Inspection for Imported Percherons.

The Percheron Society of America
has formulated plans for the inspec-
ton of all animals imported to this
country, and these plans will be
made the basis of a systematic in
spection just as soon as practicable.
Animals will not only be examined
for soundness, but their breeding and
their identity will have TO be estab-
lished. All animals as to which
doubt exists will be denied registra-
ton, and an effort will be made to
keep unsound animals and those of
impure breeding out of the country.
Such a determined effort to keep the
breed up to high standard can not
fail to be of great value in many
ways. 1t is an excellent example for
other associations to follow.

because we do not ship many cattle
The fallacy of this can not fail O
recognition by any one who will Civ,
it a moments serious thought. The
prices of cattle are fixed in the large
cattle markets. Where are these
markets? Those which regulate the
prices of cattle in this country are
all north of the tick quarantine line
1t is apparent, then, that cattle are
worth in Mississippi, for instance
just what they are worth in st
Louis, less what it costs to shiI
them from Mississippi to st. Louis
That this holds good on all cattle
sold in the South is apparent, for il
it were not so. then cattle traders
would ship them to the place which
offered the higher price. 1t. there.
fore, follows that every animal sold
in the South, whether by one farmer
to another, or to the local butcher
or to the cattle shipper, sells for a
lower price because of this quaran.
tine line.
The placing of any sort OF restric-
tion on the marketing of any product
depresses the price. The loss from
this one effect of the quarantine on
Southern cattle is probably not less
than s2,000,000 annually TO the cat
tie owners Of Mississippi, Alabama
Louisiana, and Arkansas
Could Eradicate Ticks for Less Than
They Cost in Five Years.
Those living some distance from
the quarantine line can not be made
to realize these facts. but those liv.
ling along the quarantine line need
not be told Of the injury sustained
from the restrictions placed on tn.
marketing Of their cattle In these
cases 1t is not at all rare for cattl,

to eradicate the ticks. Yet there are
people who call themselves intelli
gent, who pretend to believe that the
TICKS can not be eradicated, or op
pose permitting the National and the
State Governments helping us to de
it.
This alone is sufficient reason why
we should eradicate the cattle ticks

Government, and probably a major
ity of those who do know of the ex-
istence of this quayatine do not be-
lieve or realize that it effects every
cattle owner in the South.
A line has been drawn across the
country from the Atlantic to the Pa
cifc Ocean, all territory south of
this line is supposed to be more or
less infested with the Southern cat
tie fever tick.
Cattle may cross this line from
the south, only when shipped by
rail or boat to certain large markets
in the North and only to these under
rather rigid restrictions
For instance, animals going north
of this line during the greater part
Of the year must go to the large
markets where the Government has
inspectors and other facilities for
handling them. and must be slaught-
cred at once. In other words, cattle
can not be shipped from the South
to go into Northern dairies, into
Northern feed lots. or on Northern
pastures, except for a short time
during the winter, and even this
privilege is not extended to our cat
tie by some Northern States and will
probably be withdrawn by all in the
near future.
What the Quarantine Line Means to
Under certain conditions, one of
which is that the cattle be dipped in
a specified manner and inspected by
Of Federal officer, some States will
accept our cattle for other than i'm
mediate slaughter; but comparative
ly speaking, practically all the cattle
shipped from this part of the tick
infested area go to the large mar
kets and are slaughtered at once.
But this is only one Of the restric-
tions which are put on our cattle.
They must, when shipped north Of the
quarantine line, go to separate part
OF the stock yards set aside for cat
tie from the tick-infested area. To
make certain that these cattle will
go to the quarantine pens" the
laws require the railroads to mark
each waybill and each car CARRYING
Southern cattle across the auaran-
tine line, showing that the cattle are
from the quarantined area. The cost
OF maintaining separate yards, the
marking OF cars and the disinfecting
OF these cars before they can be used
Tor other purposes constitute charges
which the Southern cattle shipper
must pay, and if anyone doubts that
we pay them he has only to compare
the freight rates charged by the
railroads in the South with the rates
charged by Northern roads.
But the most important fact con-
nected with the requirement that
Southern cattle must be slaughtered
at once, il they go north of the
quarantine line is. that the buvers
knowing that our cattle can not go
into Northern pastures, nor into
Northern feed lots. but must he
slaughtered at once or be shipped
back home, buy these cattle for from
&c. to &c. pound less than they
pay for the same quality of cattle on
which there are no restrictions.
What the Loss in Value Amounts to.
Probably most Southern cattle
owners are laboring under the false
impression that this depreciation of
