Harris County Battle for State Tick Eradication Urged
Harris County Cattlemen urge voters to back Senate Bill 108 the statewide tick eradication law written by Senator Claude B. Hudspeth. They warn county-only action would wreck Harris County cattle sales, arguing eradication must cover from the Oklahoma line to the Gulf and counties must follow the governor's phased zones through 1921.
