THE rat IN RATIFICATION
It will be a matter of special inter-
est, now that beer is back, to know
that rats are crazy about malt when
it is fermenting. They will even climb
ladder to get near the malt in the
beer vat. In the days before the
coming of Prohibition the brewers
had hard work to keep rats out of
their watts. Climbing to the top of
the vat hungry rat, crazy to get at
the fermenting malt, would lean down
toward the beer and presently fall
in. ****Some of the brewers used to
keep a paddle with which to fish out
dead rats in the morning. 1t was i'm
possible to see the rat and it would
lie at the bottom until the third day
when it would swell and rise so that
it was easier to get the paddle under
it and lift it out of the beer. ****Some
months ago bootleg vat in Pennsy-
lvania was raided and it was decided
to clean it out and they found 50
dead rats. ****Persons who are think
ing Of cultivating a taste for beer
would do we'll to see that all rats in
the vicinity of the brewery they in
tend to patronize have been destroy
