in small quantities in and upon the
skin Of cattle which are repeatedly
dipped in arsenical dips.
The discovery Of the European OK
MARBLE in certain sections of the North
makes this pest significant to northern
cattle raisers and to those who import
pure-bred or other cattle from these
sections. During the winter and spring
months considerable numbers Of pure
bred live stock are purchased in the
northeastern states and are shipped to
various parts of the country. 1t is
urged that all animals thus transport
ed be examined by the purchasers and
all grubs destroyed during the spring
and summer. Animals purchased at
any season of the year may harbor
these pests. In the winter and spring
they will be found beneath the skin on
the back, while at other times of the
year the grubs are elsewhere In the
body of the host, and it will be neces-
sary to watch for the appearance of
these grubs during the following sea-
son. In those states ia which regis
tration of all imported animals is re-
quired it would be comparatively easy
for the authorities to follow up such
importations and see that any MARBLES
are destroyed.

100000 miles of unimproved public

they must haul their products to mar

100000 every year. or about the total
assessed value of property, real and
personal, in South Carolina That they
are independent Of good roads to
their own great loss is evidenced by
the enormous waste OF both money
and muscle In trying to do business
without good roads and their appar-
ent lack OF interest In compelling their
representatives in legislatures and
congress to provide highways for their
service
Good roads are equally necessary

report. not only to economical produc-
tion and distribution. but to the pro-

for roads which will get products from
the farm to the nearest railway sta
ton, enabling the farmer to haul when
he cannot SOW or reap, and to haul at
lower rate, to transport his children
to consolidated schools and to enjoy
comfortably his social enterprises
There can be, indeed, no such thing as
community life without good roads. To

easily put into effect on small farms
and in dairies. In the southern states
the herds should be gone over early in.
December and about twice later at
monthly intervals. In the northern
states the extraction should be begun
six weeks to two months later. II NO
grubs are allowed to drop to the
ground and reach maturity, the num-
Der appearing lin cattle In subsequent
years win be materially reduced, and
If extraction Is followed up for several
years almost complete eradication will
result. or course 1t Is important
where possible to get concerted ac-
ton among the stockmen in the de-
struction of these pests.
In extensive experiments along this
line in Germany 1t was determined that
the cost of removing all of the MARBLES
from the backs of cattle during one
season was about three cents per head.
In this case men were employed es-
pecially to do the work. 1t is possible
for practically every farmer and dairy
man in this country to accomplish this
work without material expense or loss
of time.
1t is suggested that in those COM
munities where cow-testing associa-
tions have been formed the men
charged with this work could in many
cases devote part of their time to edu-
eating the stock raisers as to the
losses caused by OK MARBLES, and to
aiding the members of the association
in destroying the pests.
Investigations conducted by the de-
partment indicate that eradication
also may be accomplished by the use
of arsenical dips, which are extensive
ly employed at the present time for
destroying cattle ticks. These inves-
LEGATIONS are being extended, and ex-
perimental work is in progress which
it is hoped may establish effective and
practicable methods of destroying war
bles. The arsenical dip appears to act
not upon the well-developed grub be-
meath the skin, but upon the eggs or
the newly Matched larvae, probably
the latter. 1t is not unlikely that the
destructive action of arsenical dips up
on MARBLES is more or less dependent
upon the fact that arsenic Is stored up

Resolution No. 2 also adopted by
the meeting, reads as follows
10 Year Guarantee.
In view Of a state wide demand and
agitation for improved roads; We, the
Good Roads Committee Of Umatilla
County, oregon. do Resolve as fol-
lows:
First. That the bonding Of Umatilla
county At this time for so vast a sum
as s9S0.O00 is unwarranted and would
be a burden rather than an asset and
its submission to the people would
create a widespread feeling against
good roads.
Second. That, we do favor an an
rual special road tax for the purpose
O. building permanent roads but in
no case shall the tax 50 levied be for
any sum in excess Of 100000 annu-
ally.
Third, That any monies secured by
the above method for the purpose oi
building permanent roads shall be APP
piled By the County Court Of Umatilla
county TO such roads as may be lOcat-
ed By them after due conference with
the taxpayers Of the county.
Fourth. That direct supervision Of
the construction Of said permanent
roads shall be by the County Court OF
Umatilla county under the advice Of
a competent and accredited road engl-
neer.

Fifth, That only open bids for the
road work which may be proposed
shall be entertained and any respon-
sible road builders may compete for
their construction providing they give
an acceptable bond guaranteeing their
permanency and upkeep for a period
Of ten years.
