host
During its life in the pasture the
seed tick takes no food and hence
does not increase in size, and unless
it reaches a host it dies of starvation.
This fact is significant and Is taken
advantage of in the work of exami-
mating the ticks. Their endurance
however is very great and under GER
tain conditions they have been found
to live without nourishment nearly
eight months during the colder part
of the year.
The length of the period from the
time females drop Rntil all the seed
ticks Matching from the eggs laid by
them are dead, or in other words, the
time required for pastures to become
free of ticks after ali cattle, horses
and mules have been reXcnded vaies
rwith the season OF the year, being
shortest during the warm part of the
year and longest during the cold part
Of the year. For example, all the
seed tick resulting from females drop
ped June 10 will be dead by Novem-
Der /, a period of four and one-half
months but some of those resulting
from females dropped September l ma
survive until the following July, a
period of ten months
Another phase of development be-
gins when the tick reaches favora-
BILE host, such as cow. 1t usually at
taches itself to the skin of the es-
cutcheon, the inside of the thighs
and TANKS or TO the idewlap. 1t al
once begins to draw blood and in
crease in size. In "a few days ii
changes from brown to white. In
from five to twelve days it sheds
its skin the new form having eight
instead of six legs and being known
as a nunch. In another five to elev-
,en days after the first malt the nymp
sheds it's skin it becomes seXually
mature and it is at this stage that
males and females are conspicuous
for the first time. The male emer-
ees as brown oval tick about one
tenth of an inch in length Having
reached the full measure Of his grow !
he Displays greater activity in moving
about ON the host. The female is
slightly larger, but shows much less
activity seldom moving far from h,
point of attachment previous TO molt-
ing. After mating she increases rap
| idly in size and in twenty-one days
Tin cold weather) after attaching as
seed tick she becomes fully engorged
and drops to the ground to repaet the
cycle of development.

nation about ticks and giving dilec-
lions for getting rid of them may

HISTORY OF The
CATTLE TICK
Pest Practically Unknown
In This Country.
How it is PROTECTED and the Var
ious Phases Of its
Development.

An intimate knowledge of the life
history of the cattle tick is necessary
to those who have the pest to con-
tend within order that they may wage
: their battle more intelligently and
at the same time secure better and
.greater results. A knowledge of the
manner in which the tick propagates
can not fail to be of value in the
war of determination now being car
ried on against it in the South.
Only a part of the development of
the tick takes place of the host (animal
while the remainder occurs in the pas
ture. The female tick, which is at
tached to the skin of the host, in
creases enormously in size as re-
suit of drawing liberal quantities of
blood and when fully engorged drops
gins to search for suitable hiding
place that will serve as a protection
from the sun and enemies. The fema
ticks may be devoured by birds. des-
troyed by annts or may perish as the
result of nnfavorable conditions. such
as for example low temperature lack
of moisture etc, so that many may
be destroyed without having laid any
egss.
Egg laying begins during the spring
summer and fall months in two or
twenty days and during the winter
months in thirteen to ninety-eight
days. The eggs are small elliptical-
shape bodies of light amber color
that later changes to dark brown
one-fiftieth of an inch in length coat
ed with a sticky secretion that causes
them to adhere in clusters and keeps
A them from drying out. During egg
= laying the tick gradually shrinks to
about one-third or one-fourth her for
.mer size. The egg laying period con-
tinues for from four days In the sum-
,mer to ISL days beginning in the fall
and during this period from several
hundred to 5000 eggs may be deposit
ed. The mother tick then dies with
in a few days.

ALL RECORDS BROKEN
BY HARVEST FOR 1909
Three Bumqer Crop Gather at
Once, Government Repot
Reveals.

More grain than ever before grew
to maturity in a single year in the
United States already has been harves
ted or is rapidly approaching maturity
according 10 the government official
crop report for August just issued.
Never but once has there been more
wheat: never before has there been
so mich corn or so much oats. And
never before have three bumper crops
come together in the same year.
Never in history has such huge
task confronted the railroads as the
moving Of this stupendous harvest to
market and never have the railroads
been so prepared for their work
Along the lines Of the principal roads
in the great grain producing states
stand miles and miles of emp
iy box cars, ready for the load
ing, while thousands of engines new
or overhauled during the period of
depression just drawing TO a close,
stand with steam up, ready to rush
them TO Chicago, Minneapolis and
other terminal cities, where the
almost empty elevators yawn for the
golden grain, and boats and cars are
ready TO carry the surplus to other and
less-favored nations which must look
to bountiful American for a large por-
ton of their food supply.
FIGURES GIVEN ON CROPS
The year record crops of grain as
shown in the government report are

To add joy to the farmers, prices
are high and bid fair to remain so.
Usually the farmer gets high prices
only in years of scarcity, while in
many instances prices in bounteous
years have been so very low as to
make il improbable to market the
crops. On non a few occasions in
the last twenty sears have wheat and
corn been used for fuel. Last year
was lean year but inspite of this wheat
price are now above last years level
while corn and oats values are high
enough TO make their marketing pro-
fitable Prices Of grain for September

year are as follows.

ERA OF PROSPERITY SURE.
These figures show that the farmer
will have an enormous amount of
money to spend this winter. His
prosperity will be reflected IN manu-
featuring lines because the panios,
automobiles and other Injuries The
railroads will receive double pro-
fit, because they will not only have
to move the crops To market, but the
said pianos and automobiles from the
cities TO the farmers, Consequently
the great crop outlook makes it APP
pear that the country is in for an
era of prosperity such as ii never
saw before.

on winter wheat, were surprise even
to the most optimistic. Trashing re-

belISvilIc.

Mr.. Rufus Matthews, who edited and
published the Taylor County Enquirer
for number of years, selling that
paper and later starting The Sentinel,
died suddenly last Friday about noon.
He was victim of pulmonary trouble,
and while his friends had no hope of his
recovery, his death was shock to the
people of Campbellsville where he was
born and reared. He was on the street
conversing with friends few minutes
before expiring. He was about 81
years old, good newspaper man, and
eighteen months ago he contributed a
number of interesting letters to The
Adair County News. We were real
sorry to learn of his demise and tender
our sympathy to the bereaved wife and
brother, who survive him.

Wednesday Evenings Entertain
mentS.

"My Lord in Livery and clicks at
the College" drew large audience to
the courthouse last Wednesday even
ing. The two plays were gotten up by
pupils of the Columbia Graded School,
and they were the best entertainments
given in this place for many weeks.
''My Lord in Livery" was played first.
There were seven characters. Lord
Thirlmere was represented in the per-
son of Chester Scalf; Spiggott, an old
family Butler, Paul Hughes; Hopkins, a
footman, Will Diddle; Robert, a page,
Stith Noe; Sybil Amberly, daughter of
Sir George, Leonors4 Lowe; Laura and
Rose, her friends, Ella Walker, Mary
Myers. We will not undertake to go
into details. Suffice it to say that each
one played his or her part most admir-
ably, the performances being highly
complimented
This play was followed by clicks at
the College," twenty-three characters
being represented. In this there were
some fine acting for amateurs, the en-
tire audience keeping close watch
from the time the curtain was raised
until it dropped. There was not girl
nor boy but did remarkably well, re-
ceivipg praises from all present. The
following boys and girls played leading
parts and deserve special mention:
Paul Hughes, Geo. Hancock. Tom
Patteson, Leon Lewis, Bryan English;
Mary Lucy. Lowe, Ruth Paul, Ethel
Jackman, Mary B. Feese.
The teachers of the school, who drill
ed the young pupils. deserve the en-
dorsement of the community for the
faultness manner in which both plays
were rendered.
