These seedheads may irritate the eyes of the cattle and increase the chances of pinkeye infection. Flies spread certain kinds of pinkeye. Repeated spraying of the faces of cattle iwith Ciodrin insecticide to control face flies is recommended. Dust bags, face' wipers and backrubbers also help in controlling flies. Locate them near or on the salt box, on the way to water, or in shaded loafing areas.

An adequate amount of Vitamin A heli keep eyes healthy. Good pastures generally provide enough Vitamin A. Where dry weather is turning pastures brown, supplementary Vitamin A 'should be provided. Separate awimals with pink eye from the herd and treat infected eyes with an antibacterial preparation. Keep infected animals in a sheltered area.

Covering infected eyes will protect them from light and foreign matter and will speed recovery. A simple patch made of burlap and held in place with rubber cement seems to be effective. If treatment does not improve conditions, consult a veterinarian. Viral disease such as IBR may be the cause of pinkeye. Your veterinarian can recommend a vaccination program for controlling such diseases.

Studies have shown that calves with pinkeye weighed considerably less at weaning time and as yearlings when compared' to calves the same age without pinkeye. Thus, controlling pinkeye can pay with increased profits at market time.

Unless target areas are identified by virtue of samples- submitted and. the sterile fly program cannot function effec 2540 E. MAIN PHONE 865-6011, Open 7 AM. to 7 P.M.
