"Whether this impression owes Its
origin to anita gonism to tick eradica-

of incomplete understanding of the

of the proper methods of handling

There is absolutely nothing 10 the

have shown a falling of in the milk
supply after dipping, the reason for
the depreciation can be Invariably
ascribed to improper handling and
