RAT KILLING

Be STARTED
IN AMER|CUS
COUNTY DEMONSTRATION AGENT
GE0EGE @. MARSHALL WILL CO.
OPERATE WITH AUTHORITIES
IN EFFORT TO ELIMINATE DE-
STRUCTIVE PESTS THROUGH
OUT GEORGIA.

Kill the Rat!
This is the newest slogan, and one
likely to become very popular IN
Americus within brief time
The destruction tendencies OF the
rat have been long known, but in this
land of great plenty little attention
has been paid to the damage wrought
h. this greatest of all menaces.
But this has all changed. Food
stuffs are too badly needed by the
people of the world to permit their
wastage. The rat must go; they eat
too much and. the federal authorities
have determined to put an end to their
existence.
Rats spread disease as we'll as eat
and some of the most virulent plaques
known to moder medical science are
declared to be due directly to tn
presence of rats.
The best method for ridding ones
premises of rats is to put away all
food where it cannot be reached by
the rodents. but this is rather diff
ficult matter. Rats will burrow un-
der the floors and eat holes in wood
en- floors and adopt all sorts of mea-
sures to secure entry into places
where food is stored The loss in
foodstuffs created last year in Geor-
gia alone by rats is estimated con
servatively at $6,OO0,OOO.
George o Marshall, county farm
demonstration agent here, will coop
e,ate with the state authorities in the
coming campaign. and he already has
considerable literature bearing upon
the subject of rat eradication. The
nesta are slated for the discard and
hey must 90. Every person who Kills
a rat does just that much to help
via the war.

rabbits, lingering around town
all day and coming back with
out selling them. When asked
by his mother why he had
not sold the rabbits, he said
no one asked him what was
in the sack. How many Of
our merchants are like this

of goods for sale but fail to
tell the people what is in the
sack. If you expect to sell
goods in this day andage, you
must open your sack and
keep shouting the merits of
your stock in trade.
