State Crop Pest Commission of 



the tune of one billion dollars per year — all this and much more, 

 only — provided, we exterminate the cattle tick. 



To maintain our cotton industry in its supremacy is but the 

 soundest statesmanship. To keep the cotton crop at its suprem- 

 acy in the Southern United States is statesmanship equally re- 

 nowned. To maintain and ever increase our cotton exports 

 should be our government's -never-failing policy. Such aim will

 f( reign people, for there is connected with it no loss — all is gain. 



Eradicate the cattle tick!
