An Object Lesson 



IN 



Tick Eradication 



TTn niaBtratioru given below, and the accompanying particulars, are taken from on Officiei pablication of the United StstM 



Department of Agriculture, Bulletin No. 498. 



It hu been 

 calculated that licks may, 

 IB the course ol a year, 

 deprive an animal of 

 10^ gailont of bloo<L 

 Some ticks absorb as 

 ir.uch as 2 c.c o{ 



blood each. 



TICK INFESTED: BEFORE DIPPING, Augusi 12ih, 1911. 

 WEIGHT 730 POUNDS. 



A case is on 



record of a horse which 

 died from anaemia re- 

 sulting from gross tick 

 infestation, and from 

 which no less than 

 ^ lbs. of ticks were 

 collected. 



THE SAME BEAST TICK FREE: 2 MONTHS AFTER DIPPING, 

 October 12th, 1911. WEIGHT 1015 POUNDS. 



The above illustrations afford an example of thp benefits afforded by Tick Eradication. The animal shown, when infested with tick?, weighed only 

 730 pounds on 12th August. 191 1. On this date the beast was completely freed from Ticks by dipping. Two months later (12th October), its weight 

 ^d increased to 1015 pounds, the feed in the meantime remaining the same as before. The total gain afl'*r being freed from ticks was thus 



283 pounds in 2 months, or a daily average gain of 4f pounds.
