Stock Raisers Win Battle Against Pestiferous Tick in Oklahoma
The United States Department of Agriculture reports progressive stock raisers in Oklahoma are winning the cattle fever tick battle through cooperative dipping efforts. Quarantine releases are expected for 22 counties by December 1, 1918, with tens of millions of dip records in May and June. The Oklahoma State Council of Defense backs the eradication as a food conservation measure, urging counties to support federal and state agents. Benefits include lifted shipment restrictions, higher cattle values, faster calf growth, and better milk yields, with a notable Mississippi example of state-wide eradication aiding future prosperity. Louisiana and Mississippi show rapid dipping increases and law implementation, signaling a southern-wide shift toward eradication and brighter cattle industry prospects.
