TO ERADICATE
The CATTLE TICK

Columbia, S. c., Oct 22.-(Special.) }
1t is conservatively estimated that
the cattle tick causes loss of be-
tween fifty and one, hundred million
dollars annually to the south" This
statement is made by DR.. e. M, Nigh
bert, OF the United States bureau of
animal industry, who has charge OF
arrangements for the cattle dipping
vat to be installed for demonstration
purposes at the Fifth National Corn
Exposition here next January. by
cooperative efforts" says DR.. Nigh.
bert, the tick can be eradicated from
any farm, no matter what the condi-
tions, within six to nine months"
This cattle dipping vat at the ex-
position viii be used to demonstrate
the practical use of this most effective
and most certain method Of ridding
cattle of this pest. This demonstra-
ton is one feature of the comprehen-
sive exhibit from the federal depart
ment of agriculture, which, together
with the educational exhibits from
many state agricultural colleges and
experiment stations, and competitive
exhibits from many states, gives the
exposition its recognized value as a
potent factor in the agricultural de-
yelopment of the nation.
''The cattle tick prevents safe breed
ing, handling and marketing OF cattle
because it transmits disease to every
animal 1t infests," says DR.. Nighbert.
in pointing out the necessity for the
eradication of the pest. The cattle
tick is easily, permanently and mex
pensibly eradicated by dipping cattle
in a concrete vat containing the stan
dard solutions"

The tariff argument works steadily
and effectively against republicans in
the campaign of this year. The abuses
and extortions of the tariq law. which
was continued in force, almost un-
changed. by an act of republican bad
faith have been too often exposed for
deception to be longer possible. The
hardship, the injustice, the outroge of
extortionate duties are felt as they
have never been felt before. The
panic cry is heard with derision, not
only because the people are used to
it but because of its hollow insincerity.
The people were cheated Of their
hopes when the republicans revised
the tariff in 1909. They are now in
a mood to insist upon downward re-
vision in good faith. They clearly
see that that kind of revision will be
undertaken only by the democrats.
The republican party and the progress
sive party are committed to protection,
their attitudesis practically that of the
standpatter A vote for Wilson is the
only vote that will count for tariff re-
duction.

appropriate speech formally delivered
to the president the keys of the uni

especially mastery, strong and com.
prehensive. In that address he DEM
onstrated to every one present that he
is thoroughly familiar with the eduea-
tional requirements of the people of
the state and every educator present
was forcibly impressed with the com.
prehensive manner in which the presi-
dent outlined the duties of state uni
versity to the citizens of the state and
the policies which he as president
would endeavor to adhere

delegates and officials in the gymnas-
ium, after which delegates and visi-

ton shall hence forth be free from
political domination which has here
tofore hampered the progress and serv-
ice of the university to the state.
