stock extra hazardous and expen.;u.
In recent years there ha been d.
veloped a method Of Prev ntive IN
oculation, with blood from an animal
previously infested with tickA Sus.
ceptible animals are thus given civ o
mild attack of the disease from which
they usually recover and which on
ables them to withstand the infection
introduced by the ticks.
During the past year I have in
oculated some forty head of cattle
for the farmers of the State. Of
twenty-five head inoculated durino
the early part of 1902, and subjected
to the test of a gross tick infesta-
ton during the summer, only one
died from any cause; whereas, with
out incubation not less than fftv
per cent would almost certainly have
died.
This work is done free Of charge
for any farmer in the State who may
request it in order to encourage the
introduction Of pure bred stock.
From the facts above discussed,
namely, that the cattle tick reduces
the price of all cattle sold in over
eighty counties of the State, more
than one-half cent per pound live
weight, causes the death Of more
cattle than all other diseases COM
bined, and is the great obstacle to
the improvement of our common
stock, through the introduction of
pure bred bulls, by rendering the
same extra hazardous and expensive,
it will be seen that it's determination
is the most important problem affect
ing the cattle industry of the State,

ton the resources of the Depart
ment can command.-Dr. TAFT But

THE CATTLE TICK AND THE
CATTLE QUARANTINE.

Observation-Disclosures Statement
by DR.. Butler.
After it became established that
the disease variously known in this
and other Southern States as splenic,
Spanish Texas, or tick fever, distem-
per, dry or bloody murrain, red wa
ter, acclimation fever, town-cow dis
ease, etc., was naturally conveyed
solely by the common Southern cattle
tick (Boophilus Annulatus), the
United States Secretary of Agricul-
ture designated a line, extending
across the country from the Atlantic
Ocean to the Pacific, which was in
tended to divide the section infested
with the cattle tick from that in
which no ticks existed. No cattle
from south of this line, that is,
from the tick infested area, r al
lowed to be driven or in any way
transported n%orthward across this
line, except under certain strict reg
ulations, and then only for immedi-
ate slaughter. All of North Caro-
lima was not permanently infested
with this tick, but that part east of
the mountains was, and, consequent
ly, all of the State was subjected to
these quarantine restrictions. But
the Secretary of Agriculture has au-
thority to exempt from the opera
ton of this quarantine any district
that is free of the cattle tick, where
the State authorities will enforce
such regulations as will effectually
prevent ticks being carried into such
district, giving assurance thereby
that cattle for shipment originating
within said district are unable to
carry infection with them to other
markets. In order to secure the adj
vantages thus accruing the Depart
ment has co-operated- with the United
States Department of Agriculture
and secured exemption from the
quarantine restrictions for the six
teen trans-mountain counties of this
State, thus securing a valuable saw
ing to the cattle growers of that Sec
ton.
To those familiar with the condi-
tions under which Southern or quar-
antined cattle sell in the principal
markets of the country, it is well
known that because they can not go
to Northern pastures or into North
ern feed lots, but must be sold for
immediate slaughter or go back
home, they sell from one-half to one
cent per pound, live weight, below
that brought by cattle of the same
quality, but not under the quarantine
restrictions. To this must also be
added the cost of providing separate
pens and unloading chutes and dis
injecting the cars, which the Govern
ment requires the railroad companies
to do. 1t is, therefore, evident that
the gain to the sixteen counties of
this State exempted from these quar-
antine restrictions is not less than
from. one-ffth to ~one-seventh the
selling price. In 1899 these counties

tiveness never before reaI1zed'
That this work also pays may be
shown by one illustration. The value
Of the live cattle sold from the farms
of Wilkes County in 1899 was about
$4,000 ESTIMATED from United
States Census Report). AS previous
" shown, these cattle would have
brought an advance of at least one
half cent pound live weight had they
been exempted from the quarantine
restrictions; for it must be remem-
bered that the price of all cattle IN
the United States, regardless of
where they may be sold, is fixed by
the Chicago and other large markets
of the country. Therefore, the loss
on these Wilkes County cattle for
one year was not less than one-sixth,
or $1,000. One-half this amount di-
vided into four equal parts and ex-
pended during as many years will
suffice to exterminate the ticks IN
Wilkes County. Likewise this easily
exterminable pest may be eradicated
from any county for a cost not K
ceeding the losses which it's presence
causes during any one year. This
applies only to those counties in
which the stock law Ono fence law
is enforced, for in a free range coun-
try the determination of the cattle
is practically impossible.
LOSSES FROM TICK FEVER.
Another, and not the least i'm
portant, phase of the tick question,
as affecting the cattle industry of
the State, is the extremely heavy
losses from Texas or tick fever.
More cattle die from this disease
than from all others combined. In
the majority of cases the true ma
ture and cause of the disease is little
suspected, even by the owners, the
animals dying before the ticks have
grown large enough to be visible to
the ordinary observer. These heavy
losses are due to the fact that, even
in what is known as the infected
area, many farms are free of ticks
and, therefore, the cattle raised on
these farms are as susceptible to the
disease as those raised in New York
or Minnesota; for, in order to safely
acquire immunity the calves must get
ticks on them before they are six
months old, which nearly always oc-
ours on the tick-infested farms.
Hence, the freedom from losses when
there are abundance of ticks, or none
of them at all, and the heavy losses
w~here~there is any commingling of
cattle from tick free and tick infest-
ed farms. This renders cattle traffic
extremely dangerous in a large num-
Der of the counties of the State and
results in losses, the aggregate of
which are simply amazing to those
not familiar with the conditions.
THE TICK AN OBSTACLE TO THE I'M
PROvEMENT Oh THE QUALITY OF
THE CATTLE OF THE STATE.
The presence of this pest over the
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-06-30

of between $4,000 and 100000.
The total cost of maintaining the
line across this State does not
amount to more than $500 annually.
At the time these sixteen counties
were first exempted from the opera
ton of the Federal quarantine, con-
siderable infection existed in a mum
Der of them, but by careful farm to
farm inspections and a quarantine
on the tick-infested farms, the in
lection has been controlled and at
present is almost entirely eradicated,
thus insuring for the future, freedom
from quarantine restrictions.
DETERMINATION OF THE CATTLE
TICK.
Recognizing that the extermina-
ton of the tick was of vital import
ance to the cattle industry of the
State, the Board of Agriculture, in
cooperation with the Federal au-
thorities, set aside the counties of
Surry, Wilkes, Caldwell, Burke and
Mcdowell as a field in which to make
an attempt at such determination.
What was then a theoretical prob
ability has been proved a practical
certainty by the work of the past
three years. Caldwell County and
the northern half of Burke County
have been cleared of ticks and are
added to the exempted area for 1908.
Furthermore, the tick has been so
nearly exterminated in Wilkes Coun-
ty, also, that the Federal authorities
have made North Wilkesboro a ship
ping point for cattle from the ex-
empted area, thus bringing a boon
to the cattle-raising counties of Ashe
and Allegheny, which have hitherto
been compelled to drive their cattle
a greater distance into Virginia to
reach a railroad station from which
they could ship.
In short, the feasibility of EXTERN
mating the cattle tick has been
proved, and the work has progressed
sufficiently to enable us to confident
ly predict the addition of one or
more counties to the exempted area
each year.
In the prosecution of the work, in
sp~ectors are employed who make a
farm to farm canvass of the territory
with a view to locating all tick-in-
tested farms, which are Immediately
quarantined and the owners instruct
ed as to the Importance and objects
of the work and az to the easiest and
best means of discriminating the ticks
on their places.
Daily reports are made to this Of
fee by the inspectors, showing the
number of miles travelled, the num-
Der and location of farms visited,
number of cattle inspected and the
presence or absence of ticks. In this
way the exact location of all the in
fected farms and cattle in each coun-
ty is known and the work kept in
hand so that an intelligent direction
of it is possible.
