Not illustrated. 1899 Excerpt: ...by others. The next step was to put to practical use the knowledge gained, and experiments have since been conducted on a large scale to find a means of ridding southern cattle of their ticks. Norgaard"' in 1895 and 1896 published a report stating that the ticks could be removed effectually by bathing cattle in vats containing certain solutions. It was difficult to find a bath which injured the tick and not the cattle. 25 per cent glycerine was effective but naturally too expensive.

Pound recommends burning off the grass on infected pastures as a prophylactic measure. Hunt claimed to have found the parasite in young ticks, but this seems scarcely credible, as various trustworthy investigators in the United States have been unable to find them. Hunt, as well as others, failed to produce Texas fever by injecting crushed young ticks hypodermically, it being impossible at present to offer an explanation of the fact.

Since Smith's publication the parasite has also been found affecting cattle in Roumania, South Africa, the Campagna of Rome and in the low country along the Danube.

The disease extends there along the whole coast, pr...
