Keen Makes
Strong Speech Behalf of
Tick Eradication

Better cattle said he "and they know
that dipping them will add 70 their

In response to a question from
Keen of Polk, he said II was his un-
derstanding that Lykes Bros. were
opposed to local option dipping two
years and fought It but that they were
now ready for statewide dipping To
begin at once, and were dipping ell
their own cattle.
Wilson of Polk told of his old home

fat pine lands where in his boyhood
the range cattle reigned supreme and
where they were the same ticky.

Florida The section has beer freed
from the tick and he tol Of the
great difference seen there in q re-
cent trip with herds of good grade
cattle dotting the country and the
farmers much more prosperous.
Mr.. Keen of Polk made a strong
logical talk for the bill, saying that
he knew something about cattle dip
ping, had seen many thousands dip
ped and never saw any OF them hurt
He referred to Lykes Bros. of Tam
pa, cattle raisers in several South
Florida counties as men who are
cattle raisers and who had been op'
posed to dipping but, having seen its
good effects were now dipping all of
their cattle Reports that cattle were
killed blythe dipping he declared un-
founded except perhaps for rare cases
where COW might be injured by a
stumble or fall in passing through

of cattle products like meat and milk
had to expect that their money was
going for good products instead of the

sand dollars was paid for the Hooks

per Creek prairie last week BY the
Standard Growers Exchange, this
being the biggest single item Of busi-
ness recorded in the tomato deal for
the last several days. The Standard
Exchange is taking big part in the
tomato business of this section, and
has invested large amount Of money
in 1t. 1t is handling the Peters crop
OF 1000 acres, the various crops In
which M. b. Hardie Is Interested

acreages. r
Hooks& Hardie had shipped four
carloads OF tomatoes before tho
Standard concern took hold OF the
crop. The Standard people shipped
one carload last week and will have
cars rolling regularly from there this
week. II is claimed that this is one
OF the finest crops in this secticD.

speech in behalf of the bill telling
how as boy, he used to scrape ticks
off the cows in Georgia before he

a year or so ago and found fine
blooded cattle being raised when In
his time 1t had been thought impOS-
sible ever to get rid of the ticks. He
believed that prejudice was the cause
of most of the opposition to cattle
dipping and thought that 1t would
disappear in few years when dem
onstration proved that the tick could
be eradicated.
He told how Pat johnson of his
county has dipped 10000 cattle in the
