An irrigated pasture workshop is planned for late March. management to prove worthwhile. Clair Baldwin, range conservationist from the Ketchum Ranger District, reviewed area forest lands brush control projects. Baldwin discussed a air" machine developed by the Fire Laboratory in Missoula, Mont.

The machine utilizes forced draft hot air to bring brush temperatures up to a point where they would be Agricultural Extension Service. Featured speaker Don Fulton, state range conservationist for the Soil Conservation Service (SCS), Boise, used slides to illustrate "how grass grows" and discussed management of native range and range seedings. He emphasized that improvements such as range seedings, fencing and water development need CAREY Range seedings manag'ement, brush control and the Blaine County grass program were topics of a range workshop conducted at the Agricultural Building in Carey. About 25 county ranchers as well as several students from Shirl Reay's Carey High School agricultural class attended the workshop, jointly sponsored by the Blaine Soil Conservation District and the Blaine County killed and achieves an about 75 per cent kill. He also stated that researchers believe laser beams may be a future means of brush control.

James Eakin, county extension agent, who discussed the county grass program, compared grass and legume seedings that showed the effects of time of seeding, selection of species and type of seedbed preparation. He also presented material on range fertilization. Prescribed burning as a tool for resource management was also reviewed by Larry Hooker, range conservation, SCS.

Johnnie Kuest, Filer, former operator of Magic Mill, is beginning a new industry in the area.

He plans to begin recycling the plastic twine on a 13.5 ton piece of equipment just moved to his building in Filer, across from the former Magic Mill. Kuest said he is now appealing to farmers to save their used plastic baler twine A. 13 jC'-'A? ji4kwi.iiMati St i a rr; rf rmv. rn for his operation. He said it will be paid for on a quantity basis and how dean it is.

Before it can be recycled, the twine will have to be cleaned and overly dirty twine will not be useable. Kuest said farmers have difficulty disposing of the material as it burns poorly and gives off an offensive odor. As a result, he said, many fanners bury it and others let it pile up around their feeding areas. In the future, he said, his firm will be making a truck available to pick up the used twine but at the present he is hoping farmers will just save it and contact him so it can be obtained when needed. The plastic injection machine was purchased last summer and is located in a Filer building.

Because of the scarcity of the raw material. Kuest said, he has been unable to produce plastic products. By grinding and then melting the baler twine, he will have a source of raw material. Some can also be returned to twine manufacturers to help in the twine shortage, he said. When in operation the equipment will run on a continuous basis through the week, shutting only on weekends.

This will require three shifts for the 24 hour operation, with about three men per shift, he said.

Robert Ixing, Grand Junction, Colo. Dr. Long, senior vice-president of operations, Ankony Angus Corporation, used slides and live cattle in his presentation, sponsored by the Magic Valley Cattlemen's Association. The program, which drew approximately 450 members of the cattle industry, was presented at the Twin Falls Livestock Commission Company. The goal in beef cattle, said Dr.

Long, are those animals that will efficiently produce lots of high quality lean. He discussed genetics as a tool in the conversion of feed to lean meat. Since bone is usually the same percentage of carcass in all cattle, 12 to 16 per cent, cattlemen must concentrate on the ratio of fat to lean, according to Dr. Long. A variation as high as 30 per cent in muscle and 25 per cent in fat can occur in beef carcasses.

He empliasized the desirability of trim, medium to large sized, well-muscled cattle to those which are overly fat, small and in grain prices may result in larger numbers of cattle fed out on hay, grass, silage, roughages and forage. This will not alter the basic principles and carcass goals, he said. Grow th rates will be affected by the use of breeding with exotic types of cattle, but performance testing will be needed to determine the extent. Dr. I)ng graduated from Ohio State University, received his master and docorate degrees from Oklahoma State University, and taught there and at the University of Kentucky.

He was chairman of the Animal Science Division, University of Georgia, for 11 years before joining Ankony Angus Corporation in 1968. He has trained livestock buyers for several major meat packers and pioneered carcass evaluation and performance testing procedures. Data on fat steers used in the program will be made available by Independent Meat Company, Twin Falls. The presentation was made in cooperation with the Agriculture Department, College of Southern Idaho. College representatives video taped the program for later use bv students.

thinly muscled. Misuse of performance testing was rapped by Dr. Long. "Commercial bull testing stations have done more against performance testing than for it." For accurate results, all bulls must be tested, not just the good ones. Dr.

Iing said. How the tests were conducted and all results, not just favorable ones, must be made available. Two groups have shown great breed improvement through correct use of performance testing, he said Thoroughbred horse breeders have improved racing lines by elimination of those horses ith poorer speeds, and Holstein breeders have greatly improved dairy herds by picking those best suited to do the job. Dr. Long described the Ankony Scoring System, which he originated.

The system classifies animals visually according to freedom from waste, muscling, size of frame, structural soundness and breed and sex characteristics. The cattle are evaluated on a nine point scale in each of the economically important traits. Discussing current market trends, Dr. Ix)ng said the rise Chalhs. Dr.
