Salt Inst. Says Foot
Rot Con Be Prevented
Foot rot represents one of
the most serious economic
losses in feed lots .... on
range and pasture. Foot rot is
prevalent in all sections of
the United States. Also foot
rot knows no season, although
it’s most vicious in fall, win
ter, and spring when cattle
stand in mud, snow, and ice.
Foot rot affects both beef and
dairy cattle, the Salt Institute
claims.
It is not a simple disease,
but is rather a syndrome, al
though the organism, spheio
phorus neciophorus, is always
identified in the lesions of the
infected tissue between the
digital hoofs.
The disease spreads rapidly
and as high as 80 per cent of
a herd can be infected.
Foot rot is difficult to treat,
thus preventive medication is

one-half tons per acre from
Piper sudangrass and Trudan
I hybrid sudangrass at the
same heading stage
When harvested for hay at
the 30-inch height, the three
foiages each yielded about 3
and one-half tons of dry mat
ter per acre Protein content
of the hay was also about the
same for all three varieties
These forages were 'cut three
times for hay at the South
western Field Research Lab
oratory, Rector.
It appears that the sudan
grasses will diy more rapidly
than the sudan-sorghum hy
brids when harvested for hay
Foi this leason, county agents
suggest using the sudangrass
es for hay where an annual
hay ‘crop is needed
The field tests were made
by Willis L. McClellan, super
intendent of the Southwestern
Field Research Laboratory at
Rectoi, and John B Washko,
agronomist for the Agricultur
al Expeiiment Station.
The thiee annuals were
seeded with a gram drill at a
rate of 40 pounds per acre
The area was fertilized ac
cording to soil test recom
mendations. Plots harvested
under the hay system were
cut when each Variety reached
a 30-inch height The silage
plots were harvested when
fully headed but before pol
len began to shed and again
after a killing frost.
