Practical Method of
Getting Rid of Rats
Exhaust From Gasoline En-
CINE Will Destroy Them.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuiture,)
Are you troubled with rats. espe-

Fasten a length Of hose on the end
of the exhaust from your gasoline en-
giLe-whether it be a "fivver" or a
tractor-back the a up within reach
Of the rat burrow, and adjust the car
buretor for a rich mixture. Pack damp
earth around the hose at the entrance
to the hole to seal it. Run the engine
Mt a moderate speed for ten minutes
or more and the rats will be destroyed.
This method Is entirely practical, ac-
cording to the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture, when there are
only a small number OF holes or the
area to be fumigated Is not too ex-
tensive. II may also be used success
fully In destroying rats beneath floors
or In other places where a concentra-
ton of the gas a be obtained.
Community effort is urged in getting
rid of rats by the above means and
also by cleaning up rubbish, spreading
poison bats. setting traps, and rat
proofng buildings. Individual prop

that he had evidence hat banner was

her husband killed the couple with a

the banner cabin at Three Forks.
This is an important fact in the

maintained that he never saw the
Sprouses after they left Mobridge, S.
D., "two weeks and n day. before the
banners left for the west and also that
he never had camped at the place

LODGE TO RELINOUISH
ACTIVITIES IN SENATE

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-Senator
Henry Cabot Lodge, the last of the
famous group of elder statesmen
which has dominated the United
States senate since the days Of Mark
Hanna, is about to relinquish, in
some measure, his active leadership
in favor of younger blood.
Senators Wadsworth, of New York,
and Lenroot, of Wisconsin, have been
selected as Republican spokesmen in
senate debate. This means that Lodge
will gradually shift the arduous bur-
den of debating party issues on the
senate floor to his two younger lieu
tenants.
For many months a group of
younger senators have been restive
under Lodges control. Cautious sug-
gestions have been made that Lodge
retire from the leadership. Some
reasoned that Lodge, who is now 73
years old and has served 80 years
in the senate, has approached the
point where he should not expend the
physical energy which the active sem
ate leadership demands, Others in
timated that some one representing
more progressive views should sue
ceed to the steering wheel.

DUSSELDORF, Feb. 6-The French
occupied zone has been extended to

In German quarters it is declared
this latest move of the French has for
its real goal the Kehl bridgehead, op-
posite Strassburg. This would give
the French control of the railways
along the right banks of the Rhine
There was little change over the
weekend in the general industrial
situation. The railway workers are
being offered cash bonuses In an ell
fort to revive the strike. The Com
munists, on the other hand, are ac-

clarations that the German capital
lists whose refusal to fulfill the French
demands had led to the entire sit.
