VOSBURG – Standertonners was gerat vir die jaarlikse WegRy Bull Run wat verlede week in Vosburg in die Noordkaap gehou is. Dié jaarlikse wedren lok deelnemers van regoor Suid-Afrika en die voorwaardes is dat die voertuig wat ingeskryf word ouer as 30 jaar moet wees en minder as R20 000 in waarde is. Standerton se spanne wat ingeskryf het, was die Arm Biere met Hennie Swanepoel Mark van Vuren, Rean Geldenhuys, Daan Jacobs, Danie Kriek en Piet Nienaber, die Tikkel Tokkel met Abe Foley, Russel Kimmins, Hein Human en die Willehonne met Johan Geyser en Riaan Starbuck.

Die voertuig wat inskryf moet op eie stoom in Vosburg aankom. Indien dit nie moontlik is nie, sal die span gepenaliseer word, maar die voertuig moet padwaardig wees. Die spanne moet volgens ’n tema aantrek en die voertuig moet daarvolgens versier word. Punte word daarvoor toegeken.

Tydens die byeenkoms is daar twee dae waarop daar meegeding word om die titel van WegRy Bull Run-kampioen 2015. Die eerste dag is ’n tydren-roete en die tweede dag is items op die pan.

Die eerste dag (Vrydag) behels ’n tydren-roete in die Vosburg-omgewing. Die doel van die roete is egter nie om dit so vinnig as moontlik af te handel nie. Dit gaan ’n tydreël-toets (regularity raid) formaat aanneem. Dit beteken dat daar ’n spesifieke tyd tussen kontrolepunte sal wees waarbinne jy die afstand moet aflê en ’n totale tyd vir die hele roete. Hierdie tyd sal ooreenstem met die nasionale spoedbeperking op openbare paaie, asook veilige bestuur. Indien die bestuurder in ’n korter tyd as die aangeduide tyd die gedeelte voltooi, is hy gepenaliseer.

Hennie Swanepoel sê die manne is dit eens dat dit vet pret was en dat hulle na die volgende uitstappie uitsien. Edi

Sweet, stof en Standertonners

PRETORIA - The Executive Mayor of Le-kwa Local Municipality Counsellor LBR Dhlamini was a victim of a robbery in the Gauteng Province on Friday morning last week. The Mayor was attending the 4th ANC National General Council at Gallagher Estate, in Midrand.

It is reported that the Mayor and others booked in at a guest house in Pretoria. In the early hours of Friday morning, unknown rob-bers allegedly attacked the guest house, and all guests were held up and robbed of their valuable items. They were tied up as the rob-

bers helped themselves to everything they could land their eyes on.

In the process they made off with the new mayoral BMW X5. The mayor could not be reached for comment. Lekwa Municipal Manager Mr Linda Tshabalala confirmed the incident.

He said that the Executive Mayor sustained minor injuries and the mayoral vehicle was recovered by Tracker and is safe with the po-lice. He urged the public not to panic, as the Executive Mayor was fine except that he is naturally traumatised by the incident. DM

STANDERTON - An adult male was taken to Standerton Provincial Hospital on 3 October at about 23:40, but succumbed to several stab wounds shortly after his arrival. According to the investigating officer the man was brought to hospital with a private vehicle.

Hospital staff were able to identify the man and they were also able to obtain his residential address before he passed away. The man resided in the Sakhile hostels. A murder case is under investigation. JD

Man dies of several wounds VAL - Members of SAPS in Val are still

trying to come to terms with the death of their colleague who took his own life after allegedly fatally shooting his wife on Tues-day last week. According to the Commu-nication’s Officer of Val SAPS, Constable V Lephoto, the deceased officer, Constable Mlindi Esau Mkwebane, aged 32, was off duty on Tuesday when the incident hap-pened.

He reportedly met his wife on the road after she had been to the police station at 14:30. She was on her way to her parent’s home on a farm not far from the station.

It is not known what happened between the couple. It is alleged that Mkwebane pulled out his service pistol and shot his wife three times. The 24-year-old Phumzile Mdlalose died on the spot. It is reported that Mkwebane fled the scene in his private

vehicle. When police received the news, a manhunt of their own began. Police of-ficers from Standerton, Greylingstad, Em-balenhle, Secunda and Balfour joined the manhunt. A few hours later Mkwe bane was found dead in his car on the Embalenhle road.

It is reported that he allegedly shot him-self in the head and died instantly. Police found his service pistol in his hand.

The couple was reportedly staying in Embalenhle. Cst Lephoto confirmed that a murder case was opened at Val SAPS. Members of SAPS had to undergo counsel-ing on Wednesday after they were trauma-tised by the tragedy.

Constable Mkwebane was described by colleagues as a humble and friendly person at all times, he did not show any signs of depression before the tragedy. DM

STANDERTON - When an alleged thief was discovered by the community, he was brutally assaulted by angry community members who felt enough is enough. They cannot stand the criminals who rule their streets anymore. Thanks to members of the CPF, who had their hands full to save him from the mob justice, the man is still alive. The timely arrival of the CPF chairman aided the rescue.

He took the suspect to the police station. According to Mr Charles Msibi of the CPF, the 24-year-old suspect was found in possession of stolen goods stolen from a house in Extension Six.

According to Ms Sophie Mzini the suspect sneaked into her house while she was in the outside toilet. He allegedly

stole two sets of hair pieces, a cellphone, an identity document, and a toiletry bag. He then went to another house in the neighbourhood attempting to sell a cellphone and an identity document. The potential buyer recognised the photo on the ID and the suspect reportedly ran away.

On Thursday morning he was spotted making rounds in the streets of Extension Six, he was confronted by an angry community and got a beating. The suspect is known to be a drug addict and has the reputation of housebreaking and theft.

Lt Nhlabathi of Standerton Police confirmed that the suspect will appear in court. He was taken to hospital for treatment after he was severely beaten by the angry crowd. DM

STANDERTON - Lekwa Local Municipality started to re-place conventional meters with smart meters from August 2015. The pilot project which started at Kosmos Park, was met with resistance from outrageous community who did not want to have anything to do with the installation of smart meters. According to the residents spokesperson Mr Tebello Tsotetsi, the community complained about the municipality embarking on making changes without proper consultation about matters affecting them.

The community claim the electricity consumption is very high on the smart meters bringing in financial constraints.

Worst of all, once the old meter is replaced, the consumer loses out all the previous units purchased.

He said the community held various engagements with Le-kwa Municipality officials including the Municipal Manager, but their complains and grievances fell on deaf ears.

The Municipal Manager has since abandoned discussions

and engagements with the community. As a result, the com-munity of Kosmos Park resolved to stage a march protest against the installation of smart meters.

Mr Tsotetsi confirmed that the protestors will hand over a memorandum to the Executive Mayor of Lekwa Municipality on 19 October.

When contacted for comment on the allegations, Municipal manager Mr L Tshabalala admitted that consultation and com-munication with the community of ward 8 in particular was a challenge because people don’t attend ward committee meet-ings, monthly general ward meetings and Mayoral Imbizos.

However communication and proper consultation can be improved with the community of ward 8. According to the Municipal Manager it is not true that smart meters have a negative impact on electricity consumption.

The system is of such that every unit purchased is accounted for, many consumers had their electricity connections bridged and now they cannot do that anymore.

In response to the units that are lost he said that when the new smart meter is installed, five units are provided for the consumer, and thereafter the consumer is expected to register a new smart meter with the name of the consumer, ID docu-ment, and correct physical address, once that is upgraded in the system the consumer is credited with the units left in the old meter box, to this end reloading of the previous units has been successful.

Discussions with community leadership have been going well, until such time when there was a misunderstanding and some leaders opted to tell lies to the community, some leaders did not engage in good faith, truthfully and sincerely, that led to the communication breakdown.

Mr Tshabalala in conclusion said that Lekwa Municipality, led by the Executive Mayor Counsellor Dhlamini remains committed to improving Municipality operations in public participation and economic growth. DM

STANDERTON Inwoners van Standerton en omgewing se aandag word daarop gevestig dat daar Dinsdag, 20 Oktober, ‘n dag van verootmoediging diens by die Gereformeerde kerk tussen 13:00 en 14:00 sal

plaasvind. Hierdie diens sal deur Ds

Bennie Marais van Charl Cilliers waargeneem word.

2 Timothy 1: 7 (NLT) 7“For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love and self-discipline.” What are you affraid of today? Do you know that when you are a child of God, He gives you His Holy Spirit, which means through growing in our relationship with Jesus. His spirit working in us will surely bring us to a place of becoming completely fearless. In John 14: 1(NIV) Jesus said: “Do not let your hearts be troubled.

You believe in God, believe also in me.” Jesus is giving us practical tools in this scripture by saying that when you experience fear in your flesh, believe in God, in His word and believe in Jesus’s perfect and eternally complete and finished work at the cross. What happend at the cross? In John 3: 1617 (NIV) it is written that God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.

For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. Okay, but what should we believe about Jesus?

My friend, you should believe that Jesus loves you completely, fully

and intimately yesterday, today and forever. Only when you receive into your own heart His agape(selfsacri

ficing) love at the cross of Calvary for you personally, will fear be banished from your heart and mind forever.

The only barrier preventing us from allowing ourselves to believe in God’s love for us is our fear of God’s condemnation for our sins.

My friend Jesus, through His love, mercy and grace(unmeritedfavour) overpaid the price for our sins perfectly and eternally on the cross, forever removing this barrier between us and God. (Hebrews 8:12 NIV) Need more assurance? Read 1 John 4: 1718 which says that, by this (our union and communion with Him), love is perfected within us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgement; because as He is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love. You see, our love for God and for one another is full of flaws, faults and conditions, but Jesus’s love for us is unconditionally perfect, and when you start receiving His love into your heart, you will begin living with no fear and start experiencing the fullness of God in every area of your life.

STANDERTON - ‘n Veldbrand wat Maandag, 12 Oktober, uitge-breek het, het duisende rande se weiding vernietig.

Na beraming het ongeveer 30 hektaar weiding afgebrand met ‘n geskatte waarde van R60 000.

Standerton Brandweer, Afri-Forum, Lekwa Fire Protection Association en omliggende boere het in die skroeiende hitte en sterk

wind geswoeg om die vlamme onder beheer te bring.

Geen lewensverliese, mens of dier, is teen druktyd aangemeld nie.

Die koste vir die bestryding, wat die brandweer se koste uit-sluit, beloop meer as R3 000. Volgens ooggetuies het die brand vermoedelik by die asgate ont-staan. JD

‘n Voertuig het Maandag, 12 Ok-tober, in Maraistraat in Azalea in ‘n moddergat beland. Hierdie gat is waar die hoof watertoevoerpyp etlike weke gelede hertsel is, maar nog nooit behoorlik opgevul is nie. Volgens ‘n inwoner het ‘n kind verlede week ‘n ent verder af in dieselfde straat ook in ‘n soortge-lyke gat geval en sy been gebreek. Die inwoners en omstanders op hi-erdie toneel was duidelik ontevrede met die plaaslike munisipaliteit se onvermoë om werk af te handel.

STANDERTON - A 44-year-old resident from Standerton parked his Volkswagen Citi Golf in front of his friend’s house on Sunday, 27 September, at 19:00 and went inside the house to col-lect her. When they exited the house roughly half an hour later, the car was stolen, together with a black and yellow Samsung

BT330 cellphone that was inside the vehicle.

They searched the area but could not find any traces of the car, and reported the incident to the Sakhile Police. The vehicles registration number is SCT 912 GP and anyone with information must please phone Sakhile Police at 017 714 7144. JD

STANDERTON - Clear Choice Builders Construction workers at Standerton Correctional Services Centre downed tools on Friday, 9 October. They picketed outside the construction site following unresolved matters pertaining to wages and working conditions.

The picketing was supported by SANCO, Cosatu, and NAFCOC. Mr Madoda Sigaza of SANCO told the media that workers are demanding a living and decent wages.

They have been engaging with construction management for a long time and their demands were not met, claiming disparities in wages between local labour and those from outside Standerton.

They complained about the failure of the company to issue salary advices when they get their monthly wages and about not been registered for Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF) with the Department of Labour. Cosatu is not happy that the multi-million government project is not benefitting the local community.

Only 63 people from the local community have been employed on the construction site. The majority of people are from outside of Standerton as far as Gauteng. 80% of the sub-constructors are from outside of Standerton.

Workers vowed not to go back to work until the company CEO comes down from Johannes-burg to address their demands. Cosmos News spoke to the site manager Mr John Van Niekerk about workers’s demands, he admitted that for the last three months workers did not receive salary advices due to logistical problems from the company head office in Johannesburg, but the matter has been partially resolved and as from September salary advices were issued.

He denied allegations that workers are not registered with the Department of Labour. Regarding wage disparities, he denied the allegations, he said that only four employees earn

more due to their seniority such as supervisors and health safety officers, Cosatu says that more local sub-contractors must be given the opportunity to benefit in this

project which started in 2014 with phase one expected to be completed in 2017. DM

Construction workers down tools

CCB construction workers took to the streets in their ANC T-shirts protesting because of wage disputes on Friday last week. The march was organised by SANCO.

‘n Testament bly maar ‘n onaardige onderwerp, en dus is die realiteit dat die meeste mense nie die moeite doen om ‘n testament op te stel nie. Of dit luiheid of sommer net ongemak met die onderwerp is, besef bitter min mense regtig die erns van die saak.

Die indruk bestaan dat net ouer mense testamente moet hê – terwyl die harde realiteit eintlik bewys dat alle volwassenes van alle ouderdomme, alleenlopers inkluis, baat by ‘n testament vind. Testamente is veral belangrik vir ouers met minderjarige kinders – of jy nou aansienlike bates het of nie. Indien jy nie die keuse van voogdyskap in jou testament aandui nie, sal die staat besluit wie na jou minderjarige kinders moet omsien en so dalk baie hartseer en ontwrigting veroorsaak.

Sodra jou testament opgestel is, onthou om dit op hoogte te hou. In die geval dat jy nog ‘n kind het, moet die kind se naam by jou testament gevoeg word – al is dit net deur te verklaar dat die kind niks moet erf nie.

Volwassenes sonder gesinne het ook ‘n verantwoordelikheid. Sonder ‘n testament is jou wense heeltemal irrelevant, en sal jou boedel deur die Wet op Intestate Erfopvolging verdeel

word. Alhoewel die wet regverdig in sy verdeling is, waarom jou beheer aan die staat oorgee? Mens werk so hard vir alles wat jy het – jou huis, jou motor, en spaar maand na maand aan jou hardverdiende salaris; net om letterlik “boedel oor te gee”. Met jou testament het jy die vryheid om jou bates van die hand te sit na jou wense. Met jou testament kan jy besluit aan wie om jou bates te bemaak.

Talle mense stel geliefdes en vriende as eksekuteurs van hul boedels aan om kostes te bespaar, maar besef nie die druk waaronder hul geliefdes verkeer nie. Dit is belangrik dat iemand wat oor die nodige kennis en ervaring beskik aangestel word om jou boedel so vinnig en pynloos moontlik af te handel.

Jou testament is die belangrikste deel van jou boedelbeplanning, en moet dus eenvoudig, geldig en uitvoerbaar wees.

Vir meer inligting oor testamente of enige ander finansiële raad, skakel gerus vir Ewie Saunders of Gerrit Coetzee, finansiële adviseurs by Anderson & Vennote by 017 719 1462 of besoek hulle by Kerkstraat 6D, Standerton, 2430.

ERMELO - Die AfriForum-tak in Ermelo het in samewerking met die Msukaligwa Plaaslike Munisipaliteit ‘n projek van R60 000 van stapel gestuur om slaggate in die dorp te herstel as deel van AfriForum se 10 Dae van Selfstandigheid-veldtog. Tydens die veldtog word meer as 100 aksies aangepak wat onder meer fokus op die herstel van slaggate, die skoonmaak van vullisterreine, begraafplase en strate, die herstel van straatligte asook die behandeling en skoonmaak van besoedelde riviere. Hein Gonzales, AfriForum se provinsiale koördineerder

Die Standerton AfriForum tak het Maandagaand, 12 Oktober, om ongeveer 19:00 die groot slaggat voor Standerton SuperSpar herstel. Dit is maar net nog ‘n projek wat deur hulle van stapel gestuur is om die middedorp meer toeganklik vir motoriste te maak.

Slaggate in Ermelo herstelvir Mpumalanga, sê dat AfriForum opgewonde is oor die samewerkingsverhouding tussen die organisasie en die munisipaliteit. “Ons het R60 000 se teer aan die munisipaliteit verskaf, wat ŉ span beskikbaar gestel het om die slaggate reg te maak. Ons sien uit daarna om in die toekoms nog projekte saam met die munisipaliteit aan te pak.” Die 10 Dae van Selfstandigheid is aangepak in aanloop tot Saterdag, 10 Oktober waarop die Solidariteit Beweging sy Toekomsberaad in Pretoria sal hou.

It is with great sadness that Toyota South Africa Motors announces the untimely passing of Mr Jimmy Loubser, Owner, of Ermelo Toyota and Pongola Toyota. He previously owned Loerie Toyota in George. He is survived by his wife, Noeline, sons, Glen and Vincent, daughter Tanya and his siblings Francois and Anita. Jimmy left the corporate Toyota/Renault SA fold in 1974 to take up the challenge of becoming a retail dealer in Ermelo.

He persevered, inspired, and successfully built the Toyota name as the ‘brand of choice’ for any potential customer in the town.

He was very involved with the upliftment of the community and as such served on many committees and councils. He also served on business bodies within the Toyota family and his immediate business circles. He was known for his commitment, passion and great levels of exuberant enthusiasm.

Over the last few years he also displayed business savvy with new property developments. He will be fondly remembered as a larger-than-life character, a true Toyota Legend, with an unbridled passion for the Toyota Brand. The funeral will be held on Thursday, 15 October, at his farm, Skipskop, 7 km from Ermelo on the Breyten Road.

STANDERTON - Colonel FB Motubane is the new Station Commander of Standerton Police. Col Motubane needs no introduction in the community.

He was the commander previously until 2011 when he was transferred to Balfour as the Cluster Commander.

In 2013 he was transferred to Ermelo where he served as the Station Commander. In 2014 he was appointed as the Cluster Commander for Ermelo, a position he held until August 2015 when he was transferred back to Standerton to take up the post vacated by Col E Mackenzie who has since retired. DM

ERMELO - Die ‘ErrieUnie’ het dit ten doel om alle persone – ouers, oudleerlinge, onderwysers, oudonderwysers en vriende van Hoërskool Ermelo – wat bande met die skool gebou en gebind het, deel van die organisasie te maak. Dit is op 2 Augustus 2012 gestig en spog hierdie jaar met ‘n groot ledetal.

Die organisasie se missie is om met behulp van ledegeld, donasies en borge in die opvoeding en onderrig van al die leerlinge van die skool te belê. Die unie het die afgelope drie jaar uitstekend in hierdie doelwit geslaag en 2015 is geen uitsondering nie.

Die voorsitter van die ErrieUnie en oudleerling van Hoërskool Ermelo, mnr Jan Grey, het Woensdag, 23 September, ‘n tjek van R60 000 aan die hoof, mnr Pieter Grobler, oorhandig. Dit was uitsluitlik vir die installering van nóg interaktiewe witborde in klasse.

Die hoof en personeel wil graag van hierdie geleentheid gebruik maak om hul dank aan dié organisasie wat in die toekoms van

STANDERTON With heat wave conditions currently being experienced across several parts of the country, ER24 urge people to be cautious. The SA Weather Service has warned that these high temperatures are likely to last with maximum temperatures remaining at around 33°C every day. According to the weather service they take the average of the hottest month and add five degrees to it. If you have that condition for three days persistently, that’s when you have a heat wave.

Heat exhaustion could lead to serious complications, including a heat stroke which could be lifethreatening.

ER24 offers the following tips:1. Stay well hydrated by drinking a lot of

water.2. Keep a close eye on babies, the elderly

and children. Ensure they stay well hydrated as well.

3. Remember to ensure pets have a cool place to relax and cool clean water to drink readily available.

4. Try to stay out of direct sunlight.5. Wear the appropriate clothing and en

sure you use sunscreen.

Laerskool Standerton se eerste hokkiespan het in September teen agt skole tydens die jaarlikse Super 8-toernooi in Vanderbijlpark afgereken en ‘n speler opgelewer wat met ‘n spoggerige trofee huis toe is. Lerato Khuma-lo is as die beste verdedigende speler van die toernooi aangewys. By haar is afrigter, me Meyera Oosthuizen.

PROVINCIAL - The DA in Mpumalanga would like to congratulate Mpumi Lephoko, the first ever South African for being crowned Miss Africa Tourism Universe 2015. Lephoko who competed against 36 models from all over the world, took the crown at a very ‘glitzy’ final in the Middle Eastern country of Lebanon this month.

Coming from the dusty streets of Msogwaba Township in Mbombela, her main responsibility will be to promote African Tourism on the world stage. This achievement has also placed Mpumalanga on the world map. Lephoko is the epitome of what South African women are known for, beauty and brains.

Among her achievements Lephoko has also established an anti-drug campaign called “SAY NO TO Drugs” and has recently launched the Mpumi Lephoko Foundation, which amongst other things, raise funds to build houses for the underprivileged. The DA wishes her every success and prosperity in all her duties. She is not only a true ambassador of Mpumalanga but for South Africa as well. This recognition will give her an opportunity to spread her wings. (Jane Sithole, MPL). JD

Kansa-relay reg om die draai

Die Nasionale Wolkwekersvereniging van Suid Afrika het die wolskaap bestuurskalender vir Oktober en November vrygestel.

Suiplammers (Augustus & September se lammers)Doseer teen melklintwurm. Gebruik ‘n middel wat Albendasool as aktief bevat. Wag met lintwurmbeheer totdat die lammers minstens drie maande oud is of wanneer daar lintwurmsegmente in die mis voorkom. Doseer met Vitamien A & E en minerale. Die lammers het dit baie nodig, veral as hulle nog nooit groen weiding gevreet het nie.

Moenie die lammers noual teen siektes soos bloutong, bloednier of pasteurella inent as die ooie daarteen ingeent was nie. Wag tot hulle minstens 12 weke oud is, anders bou hulle nie self immuniteit op nie, omdat die bies se teenliggame nog in die bloed teenwoordig is en die opbou van eie immuniteit keer.

Die ooie se melk sal van nouaf vining begin afneem en die lammers sal hulself nou moet begin handhaaf. Dit is nou te laat vir kruipvoeding. Die beste praktyk nou is om die ooie en lammers na vars weiding te skuif sodat die lammers goeie voeding ontvang. Indien nie, sal hul groei begin stil staan. Hul moeders is hul grootste kompetisie vir voer. As die voer skraps is, kan daar oorweeg word om die lammers vroeg te speen, mits hulle natuurlik aan sekere minimum standaarde voldoen.

Hulle moet minstens 22kg wees en minstens 60 dae oud wees. Hierdie vroeg gespeende lammers behoort ‘n goeie produksielek hoog in deurvloei proteien te ontvang.

Ooie wat in Oktober/November gepaar gaan wordOoie moet groei in kondisie om goed ram te vat. Prikkel die ooie deur hulle na spaarveld te skuif 14 dae voordat die ramme bykom of gee hulle prikkelvoeding. Sjokolade mielies met 4% vismeel werk goed as prikkelvoeding.

Gee die ooie 150g hiervan per dag, vanaf 14 dae voordat

die ramme bykom tot 21 dae na die ramme bygesit is. Koggelramme werk baie goed hierdie tyd van die jaar om die ooie op hitte te kry. Koggel die ooie net vir 9 dae en sit dan die ramme by.

Die heel vrugbaarste ooie kom op hitte binne nege dae nadat die koggelramme bygesit is. Veertien dae is te lank, want dan sal die heel vrugbaarste ooie reeds weer van hitte af wees. Mikskeer die ooie wat gepaar gaan word, as hulle langwol het (langer as 6 maande wolgroei).

Die ramme sukkel om ooie met langwol behoorlik te penetreer. Ent die ooie teen ensoötiese aborsie ses weke voor paring (as u vermoed dat u lammers daaraan verloor). ‘n Tipiese teken dat daar ‘n probleem in u kudde is, is ‘n verlies aan lammers tussen scan en merk, asook lammers wat swak is by geboorte en kort daarna vrek. Ent die ooie teen bloednier en pasteurella met ‘n kombinasieentstof ses weke voor paring.

Doseer die ooie met ‘n breëspektrum wurmmiddel, indien nodig. Neem mismonsters om die nodigheid van ‘n dosering te bevestig. As die ooie lanklaas groen weiding gehad het, sal hulle goed reageer op die aanvulling van vitamien A en minerale (inspuitbaar of dosering). As diere tekens toon van blindheid, is daar ‘n vitamien A tekort.

Ooie met lammers (Augustus/September gebore)Soogendroog die ooie. Die wie se spene vuil is, moet gemerk word, want hulle het nie ‘n lam by hulle nie. Sodra hulle weer tydens ‘n soogendroog sonder ‘n lam loop, moet hulle geprul word. Hulle lam, maar maak nie lammers groot nie.

Foutiewe spene of swere in uiers kan ook redes wees waarom hulle nie ‘n lam het nie. Ent die ooie met lewendige entsowwe soos bloutong, slenkdal, ensomeer.

RammeAlle bestuursaksies van die ramme, moet minstens 8 weke voor paring afgehandel wees (dit moes dus al klaar gewees

het ons sluit die lys van aksies wel in). Ramme kan tydelik onvrugbaar word as hulle gehanteer word of met lewendige entstof behandel word.

Dit vat dan 8 weke vir hulle om weer hul semenvolume aan te vul. Dit sluit aksies soos die volgende in:

1. Toets die ramme vir vrugbaarheid en geslagsiektes.2. Skeer die ramme en doen alle nodige inentings (soos pas

teurella en bloednier), doserings (veral teen interne parasiete, bosluise en neuswurm) en aanvullings van Vitamien A & E en minerale.

Sorg dat die ramme in ‘n goeie kondisie is voor paring. Prikkelvoeding soos hawerpitte of ‘n goeie lek gee goeie resultate. Wees versigtig vir skoon mielies of sjokolade mielies, aangesien dit tot die aansameling van vet om die testis kan lei, wat die ramme se vrugbaarheid aantas. ‘n Lek hoog in proteien werk goed. Sorg vir genoeg vreetspasie sodat die ramme almal gelyktydig kan vreet. Ramme moet pers tussen die voor en agterbene wees wanneer hulle na die ooie gaan.

Doseer elke ram een keer per week met 20ml koringkiem die laaste 4 weke voor paring. Vir Mpumalanga word 10ml per week 6 weke vooraf voorgestel. Sodra die ramme by die ooie uitkom, begin om hulle in te ent met lewendige enstowwe soos bloutong, slenkdal, ensomeer.

Handel hierdie aksies minstens agt weke voor die volgende paring af.

Belangrik: kontak u plaaslike veearts as u oor enige van die dieregesondheid aanbevelings twyfel! Moenie dragtige ooie met lewendige entstowwe soos bloutong en slenkdal ent nie. Dit kan aborsies veroorsaak.

Lees alle entstowwe, doseermiddels en voere se pamflette om u te vergewis van die veilige gebruik daarvan. http://www.nwga.co.za/downloads/generiesebestuurskalender.html of http://www.nwga.co.za/downloads/skaapbestuursproram_en_kalender.xls.

PROVINCIAL Sewer spillages in most parts of the country are a serious health and environmental hazard.

The sewer spillages pose a serious threat to the environment, especially water resources in terms of quality through pollution.

As South Africans, we all need to take an interest and play our part in protecting our environment, especially our water sources. We need to stop the blame game and all play our part in minimising the sewer spillages that end up contaminating our water sources in our areas.

We are quick to blame municipalities when there are spillages and forget to look at our

role as we also do contribute to the problem.Let us be responsible citizens and assist our

municipalities and government in providing the services through the limited resources we have.

As we all know that communities have grown but most sewer plants remain the same, we are called upon to play our part in the upkeep and maintenance of systems.

Communities need to ensure that we do not dump foreign objects into sewer systems as this leads to blockages which cause most of the spillages we experience. Municipalities also need to play their part in ensuring that sewer plants and systems are well maintained

and attend to sewer blockages and spillages as soon as possible to prevent health risks to community members and environmental degradation.

We all need to come and work together and protect our sewer infrastructure from vandalism to ensure that we minimise sewer spillages.

South Africa is a water scarce country, therefore we need to join forces and prevent sewer spillages that negatively affect the quality of our limited water resources. (Themba Khoza, Communication Services, Mpumalanga Provincial Operations, Department of Water and Sanitation) JD

Together we can minimise sewer spillages in our towns
