DRIVING RATS AWAY WITHOUT
POISON.

We know of three methods: First,
the old French plan: This IS followed,
chiefly in PARIS. by men who make it
special business. They take deep tub.
with water on the bottom and q little
elevation in the middle like an island,
on which is only place tor just one
rat to sit. This trap is covered and
has large balance valve. opening down.
ward. On the middle OF this valve a
piece of fried pork or cheese Is placed.
and when the rat walks on it to get
the cheese the valve goes down, drops
the rat into the water and moves back
in position. A road is made from the
rst-hole to tho top of the tub by means
OF pieces OF board rubbed with cheese,
so as to make the walk more attractive
Tor the rats. In the course of the night,
some ten. twenty or even more rats may
60 down, and ifthe island was not there
they would be found most all aliveIn tho
morning. quietly swimming around but
the provision of the little island saves
the trouble of killing them, because
their egotistic instinct OF preservation
causes them to fight for the exclusive
possession of the island. of which in the
morning, the strongest rat is found in
possession, all the others being killed
and drowned around him. Second, the
New York plan invented by one of the
Friends: The floor near the rat-hole is
covered with a thin layer of most
potassa. When the rats walk on
this it makes their feet sorc these they
lick with their tongues. which makes
their mouths sore, and the resul: is that
hey shun the locality, not alone, but
appear to tell all the rats in the neigh
3orhood about it, and eventually the
house is entirely abandoned by them.
the houses around are
ul of rats. Third, the Dutch method:
This is said to be used successfully in
Holland. We have. however. never
ried it. A number OF rats left to them
elves in very large trap or cage, with
10 food whatever. Their craving hun
;er will cause them to fight. and the
weakest will be eaten by the strongest.
Itter short time the fight is renewed
nd the next weakest is the victim, and
0 1t goes on till one strong rat is left.
'hen this one has eaten the last remains
the other it is set loose. The animal
as now acquired such taste for rat
esh that he IS the terror of all ratdom,
Ding about seeking what rats he may
'vour. In an Incredibly short time the
'emises are abandoned by all other
is. which will not come back before
g can nibal rat has left or died.-lEx.
