TO RID VIRGINIA OF TICKS.

Washington, Nov 22.-Great adj
vances made this year in eradication
of the cattle tick from nine Southern
States will result, it is believed, in
such interest among Virginia farm
ers, cattle raisers and business men

under Federal quarantine will be
cleared of the cattle parasite in 1918
and added to the free areas, Such a
result would make Virginia hun

has been held back by halted work in
the small portion still quarantined.
The Virginia counties still under
quarantine are Isle of Wight, South
ampton, Nansemond, and part of Sur
ry, all of which are together in the
Southeastern corner of the State.
Fine progress in tick eradication
was made in Virginia until these
counties were reached. 1t is but a
years job to clear them from cattle
ticks and free the entire State, ac-
cording to Department Of Agriculture
officials. Cattle dipping watts already

the laws now in force are said to be
sufficient toenable Federal co-opera-
ton.

leased on September /. The release
next preceding that was on December
