AS IS well known ticks are the only
means OF spreading splenetie fever
In most cases the eradication Of the
TICK has been accompanied by the i'm
portatlotl Of valuable pure-bred stock,
and cattlenen N these areas are de-
termlned to be rid OF the danger of
reanfectlon. Moreover, the existence
IN the midst Of tiek-free territory OF
isolated ticlsy counties interferes with
the movement of stock and hampers
ID number OF ways the full realiza-
non Of the benefits Of eradication.
Under the new law the statewide
campaign Of elimination will not be-
GIN until Jan. /, 1917. The inter-
vanlng time It is planned 10 utilize Id
the construction OF dipping watts In
those counties which have not vet
done any systematic work. As d mat
ter OF fact, there are some dipping
watts n every county now which are
being used by individual farmers to
tree their own herds, but IN most
cases the number Is not sufficient for
the rsasla all cattle The
