HARM DONE BY CATTLE TICKS
People Of Infested Sections Must Get
Together and Build Watts and
Dip All Animals.


The department Of agriculture has
recently issued the following ques-
tions and answers:
What do the thousand ticks eat?
Blood.
Where does the blood come from?
From the grass, silage, corn, cot
tonseed meal and other feed your cat
tie eat.
Oh-then the tick eats my feed?
Yes, but he first makes your cat
tie do all the work of turning feed
into blood.
But what is cattle blood worth?
So much a pound when it goes INTO
beef-so much a quart when it goes
to make milk.
How much blood do ticks eat?
Where they are thick they eat 200
pounds of blood a year from a 1000
pound steer.
How much milk do they take out
in blood?
A few on COW reduce the milk
yield one and one-half quarts day
lots Of them will cut the milk down
over three quarts.
Then the ticks are drawing on my
bank account?
They are certainly keeping your
balances In the veal stage.
And my neighbors?
The tick is sucking $5O.00O,5OO a
year from the South.
What is the answer?
You and the farmers, business men,
bankers and people Of the country
must get together and build dipping
vats and dip all cattle in an arsenicaI
bath, which kills the ticks.

The automobile has been found to
be such an important feature Of the
war operations that the German gov
ernment has undertaken to increase
the efficiency Of the motor car by
keeping the roads free of glass. Dras-
tic orders have been issued on this
subject, and the school children in all
parts Of the country have been in
structed to look carefully over the
roadways which they have to pass,
and to pick up every bit Of broken
glass, or sharp piece Of metal, which
might be injurious to automobiles. Per
sons who are seen to drop glass or
bottles upon the highways are sub
jected to severe reDrimand on the first
occasion and to a fine on the second.
Motorists who in former years have
been suffering from the broken glass
and sharp tacks on roads and streets
declare that the order has cleaned the
roads as if by magic, and that pune
lures or blowouts are rare things al
present.
