GRUB8 IN BACKS OF RATTLE.
DR. W. M. BURSON, Prof. Vet Med.,
Georgia State College Of Agri.
Grubs under tho skin of the back

Industry. Losses are caus
ed by the flies bothering cattle during
hot weather and/ interfering with
grazing, growth, fattening and milk
production. During winter while the
grubs are in position under the skin,
loss of flnsli in beef cattle, causing de
struction of meat, and great commer
cial damage to hides are the result
of infestation. Over each tumor in
the back will be found a hole in the
skin. One or more holes in a hide
lowers the market grade one or two
cents per pound. .
Dot flies do not live outside the bod
ies Of cattle during the winter. De
struction of the grubs under the skin
prevents the propagation of bot flies
during the following summer.
The grubs may be destroyed by
crushing them under ^the skin, by
squeezing them out through the open
ing in the skin,’by injecting a few
drops of gasoline into each tumor, or
by dipping cattle in the arsenical so
lution used for destroying ticks.
The mature fly deposits eggs in the
vicinity of the heels of cattle during
nTbesi j summer. The application of a fly-re-
inj- pellant cf fish oil—three parts, kero
sene, one part—during fly time will
help to keep down infestation.
