Dipping Does Not Reduce Milk Yields.
' Washington, July 3:?"Dipping
cows to kill fever ticks actually increases
milk yields," says the United
States Department of Agriculture
in a statement issued today.
"This is proved in actual experiment
and in the results obtained in thousands
of dairy herds the owners of
which are thorough believers in tick
eradication by the dipping-vat method.
Careful records prove that
lightly infested cows produce 18.0
per cent less milk than free cows,
while cows heavily infested produce
on an average 42.4 less milk than
similar cows freed from ticKs. This
was established by records of yields
kept over considerable periods for
ticky herds before they are dipped
and for the same herds after they
are dipped.
"A herd of 20 lightly ticked cows
produced 29 quarts less milk per day,
or a loss of 5,800 quarts in 200 days'
milking, than 20 tick-free cows of
the same kind. Twenty heavily ticked
cows produced G7 quarts per day
less.or a loss of 13,400 quarts in 200
days' milking,than 20 tick-free cows
of a similar breed. The monetary
gain from dipping of the lightly infested
herd would have been $280 a
year; from the heavily ticked herd a
dipping would have given him increased
profits of $660 a year.
"Here is an actual record from a
dairy herd: A dairyman in heavily
infested territory dipped his cattle.
One week after dipping, his herd of
42 cows gave 10 gallons of milk
more?an increase of 16.6 per cent
from the start. The milk sold for 35
cents a gallon,and he got $3.50 more
per day from his herd from one dipping.
He had begun to feed the
cows instead of the ticks.
"Those who assert that dipping
diminishes milk flow judge entirely
from the milk production for 2 or 3
days immediately following the trip
to the vat. It is natural that for 2
or 3 days after a milch animal has
been driven a few miles and gone
through the excitement of dipping,
her milk flow will temporarily fall
off slightly. The actual ngures snowthat
for 2 or 3 days there may be a
reduction of an average of 10.G per
cent er about 0.8 of a quart for an
8 quart cow. In 3 to 5 days the
temporary failing off disappears and
if the dairyman would keep records
Vver any long period he would find
that getting rid of ticks was increasing
his actual milk production from
48 to 42 per cent.
"That dipping cows to get rid of
cattle ticks must increase milk flow
can readily be reasoned out by ararone
who will approach the subj^ya
with an open mind and not let his
prejudices fight his pocketbook.
^ Cows can make milk only from
^ v 1 1 tViof f Ka mnrA
^ DIOOU. U lUlluns kuav UK mviv
- "* blood the ticks suck out from them
the less material the cows will
to turn into milk have. When
it is realized that the ticks on a
heavily infested animal consume
as much as 200 pounds of blood a
year, it can bo seen that a heavily
infested cow will lose by the tick
route a large and important amount
of milk-making' material. When it
is realized that the cow can make
blood to supply her milk glands cnly
from the feed she consumes, it can
be seen that the tick by sucking
blood is wasting a lot of good feed
that ought to be going, to icrease
milk production.
"It is as unreasonable to estimate
nf Hinnintr nn a cow's vield
W1V I.MVVV V*. v?.rr.?n ?
from the milk she gives for two
day9 after she has been dipped as it
would be for a purchaser of a cow
to expect that cow to give her full
milk, record the first day after she
had been driven to a new farm and
placed in strange quarters. No
sensible dairyman would send back
a cow because she did not live up to
the guaranteed record for a day or
two after she had been shipped to
Ilia farm. All the department asks
of anyone is to use fair records. Exr>orionf?p
with millions of cattle dip
??
ped proved conclusively that dipping
increases materially and in no way
diminishes the years milk yield, or
injures the cattle."

when, as a matter of fact, real and | tr

cause they haven't enough iron in their j gi

they generally commence doctoring for ]

by lack of iron in the blood. This uu

patient suffers untold agony. If you P,

yourself to make the following test: j on
