No Open House for Rats.

Do not keep "open house" for rats
by leaving basement doors ajar for
ventilation without proper safeguards.
The management Of large depart
ment store In an eastern city recently
had a very expensive lesson in this
regard. Rats had been doing damage
to the extent Of nearly $1,000 month,
but by persistent trapping were finally
exterminated. The building was them,
made "rat-prOof." But after time
rats were again at their work Of de-
struction.
Puzzled to know how the pests hadG
gained entrance, the management
learned that In summer the night
watchman was accustomed to leave a.
basement door open for ventilation.
Naturally the rats entered and an
other campaign Of determination hads
to be waged. This expense could cas-
lily have been prevented, says the bu.-
reau Of biological survey of the Depart
ment Of agriculture, If a piece of sheet
iron three feet high had been placed
across the doorway and the sides Of"
the doorway sheeted with metals
or otherwise made smooth so that rats
could not gain foothold. Rats cam
not climb over such barriers, as they"
do over mesh or crossed wires.

Infertile Eggs
Keep Best

The greatest loss in preserved eggs
comes from the fact that fertile eggs
are preserved, according to @. 8. An
derson Of the Colorado Agricultural
college. Fertile eggs will keep equally
as well as infertile eggs, providing at
no time they have been brought to q
degree Of heat where the germ starts
20 develop. In holding fertile eggs for
preserving, they should not be allowed
to get above so degrees Fahrenheit.
During the early spring months this Is
easily done, but In warmer weather
poultrymen should take the precaution
and produce infertile eggs. Fertiliza-
tion Is not an incentive to egg produc-
tion among domestic fowls, and the
number Of eggs produced will be In no
way diminished.
The fertile eggs contain no germ to
be developed, Withstand more heat,
are slow to decay, and can be preserv-
I'd with the minimum amount OF loss.

Men Having Gray Eyes Have
Proved to Be Best MarkSmen

Gray-eyed men, says Fort Worth
correspondent, are the best marksmen.
This has been proved after eight
months experience at the rifle range
Of Camp Bowie, and besides old army
experts will tell you the same thing.
When Capt. K. r. Breese was here
giving his instruction In the use Of the
new rifle he said that proficiency in
craftsmanship usually ran according
to the color Of the eyes. men having
gray being the best shots, gray-blue
coming next, blue third. hazel fourth,
brown fifth, and black sixth.
Records show that soldiers whose
eyes are light brown to black cannot
shoot with accuracy at a distance
greater than 500 yards and at 500
yards miss the target altogether.
Even with different nations the
color Of the eyes has determined
shooting ability. Nearly every Mex
lean has brown or black eyes and they
well, they are the poorest shots in
the world.

Good Wartime Dishes.

A most tasty combination which was
discovered quite by accident is the fol-
lowing: In preparing a potato salad
for small family the addition OF
two guests made the stretching Of the
salad imperative, so cupful Of nice
ly seasoned cottage cheese, which had
been left over, was added to the pota-
to salad, making such tasty one that
hereafter we will use cottage cheese
with our potato salad. A pimento had
been used to season the cheese, which
added to the appetizing flavor.

THE new MINUTEMAN

a-4-a-1-H-a-aa-4-p-q-a-n-4
He was working just as peaceful an he
used to work at home
That's anywhere you care TO name from
Galveston to Nome
He was oiing up an engine, or was toy
ing with spade,
When the Teutons took q notion that
they'd like 10 start a raid.
Well. the worker saw them coming-like
the spawn spilled out Of hell
And he cooked his Yankee eye. at them
and said: "oh. very well.
II my job Is interrupted I'll find some
thing else to do
And he shook his hairy Yankee fist at
all the Teuton crew.
Then he hailed a wounded Tommy and he
said. See here. my son,
would thank you mighty kindly II you'd
letsme have your gun:
For those chaps have stopped my work
ing and feel chock-full of spite.
SO guess I'll dig shelter hole and set
tie down to fight"
He hadn't soldier training and he didn't
need command,
But he knew the proper place was
front" and there he took his stand.
Like a soldier Of the soldiers, like a peer
among his peers.
For the credit and the honor OF the
Yankee Engineers.
And he may be dead or living. but whsr-
ever he Is found
He will sure be facing forward and hold
ing hard his ground;
And he holds his proper station In the
hearts Of those at home
That's everywhere that you can name

AN OPTIMISTIC STATEMENT
thousands Like the Handly-Paige
Bombing Machine Are Now Under
Construction--Libert Motors for
England, France and Italy.

Washington, ID. C.-Very little has
been heard lately about our aircraft
program-very little, indeed, since
The Liberty motor was pronounced q
failure and a whole years work OF
preparations was spoken Of by critics
as criminal delay
a So it is important, indeed, to have
an official statement-the first made
--by John d. Ryan, chairman OF the
aircraft production board, who was
appointed by President Wilson to take
over the management OF our whole
aircraft program. Ryan has modestly
kept himself in the background for
three months. refusing to express any
opinions publicly about the work OF
his predecessors or the plans Of his
own organization. He made a thor
ough study, however, OF the happen
ings before his appointment and sat
isfied himself as to the truth or falsity
OF the public criticism
n. Ryan's Optimistic Statement. g
The head OF the aircraft production
board chose as the occasion for his
optimism the launching of the huge
Handly-Paige bombing machine, de-
signed by the British, but built at
Elizabeth, N. j., and driven with two
Liberty motors of more than 400.
horse power. Mr. Ryan said: 't
II am glad to say that thousands
Just like this one, one OF the most
powerful ever built, are under con-
struction, all to be driven by the Lib.
srty motor, the best and most power.
ful aeronautical engine ever built. @
I'VE are now furnishing Liberty
engines to our own airplane manufac-
turers, and England, France and Italy
have called on us to furnish Liberty
motors for installation OF their own
planes. The production Of the air.
plane In quantity Is easy, but that Of
the airplane engine Is another mat
ter. i''.
There has been great diissatisfac-
tion expressed by the people Of the
country at the results attained In the
production Of aircraft. Some Of 1t has
been warranted, but most of It has
0een caused by expressions beyond
possibility or performance. :@'
"Much work has been done by my
predecessors and am taking this op-
portunity to assure the people of the
country that In my opinion there has
been no such delay with the work or
anything like such incapacity of those
I'm charge as has been indicated In
some Of the criticism Of the accom-
plishments or lack OF them in pro.
duction." ara
