Camden, & C. r BEWARE OF TICKS THI8 YEAR The department of agriculture announces that Rocky mountain spotted fever has appeared In North Carolina, Maryland and Virginia. Dr. F. C. Bishop of the department, warned the people in the three states to beware of wood or dog ticks, which he anya are uaually infected. Deapite the cold winter, ticka are unuaually abundant iu the Kaat this year. As many aa a hundred have been picked off a dog at the end of a day in the woods. They attack also horses, cattle, larger wild, animals and man. The young ticka get their first nourishment from meadow and pine mice and disappear when underbrush that protects mice Is " removed. Thfks are most numerous in the early summer. Usually they practically disappear by the first of August. Dr. Bishop recommends confining dogs in yardH during the tick season and of examining them frequently. Every tick, he says, should be pulled off the dog with forceps and dropped into a can of kerqpeae. Ticks that have not fed on a dog for a-few hours I are Immediately dangerous. As the disease can be contracted from crushed ticks, through cuts or scratches, it is a safety measure to wash the hands thoroughly after touching ticks. Derris powder may be scattered lightly over most heavily infested dogs. This kills any ticks on the dog and tends to repel others. If it is necessary to go into tick infested places it is advisable to wear high-top shoes over trousers and to examine the body and head at least twice a day. One of the favorite places of attachment Is in the hair at the base of the head. Ticks are not likely to transmit the disease unless they remain attached for at least six hours.
