Cattle Must Be Dipped.

The federal and state authorities
having placed the counties of Teton,
C%houteau, Valley, and Dawson under
quarantine regulations, all cattle In
this district must be dipped before
they are shipped out of the locality
affected. This will necessitate an
extra roundup for dipping purposes,
work that involves an enormous ex.
peuse, but the stockmen find they are
''up against" an unfortunate and diff.
6cult proposition and are preparing
to meet it in the best way possible.
Dipping operations will be under
the supervision Of state or federal
authorities. Some OF the stockmen
will use their own dipping plants,
while others will avail themselves of
the facilities offered by the Seabury
Spraying Machine company. The
latter has already entered into con.
tracts for dipping cattle owned by
several outfits in Valley county, the
list including the Marias Roundup
association, the Miner Livestock
company, Bear Paw pool, Empire

method. 1t is q big undertaking on

thai 1t was not the intention of the
board to force any machine or system
upon the stock owners: if they owned

that n all other systems the cattle had
to be dipped twice, necessitating the
holding of the cattle and a great
amount OF trouble in handling them.
In response to a question from Car.

Knowles said that the sanitary board
would collect the cattle and dip them
