Many Farmers Treat
ing Bindweed Now.
The ever growing menace to farm
land o fthe European Bindweed, alias
"Creeping Charlie," "Creeping Jen
nie," or "Small Flowered Morning
Glory," has drawn the attention of
many farmers in the county this
spring.
This small, green, ppade-shapfcd
creeping vine was in full bloom the
pst week. The flowers are very
similar to that of the regular morn
ing glory but smaller. Most of them
are white but some have a pinkish
cast.
Although September and October
is the ideal time of year to kill them
with chemical, a fairly good Job can
be done now and then another light
treatment this fall may do the job
100 per cent. Where the patches are
small, treatment with sodium chlor
ate seems to be the easiest way of
eradicating them. Where the area Is
large, summer cultivation. If done
Judiciously, is the most economical
method. If you have a weed you sus
picion to be bindweed bring or send
it to the Farm Bureau office for
identification and control methods.
Hopper Infestation Worse
With Dry Weather.
With grasshopper infestation be
coming more serious in eastern Ne
braska and locally in the western
part of the county In recent days,
Cass county farmers are urged to take
all precautionary measures In con
trolling the pest if it becomes too
numerous. The old slogan, "A stitch
in time, saves nine," applies as the
time to control the hoppers is when
they are young.
That the infestation is not to be
taken lightly was foreseen this week
in a statement made by O. S. Bare,
extension entomologist at the Nebras
ka college of agriculture. "Hopper
infestation," he said, "is increasing
steadily. More than 30 counties have
reported grasshoppers in enough
numbers to require organized control
measures. Unless plenty of moisture
is received, heavier damage from the
pests is to be expected." In many
cases the hoppers are still In the pas
tures and fence rows and have not
spread to the major crops. They

The. Effect of Fly Sprays
on Tairy Cows.
In the January number of the
Journal Dairy Science, W. M. Regan
and S. D. Freeborn, of the California
Agricultural Experiment station,
gave a very interesting report on
studies that have been carried on dur
ing the past ten years at the Cali
fornia station on the effects of flies
and fly sprays on the dairy cow.
These investigators found that:
(1) The loss in milk production
caused by flies is often over-estimated.
When high producing cows
were exposed to extremely heavy in
festations, the los3 occasioned by
house flies and horn flies were neg
ligible. The loss caused by stable flies
was slightly less than 10 percent.
(2) When petroleum sprays were
used to repel the stable flies, the loss
in milk yield was increased to 22 per
cent. The extreme effect was evi
dent when the high producing cows
were sprayed during hot weather. Not
only was production diminished, but
the body temperatures and respir
ation rates were elevated. The ap
plication of oil prevents the evapor
ation of water from the skin.
(3) A water emulsion of pyre
thrum and pine oil combined with a
small amount of petroleum equalled
or excelled the better brands of com
mercial petroleum fly sprays in fly
repelling efficiency. The two best
emulsions used have the following
formulas:
FORMULA 1
Petroleum oil, 84cc. (Unsulphon-
ated residue, 90; Viscosity, 97).
Pyrethru extract (19-1) 48cc.
Pine Ooil, steam distilled, 4Scc
(Specific gravity, .9377; Boiling point
194-217; Color, 1 NPA).
Trlesthanolamine oleate 16 gms.
Water lOOcc.
Dilute one part of this stock emul
sion with four and one-third parts of
water.
FORMULA 2
Petroleum oil (as above) 50cc.
Pine oil (as above) 50cc.
Fyrethrum extract (as above) 50cc.
Diglycol oleate, 28.9cc.
Dilute slowly with eight parts of
water, agitating vigorously.
This research at the California sta
tion confirms the investigation that
was made recently in the Iowa State
College station and also a very early
test made by Dr. C. H. Eckles, at the
Missouri station In 1905. He con
cluded at ithis early date, that the
use of a fly repellent-was fairly ef
fective in preventing annoyance
from flies if applied at milking time,
but the yield of milk or fat was not
affected by its use.
This would Indicate that a heavy
spraying with many so called good
fly sprays is more harmful to the
cows than a light spraying or no
spraying at all.
