Nc COMPLAINT FROM BRITAIN

.Tdc reason given 10y the German Chan
ceIIor for not admitting American dressed
beef or American live cattle is very far
fetched and indeed absolutely wrong. The
proof Of this assertion is that for many
years Great Britain has been receiving
both dressed beef and live cattle from the
United States and mp to the present time
there has never been any outbreak of Texas
fever there due to such importauons.
IS nee the nature of this disease was
determined the Department OF Agriculture
has maintained q quarantine upon that sec
ton Of the United States where the tick
exists. This line Of quarantine originally
included all tho northern section of Nir-
ginia the western section OF North Caro-
lima. including about one-half Of Tennes-
see: an Of Arkansas. the greater portion
OF oklahoma and Texas. and in California
that region south OF Sacramento. While
this quarantine was being maintained it
was observed that IL was possible TO free
certain areas Of the tick by removing cat
lie from an infected district until the ticks
in that section had all died Of starvation.
Another scheme was that Of burning over
such infected pastures. This method, how
ever. was not very satisfactory. as some
areas would remain unburned and the past
urcs would again become infected.
The most practical method in use now
is 10 dip the cattle at regular intervals
that is. by means of a simple apparatus
70 duck the cattle. one by one, in tanks
filed with a chemical solution which kills
the ticks For a long time it was a diff
cult matter 10 find an effective dipping
solution. Many Years were spent In the
effort 10 find one that would destroy the
lcks without injuring the cattle, but finally
2 satisfactory solution was found. The
dip now generally used is composed of ar
senic although certain crude oil dips are
effective in killing the ticks, but they are
liable 20 injure the cattle.
"In 1876 Congress made the first specific
appropriation looking 10 the eradication OF
this TICK I'm the Southern States. Since
that time about 1900 square miles Of ter
ntory has been released from quarantine.
Our reason for trying to kill the tick is
not only TO remove an existing source Of
danger TO livestock outside of the quaran-
tine area. but also to permit the breeding
