larry fond of veal blood, but older stock
and horses, colts, mules and burros all
suffer. 1 did not catch q vampire Mt his
work, though l saw hundreds of them,
but tho cattlcmcn all tell the Same story.
The vampire settles somewhere on tho
back of tho beast in tho pasture at night,
and then, whilo slowly tanning its wings
to and fro, cuts circular piece of skin
onc-quarter of an inch in diameter.
Through this holo he sucks the blood till

Ono wound would DO of little consc-

much damage were that all, but half n
dozen vampires may feast on ono poor
calf or on tho back of saddle horse In
one night. The calf is badly weakened by
the loss of blood, while n saddle horse so
served is worthless until tho wounds arc
entirely healed. But that is not the worst
result of the bite. The region swarms with
pcstifcrous fly that soon after daylight
finds the wound and lays eggs In it. I'm

dressed with waxy snlvc within IS hours
