Fly Control Is Needed, Say County Agents By COUNTY AGENTS Artificial Breeding The Newberry Cooperative Breeding Association has been cm its new frozen semen breeding program for approximately 11 months and some of the first calves are now being dropped. Sam Gary on the Whitmire High way is the proud owner of twin Holstein heifer calves that re sulted from one of the first “froz en semen” breedings made in the county. Winston Hendrix holds the distinction of having the first cow bred with frozen semen in Newberry County. The heavy breeding season for Newberry County dairymen is now at hand. We would just like to emphasize that the use of the best bulls available is a must, if New berry County is to maintain its position as a top dairy county in South Carolina. W e have studied carefully the pedigrees and proof on the bulls available through the Newberry County Cooperative Breeding As sociation and are convinced that some of the best bulls in the coun try are available to our dairy farmers through artificial breed ing. The strong feature of the, present artificial breeding pro gram is that every dairy farmer may choose the bull or bulls he wants to use and have them avail able any time he wants to use them. More important, cows are being settled at the proper time. Tom Riser, the s local serviceman is rated one of the top servicemen in the state. We feel that Newberry County dairy farmers are extreme ly fortunate to have available the best bulls and one of the best ser vicemen, a rare combination that means a better dairy breeding program and a better future for our county dairy industry. Don’t forget to see the fair ex hibit which tells the story of the present artificial breeding pro gram. Control Flies on Cattle Livestock farmers had practic ally no fly problems in early spring and summer this year. However, right now is as bad as we have seen it in recent years. Hornflies and horse flies are particularly numerous. A number of herds we’ve seen recently have been heavily infested with these pests. We call attention to this Richard Baker, State Pilgrimage Chairman, Mrs. Don Rook, Dist rict Horticulture Chairman, and Mrs. Clem Youmans, District Pil grimage Chairman. Also attend ing were the following garden club presidents: Mrs. Eddie Rod- elsperger, Mrs. Leon Nichols, Mrs. Paul Heisey, Mrs. P. M. Dennis, Mrs. Henry Elrod, and Mrs. Hugh Senn. Others accompanying them were Mrs. R. J. Sanders, Mrs. Warren Cousins, Mrs. Lena Mont gomery, Mrs. Ernest Layton, 'Mrs. William Hunter, and Mrs. R. M. Lominack.

Milk production can be cut as much as 25 per cent because of flies. During the present base forming period, this fly problem should demand the attention of every cattle owner and pt rticular- ly the dairy farmers. Poultry In any business record keeping is of top importance. Poultry has become a big business in the pro duction of eggs, both commercial and hatching. The competition be tween growers within our state de mands the need to follow the lat est recommendations in manage ment practices. These things make record keeping necessary for suc cess. Records and facts help deter^ mine if an egg producing pro ject is operating at a loss or a profit. It is surprising to know that many producers do not keep accurate records and do not know where the greatest cost and profit lies in producing eggs. The Clemson College Extension Service can be of much assistance to you if you participate in the South Carolina Egg, Feed, and Mortality Record Program. This program is an effort, on a large scale, to determine and establish a yardstick by which you can evaluate your operation and com pare it to others over the state. The record is simple to keep and gives valuable up-to-date infor mation. The County extension workers will be contacting you in regard to this program. A meeting will be held at Little Mountain School, Tuesday, Sep tember 23, 8 p. m. This meeting will concern record keeping and other information as to better management of poultry for top production. Everyone is irivited to attend. Tobacco Sale Date Set Monday September 22 at 9 a. m. out at the Newberry County Fair grounds there will be plenty of action.
