CALOMEL MAKES YOU SICK. mm STAY fly cf cattle, a serious pest of the cat-. "DcdSQll’S LiVSf TOilfc” Will Ci5iT:i tie 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.
