Mr.. john EScalante. a Spanish youth
Of eighteen summers. reached Benton
Saturday of last week-just from the
Mergenthaler Linotype School in New
Orleans. whereIle spent several months,
and something over year in that city.
by way Of introduction. we will say
that John was horn In Madrid. Spain.
hut his parents moved to Belize, Brit
ish Honduras. while he was yet baby.
There he grew up being student
for about five years III grammar
school and three years in college.
His father died when he was about
two years Of age and he was still Of
tender age when his mother passed
away. All this week John has been
hammering away at the Banners limo
type machine. and We'll say thus early
that he impresses us as willing
worker and youth Of more than
average intelligence. We think we are
going to be glad he has come our way.

Ready for Hard Drive
Against Cattle Ticks

Here IL an article that deals with
the subject Of tick eradication that has
been furnished by the United States
Department Of Agriculture, and which
should prove Of interest to many of tho
Banners readers:
March finds preparations we'll under
way for the 1920 campaign against the
cattle fever tick. Prospects for effec-
tive work are 50 encouraging that
Federal officials in charge of tick
eradication expect that ut least ninety
counties In the various tick-infested
states will be made ready for rele,se
from Federal quarantine next Decem-
her LIST. This will mean Il much larger
amount of territory cleaned up than
was placed in the free area last wear.
Only 30 per cent of the total are,
originally quarintined remains under
tick domination. and it should he ma
terially reduced this year. The end Of
the long campaign which began active
ly in 1906 Is well in sight, and with
| continued cooperation from the state
and county governments the Bureau Of
Animal Industry. United States de-
partment of Agriculture. hopes that in
not more than three years the South
will be tick-free.
| Cattle will he sent through the ,lip-
ping watts as early in the season as the
weather and their condition will
permit. Reports from field workers
say that cattle which went into the
winter tfck-free are showing up this
spring In much better condition than
the animals which were subject to
continued attacks Of the Parasites.
Cattle In poor condition may be kept
from the vats until they have chance
ut spring forage. but whenever possible
early dipping will he practiced to kill
the ticks before they have IA chance to
multiply by the thousands or millions.
Despite bad weather dipping was not
discontinued during the winter in Local
lfties where the operation would not
harm the cattle. There were more
than 100000 clippings during January.
and probably u greater number during
February. The winter work. with
early dipping in March. will give the
tick eradicatOrs flying start that Is
expected to he Il big help in making
