What Cattle
Ticks Look Like

In the current Farm and Preside
published at Springfield, Ohio, APP
pears an account of how the South is
being freed of the cattle ticks which
in the past have caused fully S35,c00-
900 losses to the cattle industry. In
the following extract taken from tho
article appears an Interesting account
of this wonderful little pest:
investigations by Dr.. II. w. Gray
bill of the Department of Agriculture
show there is only one true fever
tick, This tick sometimes Is found
on the bodies of buffalo, deer, horses
mules, and sheep.
None of these animals, except deer
and buffalo, contract tick feVer'
hence they are carriers of ticks but
not OF theNdisease.
"The true cattle fever tick in It's
adult stage IA an olive green or drao
insect usually fat, being engorseu
with cattle blood. Ticks of all ages
and in every stage of development
usually adhere to cows or steer
hide. A female will adhere FOR from
81 to Sc days until she is fully en-
eorged with blood, when she drops
% the ground and begins laying 5,ooo
eggs.
"The female tick usually seeks
moist hiding place under ruoplsh,
where her brood may hatch sheltered
enemies. Freezing weather destroys
large numbers.
The eggs arel aid usually in the
the spring, about 2 to 20 days after
the mother tick has dropped TO the
ground. II the egg laying starts N
winter. IL occurs after a lapse OF III
70 9S days. The eggs are amber COL
ored a fiftieth of an inch long anu
elllptical. The female covers the
eggs with sticky substance whicn
causes them to adhere in clusters
Cold weather interferes with egg lay
ing which is usually completed In
four days in the summer and l0'
days in the winter. The female dies
after egg laying. Nineteen days al
ter laying in the summer the eggs
hatch. During the winter 1t requires
1873 days. From each egg a six leg
ged larva energies, called a seed tick
For several days It remains dormant
and then shows great activity, crawl
ing to the highest weed and grass
stems. Whenever weeds or grass
stems are disturbed the tiny insects
clutch the air vigoosurly trying t.
fasten onto passing animal.
"Unless a seed tick reaches steer
or COW within six to eight months 4
will perish from lack of hose, OF
whose blood alone It can live"
