HOW TO GET RID OF RATS.
Ohio Board of Health Recommends
Use of Poison.

The rat" is severely condemned as
disease breeder by r. H. Creel, passed
assistant surgeon Of the United States
public health service. in a public health
report issued by the service "Of all
the parasites that have their being in
and around the habitation of man the
rat has less to justify its existence
than any other reads the report.
In nearly every city the number Of
rats is something in excess of the
human population, while in the rural
district the number of rats will easily
figure three or four times the number
of people
The Ohio state board of health in a
recent report asserts that the cost Of
maintaining each rat in the United
States is about one half cent per day,
Or $1S5 per head per year The board
recommends rat poison as an effective
method of exterminating rats.
