Let Mississ ipDi Show the Wav.

DR.. J. A. Herman, who has charge
Of the tick eradication work for the
United States Government in Missis-
sippi, Alabama and Tennessee in max
ing an effort to start a state wide
movement IN Mississippi for the eradi-
cation of the ticks. This is not only
practicable. but is so plainly the sensi-
bic thing to do that it is surprising
that hny county in the state, or any
state in the Union, is willing to longer
submit to this Notwithstanding pest.
Tae'proof is abundant and conclusive
that the tick can be promptly eradi-
Gated and kept out at a cost far below
the damage done each year. With the
facts and experience available, Missis-
sippi ought to promptly make the fight
on the tick statewide. OF course,
some counties will be controlled by
s~elishness or ignorance, but if the ma
jority join the movement, the non-pro-
pressive counties will have to fall in
line for progress.
Recently we reported a number of
counties which had appropriated money
for the building of dipping watts, and at
the June meeting of the boards of su-
pervisors the following counties also
joined the movement and appropriated
funds for the building OF dipping watts:
Bolivar, Washington and I~ssaquena.
This makes every Mississippi county
bordering on the Mississippi river ac-
lively engaged in the tick eradication
work.
The railroads have also been made to
see the advantages to result from Grad
icating the cattle ticks and are CO.
operating actively with the state and
national forces.
A territory of 143, 900 square miles
has been cleared of ticks since 1905,
which is more than three times the
size of the state of Mississippi. This
has been done, why can't Mississippi
be cleaned by a statewide movement
in the mex two years? There can be
but one influence which will prevent
this progress: Indifference, the out
growth of lack of knowledge. Let US
make Mississippi the leader in this
progressive movement, as the first
state to inaugurate a statewide move
ment for the eradication of this need
ness and easily removable tax on our
agriculture. Get your county to join
the large number which have already
begun the building of dipping yats.-

We are pleased to hear so many IA
vorable reports on the progress of tick
eradication in Noxubee county. Those
who have put in dipping watts will never
abandon their use, as evidences of the
Improvement in cattle are seen where
ever the directions of the instructor
are followed out. The large dairy IN
~terests Of the county are, perhaps, the
greatest beneficiaries, and in every IN
stance the dairymen report increased
flows of milk from their COWS n a
healthier condition of their entire
herds. What little opposition t the
dipping requirement. exists, comes
from those who have eve tried it on,
else have not followed the instructions
of inspectors in charge. Our county is
to be congratulated On having such a
courteous and capable gentleman II

OUTPUT OF OIL IN STATE.
Government Issues Some Interesting
Statistics.


Observation-Disclosures to information
furnished by the United States Depart-
ment OF Commerce and Labor, "a, 1886 800
gallons OF cottonseed oil were produced
In Mississippi in 1909. This was worth
approximately $9,754,52 This is CON
siderable amount of money and the mar
ket which demands this product is an
important one to the people of the state.
This Tact has led men who wish to
see oleomargarine take the plaee Of
butter to make it appear that the man
ufacture of oleomargarine furnishes one
OF the greatest, if not the greatest, rea-
sons for this market demand. But such
IL not the case. In fact, the value of
the eottonseed Oil used in the manufsc-
ture of this product is so small in com
parison that it is not worthy of the
least consideration, especially when the
value OF the dairy products of the state
are considered.
In 1908 the value of the cotton.ced
oil used in the manufacture Of oleomar-
garine in this country was $4o9, ,45S.42.
The value of all the cottonsecd oil pro-
"NNSN III AVO9 M'o "pPioAliiiieSiy @oo,,
331-400. This means that less than 1
per cent of the cottonseed oil sold was
used in making oleomargarine.
According to the department report,
Mississippi produced about Is per cent
of all the cottonseed oil produced in
1909. Using this figure for 1908, it is
shown that the value of the cottonsccd
oil used in oleomargarine returned to
the cotton farmers OF Mississippi the COM
paratively small amount Of s74, ,o1s.o7.
According to figures compiled by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
tlne The value of the butter produced in
Mississippi in 1905 was SILL, 1,036, or
for every dollars worth Of cottonseed oil
used in making oleomargarine the cows
Of the state returned over 500 worth of
dairy products.
These are facts which the farmers of
Mississippi should carefully consider be-
fore they lend their support to any move
ment which discourages dairying An
increase in the production of dairy pro-
ducts in Mississippi will be just sixty
nine times OF greater value than an in
creade in the production of oleomarsa-
rine.
