RATS ARE CARRIERS OF DISEASE AND
 DESTROY FOOD

WASHINGTON, Oct 29.-The Unit ,d States Agricultural Department ,tates that, rats yearly destroy crops md other property valued, at over 2O0,0OO,O00. A very large part of It s grain in fields and warehouses; t takes an army of over 100000 men 70 produce what these rats and mice annually destroy or consume, includ- 'ng losses from fires caused by these creatures. It is stated that many farmers taxes are less than the val le of his grain eaten and wasted by he predatory animals. The increase of rats and mice is enormous when no measures are taken to exter minate them. A pair of rats breed uninterruptedly, and without deaths, would produce eighteen generations, pr an increase>,of 359, 9,7O4,482 indi- viduals in three years.
 They must be denied food and hid ing places and only by organization can communities be rid of the pests Attempts to exterminate rats and mice have failed, not SO much be- cause of lack of means, as because of the neglect of necessary precau- tions and concerted endeavors. The work has been unsatisfactory because subsistence and hiding places con- tinue to be supplied
 The first measure for rat repres- sion is exclusion from places where they find food and safe retreats for rearing young The best way to keep rats from buildings is to use ce- ment in the basement.

ROCKS WORN OFF BY THE SOPHIA IN
 TURNING AROUND
Examination of Reef at Low Tide Shows Wreck ed Boat Turned Con-
 pIeteIy Around.

The rescue boat Monaghan, Captain Robert o. Griswold, accompanied by Harry Morton, United States Deputy marshal, yesterday visited the reef from which the Princess Sophia slid into the sea, at low tide, and noticed that the place in which the vessel had rested was worn as smooth as a silver dollar and the rocks were white from being ground beneath the keel of the steamer
 The Princess> Sophia's bow now rests in the opposite direction from which the steamer was facing when she rested on the reef The fact that the jagged reef underneath the vessel was worn so smooth gives an idea of the pressure of the steel plates against the rocks. Several of the steel plates from the bow were curled up and lying on the reef.
 l It is believed that the wind quar- tering on the stern swung 1t around slowly. the bow holding until all the vessel cleared the reef save the bow, and that she then swung free and filled from the forward part, as the bow had been dented, and plunged beneath the waters. The pressure of the air and possibly a boiler explosion released the oil. The forward mast was intact, with all of the guy lines taunt.
