Cattle Ticks,

A report issued from the depart.
ment Of agriculture states that the an.
nual loss occasioned through the cat
tie ticks is in the neighborhood OF
100000 10000. which is equal to about
ten per cent Of the value of the cat,

lowest and the loss is greatest in the
regions where the natural con litions
without the tick should produce the
