SHOWS SAGACIIT Of THE RAT RAT
Method by Which Rodents Steal Eggs
Is Admirable in the Ingenu-
ity Displayed.

A careful student of the rodent
tribe writes: "No single point better
illustrates the sagacity of the rat than
the way in which it eats an egg. 1t
bites through the shell and chips off
small fragments as neatly as a squir-
rel opens a nut, consumes the en-
tire contents without spilling a drop
and then sits up and ticks itself clean
like. cat. Rats will steal the eggs
from under a setting hen. Their
method of handling eggs is also char
acteristic. An egg is as large for q
rat as a barrel is for a man, and
much more fragile. Yet there is evil
dence Of the fact that they pass eggs
along from one to another, although
not probably, as has often been re-
ported, by forming long lines, like a
bucket brigade. The operation is nat
urally difficult one to observe, but
apparently 1t takes two rats to each
egg. One holds the egg in its paws,
passes II on to the other, and then
runs ahead to take it once more in its
turn. The same device seems to
be employed to carry an egg down.

good, clean, fresh water In vessels.
As the days get warmer care should
be taken to change the water as often
as required to keep it clean and fresh.
Avoid overcrOwding in growing
chicks. A coop, brooder, or colony
house that was large enough to hold
the baby chicks is not large enough
after two or more months, depending
on the breed and growth. 1t is abso-
lutely necessary that growing chicks
have plenty of room to grow. Cocker
els that are sufficiently large should
be disposed of. Chicks that have not
shown proper growth should also be
separated and leg or wing banded
Many of these chicks, even the pull
lets, should be marketed. Only the
good, strong, vigorous specimens
should be retained as breeders and
layers, as these are the only ones
that can return profit.
Won't Eat Too Much.
Growing chicks will not eat too
much if they have plenty of range so
they can get the desired exercise. A
good growing mash should be Access
sible at all times to growing chicks.
Such mash should contain plenty of
bone meal ground very fine and fine
ground oats and barley. Be sure to
have the mash ground very fine.
Growing chicks that are kept close
ly confined need much greater atten-
ton along all lines than those that
have range. See that they have plenty
of green feeds that have not wilted
down to almost the decaying point
and that the yards are kept sweet.
Culling also is more essential when
chicks are closely confined
Look for Vermin.
Do not forget to look over the young
chicks from time to time for lice and
mites. Hot weather is the paradise
for lice>and mites. So be careful, be
sure, don't be sorry. Look cut for
lice.
In many sections of the country
where the Matching season started
about the first of the year cockerels
should be separated from the pullets,
especially SO where Leghorns are kept

orioin of Buttons.

The Elizabethan era gave vogue to
the button and buttonhole, two inven,
lions which may he regarded as i'm
portant, since they did much to revo-
lutionize dress The original button
was wholly q product of needlework,
which was soon improved by use OF a
wooden mold. The brass button is
said to have been introduced by Bir-
mingham merchant In 1889. It took
200 years to improve on the method of
sewing the cloth upon the covered
button. Then an ingenious Dane hit
upon the idea of making the button In
two parts and clamping them together
with the cloth between.
The most important branch of the
button industry in the United States
is the making of pearl buttons, the
material for which is obtained from
shells gathered along the Mississippi
river. The industry has grown up
within the last twenty years.

CONNECTS FRANCE AND SPAIN
Tunnel Recently Completed Does Away
With Necessity of Crossing Pyr-
enees Mountain Peaks.

"There are no more Pyrenees' was
once an expression of high political
significance in France. 1t is now
reality, because while all. Europe was
involved in the struggle to crush mil
itarism, the engineers kept blasting
away at the heart of the mountains
dividing France and Spain and have
constructed a tunnel that obviates the
necessity of climbing $500 feet of
mountain peaks before crossing the
boundary. A railway has been Install
ed in this tunnel which connects PUG
cerda, Spain, with AK, France. These
two towns are 20 miles apart, but the
railway is not that long.
BY not impossible grades, it leads
from the lower levels of the pass from
Prades, France, to the upper valley
of the Ariege, near where Puigcerda
is situated. 1t also goes down to the
valley of the great River Ebro. along
which runs system of railways and
canals, making excellent connections
with Saragossa and kany smaller
places in the heart of Spain, and with
the Mediterranean port of Barcelona,
Spain.
Heretofore tourists from the Medi-
terranean region of France have had
to use carriageway through the pass
from Prades. where the railway from
Perpignan ends, to Puigcerda, but the
journey from the valley of the Ariege
river was not so easy.

TO PROTECT LOCUST
TREES FROM BORERS
Plant in Thick Stands to Produce
Shaded Condition.
With Underbrush About Trunks Of
Trees Injury by Insects Is Less
Protection Is Needed for
Very Short Period.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Plantations of the locust tree can be
successfully protected from the bOrer
and grown profitably on a commercial
scale if the trees are planted in thick
stands or mixed with other trees, so
as to produce densely shaded con-
dition during the first ten to fifteen
years. Investigations of the United
States department of agriculture
showed that more trees were de-
stroyed by borers in tracts which had
been pruned occasionally or closely
grazed, or in which fire had killed out
the underbrush, thus destroying the
natural shade produced by weeds and
shrubbery.
The denser the underbrush about
the trunks of the trees, the less the
damage done by borers. Trees grow
ing from two to three feet apart were
seldom injured, while nearby isolated
trees were riddled by borers.
. All trees and all parts Of the tree
are not subject in the same degree to
attack by the borer. Rough bark pro-
vides crevices in which the borers de-
post their eggs. Young trees, less
than one and one-half to two inches
at the base, are not attacked, unless
the bark is rough. On younger trees
the borers are found at the base and
neara rough crotches. Trees with
trunks more than five or six inches in
diameter rarely contain the insects.
On such trees the larger branches
frequently are infested; but such in
jury is seldom common enough to do
much harm. Protection from borers
is necessary for only comparatively
short period during the trees growth.
Under good growing conditions this
time should not exceed ten years.
The locust is widely planted for
ornamental and shade purposes. 1t
is highly desirable because it grows
readily in a variety of soils and stu
atoms 1t grows rapidly and forms a
shapely crown when planted in the
open. But it is frequently attacked
by bOrers. This is because shade
trees are planted singly and in the
open. thus furnishing favorable condi-
tons for attack.
Young borers can be killed readily
by the use of an arsenical spray.
Spraying will be necessary only every
two or three years unless badly in
Tested trees nearby are not treated.
AS rule, spraying will not be need
ed after trees reach six inches in
diameter. Trees of that size are usual
ly immune from attack, but should be
watched.
Locusts make such desirable shade
trees that they should not be neglect
ed and allowed to become injured or
destroyed by borers. The increasing
value Of black or yellow. locust for
many purposes makes it profitable
tree to grow commercially and EN-
,phasizes the Importance Of protecting
it from the borer.
