GET RID OF MICE AND RATS.
How One Woman Succeeded with Use
of Arsenic.

Last year the rats got away with
200 young chickens before it occurred
to me to try the remedy I had always
found efficient for mice. / had always
hated to try poison in the house as I
considered the odor of dead mice al
most as bad as the ravages of live
ones. Some one told me, writes this
correspondent of Farm and Home, that
if I used arsenic to poison them there
would be no bad odor if any died in
the walls, as arsenic was a sort of pre-
sentative or embalmer.
/ first set dishes of cornmeal around
their runways and holes and after
they got to eating it well I put some
more in in which vas mixed a little
arsenic. 1t did the work and we saw
or heard no more mice for over a
year. | found but two dead ones and
never "smelled a smell" When rats
became so numerous and bold | fed
them first with the dry meal and when
they got to cleaning that up I mixed
in the arsenic. That was the last we
saw of rats for six months or more,
and they have never been very numer-
u since. The cost is practically
nothing as I have used less than half
of five cents worth of arsenic.
