DR.. Crumbine told the butchers that
the annual economic loss to grocers and
butchers in Kansas caused by rats was
in excess of the amount of taxes paid.
This loss is partially through contami-
nation and destruction of food. and par
TALLY because of loss of trade caused
by the prevalence of rats in a shop.
The people of today are beginning to
avoid the shops that are rat infested.
according to the speaker.
Dr.. Crumbine had nothing good to
say about the rodents. They are SUBJ
ject to a form of lepresy not at all dis
similar to human leprosy; they carry
Infection; thirty per cent are infested
with tapeworms. and an average rat
carries eleven fleas. So bat the rat,
says DIR. Crumbine.

roughly in a three games series IN the
Hub, then proceeded TO mop up the Phil

ago had high hopes of n fourth straight

stood the acid test much better than the
Polo Grounders. The pace at which
Stall.ngs has driven the Braves for nearly
two months has in no wise abated New
York after a promising rally of more
than a week, seems to have slipped back
into the loose methods which caused the
