of late years the chief drawback 10 the
Improvement of cattle and the cattle trade

the loss of entire herds. Legislation has

one clause in the present law for the
protection of domestic animals should not
be overlooked This law permits owners
10 raise ticks on their cattle should they
so desire, but intends to prevent their
distributing them where other cattle may
become infested by them.
