Let Grass Grow Before Grazing
Bqth the pasture and the ani
mal will be better off if grazing
new .spring growth is delayed
until the grass gets a good head
start.
The grass needs a good start in
order to hold up well during the
grazing season, according to A.
V. Allen, specialist in charge of
extension animal husbandry at
North Carolina State University.
And turning the livestock on
pasture too quickly can re.sult in
the animals eating too close to
the ground. Here, health dangers
lurk in the form of a variety ol
parasites.

bout the grass being three to five
inches high,” said Allen. ‘This
will provide enough leaf surface
to enable the plant to be firmly
e.stablished for the growing and
grazing season.”
He added that close grazing can
weaken the pasture plant. It can
also l(;ad to .serious internal para
site problems.
The NC3U livestock specialist
explained that warm, damp wea
fher, common in springtime, is
ideal for hatlching out worm eggs
lying on the ground. As they
hatch, the microscopic !r;.ae
swim in the film of moisture that
covers the ground and extends up
the blades of grass.
'Fortunately for the grazing
livestock, these potential parasite.s
don’t swim higher ulp he grass
blade than about an inch. There
fore, the cow, horse or ether ani
mal grazing a field will pick up
le.ss of the larvae if the gra.ss has
good growth in exscess of one j
inch.
“We suggest that pastures be
rotated during the gracing sea
son,” A'llen said. "This allows the
grass on one plot to grow while
the animals are grazing another
plot. This way, the danger of
over-grazing is reduced.”
.Another advantage from rota
tion — keeping animals off a plot
for 15 to 20 days helps break the
life cylcle of the parasite's and
slows down their buildup.
Allen added that regular treat
ment ol meet animals with a rec
ommended dewerme'r is also re-
quire-d for maximum parasite* con-
tret. V^etcrinarians or county ex-
t :;ision agents can provide de
tailed inform-ation on approved
i treatments and when to use the'm.

“The "Grand Mass in C M.n-'
■or” (K. 427) is widely considered
Mozart’s finest church composi
fion. This Mass has an unusual
history as it was compo.sed in
fulfillment '■f a vow and it was
left unfinished. The Mass cfwed
its origin to a solemn vow by
■Mozart that he would write a
.\Ias.s for his bride when he
brought her as his wife to Salz
burg in 1782. Though the Credo
and Agnus Dei were never com
pleted, this Mass nevertheless i.s
one of the few works of its kind
to be named along with “B Minor
Mass” of Bach.

May 6th Is The Time Of Decision
\
It is time for the voting citizens to
decide vYhat they want for Cleveland
County. Shall we stand still by saying
no to every issue that comes up, or shall
we try to meet the needs of our people?
I do not say close your eyes and say yes
to every issue, but I do say study our
situations, weigh the pro s and con s,
discuss our problems then work togeth
er to solve them.
I believe that due to the revalua
tion of property, our tax rate can be
lov/ered substantially and still keep a-
brecst of our present day needs.
I believe that we are finally on the
way to solving the garbage problem in
a way that will be satisfactory to the people and will also com
ply to state recommendations.
We have not moved as fast as I would like on some mat
ters. namely the hiring of a county manager. I still believe that
is the only way a county such a s ours can be run efficiently.
I am for quality education for all our children. I also back
our programs for the handicapped and underprivileged.
I am also for our Emergency Service program. Where else
do we get a greater service for such a small portion of our tax
dollar as our Voluntary Rescue Squads and Firemen?
We are now in the process of constructing the County
Complex Building, when completed it will meet the needs of
our Sheriff's department, bring our jail to state standards, and
give our courts and county employees adequate working
space.
If you want to move forward through cautious study and
consideration of our needs, and the programs that will* benefit
all the people of Cleveland County, then vote for me in the May
6th Primary.
