RATS AND MICE.

While we are on the subject Of consevation-and
IT is before us all the time-why not devote a little at
tention to the rats and mice. These pests destroy
enormous quantities Of food, as we'll as Of other valuable
goods. There are compensations for some pests. The
hawk kills an occasional chicken: But the hawk also
rids the. fields of great numbers Of mice, sophers and
other small animals which we regard as injurious. But.
SO far as we know, there has been discovered NO way
in which rats and mice confer any benefits in return for
the injuries which they infict. y
The automobile has doubtless done q good deal to
diminish the rat plague in our cities. Since the advert
OF the gasoline wagon fewer horses are kept in town.
That means that there are fewer barns alonr the alleys
Fewer barns mean fewer places where rats can find
food and shelter, and fewer places which serve 4. con-

NEXT SEASONS COAL

The demand for coal in the northwest will in all
probability be as great during the coming season as 1t
has been in this one. The demand throughout the ma
ton will be fully as great There is no shortage Of coal,
nor has there been. There has been an insufficient sup
ply in very many places because Of transportation dim
culties. What will happen in the field of transportation
another year no one knows. 1t is to be hoped that cen
tra1ized control will bring about such efficiency that many
Of the defects Of the past will be remedied. But even
and the most capable management can produce, the
work Of carrying on the business of the country which
must be carried on, and of taking care Of the enormous
increases due to the demands Of the war will make the
work of handling the transportation Of the country one
OF great dtnculty.
The distribution Of fuel to the users Of it through
out the country is a task requiring the services of a
great army Of men and the employment of almost in
calculable railroad equipment. 1t must be realized that
reduced TO the lowest point consistent with the economic
efficiency and the reasonable comfort Of the people.
We may expect that arrangements will be made which
will provide against the transportation Of coal to un-
necessarily distant points. Cross hauls are to be avoid
ed. Communities will be served fpom the sources Of
supply nearest them. North Dakota has burned a large
quantity Of Ignite this winter. This has been done
voluntarily. 1t is not at all unlikely that the practice
win BE- continued and enlarged by another winter under
direct orders from the government
1t IL Just az well to look forward and estimate the
probabilities. If it is found that by the use of Ignite
more largely than it has ever been used before the fuel
needs Of the northwest can be served without drawing
rs heavily as usual on thu supplies in the east and on
the transportation necessary to lay the fuel down here
We may expect to learn Of orders being issued carly in
the year limiting very strictly the quantity Of coal that
can be brought to the head OF the lakes and making
strict regulations governing its distribution. This. even
without further orders. will be the service Of notice that
we must look to the Ignite mines for a very large share
Of our heat.
We must remember. too, that the question will not
be entirely one of price. 1t may be that at the prices
which Will prevail there may be a saving of money to
the consumer in burning Ignite. It may be that there
Will be no saving. But the question that is likely to re-
csive the greatest attention from the government is not
that OF price, but that Of the physical availability Of
fusl. And. II We can expedite matters by burning our
own state fuel. even at a little increase in cost, there is
not likely to be any %srumblins. especially rs the money
spent for fuel will remain at home instead of being sent
to the eastern states. ~

RABBIT PACKING
PLANT WILL BE
BUILT in WEST

Oklahoma City. Okla. Jan. Pa
new war time industry has been pro-
jected here and its promoters hope it
will result in adding materially to the
meat supply of the country. a rabbit
packing plant is about to be erected
in Oklahoma City by the Commercial
Rabbit Breeders association. The
concern. with a capital stock of $780,
900, has been incorporated under the
laws of Oklahoma. There is a rabbit
farm in Michigan and another in
California, but not until December Is,
1917. was a rabbit packing organiza-
ton incorporated in any state, accord
ing to information available here.
: The fact that statistics show the
rabbit to be IS per cent nutrin,ent and
the national movement for food con
seryation are responsible for the new
company.
H. G.. Buckins, ,ssecretary-tressurer
of the concern, in talking ofsthe' plans,
said it was not yet certain just when
the plant would be built but that its
cost would be approximately $4,000.

List Shows 1882
Survivors; 345 Missing

Washington, Feb. 1O.-Eighteen
hundred and thirty-two names of
American soldiers rescued from the
torpedoed liner Tuscania had been re-
ported tonight to the war department,
leaving 345 of the soldiers on board
unaccounted for. No official report
has reached the department to change
the estimate that all except 113 of the
men were saved, but the names have
been coming in very slowly over the
cables and there is no assurance as
to when the list will be complete.
From the names so far received and
the passenger list of the lost steamer,
the Associated Press has compiled the
record of those still not reported.
Probably more than 200 of the men
whose names appear on this record
are safe in Ireland will be so reported
soon.
The preparation of the list, even in
it's incomplete form represents an ag-
gregate of 40 hours of labor. The war
department has issued an official roll
of those on the ship. The committee
on public information has made no eff
fort to complete list of the missing,
merely issuing lists of survivors. In
order to compile list of missing and
unreported, it was necessary to
search for each name in both lists, a
laborious process in dealing with more
than 1000 names.

sector, it was under the command of a

be defended with great valor.
