HOW CATTLE TICKS
SPREAD TEXAS FEVER.
By Exterminating the Ticks the Dis
ease Can be Stamped Out
i The microscopic parasite which
I cases the disease known as Texas
fever or tick fever of cattle is found
in the blood of affected animals and
Is transferred from one to another
by means of the* fever tick. A re-
■ markable feature of this transaction
I is that the disease-produc'ng paras'te
are transmitted through the eggs
'of the tick that draws the blood,
and not directly by the old tick, as
an engorged tick after dropping from
the host (cow) dies without ever at
taching itself to another animal. But
its offspring, produced by the eggs
laid after it drops off and before it
dies, carry the Infection and inocu
late the first cow they get on.
The length of time elapsing be
tween the exposure of susceptible
cattle to infection by ticks and the
appearance of Texas fever among
them is dependent upon the climate
and the development of the ticks.
Thus, if northern cattle are placed
on pastures, highways, or in pens,
cars, etc., in summer immediately af
ter the premises have been infested
’ with ticks from southern cattle, Tex
as fever may occur in from thirty to
sixty days, as the female ticks which
drop from southern cattle may lay
’ ‘‘ggs ami these must hatch before the
northern animal becomes infested
' with ticks and thereby inoculated
with the disease. After the seed
ticks become attached to the animal
■ the disease will appear in about ten
' days in summer or somewhat longre
period in winter. In fact, the dis
ease may occur before the ticks are
large enough to be seen without a
very careful search.
One objection that, has been ad
vanced against the fact that the cat
tle tick is a carrier of Texas fever
is that cattle are sometimes found
to be suffering with the disease with
out showing tile presence of ticks on
their bodies. This condition in the
case of southern cattle may be ex
plained by the fact that the animal
already had its blood infected with
the parasite-: and under normal con
ditions was resistant to Texas fever’
how< ver, as a result of lowered vi
tality caused by some other diseases,
or by exposure, privation, injury,
rough handling, etc., this resistance
has been reduced and finally over
come, and the parasites at last suc
ceed in producing the disease. On
the other hand, when this disease
Is observed in northern animals, the
young seed ticks may be so small
find so few in number as to be unob
served.
Under certain conditions, as when
living on horses, mules, etc., the
ticks lose their infectiousness, and
when southern cattle not previously
infested with any but these nonin
tious ticks come in contact with in
fectious ticks they are just as sus
ceptible as cattle raised on tick-free
pastures.
Many cattle appear perfectly
healthy and yet are infested with
ticks and have the fever parasite in
their blood. Sometimes the owners
can not understand why such animals
should be regarded as dangerous to
others, and consider it unjust that
they should be subjected to quaran
tine restrictions. The fact is that
such cattle have usually contracted
tile disease in a very mild form at an
early age and have become immune
to further attacks, although still car
rying the parasites tn their blood.
They are dangerous because the fe
ver parasites in their blood may be
transmitted nt any time to suscepti
ble cattle by ticks.
While the disease may lie pro
duced artificially by inoculating a
susceptible animal with the blood ot
an infected one. it is spread naturally
only by the ticks. By exterminating
the ticks, therefore., the disease can
be stamped out. and the quarantine
can then be removed.
The discovery of the part played
by the tick in the spread of Texas
fever was made by the Bureau ot
Animal Industry of the I'nited States
Department of Agriculture in 1891.
and the sarfie principles has since
been found to apply to the transmis
sion of malaria and yellow fever from
man to man by mosquitos, and to
Hie spread of certain other diseases.

mation about the ticks and giving

THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, THURSDAY, JULY 1, 1909
BURNS KILL 6,000 YEARLY
An interesting and instructive I
pamphlet has been issued from the I
office of State Fire Marshal W. S. I
Rogers of Ohio, which gives valua
ble advice as to first aid to the in
jured and burned at fires. It reads
in part:
"More than six thousand persons
are burned to death every year in
the United States.. Many times that
number are badly burned.
"A burn of the first degree hurts
i only the outside of the sin. The
burned place is red, painfully hot
and tender. When it gets well the
outside layer of the skin is made of
scales like those of a fish, but very
much smaller.
"To stop the pain from such a
burn the air must be kept away from
it. Lint or cotton wet from a pint of
water into which a teaspoonful of
baking soda has been stirred should
be put over the burn and held by a
bandage. If there is no soda use
sweet oil or molasses. Many moth
ers use scrapings from a potato If
a burn of this kind covers a large
part of the body it is dangerous, and
a doctor should be sent for.
“While waiting for him an exten
sive burn should be wrapped in cot
ton or covered with flour. A very
, large burn which only makes the
skin fed without blistering may
, cause one to sink and die from
shock and pain. Big burns that are
I not deep often come from gas and
I gasoline explosions in which the
heat only lasts a moment.
I “In burns of the second degree
! there are blisters. Blisters are
, made by water from the blood being
poured out to cool the burn. The
skin over the blister should not be
] taken away, but the water should
be let out of it by a needle prick
at its edge. Clothing should be
taken off with care not to break any
. blisters. The skin over the blister
I is the best covering for the raw spot
under it until new skin grows.
"Burns of this kind should be cov
ered with soft rags or cotton dipped
in carron oil, which can be had at
I any drug store, or by cloth smeared
i with tallow. Over the cloths a band
age, should be put.
“Burns of the third degree take
the life out of all the layers of the
skin, and sometimes out of the flesh
' under them. The skin is made hard
like stiff paper. The dead skin and
flesh is gotten rid of by matter form
ing under It. While these deep
burns are healing the flesh under
them may draw up so that a joint
cannot be moved. They always leave
( bad scars.
"Any deep burn should have the
care of a doctor quickly. Until he
gets there the burned one should bq
1 wrapped in a blanket or put. into a
bathtub of warm water. Many per
sons say a burn should be held near
it flame to draw the fire out of it,
That is foolish.
"Many of the deep burns are suf
fered by persons whose clothing is
ignited. This is because the flame
is kept against the skin so long.
"Children whose clothes take fire
1 are usually burned to death.
1 "Scalds are burns from very hot
’ water. They are not likely to be
s deep, because the water runs off.
1 If the fluid is thicker than water the
! scald is deeper. Burns and scalds
are most dangerous to children if
on tile chest.
1 "Tablespoonfuls of coffee or soup
i heated to 130 degrees can be swal
’ lowed from a spoon without hurt.
but if the spoon touches th? lips it
burns them. Although the skin on
the soles of the feet is the thickest
■ on the body one cannot stand on a
hot plate which he could hold in his
hand without discomfort.’’

NEED NO MORE WAR MEN
An Army Waiting List has Been Es
tablished by Uncle Sam
Uncle Sam at last has the ranks
of his army completely' filled. That
means there are now enrolled in the
national army 78,300 men, who are
ready for service. So fully supplied
with soldiers is the regular army,
that no more recruits are now re
ceived.
This, of course, does not apply to
old soldiers—those who have enlisted
in the army and then allowed their
enlistment periods to expire without
renewal —who are received at any
time, no matter how full the ranks
may be. But unless you have served
already in the national army yov
Cannot now gain admission, as for
the present the ranks are filled.
Those who apply now for enlist
ment are subjected to a preliminary
examination. If they pass this suc
cessfully their names are kept for
future reference. But so many ap
plicants come for enlistment in the
army that Uncle Sam does not con
sider them unless they are the very
best. In brief, so many now apply
for admission that the recruiting au
thorities may take their choice, tak
ing only the very best.
Only a few years ago, about
three years In fact, the war depart
ment was at a loss to now what
could possibly be done to fill up the
ranks of the army, which were sadly
depleted. Only as recently as the
Spanish-American war the entire
standing army of the nation num
bered only 25,000 men. Since that
time the unmber has been more than
doubled, as the report from the war
department for March 27th of the
present year showed 78.300 men en
rolled.
The government has increased the
pay, and now offers a bonus for re
enlistment to every man now in the
service or who will enter when need
ed. The increase in pay had a most
marked effect in swelling the ranks
of the army. It is said now that 80
per cent, of the men in the army
come from the. country districts
which furnish the ranks with men of
fine physique and also of excellent
I character.
