TICK ERADICATION
IN LOUISIANA CATTLE
Value of Cattle Increased $500 per
Head BY Eradication of Tick at
Cost of Only so Cents Head
Oft1ce of Information, U. S. Depart.
ment of Agriculture.

Office of Information, u. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture.
washington, D. c., Aug. 14.-That
the eradication of the cattle.tick has
increased the value of cattle $500 per
head in certain counties of Mississippi
the report OF one of the inspectors of
the Bureau of Animal industry, U. S.
Department Of Agriculture. The cost
to the people for this eradication in
tWenty'one counties was no more than
Sl0OOO0. In return they have received
during the past year $2,148,839 in in.
creased valuation of their cattle and
this increase will be permanent so long
as the counties are free from ticks.
The cost Of tick eradication was only so
cents per head
That the tick has been one of the
! greatest deterrents to cattle raising in
the South is fact which the Southern
farmers are beginning to appreciate.
Up to date, however, these states have
not begun to raise the possible number
or cattle per acre., The failure of the
Southern farmers to avail themselves
of their full opportunities in this line
has contributed Importantly to the
general cattle shortage, which has
amounted to 80 per cent since 1906 for
the whole country.
The rapid increase of population has
meanwhile made necessary a greater
supply of meat for consumption. AS a
consequence, packers are beginning to
look to other quarters for a supply.
There should however be no need of
drawing permanently on the supplies
of other countries while the total
yearly cattle output may be so greatly
improved by tick eradication through.
out the South.
Just SO long as counties continue to
raise ticks, there is scarcely any
chance of building up permanent and
profitable cattle INDUSTRY. For this
reason it is encouraging for those
farmers still subject to the scourge to
note the wonderful improvement made
in districts where there has been
vigorous campaign on the part of the
county for the destruction of the
tick.
Certain counties in Mississippi are
still quarantined because of the ticks
devaStations and are loosing annually
not less than three million dollars.
This estimate is based on the number
of cattle that these counties are capable
of producing. They stand in marked
contrast to the other counties already
mentioned where the total increased
valuation of the free cattle was over
two million dollars. Yet the estimate
for the complete eradication of the pest
from the infected counties and the
saving of this annual loss of three
millions has been placed by experts
at only $4,000.
According to the specialists, tick
eradication is of such vital Importance
to every one of the Southern states
that no let up should be made until
the complete destruction of every tick
is accomplished. As soon as each state
succeeds in this it will be on the way
toward the successful development of
its cattle raising. A general campaign
A general campaign should bring as
satisfactory results everywhere as it
has in the Mississippi counties where
the work has been thorough.

AT first McManuS was afraid that

fond of it.

Lytde held out his hand as the
