Plea for Eradication.
(By D. E. LANTZ.)
Short-tailed field mice are commonly
known as meadow mice, pine mice and
moles; locally as bear mice, buck
tailed mice or black mice. The term
Includes a large number of closely re
lated species widely distributed over
the northern hemisphere.
The runs of meadow mice are main'
ly on the surface of the ground under
grass, leaves, weeds, brush, boards,
snow or other sheltering litter. They
are hollowed out by the animals
claws'and worn hard and smooth by
being frequently traversed.
Meadow mice are injurious to most
crops. They destroy grass in mean-
ows and pastures; cut down grain, clo-

THE CHARM
OF MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi
cal Health.
33
The experience of Motherhood is a try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or un
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the experi
ence with an organism unfitted for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her Bystem has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and a distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed child-birth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unezplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerveB and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
ple time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Finkham's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.
In many homes
once childless there
are now children be
cause of the fact
that Lydia E. Pink
barn's Vegetable
Compound makes
women normal,
bealthy and strong.

especially harmful to trees and shrub

When presont even in ordinary num
bers meadow mice cause serious in
jury to orchards and nurseries. Their
attacks on trees are often made in
winter under cover of snow, but they
may occur at any season u&der shel
ter of growing vegetation or dry litter.
The animals have been known almost
totally to destroy large nurseries of
young apple trees.
Older orchard trees are sometimes
killed by mice. In Kansas the writer
saw hundreds of apple trees, eight to
ten years planted and four to six
inches in diameter, completely girdled
by these pests. The list of cultivated
treeB and shrubs injured by these ani
mals includes nearly all those grown
by the horticulturist.
Pine mice Inhabit chiefly forested
regions and are unknown on the open
plains. Ordinarily they live in the
woods, but are fond of old pastures or
lands not frequently cultivated.
Their harmful activities include the
destruction of potatoes, sweet pota
toes, bulbs, shrubbery and trees.
In the eastern part of the United
States pine mice do more damage to
Baited Guillotine Trap,
orchards than do meadow mice, partly
because their work is undiscovered
until trees begin to die.
Methods of destroying field mice or
holding them in check by trapping and
poisoning are equally applicable to
meadow mice and pine mice.
If mice are present in small num
bers, as is often the caBe in lawns, gar
dens or seedbeds, they may readily
be caught in strong mouse traps of the
guillotine type. These should be bait
ed with oatmeal or other grain, or may
be set in the mouse runs without bait
On larger areas where mice are
abundant, poisoning is the quickest
means of destroying them, and even
on small areas it has advantages over
travnliuc.
