Tick Eradication.

Very nearly one third of the state
of Arkansas is now free from ticks and
the entire state, it is estimated. can be
released from quarantine in two or
three years if there Is cooperation to
that end. The work is being carried
on by the Federal Government, the
state and the various counties. Co
operation between all persons con
cerned is vital to success. The FEEDER
al government enforces interstate
guarantees, but is not permitted bv
law to build dipping watts nor to supply
dipping materials except for expert
mental purposes. The state and coun-
ty authorities must do this work them
selves, and they must also enforce the
guarantees on individual farms whose
owners refuse to dip their stock in
counties where systematic eradication
work has been undertaken. No svs-
tematic work is undertaken in a county
unless the majority of the people agree
that they wish to make a determined
effort to rid themselves of the tick.
One obstinate man who refuses to dip
his cattle may keep the whole county
back, unless he is compelled to keep
his stock at home.
At the end of 1914 there were 200
dipping watts in operation in Arkansas,
number which compares somewhat
=
unfavorably with the 2,352 in Missis-
sippi, but which is considerably greater
than the number in several other
states.

very little attention and less money

OF agriculture.
The problem is a monumental one
and one which will never be solved
until il gets within the grasp of
gigantic organization where master
minds can concentrate the combined
experience and wisdom OF the age

farmers. merchants, bankers, editors
and statesmen must unite in solving.

Rointed Points on Rye.

Many questions are being received at the

Swedish and Dean are the hardy varieties

Of hve pecks per acre in the eastern part of
the state and three to four pecks west.
Best results have obtained by seeding rye in
clean corn stubble, or between rows of corn

depth of inches rolled, doubled narrowed,
and seeded with a doubledisk drill and will
give fair yields in the eastern part of the
state, but has not tecn profitable as the hrst
method. Summer fallow is good prepaI-
alton for rye in the western section.
Rye is subject to ergot and should not

oats may not be ripe when the 4ye is hal
vested, some seeds will probably mature
sufficiently to terminate if any are scatter
Ned out on tine land. Rye will help by re-
ducing the amount of wild oats. Rye Can
can be grown successfully on all good farm
land in the state. 1t has proved the most
dependable small grain crop in Hyde county
making fair yield in recent years when
wheat and oats failed. It is well to remem-
Der that rye crosses. Not more that one
variety should be grown on single farm
unless isolated in some manner.
Potatoes Are field plse ased
