Tick eradication effort urged in Oconee County letter
A letter from M. Truy Powers, State Veterinarian, urges citizens to support tick eradication work in Oconee County. An inspector tracked cattle and quarantined nearly 600 head across about 100 premises, with monthly visits and owner guidance. Despite interference, Powers notes Congress has funded eradication, and asks readers to report affected sites and assist inspectors. The piece frames eradication as essential to prevent Texas fever transmission and reduce agricultural losses. Also includes a testimonial for Dr. King's New Life Pills.
