EEF Daily would like to wish a Happy Veterans Day to those
who have served our nation to protect our freedom. I know it comes with
great sacrifice to step into the big shoes of a soldier, and I want to
take this opportunity today to show my appreciation. My grandpa, Alvin
Nolz, served in the Army. He enlisted when he was 20 years old, and from
1951-1953, he helped America in the Korean War by working as a cook in
the Service in both Japan and Korea.

Representatives from Texas’ cattle industry recently
discussed future research and educational partnerships related to fever
ticks at a summit hosted by the Texas AgriLife Extension Service. The
fever tick is a major concern to the livestock and wildlife industry,
said Dr. Tom Hairgrove, livestock systems program coordinator with
AgriLife Extension Service and Texas Veterinary Medical Diagnostic
Laboratory. It can carry and transmit Babesia, a blood parasite that can
kill adult cattle. Other hosts for the fever tick are horses, deer, elk
and other deer species.
