i every year means a loss of near ly S2. 000.o00 The To in market values on these 590. GOO cattle average about S650. 900 ev- cry 12 months. In this area there is a 20 per cent decrease in the milk flow because of the ticks, entailing a loss of about $2, 000,000 yearly. Totalling these losses, which are conser- vatively estimated, the people of this State are nearly $5, 900, 900 poorer each year because of the ticks. But the greatest loss is from the danger of bringing in pure bred animals from above the quarantine line. But the people can get rid of the ticks in the next couple of years by concent- rated efforts of the 75 counties in the State. Those that are now free of ticks are Benton, Carroll, Washington, Madison, Newton Boone, Fulton, Ran dolph, Lawrence, Clay, Greene, Iraighead, Mississippi, Poinsett,  Crittenden, and parts of Marion. Baxter, Sharp, Jackson, Cross St. Francis and Lee. In the tick free area is nearly 13,000 square miles, or about one-fourth the State.
 h the territory where we are now working there are about 180 Yats in operation under supervis- iou. At these Yag5 about 45. 900 cattle are dipped every month. h the tick infested area many yats have been built by indlvid- uals, and these are d great heip.
 The people in all the tick count les should urge the Legislature to include these counties in either the North western or the north eastern districts, the Legislature hsving divided the State into two districts for the fight on the tick. They should also urge their rep resentatives to increase the pre- sent tax of 5 cents head on cat tie that is levied in counties now in the districts. This tax is very small. and if it is increased for the new counties coming into the districts, the work will go on very much faster.
 The Profitable Farming Cam paign through the State in Nov ember is a wonderful opportunity to popularize the fight against the tick. When all of the people once realize what a tremendous drain the tick is on their wealth they will give active support to the fight.
