ANOTHER BAD YEAR
FOR CATTLE TICKS
It' the kaiser believes that I
misery loves company, he
should have a brotherly feel
ing1 for the cattle fever tick.
This year has been a bad one
for kaisers and ticks.
This is why it has been a
bad one for the ticks and why
December 1. 1918, should be
a memorable day in the South
ern States:
An area greater than ever
before freed in one year from
Federal quarantine was releas
ed on that day.
The drive of the anti-tick
forces will have sent a broad
wedge of free territory through
the tick lines to the Atlantic
ocean, just as last year a
wedge was driven to the Gulf.
Of the 728,565 square miles
of infested area in 1906, 63
per cent will have been pro
nounced clean.
Farmer- will be free to ship
their cattle to the great mar- j i
kets for competition on their j
own merits with other cattle, ;
and not under the quarantine 1
handicap which requires «ale *
at buyer’s prices for immediate 1
slaughter.
i (
Cattle will increase in value. ^
weight, milk production, ap- ,
pearance, health, productivity,
and length of life.
Farmers in the freed areas 1
will be able to bring to their 1
farms better stock and thus
raise the standard of their
herds. The Southern States
will have taken big strides to
ward their position as a great
cattle-raising country to which
their natural advantages en
title them.

WINK BEFORE
YOUCASHYOUR
WAR STAMPS
The government is making
. record of all persons who
turchase War Savings Stamps
md J the reasons they give
vhen they ask to have their
tamps cashed before maturi
y. These lists will be filed
vith the County Clerk in
inch county to establish a
jermanent record of each in
iividual’s part in the war
vork. Every citizen will be
uiown, not only by the extent
)t‘ his investment but by the
luration of his loan.
This fact probably is not
mown by persons who un
hinkingly cash their stamp?
before payment from the gov
ernment is due. Uncle Sam
spends the money as soon as it
s received. When he is call
'd upon to refund these loans
he is in 'he same predicament
hat one would be if he bor
rowed money from the bank
lo build a house, and after ht
had purchased material and
put carpenter’s to work, tnt
bank would suddenly recal
the loan.
Don’t cash your War Sav
ings Stamps before 1923 un
less you have to. Re surt
that your reason justifies >oui
act. as it will be put in the re
cord at the court house.
