TO COMBAT PLAGUE OF RATS
Buildings Must Be Constructed That
Will Exclude the Pests From
Shelter and Food.

A single rat, remarks David Il. LantZ
States department of agriculture, does
far less harm in a year than any one
lion, tiger or wolf; but the big animals
of prey are few, while rats are deplor-
ably abundant There are possibly two
or three times as many rats as there
are people in the civilized world; and
the destruction wrought by this vast
horde of vOrncious rodents Is far great-
or than that wrought by wolves, tigers
and all other nOXiouS animals to
Ecther.
TO combat this dangerous pest sue
ccssfully, says Lantz, is largely build
ing problem. Buildings should be so
constructed as to exclude the animals
from shelter and food. When this is
done. individual and community efforts
TO destroy rats will give satisfactory
ana lasting results. The program may
he regarded by many as too expensive.
VIII ii be too costly? What do rats
cost nOw2 II half the money now
spent in feeding and fighting rats could
be expended in wisely planned and
well-eXecuted cooperative efforts for
rat repression, ii would be possible
within n few years nearly to rid the
cOsntry of its worst animal pest to re-
duce losses from its depredatiOns by
at least 90 per cent, and to free the
land completely from the fear of bu-
boniC plague.

international News Service f:


WASHINGTON, March 15.- Of
fetal Washington thrilled today fol-
lowing the overnight report that
American forces in the Luneviue
sector actually have occupied and
are holding German trenches north
east of Badonvilliers. Although but
a small matter so far as territory
gained was concerned. and Of prac-
t!cally no strategic value, il was
characterized by army officers who
are in complete touch with the sit
uation as the first bite" and an in
dication of what is to follow.
incidentally. the map bears out
the report from army headquarters
that the consolidation of the
trenches has made it possible for
the American and French forces to
operate from higher ground than
heretofore, thus giving them better
facilities for their artillery.
1t is accepted that the occupying
troops will have 20 fight hard to
hold their gains. Although the
press dispatches published here this
morning said that the Germans
made only feeble efforts TO retake
the position, il is accepted that they
will attack in force later on. This
is their usual course, officials say
However there is no fear here as
TO the outcome.
In advance of an official report
from Gen. Pershing on the subject.
officials said that it was apparent
that the American artillery was
working to excellent advantage
everywhere. In this very connec-
ton reports that have reached here
show that the work Of the American
gunners has surprised and delighted
their French instructors.
Not only in France, but in the
army cantonments in this country
the American gunncrs are attaining
the highest proficiency in the use
OF their guns and this is certain to
prove an important factor when the
real offensive starts
