dine and remain 10 die by drowning
This is only one of the tricks being
used by the Massachusetts farmers,
who set aside one week each year for
waging war on rats to keep them from
moving into Winter quarters in feed
rooms, poultry houses, barns, sheds and
even homes where, during the cold
months, they can do an incredible
amount Of destruction
But not everyone has a water barrel
and some people like other kinds Of
rat traps better. These potential rat
eXterminators are not so deluded that
they believe rat" cheese is the best
kind or bait Tests show that rats
prefer hamburg steak, peanut butter,
bananas. sweet chocolate or raw eggs
or they may nibble at fish, rolled oats.

This red squill poison can be obtained
from any county agricultural agent
and 80 cents worth is enough TO kill all
the rats on the farm.
Even one pair OF rats can do a lot Of
damage before the year Is out because
they may have as many as 120 babies
in that time. Every year, says the
United States Fish and Wildlife Serv-
ice. rats destroy as much food as
100000 farmers can produce
Another New England trick for
catching rats was used by Mr. George
Steele, clam-digger OF Sebasco,
Maine. When the big shore rats in
tested his big pile Of clam shells for
bits Of meat, Mr.. Steele took 25 or 30
giant CLANS and put them in a row near
low-tide mark. The hungry rats would
stick their shouts inside the opened
shells the alert clans instantly shut
the shells and the rats noses were
caught fast. 40 amount Of struggling
got them free and the incoming tide
drowned the trapped rodents

Odd Ways That Modern e Pied i q Pipers

THE Pied Piper Of Hmelin had
nothing on the farmers of Massa-
chusetts, for without pomp, cere-
mony or one piped note of weird
music they lure their rat pests TO
watery DOOM
The trick is simple Although it is
additionally the elephant who never
forgets. once a rat finds out where TO
get tasty meal he can find his way
back time and again and he brings all
the family with him including his
uncles and his cousins and his aunts.
SO the rat-killing New England
farmers (maybe they do it out in
Kansas and other places. too just fill
up some steel barrels to within one
foot of the top with feed They oblig-
ingly put a board up against the side
of the barrel to make it easy for the
rats 20 get a square meal There's no
catch 20 this yet.
Soon the rats are so used to their
handy barrel dinner that hey scurry
right up the plank and nose-dive in
without single look bcfore-t hey-leap.
This traininG period takes only few
days and after that the feed is taken
out and the barrel Is filled pI,h water.
