Dubois that he any longer had any

F.se.t A.l..l ON the Farm.

The fattest animal on the farm usu-
ally is the rat, and it returns no profit.
But some farmers do not seem serious
ly to object to keeping and feeding the
destructive pest. The cost of feeding
the farm rats of this country is enor-
nous. Say that it will average 50
cents a year for each farm, and that
is absurtily conservative. But taking
that as an average, and the annual
cost is over $2.OOO,OOO. If the farmers
of the country should contribute $2,-
OC0, 900 to be burned up. they would be
charged with idiocy. But the destruc-
tion of grain and other things by rats
is usually opposed only by few cats.
and the work of destruction is allowed
to go on, for cats can not clear a prem
ises of rats, though they will, Of
course, hold them somewhat in check.
IL no systematic effort is made to rid
the farm buildings entirely of these
rodents, everything that is practically
possible should be done to protect
grain from their ravages.
Bins and cribs should be protected,
bins with tin lining and cribs by nail
ing a strip of tin around the bottom
edge, having it extended three of four
inches out from the crib. A crib that
it thus timed and built far enough
from the ground to prevent the raj
from gnawing through the bottom is
rat proof.
BY all odds, however. the best treat
ment of the rat plague is the ferret
Rats will not remain where ferrets are,
at least live rats will not. A single
ferret will clean a barn of rats in
short order. This natural enemy will
go wherever the rat will or can go.
and there is only one result If the two

about IS pair, and we presume that

rats on the farm, a pair will do hum

Maryland Oyatermen Are SuAerln9
This Season Because OF Their
Recklessness.

The oystermen of Maryland are now
fulness of former years and are con-
planning of a gloomy outlook for the
present season. A moderately poor
season was expected by many. but that
which has developed has been a surprise
and disappointment. The crop will be
short fully one-third and this in the
face of rapidly growing demand by
the western trade. 1t is a curious fact
that Notwithstanding the impressive
evidence of the foolish waste of other
years, the oystermen are still violating
81 laws for the preservation of the in
dustry. Scores of gatherers have al
ready been arrested and fined. but this
appears to be no deterrent and the
So. liation of the beds goes on. Indeed.
tl,e only men who are actually making
money this season are those who have
appreciated the course of events and
are planting and caring for private
beds.
One of the wisest protective measures
tina, was passed by the Maryland legis-
lature was the so-called Gull law, which
made ii a misdemeanor for the skipper
of On oyster craft to have more thar
five per cent. of his load of oysters less
than 2Is inches in length. The penalty
is 800. Many of the oystermen who
were loudest in their support of this
law are now kept busy explaining to
the inspectors why they are carrying
more than the regulation five per cent.
Of culls. 1t is astonishing that the men
who live by this great industry and who
should be fully aware of the ruin that
they are bringing to it still persist in
their unlawful ways.-Buffalo Express.
