MARION, O., July 1s-As in in
terpretations of the Chicago plat

ing accepting the Republican nom
nation is expected to be the real
keynote of the Republican can
paign. Unusual care is being taken
to make certain that his speech
touches comprehensively on all the
important issues. and lays a broad
basis for the party's fight for pop
ular support.
In his declaration regarding the
new farmer-iabor party. some of
the senator's friends saw an indi-
cation that the Republican attitude
toward the farmer and laborer
might come in for particular atten-
tion in the notification day speech.
TIE senator has revealed none of
his intentions regarding the speech.

NEWARK, July 16. - Samuel
Wilson, assistant superintendent
of the anti-s&loon league Of New
Jersey, in statements today to
State Attorney McCran, state
Supreme Justice Swayze, county
judges and prosecutors charged
that "a pacit agreement exists

Mr.. Wilson charged the Vol

Essex, Passaic. Atlantic and Union
counties. where he asserted there
IS a conspiracy to foster the
liquor traffic. He said he
furnished federal authorities with
names of cafes and saloon keepers
from whom he had obtained
liquors.
There is no conscious effort
being made to enforce the Vol
stead act" he said, due to the
desire of politicians to obtain big
campaign funds from liquor and

PLOW LEVEL SOILS IN FALL
Stubborn sods Are More Surely Exter-
minated and Moisture. Supply Is
Greatly Increased.

If all ground was level we might
make the assertion that all soils are
benefited by fall plOwing as there is
much to be gained through this prac-
tice. Level soils that do not wash are
benefited since stubborn sOds are
more, easily exterminated and the
moisture supply for the crop the fol
lowing spring is greatly increased; :;
however, hilly land or that inclined
to wash is damaged by being fall
plowed. The available plant foods are
washed out, gullies are made in the
hillside and the fields are subject TO
weathering during the winter. The
fertility of sandy soils or soils that
are rolling is best conserved by plow-
ing only in the spring and then as late
RS possible in order to get the crop
out on time.

FIGHT ON RATS
MUST Be WAGED
Constant Warfare Must Be Made
on Pestiferous Rodent to
Get Best Results.
DETERMINATION IS POSSIBLE
No Matter How Badly House Be In
tested With Pests Methods Per-
fected Will Absolutely De-
stroy Little Animals.

Spasmodic rat determination CAM
paigns are of course beneficial, but to
secure lasting results constant warfare
must be waged against the rat. say
specialists of the bureau Of biological
survey, United States Department of
Agriculture. The necessity for this is
plain in the fact that rats begin to
breed at three months and have from
six to ten litters year, with an aver
age of ten young to each litter.
Radiance Possible.
Specialists of the department of ag-
riculture for years have made exten-
sive studies of rats and methods Of
discriminating them. No matter how
BADLY a house may be infested with
rats. these experts maintain, the use
of the methods perfected by them will
absolutely, and without doubt. rid the
house Of the rodents.
Throughout the United States health
authorities are advocating the use Of
these methods and gratifying results
are being secured. Thus Kansas has
designated a special "rat day." Gin
cinnati is spending thousands of dol
lars in a rat campaign, and similar
movements are being conducted at
Norfolk. along the Gulf coast, and in
many other cities. In addition the bu-
reau is constantly giving advice to hun
dreds of correspondents.
Means of Destroying.
"Rat proofing" of buildings is the
basic step in rat determination. Food
should be protected and sanitary meth
ods employed for disposal Of waste
food. Where rats may die in the walls
poisoning is not recommended, but
where this condition cannot result
barium carbonate worked into almost
any kind of food is the poison to use
Snap traps, often called "guillotine
traps" are the most effective in trap
ping. The traps should be placed ir
every part of the house that rats FIRE
quent. One or two traps are not
enough. The traps should be baitet
with fresh meats, seeds, nuts, vege
tables, fruit, Or any other food.
