WHAT WE ARE PAYING
FOR THE PRIVILEGED
' FEEDING CATTLE TICK
Ad Interesting Communication from

Stock Association.

I:
The economic aspect of the tick
problem is unquestionably of the
rgreatest practicle interest since the
.fundamental importance of all other
! V
questions which surround it depend
upon the actual money value involL
ved. Therefore study the following
statistics of the financial loss sustained
by the South as a direct result
of the cattle tick.
' 1st. All cattle from the tick infested
area sold in the Southern pens
of the Norfolk stock yards bring on
an average from 1 to 2 cents per I
R . pound less than the general market
r price for the same grade of cattle? .
Ijp this wil amount to a cut in price of
W $6.00 to $12.00 per head on a 600 ,
F% l?ound animal.
2nd. The shrinkage in milk pro- j
W duction of cows harboring the cat*
*Ttie tick.
/$rd. Loss to Southern purchasers
k^^f No-them pure bred or grade cat- (
for foundation stock which
per cent of Nor
aroa.^| B hides are
fl^H^^Jpality buMn^But in price
H^HP^mt of damage by ticks.
5th. Loss of native cattle.
6th. Loss by reason of young stock
n?ver developing to be what their
"blood and breeding entitles them to
be, if infested with ticks.
Sum total annual loss to the tick
infested a ea amounts to $40,000,000
,
?South Carolina's annual 'oss is
over $900.000?Chesterfield county's
-share is considerable.
The government experts iell us
that the boll weevil is sure to he
here within the next six years, when
it will be impossible to make a fuil
cotton crop.
Why not get busy now preparing
for his coming. Get rid of the cattle
tick?put cattle raising on a business
basis. Now is the oportune
time. Accept the proposition ottered
by Clem son College through their ,
representative, ui. m. u. ?<
the Chesterfield County Live Stock
Association at a meeting held ar Cheraw
last Saturday.
Clemson College asks the county to
\ appropriate S-J20.00 and the College
will give an equal amount; ibis supplemented
by Federal aid, will enable
cooperation and systematic tie!; eradication
to be carried on elTccmeiv in
lite county this year.
A committee was appointed to raise
the above amount and we earnestly
solicit the aid cf every enterprising
and progressive citizen in our count'
iu behalf of this enterprising and
"profitable cause.
We are progressing, we are going
to have a successful county fair this j
vaar o?.fi if wp will add tick crad- i
ication owo mighty strides will bej
made in the march of progress, and
Chesterfield county will more nearer

rightfully belongs.

Protection.
"Women who ore alone in a flat all
day take many precautions to insure
safety," a gas collector said. "One,
way that I learned the other day made
me feel rather foolish. When I went
into the kitchen to read the meter the
mistress of the fiat stepped to the
telephone and said:
"'It's all right, Central. It's only
Itie gas man.
"Of course, she was under no obligations
to explain that cryptic allusion
to myself, but she did it voluntarily.
" 'Every time the doorbell rings
when I am hero alcne,' she said, 'I
take the receiver off the hook and
leave the telephone open before I go
to the door, so that if T should have
occasion to poream they could hear me
at headquarters and send somebody to
my assistance.'
"To utilize the telephone company
is a private detective bureau struck
me as nervy, but I have since learned
that a lot of lone women resort to
that plan with satisfaction to all co
:erned."
