Simple Device

ABOUT SIS and little time win
provide your cattle with an effec-
tive cable-type back rubber as pro-
lection against horn flies and stable
flies, according to report from the
South Dakota Experiment station.
The back rubber is simple in COM
struction. Two wooden fence posts,
solidly set and braced, are installed
about is feet apart. A cable-this
can be a chain, wire rope or, pre-
ferably, three strands of barbed
wire wrapped with a fourth wire
is suspended between the posts and
allowed to sag to within 18 inches
of the ground. The cable is wrapped
with burlap sacks and tied every
4 to inches with binder twine
The sacking is soaked with an in
secticidal solution made up of one
pint of 20 percent lindane liquid
spray emulsion or one gallon of IS
percent DDT mixed into four gall
Ions of fuel oil or furnace oil. About
a gallon of the solution is necessary
to wet the burlap at first, and, at
approximately two-week intervals,
another two quarts or so should be
added.
The units are most effective when
set up near water holes, feed racks,
salt icks or where cattle loaf, ac-
cording to the report.

Western Wheatgrass

WESTERN WHEATGRASS is one
of the most abundant and widely
distributed native grasses in Mon
tana and Wyoming. Often called
s'bluejoint," ''b1uestem," and ''blue-
stem wheatgrass" because, during
the growing season, it is covered
with grayish bloom which gives
large patches of ground BLUSH
green cast, this grass forms an inn
portant part of the forage on most
plains ranches in the eastern sec
tions of the two states.
The grass will grow on a variety
Of soils but is especially abundant
on lowlands and on e-textured
uplands where it is found in nearly
pure stands. 1t is commonly asso-
ciated with sagebrush on the lower
foothills. It is tolerant of alkali; it
survived the droughts of the 1930s
surprisingly well, and the green foli-
age withstands many early and late
frosts.
The seed stalks are usually one
to three feet tall. The flower head is
from two to six inches long. When
you examine the seed head closely
you will discover that it consists Of
several spikelets placed flatwise to
the stem, one spikelet at each joint.
Each spikelet contains from six to
ten individual flowers which later
form seeds.
Western wheatgrass reproduces
both by seeds and by creeping und-
erground stems known as rhizomes,
which may be distinguished from
roots because they form nodes and
have scale-like leaves. Rhizomes en-
able the plant to spread underground
six to eight inches a year, and may
lie dormant during periods of
drought and send up shoots on what
appeared to be bare ground as soon
as moisture becomes available. From
