20 to 15
j ears
The provision prohibiting du
plication of the names of, certain
celebrated animals designated by
the Board of Directors was re
tamed
The New England State Hol
stem-Eriesian Assn was host to
the Convention which attracted
more than 2,000 Holstein breeders

and several foreign countries.

Fly Control
Means Sanitation,
Control Program
The problemv of fighting flies
confronts all farmers and all farm
animals; these very common in
sects not only contaminate milk
and other food, dis-color walls and
windows, but decrease the effi
ciency of production in all ani
mals The following practices to
control flies are easy and eco
nomical
In the first place a fly control
piogram should start with the
adoption of very high sanitary
standards Flies like filth and
places to lay their eggs Barns,
barnyards, porches, and houses
that are kept clean and in many
cases dis-mfected will have much
less trouble with the fly problem
Concrete barnyards, feed and lit
ter alleys, and other areas afound
the buildings will help discourage
a h-cjj fly population.
For residual sprays in dairy and
beef barns, and piggeries the use
of Diazinon at the rate of V 2 pint
ot the 25% emulsion or eight
ounces of the 25% wettable pow
dei in 3 gallons of water will do a
good job for five to six weeks, ap
ply this spray at the rate of one
gallon to 500 square feet of wall
or ceiling Korlan is another ma
terial that may be used in live
stock barns and also in poultry
houses, use 1 pound of the 25%
wettable powder in 3 gallons of
water and apply one gallon per
500 square feet of area. All axu
mals should be removed from the
building for at least 4 hours after
spraying and all feed troughs and
water bowls should be covered
The cable-type treater for cattle
has worked fine for many pi oduc
ers, with this method a chain or
three strands of barbed wire are
suspended from a sturdy post or
fi ee and the other end is fastened
to the ground, the treater should
be about 10 feet long and the top
end about five and one-half feet
high Burlap bags or old blankets
are wrapped around the cable and

ment should be repeated every
two weeks
Fly baits may also be used sue
cessfully, many commercial baits
arc on the market. A simple one
to mix is to use three tablespoons
of 25% Malathion powder mixed
with one pound of granulated sug
ar. Place this away from animals
but around window sills and lit
ter alleys where flies gather
