George Steel, in Letter to Inspector
 Grady Hand, Makes Law Clear
 as Applying to Arkansas.
 February 16, 1921. MT. Grady Hand, County Tick Eradi- cator, Mena, Ark.
 Dear MT. Hand:-I have your letter of recent date, asking for an opinion from this office with reference to tick eradication work in your county, and beg to advise that under the law, it is necessary that all cattle should be systematically dipped every fourteen days, unless otherwise authorized by the agent in charge.
 You are further advised that it is my opinion that it would be no de fense if no dipping vats exist in the county 1t is the intention of this law for every community to provide itself with dipping vats, and that the Unit ed States government, the state of Arkansas, and the county in which the work is being conducted to furnish authorized agents to supervise the work, test the vats, and also furnish the necessary dip.
 l trust, however, that the people of your county will cooperate with you and that 1t would be much more con- venient, for necessary dipping vats to be constructed in each locality, and thereby save those who own or have cattle in their charge, the trouble of driving said cattle unnecessary dis tances.
 Yours very truly,
 Geo, R. Steel, Pros. Atty. Adv. o-19.
