 A large number of cattle over the county are suffering from ear ticks. It is impossible for cattle to put on flesh when badly infected with these pests. This is true even though they may have access to the best of feed. | It takes such short time to treat an entire herd. The government is rec ommending the use of parts of com merCial pine tar and one part of cot ton seed oil One half ounce of this may be squirted into each ear and within few minutes the ticks will be dead It is very cheap and easily pre- pared remedy. Several calves were found this past week that were sui fering with not only the ear tick, but they had the body tick and lice. Some of these calves were in such weak l ened condition as to be easy prey to coyotes.
