FEEDLOT OPERATION Beef cattle waste management systems are becoming a must for modern feedlot operations. As feedlot size continues to increase, pollution control problems multiply. And many existing feedlots already need facilities for intercepting runoff water. A feedlot next to a road ditch may need a curb around it to keep rain water from flushing manure into the ditch. The water retained by the curb can be drained out slowly and pumped to a safe discharge area. A feedlot with space around it may need a small holding pond to collect the runoff water. You can add a settling basin to this waste management system to keep solids out of the holding pond as well as a method of emptying the pond before the next storm. Large feedlots contributing drainage to several waterways may need integrated waste control systems to control runoff. Finally, runoff can be eliminated by putting the entire feedlot under a roof and using a slatted-floor system with un­ derground manure storage. Although confinement feeding eliminates feedlot runoff problems, it may present its own other waste management problems such as odors and waste disposal. m NEW LOCATION: 4610 W.

In the beginning we yanks may have been a bit taken aback by the simple but chick format, being used to action, movement, high-key- ed entertainment. Old World style filtered through over the minutes and a pleasant hour was the result. CBS will present a tribute to Duke Ellington on Feb­ ruary 11th. Among the instru­ mentalists who'll play in that special are Ray Brown, Louis Bellson, Eubie Blake, Harry Carney, Willie Smith and Cootie Williams. A WHOPPING BATCH of pilots are now being scanned by network programmers. One concludes that there may be a bigger shake-up than usual in the new sea­ son next September. How­ ever, when one looks at the prospective show titles, '* casts and formats, one con- eludes that there's not much % to cheer the seeker of some­ thing different. ~w Speeding is profitable only for the undertakers. $ •V rj oV 1 - • J M d / DISCUSS FARM CREDIT -The rapidly imrrmtMe 0# farm credit was one of ^he topics discutsed at a two-day executive 1 conference in St. Louis attended by R.G.
