4 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, May 3, 1978 Section Two Two iHappy Orono Youngsters obtained, the herd must be tested each year at the owner's expense to maintain the status of a brucellosis-free listed herd. Under the new program, alI cattlemen- whether they have purebred or, registered cattie - may apply to have herds listed. This form of brucellosis control continues to be most effective and its popularity is being revitalized. With a brucellosis-free listed herd, the cattieman is in control of and responsible for his herd- testing program, Apart from knowing the herd is free from the disease, there are other advantages to the cattlemen. The elite status allows cattle- men to sell their animals - either at a community sales or by private treaty - without additional testing. It also facilitates the export of such cattle to the United States. - Cattiemen and farmers should consult with their private veteninarians regarding brucellosis-free lis(ed herds, to learn more about the regulations and to arrange for blood testing. Damage by Meadow Mice and Moles We have received a large number of calîs from homýe- owners and farmers alike regarding damage done by imeadow mîce and moles during the past winter. These rodents can convert last fall's attractive lawn into, a tunnelled and unattractive area in the spring. The mice and moles spend the winter in sheltered areas, foragi.ng beneath the snow ta feed. They eat the tender bark of deciduous trees and shrubs and will attack evergreens, if snow persists. They sometimes cut off small branches and remove bark from larger ones. Mice will often girdle the trees by removi'ng the bark near the ground. And where girdling is extensive, trees may die unless bridge grafting is done early in the season. Although lawn damage may appear extensive, especially from moles, this is seldom the case. Grass roots have not been destroyed and the damaged areas 'will recover. It is recommended that you rake the areas that have mole damage, early in the spring and remove dead grass and debris. Control of voles and moles is most effective, if practiced in the faîl. If you have damage this year, you wîll likely have a mouse and mole population in the faîl. There are rodenti- cides available for meadow mice and chemical controls for moles. These are available at garden centres, under various trade names, however, if you pflan on using these, we urge you'to check the directions and follow the label very closely. These materials are all poisonous, and must be used safely and effectively, so that cats, dogs and birds do not corne in contact with the poisons. Crabgrass Control Crabgrass can be. a trouble- some weed in August, if it is not attacked in the spring. Crabgrass, which is an annual weed, germinates early in the spring, however, it is often not recognized until brown patches show up in later summer. Although crabgrass can be controlled by pre- emergence herbicides, using good cultural practîces, is a more satisfactory control measure. A well fertilized lawn mowed at 1½/ to 2 inches will keep crabgrass under control. Crabgrass does not like, shade, so it can be smothered out with a thick, lush lawn. However, if there was crabgrass in the lawn last fall, it will soon be germinating, and a chemical weed control must be applied before germination. Crabgrass herbicide is available in some fertilizers. and this will save you a trip over the ýlawn. If the materials are available. Check the label to see if -the active ingredient is present in, the fertilizer you do buy. There are also a number of herbicides recommended for crabgrass control, and if you plan on using these, follow the directions on the label, so that you get the most effective and, safe control in your lawn.

Listed Herd Status - Advantageous Cattiemen with a brucello- sis-free listed herd will enjoy many advantages over non- listed herd owners, under the new brucellosis regulations. As we have mentioned in previous columns and new regulation§ concerning eradi- cation of this highly contage- ous cattle disease. The brucellosis-free listed herd program was a popular one some years ago, but its popularity diminished due to the area's Certification Program. 1 To obtaîn a Listed Status, herds must have two negative blood tests, flot less than 6 months and not more than one year apart. Many producers in the county already have had one blood test through the country-wide testing program. Further test 6 months later can be done at the producer's expense, and if this one is negative as well, will give hlm his listed status. Once listed status bas been FUD)GEE Q.
