EXTERMINATINGT TICKS BY VACA-
TING PASTURES.
A Pasture May Be Freed of Ticks BY
Keeping All Stock Off Of 1t
From September l to July

The month of August lends itself
we'll to the eradication of cattle fever
ticks where a pasture rotation plan is
used. By vacating a pasture during
this month and keeping it vacant until
July l of next year it may be freed of
ticks, and if no tick infested animals
are allowed to enter after July l the
pasture will remain free The United
Estates Department. of Agriculture ad-
vises farmers in the tick region to take
advantage Of this favorable time so far
as practicable.
Pastures from which live stock is re
moved for a sufficient time become free
Of ticks by a process of starvation, as
the ticks can not live to maturity if
they are unable to get upon animals.
The time required for all ticks to die
after the stock has been removed from
infested fields and pastures varies con
siderably, depending on climate, sea
SON. and weather conditions Expert
ence has shown, however, that the per
iod from September / to July l is suf
fcicnt, and this appears to be the most
convenient time.
The advantage of vacating a pasture
for the period named is twofold. Not
only is the pasture freed from ticks

pense than at any other season. and it
will be benefited by the rest and will
have a better growth of grass the fol
lowing summer. Tn some sections
where pastures are utilized throughout
the winter, to vacate would probably
necessitatc feeding the stock, unless
the farmer is situated so that he can
keep his stock on one pasture while an
other pasture is kept vacant. But it
is also true that beginning with Septcm
ber there will be a more abundant sup
ply of rough feed about farm which
can be utilized August is most
favorable month for making a start to-
ward freeing premises of ticks by the
method suggested.
The animals should of course be. free
of ticks when they are again turned
on the pasture in July. Where the
owner has a small number of cattle,
greasing or spraying them with Beau

pie prefer to ship their freight by rail

to blame but themselves, and when
this is done they will be entirely at the

too late then. Everyone who has
freight to ship should see that it is
shipped by this boat so that it can be

CONTRACTS LET
FOR The RAILROAD

The last issue of the Humbolt Star
published at Winnemucca, Nevada
contained an interesting article on
the railroad situation, activity and
plans for this summer. According to
the Star plans are nearly completed
Tor the beginning of actual construc-
ton work on a new railroad out of
Wnnemucca north to Caldwell. The
Star says:
Plans are now being formated for
the construction Of another railroad
out OF Wnnemucca. This new line
is to penetrate the great northern sec
ton of this country, with this place as
the junction point with the two trans
continental lines that now pass
through this place.
Some time ago R. E. Tilden, a we'll
known civil engineer, who has had a
great deal of experience in railroad
building, has been working on this
new railroad enterprise, and it now
looks as If the construction of the new
road will be commenced in tho early
spring. At Dir. Tilden's Office in the
HustOn-Grandin building a represen-
tative of this paper was shown maps
and drawings of the proposed route
and Mr.. Tilden has had such Rratify-
ing offers from the people with capital
with whom he has been associated
before in tho construction of rail-
roads, that it now looks as if a num-
Der OF miles of the railroad will be
constructed, this coming summer.
In speaking of the project, Mr.. Til
den stated that plans have progressed
so far that there is hardly a doubt
that construction will start at the
opening OF spring.

nOrthward from here will be another
great leader in the upbuilding of Win.

THE BOND BILL IS
n SURE To PASS

Sentiment in favor Of the bill to
issue irrigation bonds in the sum of
$50, 900, 100000 to complete the. gov
eminent reclamation projects, is grow.
ing stronger every day. The senti-
ment in the senate is quite favorable
Senator'S Flint, Kean and Burton being
the only ones to voce opposition.
Friends of the measure are conf
dent that there will be a vote at an
early day, and that they will have a
safe majority to pass the bill. The
arguments advanced by Senators
Jones, Carter and Borah appealed
strongly to the disinterested senator's,
several of whom privately expressed
their belief that the bill should pass.
This result is expected unless Flint
and Kean have pledged enough to
defeat the measure, which is doubt
full
The measure is championed by sew
eral senator's, especially by Senator's
Carter and Smith. Mr.. Carter said
that in several cases reservoirs had
been completed, although the bitches
had not been constructed. The effect
was to withhold the water from the
settlers. | was stated that the money
would be all repaid by settlers, and
that, in reality, the Treasury would
not in any way be affected.
The fear was voiced by Senator's
Flint and Crawford that the Depart-
ment might be tempted to enter upon
new schemes before the completion of
present enterprises and thus soon in
volve the Government in future obi.
cations. 1t was eontended on behalf
OF the measure that the danger had
been averted by the language of the
bill.
Senator Hepburn said that the
shortage of the reclamation fund was
due to the withdrawal of the public
lands from sale. Thus the fund has
been starved by the government and
congress needlessly and permitted the
process. He said it would not he

that there is only one little question
that / would mention. In handling
sheep you must not scare them. You
must not jump down off fence in
front of them, or do anything that will
excite them; you don't want to throw
your hat over you don't want to slam
the door, you don't want to make pc
culiar noises. You simply want to
go in there in a quiet way and give
your sheep an opportunity to know
you and know who you are, and they
will know you, love you and you will
succeed if you go that way.-A. R.
Thrasher, before the West Virginia
Live Stock Association.

KEEP SHEEP QUIET
To GET RESULTS

There are many people who have
had twenty to twenty-five sheep all
their lives and think they know the
sheep business. One will say, 81 have
had twenty-five sheep ever since
knew anything, and you can't tell me
anything about sheep" Let him in
crease his flock to 200, and he will find
that he doesn't know anything about
sheep. There are hundreds of people
who could handle 25 sheep who
couldn't handle 200 sheep at all, simp-
ly because the sheep have had the run
of the farm and have taken care of
themselves. They have not studied
the sheep or their requirements, and
they have not fed them; they have fed
themselves principally and they got
along making the man some dollars,
and he is really not a shepherd at all.
1t has been said here recently, one
man had kept sheep twenty years,
and he had learned more last year
about sheep that he had in the other
nineteen years, That is easy. But a
man who has had 25 sheep all his life
and never has any trouble will never
understand it until he has tronble.
One of the greatest drawbacks to
the sheep industry is that man will
have a few sheep and they will make
him large profits, and then he will be
like the boy who went into the hog
business. He got couple of shoats,
put them in a pen, his neighbors gave
him the refuse from their kitchens
and he raised two very fine hogs, sold
them for S45. "Why," he said. "This
is great; l will get so hogs and will
raise hogs and l will take a trip to
Europe" OF course he didn't take his
trip to Europe. Well, it is the same
way with the sheep business. A few
sheep will take care of themselves but
the sheep industry is a science There
are so many things that enter into it
and we should be careful how we tum-
bic into it, because we will fall out of
it just as quick. In the first place
man who habitually handles sheep and
goes among them will naturally learn
to be gentle and mild. If he is not
when he goes in, he will get so before
he gets out. A rough, quick man, with
flock of 200 hundred sheep will soon
have those sheep in a condition that
you can't do anything with them, they
will not be profitable, he will have all
kinds of trouble, and he will not know
what is the matter with them. The
simple handling of sheep will gentle
a man, or else he will have to go out
of the sheep business. He has got to
be gentle. A gentle man has a good
influence on the sheep and the sheep
have a good influence on the man. So
