3D CHANGE IN SOUTHERN CATTLE
jR QUARANTINE REGULATIONS.
n Arsenical Solution as well as Crude Pe
troleum'to be Employed for Dipping
Cattle for Destruction of Ticks.
I | The Departmont of Agriculture will soon
~ issue new regulations governing the move
mont of cattle from the area under quarantine
on account of Texas or tick fever.
These regulations will become effective
April 1, and will permit the movement or
[ cattle from the quarantined area provided
they are properly dipped under Government
supervision. The new regulations
differ from those hitherto in effect in that
j j they provide for the employment of an ar\
senical dipping fluid as well as for crude
petroleum which has heretofore been used
for the destruction of the ticks that transmit
the disease. Experiments by the Bum
j reau of Animal Industry in dipping cattle
in an arsenical solution indicate that this
method of treatment is sufficiently effective
to be permitted for cattle intended for
interstate movement for purposes other
thun immediats slaughter.
The vats in which such dipping is done
under supervision shall be approved by the
Department, they shall have, at their maximum
working capacity, a length of not
less than 40 feet at the "clip line, a width of
?| 34 to 40 inches, and a minimum depth of
swim of 5yt feet; the sides shall be perpendicular
instead of sloping, the only slope
below the dip line being that at the end
Dfrom which the cattle leave the vat. Thti
slide board shall be 5 to 5% feet long with
a slope of not less than 45 degrees. Vats
that are already installed, which have a
length of not less than 35 feet at the dip
line, otherwise conforming to the above requirements,
except that they may have
sloping sides, may be approved, provided,
? ~ 4-UwAfa woll nnnafnioffld
SOI course, niuu nicy nwo ><
water-tight, and in general good condition.
The vats shall be covered when not in use;
shall be so constructed that water from
rains and overflow can not run into them,
and that the drainage into vats from the
drainage pens shall be cut off when they
are not in use.
In order that the dipping of cattle may
be facilitated, the Department of Agriculture
desires to secure immediately the
names of manufacturers who can furnish
n to cattle owners or others interested a
standard grade of white arsenic which
must be finely powdered and guaranteed
to be at least 99 per cent pure. The DeI
j partment wishes tne manufacturer to place
\ upon packages intended for usie in dipping
a statement guaranteeing that the arsenic
conforms to the standard of purity indicated.
Communications on this subject
* j should be addressed to the Chief of the BuU
reau of Animal Industry, Department of
R Agriculture, Washington, D. C. Copies of
? I the new quarantine regulations when ismm
sued may be obtained on application to the
Bureau.
* The territory under quarantine for Texas
fever embraces the whole States of Louisiana,
Alabama, and Florida, and parts of
California, Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas,
Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia,
U South Carolina, North Carolina, and VirR
ginia. The area under quarantine has been
J 1 reduced by more than 80,000 square miles
M within the last three years as a result of
H the campaign being waged by the Federal
and State authorities for the extermination
0Q of the ticks, and as this work progresses
M the quarantine will be removed from addiM
tional territory.

estons from the Cotton Crop of 1909- .
The season of 1909, while one of the worst I
e have ever known for the cotton crop in I
11 but the Atlantic States, taught some 1
iluable lessons:
First. It demonstrated that a crop of
Jtton, under heavy boll weevil infestaon,
could be made after July 1st, provided
le farmers pick up the punctured squares
nH wnrlr thA flpilrl Intenftivfilv. In fact.
lere were very few bolls on the cotton
[ants in Louisiana and Southwest Mis3isippi
on July 1st. 1909. The weather then
ecame dry and warm, and such as fol>wed
the instructions of the Government
demonstration Work made a fair crop of
>tton, both on the alluvial bottoms and on
le hill lands, and the planters who failed
> follow such instructions made very little,
ouisiana has always had years of a short
)tton crop, due to adverse weather conitions.
The crop of 1905, though practiclly
unaffected by the weevil, was only
11,738 bales, which is less than half the 1
roduct of 1904. Owing to loss of labor c
nd fear of the boll weevil, about thirty
ercent. less than normal acreage was 1
lanted to cotton in 1909 and when prac- j
cally no cotton was made up to July 1st,
uch was the alarm that a large area of {
Dtton was plowed up and planted to other
cops. The amount plowed up or abanoned
is estimated by good judges at forty I
er cent. But allow that It was twenty
er cent., deducting from the probable crop 1
l such a season, to wit, 511,738 bales, the ]
tiirty per cent not planted and the twen- ,
v per cent, plowed up or abandoned, and 1
be crop of Louisiana, without allowing (
nything for weevil damage, should have
een 286,754 bales. As far as can be ascertained
the crop was about 270,000 bales, i
'his clearly proves that the fright is more
amaging than the weevil. (
The second item emphasized by the ex- ,
erlence of 1909 is the Importance of pick- 1
tig up and burning the punctured squares. I
'here had never had Deen any question
iut picking up the squares in the fore part
if tne season woula check the weevils, \
mt it was proven in 1909 that it was effective
after the field was fully infested if rap- i
i cultivation was continued. * ,
The third item of value demonstrated
>y the season of 1009 is the importance of
laving the land well drained so the crop
an be worked as soon as the rain ceases.
Jnder boll weevil conditions the heavy
lack land and the poorly drained fields
hould be devoted to other crops, because
atensive working of the crop is a necesity.
There must be no weeds and no
rrass in the crop.
Fourth. The past season has added its
onclusive testimony in favor of the plan
or making cotton under boll weevil infes- <
ation which plan, approved by the United
itates Department of Agriculture, is as '
ollows:
1. The destruction of the weevil in the
all by burning all rubbish and material in
nd about the field which might serve for i
ibternating quarters of the weevils, and
reeking (plowing) the soil as deep as con- j
itions wjll allow. * ,
2. The shallow winter cultivation of the 1
oil if no cover crop is used.
3. Delaying the planting till the soil and
emperature are warm enough to make it
afe. j
I. The planting of early-maturing vaieties
of cotton. i
6. The use of fertilizers.
6. Leaving more space between the
ow8, and on ordinary uplands having a
xeater distance between the plants in the ,
ow than is usually allowed.
7. The usftof the section harrow before
,nd after planting and on the young cotDn.
8. Intensive shallow cultivation.
9. Agitation of the stalks by means of
rush attached to the cultivator.
10. Picking up and burning the squares
bat fall under weevil conditions, especlalp
during the first thirty or forty days of
ifestation.
II. Controlling the growth of the plant
I excessive by deep and close cultivation
rhile the plant is young.
12. Selecting the seed.
13. The rotation of crops and the use of
3gumes.
It will be noted that the system, as outned,
has a two-fold object: (1) To reduce
he number of weevils and (2) to aid early
naturicy. The foregoing methods may
equire modification to suit the soil and
limate. Where there is too much food
nd a surplus of moisture available for
otton in any soil, common sense dictates '
bat these conditions should not be inreased
by deep fall breakings. We thereffnllnTrinor
