TICKS COST FARMERS
100000 A YEAR
Commissioner Sloan Says Farm
ers Do Not Realize Enormi-
ty of Tick Problem

State Agricultural Commission
er, Clay Sloan estimates that the
farmers of Arkansas annually lose
a tremendous amount through
the infestation of the Texas fever
tick. He has just issued a state
ment to the farmers, in which he
says:
eve must drive the tick out of
Arkansas, and get the whole state
North of the quarantine line. Sec
tons of the State that has no tick,
if South of the line, are harmed to
no little degree. When cattle are
shipped to market from South OF
the line, even though they never
knew the bite of a tick, they are
counted as tick cattle and sell
from one half to one cent less pei
pound on that account, an aver
age of about $4 per head. If we
were to ship to st. Louis or Chi
cago the 100000 head of cattle
now in Arkansas below the quar-
antine line, we would realize
100000 less for them than if
they had been shipped from any
point above the line. The
100000 would kill every tick in
Arkansas and create some conster-
nation among the chiggers. Ten
per cent of that amount would
put us above the line.
"You don't have to have the
tick really and in fact, to be harm
ed by it. You only have to be
South of the line. You can't sell
your cattle while they are fat on
cheap feed of summer and fall
grasses; they can be shipped only
in late winter when they are poor
after the quarantine is raised.
Let's move up above the line
where every day is a sale day, and
we will have buyers for the calf
as we'll as for the big beef steer.
"The u. S. Department of Agri-
culture computes that Arkansas
lost eight per cent of its cattle last
year by disease of all kinds, while
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Kansas and
other Northern states, even with
their long severe winters and ter
rible billiards., lost only two per
cent. Ticks cut the milk of cows
"a per cent on the same feed. You
cannot improve your cattle stock.
The tick will kill the better breeds
if you introduce them. The blood
ed stock introduced is killed with
out exception.

SHOULD BENEFIT FARMERS

To complain at the high cost of
living is rather bad taste for farm
ers, who above all men should prof.
it by high prices for food products.
The producer should be selling the

THRILLING EXPERIENCE
Projectile From Indian Head Flows
Up Ground and Cauaes Scare at
Quantico.

Captain Henry Simmons, of this
city,whiIe at Quantico yesterday mar
rowiy escaped death or serious in
Jury as we'll as eight men who were
with him in house at that place. The
captain says one of the heavy siege
guns was discharged at Indian Head,
eight miles away, on the Maryland
side of the river The projectile
passed across the Potomac and pass
ed within few feet of the house in
which the men were seated, struck
the ground some distance away, plow-
ing a deep furrow, and after emerg-
ing from a small hillock kept upon its
course, throwing earth in every di-
rection. A cow which was grazing
nearby had its jawbone broke by the
flying earth and was rendered blind.
The iron projectile was subsequently
measured and found to be four feet
long. While it was passing over the
house it made noise as of a mingling
of the clatter of several flying ships
and the Kissing of huge aerolite.
Shortly after the discharge of the
gun several persons gathered, one OF
whom took pictures of the COW and
the upturned earth.
