The Experiment al Major Walkers Farm
"A success.


May 18th last the Federal Department
OF Agriculture sent eighteen head Of
cattle TO the Major Walker farm for
experimental purposes. and thirteen Of
these were Vaccinated against tick
fever, or bloody murrain. and five were
not. Toward the last Of June two
OF the hyo died OF the disease. on We'd
aesday Of tnat week another died, the
other two were sick. one OF them being
scarcely expected 10 recover.
OF those vaccinated although three or
four have been sick. none have died. and
all are yet in good condition. They range
from between one TO nine years OF age.
SO far the experiment has been decided
ly s4iccossful.
The cause Of death in these cattle was,
according TO Or. Curtice, In charge, un-
dOubtcdly Tho ticks which attached them
selves TO the cattle. The disease did
not appear until three weeks after the
FIRST ticks were found upon them, and
this was from two 10 three weeks after
their arrival in Manchester Although
as many or moro ticks have been upon
the other cattle. they DO not die, because
they have been previously made unsus-
ccptible TO their influence
None Of the thirty head Of cattle own
precisely the same conditions have been
il in the slightest degree. These cattle
having been either bred and raised on
the farm or purchased from owners who
raised them on the commons about Man
chester went through "a mild attack Of
the disease when calves. and have ever
since been unsusccptble 90 ~.
Dr. Curtice reports that ticks do not
seem 10 be so abundant this year as
last. and believes Il - be due 20 these
causes. The stoppage Of traffic IN cattle
between Powhatan. Amelia, Lunenburc.
and Dmwiddie. and othes counties on
the one hand. and Richmond on the
other have prevented these cattle spread
ing the ticks on the commons Then.

peared.
