munities are arranged, which re-
suit in large kills and furnish ex-
cellent sport to the participants.
Although the control of rats is
largely an individual problem, rat
infestation has serious effect on
the whole community, anc organiz-
ed effort is highly desirable. A
man who allows rats to increase on
his property until they menace the
entire neighborhood, or a city dump
which serves as an incubator for
hordes of the pests, become mat
tiers of public concern. The elimi-
nation of rats from a whole COM
munity can best be accomplished
only by the organized effort of all
the citizens. Organized anti-rat
campaigns are increasing in popu-
larity and are becoming the regu-
lar program not only in many
municipalities and counties, but al
so in whole States. Such cam
paigns are of great value from eco
nomic, educational, and sanitary
standpoints. Assistance in plan
ming, organizing, and prosecuting
organized antirat campaigns will
gladly be given by the Biological
Survey, U. S. Department of Ag-
riculture, in the form of direct aid
whenever practicable, by an expert
for campaigns Of large scope, or
by furnishing plans, general in
structions, publicity material, and
sample posters.

CHAPTER vi

The next morning was overcast
with local showers which were Wis.
ible in every direction. l took of
soon after daybreak and after fly.
ing through several storms landed
in a bayfield, at Forest City, Iowa
where I servicei the ship between
showers and took off on the efinal
flight to Shakopee, Minnesota
where / expected to meet my faith
er and carry him around on his
campaign.
l found Shakopee covered by a
cloudburst and in flying around
waiting for the storm to pass so
that l could land l got into a
heavy shower near Savage. One
of the cylinders cut out, and / was
circling preparatory to landing in
clover field when Two more
stopped firing. l was flying at less
than two hundred-foot altitude
and losing that rapidly. 1t was
necessary to land Immediately but
the only choice of landing places
lay between a swamp and high
trees. l took the swamp and cut
the throttle. When the whIcis
touched earth they rolled about
twenty feet, sank in to the spread
er bar and we nosed over.
The rudder did not quite touch
the swamp grass and the plane
stopped after passing through
three-quarters of semi-circ.e, with
the radiator cap and top wing rest
ing on the ground. l was hanging
on the safety belt but when l tried
to open the clasp with one hand,
holding on with the other to keep
from falling out on my head l
found it to be damned. After
several futile attempts to open it l
reverted to the two strap buckles
at the end of the belt to release
myself from the cockpit.
All this required not moro than
two or three minutes.
After getting out of tie cockpit
/ inspected the plane carefully.
Again there was little actual
damage. The propeller YVES badly
cracked and would have to be re-
placed; there was a crack in the
spreader board which required
winding with strong cord. Other
wise the plane was in perfect con-
dition, although splashed with mud.
For once there was no one in
sight, and 1 made my way through
the swamp to the nearest farm
house. On the way I found that
there was solid ground along the
edge of the swamp less than one
hundred yards from tie plane,
from which l could take off.
The farmer had seen the plane
pass over in Uhe rain and was on
his way down towards The swamp
when I met him. He informCd me
that it was not possible to get
horses through the mire out to the
ship and that he had no iLea of
how l was to get it back to hard
sod again.
I borrowed a rope from him to
use in pulling the tail back to
normal position and we started to
the swamp.
Meanwhile it seems thct two
boys had seen me land, and, when
/ did not emerge from the cockpit
immediately, had run to Savage
with the news that "an aviator had
landed upside down in the swamp"
and that they had "gone up and
