A TRAGEDY In Writina.

Illegible handwriting. which has Civ
en- rise to so many comedies. led to
a tragedy in the case of Bacher. a
musical enthusiast Of the last century
who devoted several years to the COM
position Of history of Viennese mu-
sic. His task finished. he submitted
the manuscript to the Austrian i'm
perial academy. which he had been led
to believe would defray the cost of its
publication. After three months his
manuscript was returned. Despite
their best efforts the members had
been unable to decipher it. Bacher
then endeavored to have his work
copied, but every professional copyist
who undertook the task had to confess
himself baffled. He thereupon at
tempted debating the work, only to
find that even he could not decipher
it, and, beartbroken at the discovery
that his years of toll had proved fruit
less, he attempted suicide and finished
his days in a lunatic asylum.

Menelik inquired what treatment she

large pot of very rancid butter, accom-

take three glasses daily Of the butter

Il receiving goodly number of
letters in which the writer's question
statements which he has made. These
letters are remarkable, in that none
of them have raised a single ques-
ton that has not often been raised
before, and as often answered. One
amusing feature is the positive as
critics tell us we know nothing about
the manner in which ticks breed or
reproduce themselves.
How Ticks Breed.
The most common, although erron-
eous, belief of our critics is that the
old female or mother tick drops to
the ground and after awhile bursts
open and young ticks emerge from
her ruptured body. Once for all,
and positively, we wish to state that
this common belief is false. No ticks
breed that way. How much easier
and more sensible it would be for
these honest but mistaken friends
to put mother tick in bottle, plug
1T up with wad of cotton, set the
bottle away in a dark place and
watch the results. They can verify
our statement with less trouble than
they can convince us that ticks burst
open and permit young live ticks to
crawl out Of them. We have seen
thousands Of them lay eggs and
have seen the youns ticks emerge
from the shells, and If any one will
send us a tick that breeds in any
other way we will make him a pres
ent OF life subscription to The Pro-
gressive Farmer and Gazette, or give
him anything else he may ask for.
Another common error is that the
common ticks on cattle are not the
FEVER ticks. No other species ever
become numerous on cattle. When
ever large numbers of ticks are
found on cattle after July Is or
August /, 1t may be taken for grant
ed that they are fever ticks.
One good friend says that the COM
mon old tick, with a white SPOT inst
back OF its head, does not breed the
way / described for the fever tick.
Now, our friend is guilty of just two
errors. This tick with the spot on
its back is not the most common tick
on cattle and it does not breed by
bursting open and allowing the
young ticks to crawl out of it's body,
but lays eggs just as does the fever
ticks, as any one may prove by put
ting one in a bottle or box and
watching it few weeks. This tick
with the white spot gets on all sorts
of animals, but 1t is not the com
mon cattle tick-it is not the one
that carries tick fever and does SO
much damage to the cattle industry.
You Can Not Kill Ticks by Feeding
the Cattle Sulphur, Etc.
The other amusing points are the
numerous remedies suggested for
killing the ticks. We have no time
to argue the case, but we know from
actual experience and trial, that
none Of these substances when fed
to the cattle cause the ticks to
drop off, nor will they keep the
ticks from getting on the cattle. The
ticks drop off all right, but it is be-
cause they have matured on the cat
tie and arrived at the stage of their
development when it is necessary
that they leave the cattle.

or ten species of ticks that get on

August J., and the only one that
common, we'll known tick that gets

mules and deer; but IL is not the
tick that gets on man, dogs. rabbits,

named.
No Treatment for Tick Fever.
We have also been asked how to
treat tick fever, and how cattle that
have been grown to an age of a year
or more, In the tick-free area, may
be brought to a tick-infested area
without loss.
In the first place, 1t may as well
be plainly stated that there Is no
satisfactory treatment for tick fever.
There is no treatment that Is likely
to pay for the expense and trouble
involved. On the other hand. cattle
