E. T. Goodwin, well-to-do
cattleman living near Morgan, in
Bosquo county, recently purchas-
ed ten-section pasture in Foard
county, ia which place he expects
to move his cattle, numbering
some 400 or 500 head, from Bos-
que county in short time. Mr.,
Goodwin undertook several
months ago to remove the ticks
from his cattle, with they were
practically covered, by a free use of
a solution of nine parts of cotton
seed oil to one part of kerosene
oil, applying with paint brush.
He succeeded, he says in absolute
ly killing all the ticks, so much
as there cannot as much as one
tick be TO und on any of his cattle.
He expects to have these cattle
inspected preparatory to shipping
them to Foard county, which is
abuve the quarantine line, and as
the cattle are free from ticks he
GOES not expect to be required to
dip them.

To Petition Legislature.

The ravages of prairie dogs are
unparalleled in the history of
Texas. Their natural enemies,
coyotes, foxes, and wolves, have
been about killed off and these
pestiverous little animals are null
tiplying by the millions. Poison
appears to be cohgenial diet for
them, for thus far it has had little
or no effect in diminishing their
"towns'' or putting any sort OF
stop in their depredations.
The Midland Live Stsck Re-
porter, says in its last issue: A
monster patition will go from
Taylor county to the governor and
the legislature calling attention
to the ravages of the prairie dog
and praying for legislation look
ing to its determination.
"No law that is not compulsory
will meet the situation, as foreign
land owners will refuse voluntary
action and the Law must compel
every county in tile infected dis
tricts to act. 4
"Not less than half the grass in
tx Leg 'i lasliged
to feed this ravshSus animal, and
he not only consums the grass but
destroys the roots when the grass
is exhausted.
"The different counties north of
Abilene are thoroughly in accord
with this movement and all are
willing to bear the burden of
tax, either per capita or by the
acre, that will in the end rid that
country of this most destructive
animal.
"People there say that had they
not been so extremely anxious to
rid north Texas of other animals
that lived on prairie dogs and
which did far less harm to the
grazer and agriculturist, the pest
would not now be one-half as bad
as 1t is.
GAS matter of fact it takes
now two acres of land to do the
work one did not long ago for the
support of cattle, before the dogs
became as numerous as they are
at present. AS a cattleman said:
"Give us coyotes, foxes, wild
cats, mountain lions, or any sort
of wild beast you may name that
will live in Texas, but do some
thing to aid the people in the west
to free their lands of the prairie
dog"
