Your Life Is Not Safe
If There Are Rats on
Your Premises

The rat is the worst animal pest In the
world.
From it's home among filth it visits
dwellings, and storerooms TO pollute and
destroy human food.
It carries bubonlc plague and many
other diseases fatal to man, and has
been responsible for more untimely
deaths among human beings than all
the wars of history.
In the United States rats and mice
each year destroy crops and other prop
erty valued at over 100000, 000--a de-
structiou equivalent to the gross earnings
of over 100000 men.
On many a farm, If the grain eaten and
wasted by rats and mice could be sold,
the proceeds would more than pay all
the farmers taxes.
The Department of Agriculture has is
sued comprehensive free bulletin which
shows how to light rats aud mice. Our

PECULIAR ACCIDENT

Tuesday morning Chas.
hewitt took some clothes which
he had been soaking in gaso-
line and put them into wash
boiler, covered them with
water and put them on the
stove to boil the grease out.
After Charles left the house,
Mrs. hewitt came into the
kitchen and found the room
full of flame from the gasoline
which had caught fire. She
was prevented from going into
the bedroom by the flames, so
running around the house she
broke a window and crawled
in to get the baby, but in do
ing this severely cut her foot
on the Broken window glass.
Charles came running to the
house and attempted to drag
the boiler with its flaming con-
tents off from the stove but
when he grasped the handle
this came off from being melt
ed by the heat, and he was
badly scalded on the hand and
arm when the hot water and
gas spilled out.
Mr.. and Mrs. Nevitt finally
succeeded in putting out the
fire after they were both hurt
and it seemed that the house
would surely burn down.

the district attorney at Monte

had resisted arrest and it be-
came necessary to kill him.
