Mr.. RAT ONCE MORE

"The rat is the worst animal pest
In the world. Il carries many dis
eases fatal to man and has been re-
sponsible for more untimely deaths
among human beings than all the
wars Of history. On many a farm,
II the grain eaten and wasted by rats
and mice could be sold. the proceeds
would more than pay all the farmers
taxes. A pair Of rats. breeding un.
interruptedly and without deaths,
would at the end Of three years be in.
creased TO 359,7O9,4S2 individuals.
For centuries the world has been
fighting rats without organization
and at the same time has been feed
ing them and building for them fort
resses for concealment. II we are to
fight them on equal terms, we must
deny them food and hiding places.
We must organize and unite to rid
communities Of these pests. The time
to begin is now" Farmers Bulle-
tin s96, U. s. Department Of Agri-
culture.
To exterminate these villains two
steps are necessary: (1) blockade, (2)
attack. In other words, stop feeding
them and kill them.
Houses, barns, vegetable and fruit
cellars, granaries, poultry houses.
chicken coops, etc, should be made
absolutely ratproof. Where cement
foundations are not already in use,
they should be put in, or a wall Of
cement, say four inches thick, should
be built up on the outside Of the
wooden ones. These should extend
two feet into the ground All open
ings for ventilation should be guarded
by heavy wire screening. Movable
chicken coops may be made ratprooof
by laying Ion the ground a piece of
heavy wire screening large enough to
set the coop on, of course making all
sides of the coop impervious from the
base up. Great care should be ex-
ercised to avoid scattering grain or
other food where rats may find it.
All garbage should be promptly dis
posed Of or kept in tightly covered
garbage cans. The less food the rats
can find. the less rapidly they will
breed and the more readily they will
take the bait of traps.
To kill the rodent the best method
on the whole is by trapping. Where
they are very numerous they may be
enticed into a ratproof Enclosure and
killed by men and dogs. Poison may
be effective, but must be used with
the greatest care. Perhaps the best
kind Of trap is the guillotine, made
wholly Of metal. Several of these
