A pure bred, tick-free bull consti-
tutes about three-quarters of the herd
when mated to Florida native scrub
COWS, as very few cattle mature larg-
er than their sires.
The greatest handicap to getting a
larger supply of the good bulls is that
the cattle ticks endanger the lives of
those brought into tick-infested terri
tory from outside of the quarantine
district, by inoculating them with Tex
as fever heterogeneous, and there
are very few pure bred bulls raised
under administration conditions.
So Florida cattle men, as rule,
have been using the little tick-infest-
ed bulls they have raised on the range,
getting calves which are correspond
ingly small and low in value.
A contrast in beef values was re-
ported at the live stock sale in Jack
sonvllle on October 20, when one of
the cattle men stated that he had OBJ
talned four times as much for some
grade Shorthorn yearlings as for some
scrub yearlings, both raised free of
ticks, the figures being as follows:
those sired by little scrub bull
weighed 375 pounds and brought only
four cents per pound, owing to lack
of beef quality in the carcasses, while
those sired by a pure bred Shorthorn
bull weighed $50 pounds and brought
eight cents per pound, or $50 per
head, as against SIS each for the
scrubs.
Pure Bred Bull Was Profitable
The mothers of both lots of calves
were scrub cows of about the same
age and size, from which the ticks had
been eradicated, so the sire was worth
$45 per head for each one of his
calves, as both lots were matured on
pasture at practically the same ex-
penseE The only reason he used any
The evening leader., 1916-11-29

scrub bulls was because he did not
have enough pure bred bulls for his
herd. but he since has eliminated all
of the scrubs.
A 500 pound, six months old tick
free calf sired by pure bred Short
horn bull was shown with its scrub
mother, at the sale, and attracted con-
siderable attention. At the last South
Florida Fair, held at Tampa, a six
months old calf sired by Shorthorn
bull weighed so pounds more than its
mother, which was one of the piney
woods breed.
Offspring of other pure bred type
bulls show just as good results and
it is a matter Of personal choice as
to which breed to select.
The small number of really good
beef animals in the state is shown by
the Thirteenth Biennial Report Of
Florida's Department of Agriculture.
1t was necessary to pool the number
of grades and pure bred animals in
each breed to make any kind OF
showing.
Pure Bred Cattle In Florida
The figures show that there were
only 41S representatives Of the Aber-
deem Angus breed, but they were list
ed at an average of $3S each, three
times the value of native individuals.
The Shorthorns, which numbered
1,346, were valued at an average of
$50 per head, and 1901 Herefords car
ried an average value of $27.50 each,
but there were S55,95S of the little,
scrub native tick-infested cattle, val
ued at $12.75 per head.
The future of the beef industry in
the United States looks very bright
and a large number of Florida ranch
and farm owners are eradicating the
ticks as rapidly as possible so they
can use tick-free pure bred beef type
bulls to head their herds of native
COWS, and take advantage of their op-
portunity. -.

A DAY SET ASIDE FOR YOU

Thanksgiving day this year finds
us at peace, and for this fact, above
all others, the American people give
thanks. No nation in the world is as
powerful and as pacific. Through
out the globe our people are deemed
true believers in the policy of peace
with all others.
! Annually set apart by the president
and the governors of the various
states, Thanksgiving Day is observed
with religious services in the churches
and as national holiday. 1t is dis
tin9tive feature of our national life.
The. Pilgrims set aside thanksgiv-
ing day in 1921. The Massachusetts
Bay colony adopted the idea in 1880,
when it became an annual festival in
that colony. Connecticut and the
Dutch of New Netherlands had occas-
ional days for giving thanks.
During the war for independence
the continental congress appointed a
day each year, except in 1777; each
time recommending 1t to the execu-
tives of the state. Washington ap-
pointed a day in 1889 and 1875. Madi-
son set aside day at the close of the
war of 1912. Afterwards it gradual
ly gained favor and in 1858 twenty
five governors and two territories ap-
pointed days of thanksgiving. Since
Lincoln proclaimed the fourth Thurs
day of November in 1854 every presi-
dent has annually followed his exam.
pie.
Thanksgiving, however, is more
than a national holiday marked by
religious services. 1t is a day upor
which all citizens, regardless of theil
faiths, should take time to realize
the blessings under which they live
Who can consider the benefcence Of
present existence without a deer
sense of gratitude to the Ruler of ere
Sted things?
1t should mean more than this
unless you have driven resentment
from your heart, and set aside human
iealousies, you cannot partake Of tht
spirit Of the occasion. The observ
ance of this day, set apart by you
president and the governor of YOU
state, rests chiefly with you. 1t il

Mysophobia.

The famous dictionary compiler, DR..
Samuel Johnson, was impelled to touch
and count all the palings in fences he
passed, and if he thought he had
missed one he would start back and
repeat the nOnsensical enumeration.
Mysophobia is an annoying obsession
of this sort and more frequent than
supposed, as the patients try to keep
their peculiar behavior from notice. 1t
is fear of uncleanliness or Of con-
tamination.
