in certain commodities. These
payments help to offset the loss of
returns from cropland that
otherwise would be used for in
come-yielding production, and on
which the farmer is obliged to
continue to pay taxes and apply
needed conservation steps, USDA
explained. Payments to
producers are limited to $55,000
per person for each of the three
crops under the 1970 Act.
Total payments for grains and
cotton this year are expected to
be about $3.7 billion. Feed grain
producers ultimately will get
about $1.9 billion, cotton
producers about $825 million, and
wheat producers about $1 billion.

bucket with water, and give
him an old paintbrush. Let
the child “paint” the outside
of the house or the porch.
The brick or cement will
turn dark from the water
and give him a sense of ac

anyway).

An easy way to attach but
tons to your son’s Scout
shirts is to coat the back of
each badge with any good
mending glue, then press
with a WARM iron on both
sides. The glue is also a
timesaver in hemming trous
ers.
Make several one-foot ex
tension cords. The length is
perfect for cords that just
miss reaching the electrical
outlets (so near and yet so
far) and you do not have to
roll up and hide all those
extra feet of cord

Toxaphene Used
In Cattle Tick Dips
An amendment to Federal
regulations to allow use of
toxaphene as a dip for cattle tick
eradication was adopted by
the U.S. Department of
Agriculture Previously, the
regulations governing inter-state
movement of animals permitted
use only of arsenic, dioxathion
and coumaphos
The amendment became ef
fective upon signature by an
official of USDA’s Animal and
Plant Health Inspection Service.
Both species of cattle ticks—
Boophilus microplus and
Boophilus annulatus —have been
found in a quarantine zone in
south Texas The quarantine
zone, necessary because of
presence of the ticks in Mexico,
extends from the mouth of the
Rio Grande River 500 miles
northwest to Amistad Dam near
Del Rio and varies m width from
a few yards to several miles.
APHIS officials have alerted
cattle owners to watch for ticks
and to submit specimens for
identification If fever ticks are
found, infested and exposed
cattle are dipped m tick-killing
baths at regular intervals for at
least one year.
To protect fish and wildlife,
officials warn that after dipping,
animals must be kept out of
streait|s and ponds for at least
seven dSys Tests made at
Beltsville, Md , have shown that
until that much time elapses,
animals retain enough dip
solution on their legs and bodies
to pollute water.
