DR.. T. NJ. Owen, when seen Eestel-
dav, had the following to say con
corning the work of tick eradication,
The cattle tick, has become d SUP
iact Of national Importance, OWING
to the part it PLAYS in the cattle II
dustrv Of the Southern States. Sihce
its life history has been
understood there has been a war OF
determination waged from North oaf-
DINA on the east to California on the
west The loss occasioned by this
parasite throughout the United states
has amounted to millions OF dollars.
While North Carolina IS nearly one
half free OF infection her losses alone
reach into thousands OF dollars an
nually.
1T has; been clearly proven, be
vond doubt, mat the disease known
as Texas fever. also called Red-Water,
Splenic fever, Bloody Murrian, or Dis
temper, is transmitted from one ami
NAL to another through the medium
OF this tick.
1T Will be well to discuss under
what conditions cattle ticks get in
their deadly work; for we are repeat
eddy asked by owners Of ticky cattle
to explain why their cattle are not
apparently effected by the ticks. The
reason Tor this is, that cattle raised
in tick-infested places are immune
becaus OF gradual and constant tick
infestatiOn from birth, SO that in their
native counties they are perfectly
harmless. The danger, however, lies
in conveying the ticks into non-in-
fected territory or wherever else they
may come in contact with susceptible
cattle. 1t is for this reason that the
Federal COY has established a
cattle quarantine line, extending from
North Carolina to California, dividing
the infested from the n~on-inftsted
territory.
There are many regulations and
restrictions pertaining to the move
ment Of cattle north of this line,
which greatly handicap the cattle
raiser in the u~uarantined territory.
With the exception of a certain pc
riod during the winter months. ship
mentS can be made only for in me-
diale slaughter, the cattle being
placed in pens specially provided for
such consiSnments. Owing to the fact
that they are q~uarantined cattle and
can be slaughtered only at certain
places. they depreciate in yaIue. to the
dHent of One-half 10 one cent s.
pound.
The disadvantages Of being below
the quarantine line are great. as own
ers OF cattle in the q~uarantined ter
rltory are cut off from the principal
markets of the country. Again. from
a real estate point of view, tick Grad
lcatlon IS one that concerns every land
owner below the quarantine line. Al
though many do not realize the i'm
portance oi this work that is being
carried Ga by the State and Federal
goVernm- ats.
Wnen cattle raisers, many from
the West. or Northwest. come to the
south 1or the purDOSe of buying land
and settling here they are advised not
To Go so. Real estate dealers north
OF the line warn them against the
quarantlned counties. and their mon
ely Is invested before they reach the
qhafahtlled section Of the South.
nus, hundreds of sales have bean
lost. though unknown 10 the ownar

The ancient "dew ponds" of Eng
land have their modern counterparts
on the Rock of Gibraltar, where
drinking water is obtained by the
condensation of the abundant dew
in specially prepared basins. The
primitive process consists in making
hollow in the ground, and filling
the bottom with dry straw, over
which is placed layer of clay. On
a clear night the clay cools very rap
idly, and the dew is condensed into
water in the basin. The pond is inn
proved by putting layer of asphalt
or Portland cement under the straw.
At Gibraltar the present practice is
to Use wood instead of straw and
shest iron instead of clay.

WHAT IMPRESSED THE LADIES
Sightseers in Supreme Court Chiefly
Interested In Hirsute Appendase
Of Judge.

Two elderly ladies, one of them
an instructor in well-known girls
college, were "doing Washington. "
They began with the senate, and,
after listening to stirring speech
by Senator Rayner, in which he
urged that Zelaya should be arrested
and tried as murderer, they sailed
forth to see what the supreme court
was like. Recounting. their impress
sions afterward, they told of their
arrival in the midst of an argument,
in which young man was defend
ing his clients right to a certain
patent.
But" explained one of the
ladies, "the young man talked so
low, we could not hear what he said.
The strange thing about it," she con-
tinued, "was that all the Judges
looked as though they were asleep. |
don't suppose they were, but they
looked that way. And, oh, do you
think" she questioned, as a sudden
thought flashed into her mind, edo
you suppose that Justice Brewer
wears a wig. or is that long white
hair really his own?"
