VALUABLE EXPERIMENTS.


Dipping Is Now said to Prevent
Spread of Texas Fever.
Elaborate experiments on Texas fever
have been conducted during the past
year by the Missouri state authorities,
cooperating with the Texas Experiment.
station. 1t is clearly demonstrated that
the Texas tick is the natural means of
communicating the disease from one
animal to another. Ticks Matched in
the laboratory when put on Missouri
short-horn cows in lots free from any
possible infection, produced fatal cases
of Texas fever in every instance within
from 13 to IS days after the young ticks
were placed on the animal.
The Texas station dipped carload
of Texan cattle, all of which were COW
cred with the Texas fever tick, and
shipped the dipped cattle to the Mis-
souri, Experiment station. These cattle
were dipped in n West Virginia mineral
oil at a cost of less than five cents per
head The Missouri station confined
these dipped Texan cattle in small lot
with number of short-horn COWS from
the 18th of August until the 1st of No.
Nculpci, anu bIdut III dully opSSl'
rations and temperature records, with
the result that no Texas fever was com.
municated. If subsequent experiments
confirm these results, the dipping proc,
ess will be regarded MS entirely practi
cable and feasible. 1t can be easily and
cbeaply done on commercial scale
and would enable the farmers of the
Mississippi valley to purchase and bring
to their farms with perfect safety a
any season of the year cheap range
cattle to eat their surplus corn ant
| grass.
An attempt was made to inoculat,
cattle so that they would be proc
against this disease, with very promis
| ing results. These results are IN Il meas
ure confirmed by experiments that DIR
Connaway has just concluded in Mis-
sissippi, on a carload of dairy cattl,
shipped there from Kansas. Twelve o
these cattle had died of Texas feve
before the animals were injected; non,
died afterward. The method is neithe
expensive nor difficult, and if it prove
to be successful the entire Texas feve
district comprising dozen states) viii
be opened as market for the thorough
bred stock of the north and west, in
asmuch as these animals may then b.
shipped to these states with safety

be hard boiled or the contents blown
from the shells. Color 16 red, gild eight
and leave one white. Now for the ar
rangement. Make two circles, one Of
the 16 red eggs and within this circle
of the eight gilded eggs. The eggs
must be placed at equal distances apart,
the outer circle measuring about eight
feet in diameter and the inner one four
feet, and the white egg must be placed
in the center of the inner circle. The
eggs having been arranged the com
pany is divided into couples and each in
turn try the dance.
The first couple take position within
outer circle-that is, between the red
eggs and the gilded ones, and waltz
around the circle three times, keeping
within the space between the two
circles. Entering the inner circle they
waltz three times around the central
egg, and all this must be done without
breaking or greatly disturbing any of
the eggs.
When an egg is broken or knocked
more than 12 inches from its position
the dancers give place to the next
couple. The broken ones are not re-
placed, but the displaced ones are Sc,
in order. When each couple has had g
| turn and none has accomplished the
