ENGLAND TO WAR ON RATS
PLAN OF SOCIETY FOR DE-
sTRUCTIoN OF VERMIN.
Club Killing the Greatest Number
Of Rodents in a Year Will Re-
ceive a Prize.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, July 23-England is to begin
war on its $4,000. 600 rats October 1.
On that date the Society for the Destruc-
ton of Vermin, of which Sir James Crich-
ton-Browne is president will initiate COM
petitions among all the existing sparrow
and rat clubs. which they hope to Or
ganize into one body.
IAN the clubs with a membership of
twenty will be eligible for the compe-
titions." an official Of the society told
a reporter this week. THE club which
kills the greatest number of rats in
twelve months will receive a prize of ten
guineas, and there will be two other
prizes of five and three guineas. In ad-
dition. there will be offered five prizes
of one guinea each to individuals who can
prove big bags No prize will be given
to an individual who has destroyed fewer
than 300 rats. The entrance fee for clubs
will be ten shillings.
For the county clubs there will be
offered five prizes of ten guineas and ten
prizes of five guineas each for the fifteen
clubs providing the largest bag. We
estimate the champion club should show
q bag of 10000 rats.
In our Investigations we have taken
the lowest possible basis We estimate
that there are fifty-six millions of acres
under cultivation in the British Isles.
and, merely for the sake of calculations
we put one rat on each acre. Each rat
can do one pounds worth of damage
per annum.
I'm May next the society will hold an
exhibition in which will be shown not
only the history of the war on rats. which
dates back to ancient Egyptian and
Etruscan times. but the most modern
methods Of exterminating these and other
pests"

The main route from Bunder Abbas to

From Regain another caravan route
branches off to Herman. Regan is also
on the line from Chahbar to Nasratabad,
and is on the direct road from Gwadur
to Seitan.
Regain is in ruins. and the caravans
have to draw their supplies from the ad-
jacent villages. The Afghans are in pos
session of Persian territory hundreds of
miles from the Afghans frontier. and
there are no forces in Persia capable of
driving them out.
There is little reasonable doubt that
these Afghans belong to parties of gun
check from the British warshio Proser-
pine at Jask. It would be a convenient
center from which to protect armed car
avans from the Mekrah coast bound for
the Afghan frontier, The episode illus
trates the extent to which the arms traf
fic has grown. and it indicates also the
little fear to which the gun runners hold
the Ameer of Afghanistan.
No matter what steps the Persian gov
eminent may desire to take, 1t has not
the power to put them into execution.
The Persian soldier is the last man in
the world to attempt to try conclusions
with an Afghan.
There will be no desire on the part of
Great Britain to press unduly the gov
eminent of the shah. although Regain is
within her sphere of influence. and covers
an important trade route. But there are
ugly possibilities in such situation. and
1t is fortunate occurrence that the Brit
ish force at Robat is strong enough to
meet any ordinary eventualities
