County Agent Reports Spittlebug and Weevil Invasion
County agents report spittlebugs in large numbers across Henry County with eggs hatching quickly and nymphs feeding. A spray window of one to two weeks is advised, with Heptachlor to control both spittlebugs and alfalfa weevils. Conservation farming praised via Maurice Schroyer’s Middletown Valley operation showing balanced, economical production and adequate hay and silage. A separate note says steel for a dairy pavilion will be set next Wednesday after a cooperative effort by fair officials and dairy breeders. Five Red Clover: Hopkins farm points to a strong 30 acre stand with dense growth and potential high hay yield from carefully timed harvest. home grown seed remains best, with limited supply of Sehland seed and Kenyan alternatives noted.

College Park reflects on a beef cattle management program where breeding starts the cycle and marketing ends it. University of Maryland expert John Burne urges cattlemen to plan for fall 1985 feeder calf sales by breeding in the coming months. Buyers favor calves 6 to 8 months old, with uniform size and health testing for TB and Bangs recommended to meet feeder sales standards.
