United .States bureau of anltn.il Industry. I Dr. H. A. Jtnmsny, chief of the government's tlok-eradlcntion divi sion, believes the Crisp act will go 'far In preserving the tick-free area 'won after long und difficult strug 1 gleH. The pest has been driven froin70 counties, leaving but 225 ! counties still quarantined . because of Its presence. Much of (he nrei include!- the swamp lands of the ' south. Hoeuilse of the ulmosl frt luccesslble nature of the- region and the fact that unlimited numbers oi' cattle run through It virtually with out restraint, Ir. Ramsay, believes the most difficult part of.the battle has Just begun. j ''Although, excellent progress has.! 'been made thus far," he says, "the culmination of efforts to eradicate the cuttle tick from the south Is expected to require the closest kin I of co-operation among county, state and federal officials, as well OA ample funds nnd the active sup port of cattle owners." 1 An official appraisal of tho dam ago ticks Inflict on the cuttle In dustry of the 225 counties Infeslej shows an annual average loss of $f3.:i77 for each county. The cut rent cost of tick eradication Is plac ed at $20,000, showing, !r. Itam- ,L, hflf If tritifft fftA Add Tit half times as much to tolerate ticks J' at lo eradicate them.
