HAD RATS IN TRUNK THE OPENING OF WHICH WAS CAUSE OF SCRAMBLE. .fter Making Voyage Across Atlantic In Packing Case Owned by Family Of Germans, Over Score of Rodents Are Killed. Baltimore! Customs inspectors at least some of the old-timers like Will- lam H. Richardson, Charles H. Bran nan. Lewln J. Heathcote and others expect to run across things that are strange and sometimes dutiable in the baggage of steamship, passengers from the other side. Even the young er members of the force are on the lookout for experiences that are out of the ordinary; but in the more than a guarter of a century of service under Uncle Sam Inspector Richardson the other day encountered something new under the sun, as far as the United. States customs regulations are concerned. Examination of baggage, especially that of immigrants, is not the jnost pleasant occupation in the world. Ask any customs Inspector about this. But to open a box of personal belongings and then to jam one's hand Into a aest of rats or rather three of them is Just a little bit more than even a blase inspector cares to go through. And because of this there hangs a tale or, to be more exact, nearly two flozen tails and the following is the Kara: The Breslau, with 1,163 passengers from Bremen, docked at pier 8, Locust Point, the other afternoon, where the cabin passengers were landed that night, and the steerage kept aboard until the next morning. There were ,103 in the steerage, the majority of whom were men, but there were a number of women and several fami lies among the immigrants. One of the families was that of Heinrich Popken, a thrifty Oerman, who bad with him a splendid family of seven full-grown children, in addition to his wife six handsome daughters and one son each of them well dressed, apparently well educated, and, need less to say, the cause of considerable comment The family had numerous packages containing household goods nd personal belongings. Inspector Richardson opened the first box and found nothing dutiable. While be was taking out the belongings of the Pop kens, a second case had been opened. As soon as the Ud was lifted the In spector saw that nothing but ruin lay before him. "Rats!" he cried. Se what rats have done." witn the cry the case was sur rounded by customs officers, railroad men and immigrants. And it was a sorrowful sight to the Popkens. The ease had been filled with clothing; but not even a ragman would have taken the articles as they lay. Inspector Richardson took charge of the situation and there began a search tor the marauders. They were Boon uncovered. First one and then an Jther of the rodents was unccremonl )usly chased out of bis comfortable juarters. The cry spread among the Immigrants, and in a few seconds the hole pier was in an uproar. The cry of "Rats!" in half a dozen languages rang through the building. Here and there scurried , the rats. After them sped former Cossacks, Austrlans, Rou manians, Bulgarians, Germans, Poles ind Hungarians. Not one rat man aged to escape, and when the carnage was over there were 23 of them stretched lifeless on the hard, cold Boor. IMPORTANCE OF DISINFECTING AFTER OUTBREAK OF DISEASE Practice Noi Entirely Appreciated by Stockman and Farmer - There . Is Also Lack ox Information Concerning , Practical and Economical Methods of Procedure ox Cleaning. (By GEORGE W. POPE.) It has been found that the average Stockman and farmer does not real ize the importance of thoroughly dis infecting his premises following an outbreak of contagious disease. There la apparently a widespread lack of Information regarding the germicidal power of various substances, com monly termed disinfectants. There Is also a lack of knowledge concerning practical and economical methods of proceeding with the work of disinfec tion. Moreover, the reappearance of a contagious disease on premises from which it was believed to have been eradicated may frequently be traced to careless or Imperfect work In con nection with the cleaning and disin fection of the place. It is but natural to acknowledge the presence of only such objects as can be seen with the unaided eye. Sci ence, however, by means of the high- power microscope, has clearly proved the existence of numerous minute ani mal and vegetable organisms and It is a matter of common knowledge that many of these organisms fre quently find their way Into the ani mal body and produce disease. It Is also well known that these germs vary in form and other characteristics and that for each disease of an in fectious nature there is a specific germ. If these germs could be confined to the animal body and die with it there would be no such thing as an infec tious disease. Unfortunately, how ever, they are thrown off by the ani mal through the excretions and lie in the earth, in the litter of stables, up on the floor and walls, and In cracks and crevices. ' Here they may remain and maintain their virulence for an Indefinite period, ready at any time to be gathered up by an animal In its feed or to be blown about in dust and drawn into the lungs. The work of disinfection is based npon our recognition of the presence of disease germs, and disinfection means the act of destroying the cause of the infection. In other words, disinfection is a removal of the cause, and it will be clear to any practical man that in dealing with disease any effort which stops snort of a com plete removal of the cause is most unwise and unprofitable. To those un- Such drugs are known as disin fectants, and, fortunately, we have at hand a number that possess the pow er of destroying bacteria. Bichlorld of mercury also known as corrosive sublimate and mercurlo chlorid, chlorid of lime, formalde hyde, carbolic acid, crude carbollo acid, cresol, and compound solution of cresol, are such drugs. They have only to be brought in contact with the bacteria in order to destroy them. Before either of the above are used, however, the farmer should study their peculiar "characteristics and use the one best suited to his purpose. Violent poison should not be used unless the user of the dis infectant Is familiar with it and its results. In the practical work of disinfec tion there are three essentials: 1. A preparation of the building that will facilitate reaching organisms of disease. 2. A disinfectant which upon con tact can be depended upon to destroy such organisms. 3. A method of applying the dis infectant that will assure the mosjt thorough contact with the bacteria. INCREASING THE YIELD OF GRASS Anions Foor Chief Essentials are Smooth Surface, Prepara tion.

Gen. Frank Canton of the Oklahoma National Suard, has returned from Benjamin, Texas, where he attended the funeral of his nephew, Roy Burnett, a rich roung cattleman of New Mexico. The cattlemen of the range coun try," says General Canton, "place only Sve cartridges In their six-shooters and keep the vacant chamber under the trigger, to lessen the chance of accident at discharge. But Roy bad habit of playing with his revolver by slowly pulling the trigger so ns to turn the cylinder without firing, and oounting the chambers as they passed before the trigger place. After count ing five he would give the trigger a bard pull and snap the weapon on the vacant chamber, Bearing some friend the while by pointing the re volver at bim.

PB nig Big Money tn Muskrattlng. Balem, N. J. Isaac Brandlff, the well-known Salem county muskrnt trapper, has closed hta place on the narshes for the season and is ready for a trip to Alaska for the summer. Mr. Brandlff reports that during the past season he cought 9,830 rats, for which he received over 5,000, the average being about 62 cents per rnt. He endeavored to reach the 10,000 mark, but foil short because hundreds of the rats were frozen to death in the terribly hard winter, the first time he itd ever seen that condition. Applying Disinfectant accustomed to-the work, disinfection may seem a most complicated proc ess. Any approved method, however, Is comparatively simple when carried out carefully, although like many another procedure it is one In which attention to details counts for much. It is important to bear In mind that the causative agents of many dis eases are extremely small and may remain for an indefinite time in dust, cracks, and crevices of buildings, so that efforts aiming at the eradication of disease from contaminated prem ises must be thorough in order to be effective. In the work of disinfection nature has provided man with a most valu able ally sunlight. It is well known that the direct rays of the sun are destructive to many forms of bac teria, in some-cases destroying them and in others lessening their Influ ence. Thus the importance of well lighted stables is evident The dark and sunless building Will be a favor able breeding place tor bacteria, and the structure which admits the great est amount of sunlight will be the least favorable for their development. Again, heat will destroy the bacteria of disease. By this is not meant the ordinary heat of the sun, but heat as developed In boiling water or in flame. It is upon this principle that the surgeon before operating renders his instruments free from the possi ble presence of bacteria by boiling. and it la heat which renders a jet of live steam destructive to bacteria. Sunlight however, cannot be consid ered more than an accessory In the destruction of bacteria, while the ap plication of heat in the form of Bteam or flame Is seldom possible. The re sult Is that in the practical work of disinfection we are dependent upon certain drugs, which have power to destroy the organisms of disease.

Farmers who content themselvei with two tons or less cannot under stand how yields of three or four tons even more are obtained. There are, however, four chief essentials; a smooth surface, with even, steady grade, thorough preparation of the soil, and abundance of good, healthy seed and plenty of fertility and to which might be added the proper amount of moisture. Where land is stumpy or rocky, it may be considerable expense to re move them, but to obtain the greatest amount of grass it must be done. The rocks must either be sunk or hauled away and the surface smoothed so as to give a gentle grade. A little de pression where the water can stand may cause a patch of grahss to die out and a few patches will kill a hundred pounds of hay. After this thorough grading the land is thoroughly fitted. This does not mean just plowed and harrowed in the ordinary way. I prefer the use, of a cut-away disc, whch does the work just the opposite to the turning plow. The continued working of the soil with the cut-away clears the soli of foul stuff and gives the new seeding a chance. The soil should be worked over with the cut-away and the smoothing harrow many times, not all at once, but continued through July and August. In this way, when ready to seed the soil is certainly as fine as an ash heap. The seed then should be put on carefully and accurately, so. as to have every square Inch of surface covered, thus having two blades of crass where one formerly was. The question frequently asked is: Why is this large amount of potash necessary? No one who has ever used fertilizers on grass need be told that nitrogen gives the grass a rich, green color and makes it grow very rapidly. Care of the Brooder. Brush out the brooders every other day, changing the material used in floor covering. This may be of bran, sand, sawdust or paper, but must be dry. Damp bedding induces disease every time. When it is necessary to wash the brooder choose a warm, sun ny day, so that the chicks will not need it, and 1: can be thoroughly dried be fore returning them at night. If these conditions cannot be complied with a temporary brooder may be used for the day by means of a box and one or two jugs of hot water well wrapped in flannel, the latter serving the double purpose of holding in the heat and preventing a chick being crowded up and burnt. Bait tn some quantity is a neces sity to the living animal. Some food contains all that is probably needed, but the amount In others Is smalt In order to guard against any pos sible deficiency it Is well to toed some salt, especially if it Increases the palatabllity of the ration. Moderate quantlUoa of salt had boon fed to poultry with apparent ad vantage, but the limitations of its use were not known. A feeding trial was, therefore, made with twelve hens to get some suggesUon as to the approximate limit of Its safe feeding to mature fowls. For one lot of hens salt was mixed In the food, increasing in amount by periods of feeding. Un til it was ted at the rate of .083 Drinking Vessels. A good way to prevent hens from overturning their drinking vessels is to punch a hole in the side near the top of a tin pail or old tomato can and hang it up on a nail driven into the woodwork of the chicken house, about six inches from the ground. Be sure there are no sharp edges to the can or that the head of the nail does not protrude more than half an inch. ounces per day, per fowl (nearly one half pint per day for 100 hens) no bad effects were noticed. With this amount, however, diar rhoea attacked a few of the hens, but the trouble disappeared when the amount of salt In the food was re duced a"bout one-third. When the hens were allowed free access to boxes of course barrel salt, not enough was eaten to show any ill ef fect, either by hens that had been f salt freely for two months or by those that had been without any for the" same time. LltUe significance was attached to the egg yield from the old hens fed at an unproductive time of year, but twice as many eggs were obtained from the salt-fed hens as from the others so there was no indication ol unfavorable effect in this direction When reporting the experiment it was suggested that salt at the rate ol one ounce per day for 100 matured fowls could be fed without risk. In later feeding it was found that five ounces of salt In every 100 pounds of food was a sale proportion. . Importance of Physiognomy. "Do you believe a man with a reced ing chin is likely to get along as well In this world as a man with a chin that projects?" "It all depends upon tircumstances. If the man with the Deeding chin is a son of the presi dent of the company and the man with the chin that projects Is merely work ing his way up from the bottom 1 should be inclined to feel that physiog nomy would not be of vast import ince." EVERYBODY DOING IT! DOING WHAT? TAKING Pivoted to the center is a revolving handle resembling a miniature motor man's controller, with a little cud in one end to hold the kernel and a spring cap to keep it in place and press it against the grater plate. The nutmeg is placed in this cap and the handle turned until the desired amount is ground off, the operation being much speedier than when kernel has to be rubbed across the grater by hand. Furthermore, the hand method results in waste, as after the nutmeg has been ground so small that it can not be scraped without scraping the fingers as well, it has heretofore had to be thrown away. -not tea -not coffee Ifs the most de lightful Breakfast Drink you ever tasted and the most wholesome and invigorating.
