County Papers Could Help in Tick
Eradication Work.

Messrs. Editors: We have taken
up tick eradication in this (Sumter)
County, and the work can be greatly
promoted by the papers, IL they
would educate the people as to its
possibilities by giving a short life
history OF the cattle tick, in contra
distinction to that of the dog tick
and other harmless ticks to cattle,
as regards carrying the infection of
tick fever. Also. as to the great
Importance and advantages of this
work to the cattle industry Of the
South.
The people would read what
the papers state about the matter.
They will rarely read a bulletin.
They need education along this line
of work, very much indeed. Many
think the work absurd, as they think
the ticks breed and propagate in the
weeds. grass and woods independent
OF attaching themselves to animals.
Please hammer that out of their
heads. In this county, they are howl
ing about the prospect of keeping
cattle enclosed on the farms in win
ter, which is necessary to proceed
with the work effectively. If they

mad all the farms fenced, they would
not want to turn out cattle in the
winter. They must be made to see
the great advantage of fences on
the farm so as to be ready to rotate
crops when the boil weevil reaches
us. Once the farms are fenced, tick
eradication is made easy.
II we can get rid of tick infection
In the lime lands of Mississippi and
Alabama, these lands especially will
be much sought after by farmers
who would like to come here from
tne states to the North of us, and
the value of land will greatly en-

extends through herd and appears
to be spread by the mixers.
While disagreeable, no serious
trouble occurs except when the end
of the teats become affected or the
infection gets into the teats and
causes an Inflammation of the udder.
Before milking wash the udder
thoroughly in solution of some coal
tar disinfectant-say l part OF creo-
lin or zenoleum to 40 parts OF water.
After milking apply carbolated vase
line to the affected parts.
Milk the we'll cows first and wash
the hands after milking each cow.
If cleanliness is observed and the
udder is otherwise all right, these
small boils need not injure the quail
ty of the milk, but the safest plan
would be to defer using the milk
until the sores disappear.

NO poor man was ever helped by en-
couraging him to keep poor live
stock and not feed them. The poor
man will always be benefited by any,
thing which will induce him to feed
his live stock better and give II good
care. He can make sufficient feed
to keep his live stock and by so
doing will obtain more out of that
live stock than when it is allowed
to run at large and depredate on his
neighbors. for he may be sure that
II his neighbor is compelled to fur
nish feed for these live stock against
his will. they will not be we'll fed.
The whole idea of allowing live
stock to run at large and look out
for itself is wrong, and the exist
ence Of such an error is more large
ly resposible for the poor quality of
the live stock of the South than all
other causes combined.
Recently another reason why live
stock should not be allowed to run
at large at any season Of the year
has been brought to light by the
conditions necessary to the eradica-
ton of the cattle tick. To control
any disease or parasite, you must
control the bearer OF that disease or
parasite. AS well expect to eradi-
cate smallpox and allow smallpox
patients to run at large as to eradi-
rQfa Tho noff1A ftoE oil
to run at large. The same fact ap-
plies to the spread and control of
hog cholera and all other infectious
diseases OF live stock. A few selfish
people who wish to get something
which does not belong to them;
those who are too shiftless to pro-
vide feed for their live stock; and
a few who labor under the erron-
eous impression that it pays better
to let live stock hustle for itself than
to feed and care for It. may for a
time succeed In preventing the uni
versal adoption of the stock law"
for twelve months in the year; but
as sure as fate, the time and condi-
tions are fast coming when each
man must feed and care for his own
live stock and prevent them depre-
dating on his neighbors and carry
ing disease broadcast in the land,
All will be benefited by the rigid
enforcement OF such a law. and un-
selfish, right-thinking men will aid
in bringing about such a condition.
The progressive farmer and southern farm gazette. (Starkville, Miss.) 1910-1920, 1910-06-18

law" has never ceased to be
source of wonder and deep interest
to the writer. The manifest Justice
and right OF requiring each man to
care for and feed or pasture his own
live stock on his own feed seems so
simple that no one can fail to recog-
nize 1t. Moreover. the results Of
this method of handling live stock
are universal. The live stock
improves In quality and in the
course of few years increases in
numbers. and the profits are always
greater. We believe in fencing all
cultivated lands as we'll as pastures;
for we know that good farming and
the raising of live stock require this;
but III the cost of fences alone is
considered, IL Is certainly much less
expensive for the average man to
fence the pastures than TO fence the
crops. Year by year the area COM
ing under this law. which prevents
the live stock OF one man depredat-
ing on the lands of another, Is being
increased. until now there are few
sections at all thickly settled, or
making a pretense to good farming
that have not adopted IL.
But In many sections where the
utility and eternal right of the
stock law" have been recognized
by It's adoption for a portion of the
year, these established facts are re-
versed and repudiated for a few
months during the winter. How any
intelligent man who hopes to do
good farming can see the good of
the stock law" for nine months OF
the year and be blind to its virtues
for the other three months is indeed
difficult to understand. II It be right
To protect me in the ownership OF
them for nine months In the year.
why not for the twelve? IL II be
just that be required TO take care
of and feed my own live stock for
nine months OF the year and prevent
them depredating on my neighbors'
lands and crops. why is 1t not just
that l be required to do this for the
remaining three monthsg
There is no time OF the year when
have more need for all the feed
on my farm than during the winter
months. Why should my neighbours
live stock be permitted to deprive
my live stock of that which is mine?
There is no season of the year
when my live stock viii do more in
jury to my neighbours lands by
tramping: why should | permit my
live stock TO thus injure my neigh
boris lands In order that l may
profit by the feed which belongs to
my neighbor and for which | pay
him nothing? Good farming means
tho growing OF crops the entire
year: but how am to grow winter
crops II my neighbours live stock are
by law permitted to consume them
and tramp them into the earth :?
The reasons and the principles in
volved In the enforcement OF stock
law" are just the same for twelve
months as for nine or ten, and the
arguments used against the enforce
ment OF II for the entire year are
the same old frauds which have al
ways been urged against its adop-
ton for any part OF the year.

claim that 1t is hardship on the

How Mr.. Wade Makes Money With
Pigs.
Messrs. Editors: l have lust fin

am trying to beat my last years hay
crop and hog crop. have 20 pigs now
and expect three filters more during
the season, all pure-bred Duroc-Jer-
seys. have fenced off some 25
acres OF my orchard, with fine spring
branch in it. and have pigs shut out
until crop grows. Have planted <
acres rape. 5 acres peanuts, S acres
sorghum, 10 acres cowpeas and SOW
beans. In latter part of June I'll
commence to throw them defective
peaches. feed them all thew will
eat while they last, or until about
first OF August, then will turn the
whole hog business into the lot. let
ting them have a selection till about
November 1st, when l put up the
nogs to butcher. l feed them corn
few weeks before killing them.
but l figure that the 25-acre patch
Will care for so or 60 hogs all win

Adjoining that have 10 acres Of
crimson clover and Hairy vetch that
l can run low fence around and
turn the pigs in there for a time
when necessary.
l figure that I can raise 100 tn
200 pigs each season by this method
Besides, the roots of the legumes will

my peach and apple trees. l could
raise 100 or more pigs each season:
the only trouble I see is, my neigh
Dors begin to see the value of pure
bred pigs and take them away from
me at 6 or weeks old at $40 each.
This, OF course. is a good enough
paying proposition, but keeps nv
hog herd down to fewer numbers
than I could have wished.
Just now it looks like a bountiful
peach crop will give me any amount
OF peaches. The mash. after the
cider Is extracted from the waste
peaches. with the waste pits and
parings from canning, can feed quite
a herd for 60 days, or during the
peach harvest. 1 have planted sew
eral patches of alfalfa, bluegrass,
and Bermuda for summer time, to
help the proposition out. Hope to
get herd OF Holstein cows this fall
as l know the value of milk for
young pigs. I used to raise a num-

Will Stop Land Grabs.

1.-The worst plumber of lands and
d-grabbing ever known has been
disclosed by the Investigations of the
congressional committee in Oklaho-
ma" said Congressman Philip p.
Campbell, who arrived hime in Pitts
burg, Kans., after a months absence
with the committee in Oklahoma.
THE investigation has called atten-
ton to the manner in which this land
grating and grabbing has been going
on, and for one thing there will be
no more Indian land grating or
grabbing. This plundering of Indian
property will be stopped. No more
will the Indian be permitted to sign
away his rights. The government viii
see to that. No more big fees for at
torneys and no more lobbying in
Washington Indian affairs will be
conducted properly hereafter.
THE government will sell the land
for the Indians The government will
employ the necessary attorneys for
the Indians and they will be paid at
a rate fixed or approved by the gov
eminent. The lands will be placed on
the market in September. They will
be sold and the Indians will get their
share from the sale.
