HOW THE ss5 100000 BUG WILL BE ExTERM1NATED

One result of the depredations of this
bug is that the middle west is always
short of cattle to feed, while the south
ern states. with an abundance of cat
tie. cannot develop them to their full
growth.
The bug does not kill the southern
cattle, but it stunts their growth. 1t
is fatal to cattle raised north of the
boundary. and if means are found to
effectually eXterminate it the middle
west cattlemen, and particularly the
stock yard owners in-this- city, Kansas
City and similar central points, will be
as big gamers as the southern CATTLE
men.
Southern cattle bring the ticks into
the stock yards, and the bugs imme-
diately attack the northern and middle
west cattle. The insect eats its way
into the blood of the victim, destroying

the red carpuscles. 1t is estimated that
in 1000 pound steer there are 80
pounds of red c0rpuscles, and so active
are the operations of the fever germs
disseminated by the tick, that ten
pounds of the 80 are frequently
DESTROYED within "a hours.
The small percentage of deaths
among southern cattle is due to the
fact that from the time the calf is
dropped incubation by ticks begins,
and it becomes fever proof. It passes
through a natural form of vaccination,
but the northern animal. not having
these preparatory advantages, sue
cumbs to the ravages Of the tick. While
it does not kill the southern cattle, it
retards their growth, and if it could
be effectually squelched it is estimated
that each animal, when placed on the

more than the ruling prices for some
years past. To ranch owners who
market 5000, 10000 or 1000 head a year
a gain of 50 per head amounts to a
considerable sum.
Innumerable means have been tried
for the extinction of the bug, and all
have proven failures, but now it is be-
lieved that the problem has been
solved by the adoption of a chemical
bath for the infected cattle. The eX-
pertinent is now being tried at Fort
Worth, Tex, and within a fortnight or
so it will be definitely settled whether
it is efficacious. If favorable results
are attained, similar baths will be con-
structed in all the large stock yards at
the different shipping points, and no
expense will be spared to crush the bug
for good and all.
