SWITCHING TRADE TO THE L. s.
France Will Look to America After
the War.
rageOuS.

By United Press
PARIS, Aug. 10 Thy maiD-France
is preparing in concrete way to
switch her pre-war German trade to
America.
Under the authorization of the
French government, the largest pub
licity and advertising corporation in
Europe will try to interest Ameri-
can manufacturers in the great after
the-war market of France. One of
the heads of this organization told
the United Press that American pro-
ducers will be asked to investigate
French markets of every description.
France is now looking forward"
he declared. "Frenchmen realize that
the country must have a big market
Immediately after the war where they
can begin to stock up their more or
less depleted stores. There will be
no tendency to trade again with Ger
many. The French market, then, to a
large degree will be the United States.
American manufacturers hitherto have
shown no great tendency to drum up
trade in France. They took what came
their way and let it go at that. Now
we are going to try and interest them.
Frances forty million people, sta
tistics show, have a purchasing pow
er of sixty millions. That argument
surely ought to appeal to the Ameri-
cans"
A bureau to be established in New
York will systematically distribute
and will not only give full
reports on economic conditions in
France but organize the distribution
of American goods.

clear that cleaning up included the
removal of President Vinson, who has

them. But a new board met early last
July, and apparently under pressure
seven professors were dismissed, the
most noted being John A. Lomax. A
picturesque incident was a students

"fooling with the board" for its like

direct method of bringing higher ed

Behind the British Lines in France,
Nov. 5.-(Correspondence of The
Associated Press -There is a GER
tain brave battalion in the British
army which is known throughout
the length and breadth of the line
as "The Ferrets." The nickname was
given them first of all because of
! their success in dealing with the rat
nuisance in their section of the line,
and the soldier who had most to do
with combating the rats is known
from Dunkirk to st. Quentin as 20.
c. Rats, the initials being the reg
ular British abbreviation for officer
commanding"
The rats were, probably worse in
this battalion's section OF the line
last winter than anywhere else in
Flanders, and many were the devices
tried against the little enemy. Traps
Of all kinds were tried. Rat devour-
ing dogs were brought up, but in
vain. A cat with a tremendous repu-
tation in the French villages was
purchased and did we'll at first, kill
ing four rats in twenty-four hours
and intimidating many others.
Thereupon the battalion made much
of the victorious animal, to its an
doing, for 1t adapted itself as IL by
instinct to the life OF a regimentaI
pet, that is. il ate as much as 1t
could Of the mems rations, took the
warmest corner available. and quit
work.
Bring Back Fsrrets.
Finally the battalion stan held a
war council, and dispatched one Of
its number to London to bring back
three or four good ferrets.
t.. n. a
an object of great interest Private
Thomas Merryfield emerged from OBJ
security and was assigned to take
charge of the newcomers From that
day forward he was known to the
army as o. G. Rats. He took his
duties seriously, and Immediately
went into action against the little
enemy that had been stealing food
off the tables, running over officers
faces at night, chewing even the
laces from mems boots.
The ferrets and their 20. !" put up
some great hunts. There were mo-
-ments Of great excitement when the
rats bolted wholesale bfore the new
attack and we're dubbed to death in
the trench by the enthusiastic men.
There were also moments OF breath
less anxiety, when one Of the precious

where below the barbed wire and
was reported steering for the Ger
man trenches. One day Merryield
won the censure OF the authorities
and the enthusiastic approval and
praise Of his comrades by retrieving
lost ferret from No Mans Land In
daylight and under fire.
Little by little the art of rat hunt
ing was learned by the whole bat
talon. Men became wise in ferret
lore, cunning in interpreting the
noises of an underground struggle
between the antagonists. The rats
have ever since given that section Of
the battle zone d wide berth and Ara
fame of the winters successful anti
rat offensive is known to all the
army.

LIGHTNING PROTECTION.

Buildings can be protected from
lightning by the use OF lightning
rods. Farmers Bulletin S42 gives
full explanation on protecting build
ings from lightning. The conductors
can be of any metal. Copper-plated
iron rods give the best satisfaction,
but haif-inch galvanized iron pipes
make q good conductor and are cheap
err. They can be fastened on with the
ordinary galvanized iron pipe straps.
The points should be of iron rods and
should project feet above the peak
OF the roof and IS inches above Chin
neyB. It is very important that the
pipe be well grounded. A good way
feet long into the ground till Gut
inches project, put on 1-2-inch by
l-inch reducer and short 1-2-inch
nipple and join to the pipe on the
building with q common galvanized
iron coupling. This will offer good
protection to a building.-Agr. Elk.
