Uncle Sam Holds Applicants
For Second Series of
Camps in Fall.

Washington, May 29.-The war de-
partment announced today that va
cancies in the officers training camps,
resulting from the withdrawal Of can

cap on the whole force as we'll as or

WAR IS DECLARED ON MICE
All Household Pets Should Be Kept
 Away From Food, Says Govern ment Experts.

Rats and mice destroy millions of dollars worth of food and other prop erty every year in homes or on farms and in business establishments. Many rats harbor the germs of bubonic plague. Trap and kill them, enjoins a United States department of agricul- ture bulletin. Look upon every mouse as an enemy to your property.
 Eradicate reaches and house ants. Keep weevils out of cereals.
 Keep your food where such pests cannot reach 1t.
 Keep household pets away from food.
 Don't let fresh vegetables or fruit wilt or lose their flavor or begin to rot because they are handled careless ly. Keep perishable vegetables in cool. dry, well aired, and. for most vegeta- bles. dark, rather than light places.
 Learn how to store potatoes. cab bages, root crops, fruits and other foods so that they will keep properly for later use. Don't think that any place in the cellar GOT pantry Is good enough to store food.
 Heat, dampness, poor ventilation. bruising or breaking will rapidly make many vegetables rot. ferment or spoil. Warmth and light make vegetables sproud and this lowers their quality.
