THE SOUTH MUST FEED HERSELF; MUST KILL OUT THE CATTLE TICK ? ? wy>|| More Live Stock Is Profitable; Hck Cause Of 800,000.000 Dollar Los#; Fertility Of Soil Is The Greatest Asset . r. $800,000,000 SPENT FOR FOOD BY PROF.V. G. HOLDGN Director of the I. H. C. Agricultural Ext?nfOon Depart meeL The loss to the South due to the Texas fevctr tick would build anotl* er Panama Canal, pay cash for it. aud have several million dollars left over. This is in accordance to da ta furnished by the U- S. Bureau of Animal Industry. There are about 15,000,000 head of cattle below the quarantine line. Government fig urea show that the complete eradi cation of the tick would Increase their value more than $122.00.000. Added weight canned by the ab sence of the tick would add another $54,000,000^ The death toll di*> directly and Indirectly to the cattle tick amounts yearly to 34,000.000. The comparlnon In milk flow show* a profit off tick-free rattle. Iv^ther H valuable and hides are Increasing in price. Buyers tell us that hide* from tleky ratlin are worth on an average of about 3 cents a pound less than other hide*. The loss from hides amount to the amazing sum <*f $18,000,000. The Iof** from hides alone Ih mor'1 than e nough to free tho South of the cattle tick. Tho neglect of the most Im portant phase of 'farming ? live stock growing ? Icr costing th~ South untold wealth and development .ev ery year. Pesta have held counties back ? kept them from developing ? but I know of no pest that could be as easily and permanently orad<~itei1 that hai? effected any section as th* cattle tick has the South. It has been the millstone that has every thing but drowned us. An earth quake. fire or great battle destroy ing $300,000,000 worth of proper ty would soon be history with a ter rible significance yet this trem-em dous leakage goes on continuously and wo heed It not. It is time w should eradicate the tick. The obli gation rests on the 'business men and farmers to build dipping vat* and free the country of this costly pest. This will be one of the best Invest ments that can porstbly he made. The first great lesson that the his tory of agricultural countries t^ach ee us is that no state will ever be come permanently prosprrous un-tll I* feeds iUrelf. The South will never feed herself until the Texas fever tick Is gone. The three main requirements of BORAX A FLY PREVENTIVE IS SUGGESTED Etch eprlng when the anti-fly campaigns start up the State Board dtf Health 1* repeatedly called on to recommend some ohemloal treatment that wlU destroy fly larvae In ma nure. To find that oihemleal which will deitroy the fly economically and at the Mima time preserve the fer tilising value of the tnenure appeara to be a somewhat baffflng queatton to scientists but one they are hope ful of wiving. In fa<* through a long pro?e?* of e*pe rim entation with different chemicals, the Unit ed States Department of Agricul ture hel levee that It haw found what may be reHed on a* an economical practical and fartly ffoctire larvl clde. It la ordinary borax. The Bulletin of the United States Department of Mtrlcnktiire ^p?*k1ng of the avoraJbto results ob'alned by the use of borax, says: "It pos sesses a* marttod tovlcldat sotlon and appears to sorert no permanent in jury on <*e fertilising value ?! man are food, clothing acd Shtfttr* / and the first and moat important / these Is food.

Put t?he wMl never be the a?rl cultu ral country she ought to be and can be until she produces at hotoe the food and feed for her peapf^ . and her livestock. She should ralw? what she feeds and feed what alM raises. The board b411 of the cotton producing ?tates amounts to over $5*00.000,000 annually. This mm { ey goes to northern food producers f ?making the farmers of the corn hell states prosperous- ? boUdlng | good roads, schools, churches sad making oilier Improvements In ibo-^e sections. This arnosst of money kept at home would the same thing for the Southern states. A study of methods followed fry farmers in other ?ectlonr show that they have plans that are not ex pensive. but on the other htnd, are slraple and can be used by anyone. Thfrtr plan is this: Every farmer lis- a garden that produces vege table* for home consuirnJtfdn. be keeps from a 100 to 200 Industrious hens that produce eggs and meat for tho f am fly use and some to self, with which money groceries and ottr er necessities are bought. E?erj man raise, his own pork and k?mr cews enough to produce enough mflk and butter ifor home use. The raising of cattle has a busi ness ring about It. Livestock is tl*o basis of permanent agriculture. The fertility of the soil hi our rrrW est asset, and soil fertility can nerrer be maintained without the use of j livestock. This has been proven over and over again "by expertm?"*itt. If the South were free of the cattle t?ck It would be a grat livpsftocV country. She has the clmate, th? abundant wat^r supply, and can raise a gr^at variety of feeds.
