R.I.P Bert Spooner�
In nineteen fourteen in Southend on Sea�Bert Spooner and four siblings formed a happy family.�For his formative years living in Southend,�He made money from the pin ball machines he did mend.� �Later joining the police force, patrolling the pier.�At 4 miles long t’was so far, yet so near�To the bombing of London he witnessed it all,�Then joining the air force obeying the call.� �It was part of his history, was part of his life�And during it all he made Hilda his wife.�This elegant lady thought Bert was her world�With only son, John their life was unfurled.� �On retirement a decision was made to migrate�To Western Australia, you could call it fate.�They followed son, John and his family to here�1980 was the date, a new life with no fear.� �A few years on and again they did move�To King Street, Waroona, we all do approve.�Quambie Park was the planned next move for to stay�Unfortunately poor Hilda passed away.� �Bert continued the move to the Park for to live�And the happiness and joy to us all he did give.�It was sad to hear of the passing of Bert.�100 years of joy has now turned to hurt.� �His memory will live for many many years�Eventually turning sadness to joyful tears.�We love and miss you dearly, Bert�Rest in Peace. �

Several of our members are�still sick so we wish them a speedy�recovery and hope they will soon be�well enough to attend our meetings�again.�
My mum used to cut chicken, chop�eggs and spread butter or scrape on�bread on the same cutting board with�the same knife and no bleach. But we�didn’t seem to get food poisoning……�Our school sandwiches were wrapped�in wax paper in a brown paper bag,�not in ice-pack coolers. I can’t�remember getting eColi.�Almost of all of us would have rather�gone swimming the lake or at the�beach instead of a pristine pool (talk�about boring) no beach closures then.�We all took PE… and risked�permanent injury wearing a pair of�Dunlop sandshoes. No cross-training�athletic shoes with air-cushion soles�and built-in light reflectors that cost as�much as a small car. I can’t recall any�injuries but they must have happened�because they tell us how much safer�we are now.�We got the cane for doing something�wrong at school. They used to call it�
got that bee sting? I could have been�killed!�We played “King of the Hill” on piles of�gravel left on vacant building sites and�when we got hurt, Mum pulled out the�2/6d bottle of iodine and then we got�our backside spanked. Nowadays it’s�a trip to the emergency room,�followed by a 10 day dose of�antibiotics and then Mum calls the�lawyer to sue the contractor for�leaving a horribly vicious pile of gravel�where it was such a threat.�Not a single person I knew had ever�been told that they were from a�dysfunctional family. How could be�possibly have known that?�We never needed to get into group�therapy and/or anger management�classes. We were obviously so duped�by so many society ills, that we didn’t�even notice that the entire country�wasn’t taking Prozac�
discipline, yet we all grew up to�accept the rules and to honour and�respect those older than us. We had�50 kids in our class and we all learned�to read and write, do maths and spell�almost all the words needed to write a�grammatically correct letter�……FUNNY THAT!�We all said prayers in school�irrespective of our religion, sang the�National Anthem and no one got�upset.�Staying in detention after school�caught all sorts of negative attention�we wish we hadn’t got.�I thought that I was supposed to�accomplish something before I was�allowed to be proud of myself. I just�can’t recall how bored we were�without computers, play station,�Nintendo, X-box or 270 digital TV�cable stations. We weren’t.�Oh yea….And where was the�antibiotics and sterilization kit when I�

Mr. Criss P. Donut, from Palmerston�Parkway, writes of a curious problem:�Whilst out driving, he ran over a rabbit�and was quite perplexed at this�accident. A young lady pulled up,�assessed the problem, went back to�her car, returning with a spray can.�After two squirts, the rabbit jumped�back to life, took two steps forward,�turned and waved, two more steps�forward, turned and waved! He kept�this up for the next 10 minutes,�turning and waving until he went over�the Horizon.�What was in the can, Bullseye?

FAWCETT ROAD�on the west side of�Waroona, named after Captain�Theodore Fawcett, Military Expert,�Adventurer, Vintner, Explorer and�considerable lands owner, active in�the Murray District, from 1850. He�was a Cavalry officer of the 6th�Dragoon Guards and later to be the�Commanding Officer of the Pinjarra�Mounted Volunteers (the Peel�Regions only ever active military�force). Fawcett took up lands in the�1850's, firstly establishing Pinjarra�Park, then exploring land towards�Boddington. He became a road�builder, financing the cost out of his�own pocket, in the development of the�Hamel Block. , building�Fawcett Road�from Pinjarra to Hamel Fawcett�introduced scientific and meticulous�record keeping for Agriculture in�Western Australia, particularly in the�newly established, Hamel and Harvey�Agriculture District, introducing Vines,�sourced from Europe, which he�collected during his honeymoon on�the grand European tour.

Quambie Park loves to�see events that provide�opportunities for residents,�clients and senior�members of the Waroona�community come together�to share time and a few�laughs. The “Briscila Card�Game” for the local senior�Italian men held on 2 April�2014 was such an�occasion. The men came�together for a fame of�card, morning team and�lunch held in the Quiet�Room at Pam Corker House. The�men as shown in the photos caught�up with old friends and made some�new ones, while enjoying stories for�the old times and typical Italian lunch�and glass of wine. The event was a�huge success and everyone involved�asked when the next event would be�arranged. At this time a date for the�next event has not been scheduled,�but plans are in place. Quambie Park�understands the significance of�providing opportunities for our senior�men in the community to come�together in a social setting and our�Community Services team are keen to�support similar occasions.

Quambie Park lifestyle team (Nerida�and Kristal) have recently�undertaken training to gain�qualifications to enable�them to provide Tai Chi for�seniors. Since gaining�these qualifications the�ladies have developed a�program to share with local�seniors. Quambie Park�know that by senior�remaining active and�mobile they are preventing�
the risk of falls, and assisting them to�maintain social connection and good�mental health. If you drive by Pam�Corker early on a Tuesday morning�your will glimpse a group of our local�seniors participating in Tai Chi on the�front lawn. The session numbers are�growing and feedback from the�participants is very positive. At the�end of each 30 minute session Tai�Chi participants can socialise with a�cuppa before getting on with the rest�of their day.

ANZAC DAY IN WAROONA�
On a beautiful autumn day�approximately 400 people, the�largest number ever, gathered at the�Waroona War Memorial for the�ANZAC Day service. Veterans from�out of town swelled the ranks of the�Waroona/Hamel sub branch of the�RSL for the march from Memorial�Hall. It was led by the two ex-�service lady members of the R.S.L.�Ivy Wilson and Tracy Fickling.�The Service was conducted by�Frank Wood with John Mason in�charge of the music. Local children�played a prominent part in the�proceedings and did an excellent�job, performing their duties with�dignity and reverence. Jason�Robinson gave a beautiful reading�of a poem.�The R.S.L. sub branch began the�wreath laying followed by local�community groups. In all 15�wreaths were laid. At the conclusion�of the service an open invitation was�given to partake of refreshments in�the Memorial Hall. About 200�people attended some spilling into�the square. To everyone, young�and not-so-young, you honoured�magnificently those who made the�supreme sacrifice.�
“Lest we forget”�
The R.S.L. Waroona/Hamel sub branch�wishes to thank Waroona Country Café, IGA�and Caltex Petrol Station for their kind�donations and members of the public who�provided food. Your support helped make for�a very successful day. Lastly a thank you to�the teenagers who, when approached,�willingly helped set up the hall on Thursday.�

A Hanging on the Highway� opened to�wonderful reviews on Wednesday�April 16�th� when 100 guests were�welcomed at a light luncheon. On�Wednesday 23�rd� around 40 attended�the open community morning tea,�including residents of Pam Corker�House. By the time Despatch readers�
Quilt Show Extended�receive their May edition it is expected�that the exhibition will have been�viewed by well in excess of 1000�visitors. The vast majority of these�have travelled to town to see it and�this has resulted in a gain for local�businesses. Due to the resounding�success, the exhibitors have agreed�
to an extension of the showing. Visitor�Centre Manager and event co-�ordinator, Tracy Goldsworthy, said�“The comments received have been�amazing and well-deserved – our�textile & fabric artists, quilters and�patch workers are very talented and�many, many visitors have said it’s one�of the best exhibitions they’ve�attended. Extending by a week will�allow even more people the�opportunity to come in and we’re�particularly keen to see more locals�drop by. They will not be�disappointed.” The exhibition will�remain open to 3:30pm Monday May�5�th�, 2014. In addition to seeing the�beautiful works on display, visitors�have the opportunity to purchase from�a selected range of beautiful�handcrafts donated by our�craftspeople, and to purchase tickets�on a lucky numbers board, with all�proceeds to the Waroona Community�Car. Open daily 9:30am – 3:30pm at�Waroona Visitor Centre & Gallery, 37�South West Highway. Phone 9733�1506 for further information or find the�Gallery on Facebook.

also a larger run for the family’s bed.�A group of ladies from Coral’s Charity�Knitting Group recently sent twenty�eight beautiful rugs which were�gratefully received by Brother Olly�Pickett and Ms Beppie de Kuyer at�their Wangara workshops. I had a�tour of the premises and was�impressed by the professional�organisation – yet it is still run by�volunteers! They make the chairs�from materials with donations ($150 is�all it takes to transform a child’s life)�and pack them with everything the�receiving agent needs to assemble�them. The cost to the receiving agent�or organisation is that of the transport�only and wheelchairs are distributed�free of charge to the families. The�Christian Brothers’ schools around�Australia are big supporters both�financially and in the packing/�unpacking of boxes of supplies, etc.�Rotary also is a big player in the�project with Rotarians holding key�positions on the management�committee as well as Chief Executive�Officer (all voluntary). Also they�finance a lot of the transport costs.�
Supporters range from a 90 year old�lady who sews for at least three hours�per day making bags that contain the�tools to assemble the chairs, to boys�from a leading college who held a�wheel-a-�thon.�They�come�from all�walks of�life�around�Australia�to aid the�disabled�children�all over�the world.�From�Afghanis�tan to�Zimbabwe, with numbers of chairs�sent from one (El Salvador) to 6507�(Vietnam) each and every child�receives a life-changing gift.�For further information:�E�mail:�[email protected]�Website:�www.wheelchairsforkids.org�Nola Turner (08) 9733 1484�

his heading from the recent�Wheelchairs-for-Kids newsletter says�it all! In many countries around the�world parents have had to wheel their�severely disabled children around in�wheelbarrows – and very make-shift�ones at that. Many disabled children�were left to fend for themselves,�which included begging on the�streets, while parents worked to eke�out a meagre living for their families.�Wheelchairs for Kids has come to�their aid by providing wheelchairs built�to World Health Organisation (WHO)�specifications – 27,789 chairs in a�world that has 150 million disabled�children.

Chooks, Chooks and More Chooks�
Before getting chickens you need to�consider a few things. They require a�rain and wind-proof house with�ventilation and space. Cramming�chickens into a small space is�obviously bound to cause problems�both in terms of general health plus�an increase in aggression and other�undesirable vices amongst the group.�There are many kinds of housing from�permanent runs to movable houses�the general rule of thumb is a free�range layer should be allocated a�grass area of 4 square metres. So,�working on that basis, a small�backyard garden type flock of five�hens will require a total area of 20�square metres, which equates to a�rectangular run measuring 4x5m�(12x15’), but of course if you can�provide more space then do so.�Remember chooks can be allowed to�free range your garden and will return�back to the coop with a call and tasty�treat; most can be trained easily to�return to the coop as soon as the sun�starts to set. Remember when free�ranging they are more vulnerable to�predators. But also do keep in mind�chooks love to scratch for bugs, take�dust bathes and love tasty veggie and�flower seedlings, so sometimes�chooks may need restrictions to some�areas of your garden or only have�them out for a few hours each day.�You do not need a rooster to�encourage egg laying. Roosters are�banned in residential areas and are�only required if you want to breed.�Chooks require layer ratio 24/7�provided in a hopper and fresh cool�water 24/7. Yes your backyard�chickens can also eat your scraps but�
E�aster has already�been and gone an�only seven more�days left in April. I�
am pleased to report egg production�has improved to six per day. Penny�the latest edition (Duccle/Wyndotte X)�has settled in well and made mates�with a loner nicknamed wild thing. I�visited my sister Gay in Lesmurdie on�Good Friday and brought the usual�chocolate Easter Eggs but also�normal eggs for family members to�enjoy during the week. All four of�Wally and Joan Landwehr(Deceased),�siblings Lynette, Neil, Gay and Ken�were in attendance for a special�family day . The main course was a�large snapper cooked on an electric�barbecue in alfoil with herbs by�
this must be done in moderation�always feed scraps after 10am so that�your girls have already filled up on�their balance layer ration, fresh fruit�and veggie scraps are suitable but�limit bread and pasta.�There are many breeds in as many�different colours, however, do a little�research as some breeds are�more suited to your backyard than�others. Some of my favourite breeds�for family’s starting out are:�Australorp�: a strong dual purpose�
chicken,�the Black�Australorp�is a fun�breed.�The�Australorp�has a�
calm and friendly nature, hens lay�brown eggs, and plenty of them and�are very docile and calm. Their easy-�going nature makes them a good�candidate for families with small�children. Wyandotte: Glamorous,�showy, stately, and a bit of a diva is�how I would describe them. They’re�good foragers who prefer time to free�range. Wyandottes are good egg�layers, providing around 200 eggs per�year. Their eggs are a light to rich�brown colour�. Sussex�; have�everything; they are great layers of�tinted or light brown eggs--and they�lay right through the coldest weather.�They are dual purpose birds, though�fat-bodied and not prone to flying�when mature, so they are easily�fenced�Rhode island red� : They're�the do-everything bird: they lay�exceptionally well, they're valued for�
“Young Walter” as Peter Stacey would�say and it was delicious.�Unfortunately my wife, Maryann was�forced to stay behind and babysit the�chooks and more importantly one of�the cats, Leo who was hit by a car on�the Tuesday evening before Easter.�He used up three of his nine lives and�suffered a fractured toe and hairline�fracture of his right rear leg. It was�twice the size of his left leg. Thanks�to Ron, the local vet and staff, he is�recovering well but confined to inside�the house. He looked quite a sight�with purple and white bandages�(Dockers) to stabilise the injuries�along with medication. His mate�Boots is allowed outside to supervise�the chooks much to Leo’s�disappointment. The chooks enjoy�

their meat, they're extremely cold-�hardy, and hardy in general. They are�a smart chicken and not flighty at all -�very friendly bird.�Araucana:� Want�
something a little different but still a�good starter breed? try an Araucana�they have a relaxed character with a�striking appearance but for even more�fun most good quality araucana will�lay you lots of blue shelled eggs great�fun for the kids. For a bantam breed I�would�recommend:�Silkys, Pekins�or Belgium�D’uccles all�are very kid�friendly�breeds and�lay small�eggs.�
their fresh hay and also the driest�April spell for thirteen years. They�love free range activities consequently�they dig a hole and bury themselves� to keep cool and it is okay in Wally’s�Orchard but not the best for the�garden. Just a request for vehicles�travelling on Recreation Road; please�be aware of family pets and chooks�as they don’t unfortunately have much�road sense. Please stick to the speed�limit and at least the animals will have�a fighting chance of avoiding trauma�and injury.�Ken - The Chookyard Farmer�

By the Pest and Disease�Information Service (PaDIS).�
Horticultural crops at risk�Whether they are grown by�commercial producers or by home�gardeners, many food plants are�vulnerable to attack by two particular�pests which need to be controlled in�Western Australia. One is a little fly�from eastern Australia which has not�become established here yet,�although individual specimens have�been found several times. The other�is a large exotic parrot which has�already formed wild populations in our�state. Please report any sightings of�the following two agricultural threats�by ringing the Pest and Disease�Information Service on Freecall 1800�084 881.�Fruit’s worst enemy�With the exception of pineapple every�other kind of fruit and many�vegetables are hosts of Queensland�
fruit fly, which has spread far beyond�its home state to invade New South�Wales, Victoria and some Pacific�islands. If fruit is unprotected the�destruction can be 100 per cent, so�growers and gardeners in affected�areas have to strive to control the flies�by using a combination of fruit�bagging, spray baiting, mass trapping�and orchard hygiene.�How it spreads�Queensland fruit fly maggots are�carried inside fruit and vegetables.�Quarantine Western Australia (QWA)�examines all consignments of fresh�produce coming from interstate, to�check for the presence of Queensland�
fruit fly and other pests. QWA also�has regulations to deter private�travellers carrying fruit and vegetables�when they enter from interstate by�road, rail or air. All fresh produce must�be binned upon arrival. The�Queensland fruit fly is slightly bigger�than the Mediterranean fruit fly which�many of us are all too familiar. But a�distinct difference in colouring is the�best means of identification. The�thorax is reddish brown with two�yellow “shoulder patches”, the�abdomen is dark brown and the wings�are clear, unlike Mediterranean fruit�fly whose wings have brown bands.�Most outbreaks occur between�November and May, although they�may be seen in cooler months as well.�Problem parrots�Indian ringneck parakeets have the�
potential to do great damage in�orchards, vineyards, plantations of cut�flowers and crops such as cereal�grains. Their natural range is sub-�Saharan Africa and southern Asia.�However, they adapt quickly to new�habitats. Populations descended from�the escape or release of caged birds�have spread through Europe, the�
USA, the Middle East, Japan and�elsewhere. The Indian ringneck has a�red beak and a long tail, and its�natural plumage colour is grass-�green. However, breeders have�produced other body hues including�grey, white, yellow and blue. Mature�males have narrow black and pink�collars. The flight pattern is swift and�direct with rapid wing beats. These�parakeets have a variety of distinctive�screeching calls, notably a shrill “kee-�ak” unlike that of any native parrot.�How they escape�Today anyone owning an Indian�ringneck must confine it to a secure�cage or double door aviary, and must�have a permit to legally keep it.�Sometimes careless owners have�been to blame for these parakeets�escaping captivity. People may walk�outside with the bird sitting on their�shoulder, not expecting that one day�their pet may decide to make a dash�for freedom.�Whenever Indian ringnecks are�reported the Department of Agriculture�and Food (DAFWA) sends officers to�remove them from the wild. As a result�the species has not established self-�sustaining populations in Western�Australia. Unwanted birds should be�surrendered, not released. This may�be done through pet shops licensed to�sell aviary birds, through bird fanciers�licensed to keep Indian ringnecks, or�through animal rehoming charities.�Alternatively contact Invasive Species�at DAFWA.�

Post to PaDIS,�Department of Agriculture and Food,�3 Baron-Hay Court, South Perth WA�6151. You are also welcome to bring�in specimens in person.�For further information vis�it�www.agric.wa.gov.au�

An Obituary printed in the London Times. February 7, 2013�Today we mourn the passing of a�beloved old friend, Common Sense,�who has been with us for many years.�No one knows for sure how old he�was, since his birth records were long�ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He�will be remembered as having�cultivated such valuable lessons as:�- Knowing when to come in out of the�rain;�- Why the early bird gets the worm;�- Life isn't always fair;�- And maybe it was my fault.�Common Sense lived by simple,�sound financial policies (don't spend�more than you can earn) and reliable�strategies (adults, not children, are in�charge). His health began to�deteriorate rapidly when well-�intentioned but overbearing�
regulations were set in place.�Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged�with sexual harassment for kissing a�classmate; teens suspended from�school for using mouthwash after�lunch; and a teacher fired for�reprimanding an unruly student, only�worsened his condition.�Common Sense lost ground when�parents attacked teachers for doing�the job that they themselves had�failed to do in disciplining their unruly�children. It declined even further�when schools were required to get�parental consent to administer sun�lotion or an aspirin to a student; but�could not inform parents when a�student became pregnant and wanted�to have an abortion.�Common Sense�lost the will to live as the churches�
became businesses; and criminals�received better treatment than their�victims. Common Sense took a�beating when you couldn't defend�yourself from a burglar in your own�home and the burglar could sue you�for assault. Common Sense finally�gave up the will to live, after a woman�failed to realize that a steaming cup of�coffee was hot. She spilled a little in�her lap, launched a lawsuit and was�promptly awarded a huge settlement.�Common Sense was preceded in�death,�-by his parents, Truth and Trust,�-by his wife, Discretion,�-by his daughter, Responsibility,�-and by his son, Reason.�He is survived by his 5 stepbrothers;�- I Know My Rights�- I Want It Now�- Someone Else Is To Blame�- I'm A Victim�- Pay me for Doing Nothing�
Not many attended his funeral�because so few realized he was gone.�

Autumn is here and as we still wait for�those rains to come, it is important to�preserve your soil health, minimise�erosion and meet the nutritional�needs of your livestock.�It is the perfect time to be sowing new�pastures or making sure your existing�pastures are in great shape. A crucial�step in this process is to ensure you�are achieving good weed and insect�control.�All weed control will require several�years of repeated effort to reduce the�seed bank. It is best to use several�methods of control as relying solely�on herbicides (especially if you are�not rotating chemical groups), can�result in a build-up of herbicide�resistance which should be avoided.�Weeds that are common pasture�pests in winter include variegated�thistle, Paterson’s curse and Cape�tulip. For more information on�declared weeds and control methods�visit�agric.wa.gov.au�.� If you do have�
areas where there are significant bare�patches in your paddocks, spreading�some form of straw over the top can�be an option to prevent wind and�water erosion. If paddocks are bare�also consider placing stock into one�paddock and supplementary feeding�them in a confined area. It may be�necessary to continue to�supplementary feed animals for 6-8�weeks after the rains come and to�keep animals in the confinement�paddocks in order to allow the pasture�to establish.�When re-introducing animals that�have been maintained on dry�supplementary feeds to green�pasture, it is best to do it when their�stomachs are full. Some stock may�experience digestive problems, so be�sure to monitor them closely. It can�take 2-3 weeks for a ruminant’s�stomach bacteria to adjust to green�feed. Continuing to supplement their�diet with hay can help with the�
transition from dry to green feed. Any�pregnant or lactating animals will have�higher nutritional needs, so it is�important they are given access to�enough feed. Dealing with any�concerns you have about your�property before they get too big, will�keep you on track to developing the�property of your dreams.�Visit our Facebook page at�facebook.com/�DAFWAsmalllandholders� for up-to-�date information and great tips on�managing your property! We would�love you to like us!

MAY 2014 Page 31�Waroona Veterinary News - Winter in Coming�
Believe it or not, cold and hopefully�wet weather will be here very soon.�Clipping�: If your pet is due for�clipping do it soon before we get the�really cold weather. Small pets that�are clipped back may require coats at�night if they live outside.�Fleas:� Don’t stop flea treatment just�because we get cooler weather. Fleas�tend to breed year round and if you�don’t keep flea treatment up to date�over winter you may be overwhelmed�with a backyard (or home) full of fleas�come spring time. And don’t forget to�treat ALL pets in the household at the�same time. Often we find the forgotten�cat becomes the source of fleas even�if the dogs in the household are all�treated.�Arthritis:� If your pet struggled with�the cold weather last year start�arthritis treatments now! You may�start to see your pet exhibit some of�the following signs - favouring a limb,�difficulty sitting or standing or�appearing stiff, hesitancy to jump, run�
or climb stairs, lack of appetite,�decreased activity or less interest in�play, attitude or behaviour changes�(such as interacting less with family�members of other pets) and�reluctance to cover faeces or urine in�the litter tray (cats). If your pet exhibits�any of these signs talk to your vet�about what can be done to make your�pet more comfortable. Some aging�pets will benefit from�switching to a�senior specific diet.� The aim of�feeding a senior specific diet is to help�support the aging immune system, a�potentially more sensitive digestive�tract, joints and aid in maintaining�lean muscle mass. They often also�have reduced levels of phosphorus�and sodium to help maintain heart�and kidney health. A good quality�senior food should contain higher�levels of antioxidants, high-quality�easy to digest protein, essential fatty�acids as well as glucosamine and�chondroitin sulphate to help support�healthy joints and cartilage. If you�prefer not to use a commercially� (continued on next page)�
based food, try adding glucosamine�and chondroitin sulphate supplements�as well as Omega 3 Fatty Acids from�fish oils. Supplements such as�Omega 3 Fatty Acids may be of�benefit to pets suffering from arthritis.�Colic:� With the first rains has come a�hint of green in the paddocks. Whilst it�looks nice, this is the time that we see�most sand-related�colics in horses�.�They pick the greens including a nice�big clump of sand with the roots. This�can accumulate in the large intestines�and cause all sorts of trouble. Colic�due to mild or severe gut pain is the�most frightening and costly�presentation, but we also see chronic�diarrhoea and ill thrift due to sand.�You can reduce the risk of sand�impaction by continuing to supply�good quality and quantity of�supplemental feed. Good teeth and�worm control also seem to help, so�check the teeth and worm your horses�
MAY 2014 Page 32�
if you have not done so lately. If your�horse gets colic you usually see�pawing at the ground, restlessness,�rolling and kicking at the flanks. If this�does not settle quickly with walking it�is time to call the vet. Colics can�easily become fatal if unattended or�unlucky.�Worms:� For owners of�sheep� and�other ruminants such as�goats� or�alpacas�, make sure your animals are�wormed.�Barber’s pole worm� is a�concern at this time of year. With�Barber’s pole worm, large worm�burdens can develop quickly and in�acute cases can cause death without�any warning signs. Barber’s pole�worms suck the blood of their hosts�and symptoms are often related to the�degree of blood loss. Signs can�include: Weakness or collapse if�driven, anaemia (evident by white�mucous membranes around the eyes�and white gums - rather than pink)�and in some cases fluid filled under�
(Vets Article continued from page 31)�jaw swellings. What to do - Make�sure you worm your animals with an�appropriate drench. Faecal egg�counts can be useful in directing your�worming program. For detailed�information on Barber’s pole worm�see the Department of Agriculture�Farm Note on the subject (available�on the internet at http://�www.agric.wa.gov.au/objtwr/�imported_assets/content/pw/ah/par/�fn2005_barberspole.pdf)�

Waroona Football Club News by Forward Pocket:�Waroona Football�Club results in their�first three games�have been mixed�despite an�impressive pre-�season run of�victories. All three�squads - League,�Reserves and Colts�have won one game�
out of three to date and hopefully that�trend can be reversed against�Centrals this Saturday on our home�ground. Centrals have been on a�huge recruitment drive this year and�former WAFL stars Theo Adams and�
Ryan Murphy head that list. Adams�and Daniel “Buckets” Wilson their�Vice Captain heading the PFL�Goalkickers list. Hopefully Waroona�will regain some of their playing list�who return from injury, being�unavailable thro work or weddings. It�was a shock prior to the Easter break�to lose all three games to Halls Head�for the first time since they joined the�Peel Football League about seven or�eight years ago. A sincere thankyou�to all local supporters and patrons�who purchased wood raffle tickets on�Easter Saturday. Your continued�support is much appreciated. The new�bar improvements will again be tested�
in our second home game on�Saturday afternoon and the Mini�grandstand is a great place to watch�local football matches which are of a�very high standard.�Thank you to the Shire for further�grass (improvements) and the�replanting of areas which were�impacted upon by black beetles or�wear and tear. Hopefully the rain�which is predicted on Sunday will�further improve the playing surface�arena.� I will have more to report in the June�edition and a Premiership ladder for�readers to inspect. -�Forward pocket.�

NATURE NOTES�
Change of habits in local fauna�
Orthinologists have noted that the�once rare, but now common male�“Big mouthed bowl bearing bird “�having shed its summer plumage of�white with a bright red neck has not�migrated this year but is still hanging�around in its winter plumage.�This bird is noted for its loud call of�“yard on, draw to kitty” and its distress�cry of “wrong bias wrong bias.” It is�sometimes called the camel bird�because of its capacity for liquid�intake.�Its breeding habits are obscure as it is�never seen with a female.�
