RATS DESTROY FOOD, EOR.
$50, 900, MEN.

The 130,0OO,OOO common rats in
the u. S.. eat or render unfit by con-
tamination each year the equivalent
of food enough to maintain. an army
of 1,25O,OOO soldiers. This destruc-
tion is in addition to damage to ma
terials and buildings and to the
ever present menace of rats as dis
ease carriers.
T. H.. Parks, extension specialist
in entomology, Ohio State Univer-
sity, says the problem of rat con-
troll has been made more difficult
by the disappearance of potent red
squill from the market. This ideal
rat poison is produced in the Medi-
terranean areas from which the u.
S. will get no imports as long as
Italy is in the war.
Red squill will kill rats but not
poisonous to poultry, livestock, or
human beings. The substitute poi
sons which are effective rat killers
are just as effective in killing any
other animal which consumes a
lethal dose. The available poisons
can be used if proper care is exer-
cised in the preparation of bats, in
placing the bats so that no animal
except rats or mice can reach them,
and in collection and destroying un-
used bats when the rats have been
killed.
Ohio agricultural agents will give
directions to individuals for mixing
effective poison bats for rats when
the agent is satisfied the person
asking for information will follow
instructions. No agent can recon-
mend the wholesale use of poisons
that may cause livestock losses or
the death of human beings
