\ WONDERFUL COLLECTION
OF RAT TRAPS

A writer in the current issue OF
Farm and Ffreside tells about the
Importance of killing rats, which, as
everybody knows, are carriers and
diatributors OF germs injurious to
human beings. He tells about visit
ing United States government bu-
reau chiefs office in Washington in
which is stored a great collection of
rat traps made by various inventors.
Following Is an extract:
There were rat traps of wire, OF
wood. of glass of copper, of tin; rat
traps that looked like self binders,
rat traps that looked like telescopes.
rat traps that looked like diving
bells, and one that looked like a cat
apult such as the ancients used to
batter down the walls Of the besieg-
ed city. The biggest rat trap there
could easily have been used to catch
a baby elephant, and the smallest
could almost have been carried
around in a thimble. The biggest
one, which was the catapult affair
wound up with key and was oper-
ated by huge spring. The theory
on which 1t operated was that when
a rat touched off the trigger he turn
the thing loose, and a big swinging
cast iron arm landed on his head,
killed him instantly and incidental
ly pitched hiT. into the middle of
next week. The experts in charge
said that there was only one trou.
BILE with this trap, and that vas that
its efficacy depended upon securing
the entire cooperation of the rat.
A rat endowed with the intellect,
say OF Herbert Spencer could prob
ably have succeeded by diligent ap-
ptcation In getting himself killed by

According to reports Of the utah
state land board there Is dawning
in Utah an era OF farming improve
ment work and agricultural progress
such Az the state has never before
seen. II ia reported that during the
last 1s months the land board has
invested more than 100000 in state
money. and more than half of this
amount has been placed in loans to
farmers on improved farm lands.
The money loaned by the board has
not been used by the farmers TO
defray debts either according 10
Chairman w. d. Candland, but ev'
cry cent has been expended to make
improvements and increase the pro-
ductivity of the farms.
In a period of 10 years, prior to
IS months ago, there was totai
of 500 loan applications filed accord
ing to the boards figures, while in
the last year aud half alone there
have been 600 applications present
ed to the board. There are still on
hand applications for loans aggrega-
ting 100000. There is at present
only $4,000 available for these loans
and It is anticipated by the board
that this will have been used before
any additional funds come in.
