Those of you who have keot

These cold winter days make
rats seek shelter and look for
something to eat. That is the
reason that many of you have
seen more rat damage lately.
Buildings full of trash and
grain bins that are open and ac
cessible are sure to invite rat
infestation.
Now is the time, while rats are
hungry, to make a killing. First
of all though, trash should be
cleaned up around farm build
ings and feed bins made rat
proof. After this is done the rats
will be hungrier still and they
can be poisoned more easily.
Red Squill is the recommend
ed rat poison to use. It can be
mixed with grain, dry bread
crumbs, breakfast cereal, corn
meal, meats or even sliced ap
ples or carrots.

Secretary Newbry
Cites Six Pointers
For Winter Drivi
Six "hot" tips on safe driving
in the kind of weather that has
been plaguing Oregon motorists
recently are contained in a leaf
let now being distributed by hts
office in an effort to center at
tention on the dangers of slippery
highways, Secretary of State Earl
T. Newbry has announced.
"Freezing weather is invariably
accompanied by a wave of 'skid
ding' mishaps, most of them the
result of unwariness or lack of
know-how," Newbry declared.
The leaflet, "Winter Winners,"
was prepared by the National
Committee on Winter Driving
Hazards. Results of numerous
studies have been boiled down to
simple safety suggestions design
ed to help the average driver rec
ognize and cope with the dangers
of rain, sleet, or snow.
In an effort to reach all who
need reminders, Newbry suggest
ed careful attention to the fol
lowing pointers:
1. Get the "feel" of the road
before you start out by trying
your brakes while driving slowly
and away from traffic.
2. Adjust speed to road and
weather conditions. Slow down
on wet, snowy and icy roads so
you can stop when you have to.
. Use tire chains on ice and
snow. They cut down braking dis
tances as much as 40 to 50 per
cent. Not a cure-all for winter
accidents, but they will help a
careful driver.

5. When you have to stop,
pump your brakes up and down
jamming them on may lock
them and throw your car into a
skid.
6. Follow other vehicles at a
safe distance remember it takes
from three to twelve times as
long to stop on snow and ice as
it does on dry concrete.

State gasoline taxes on Novem.
ber sales were $1,867,401.53, of
hich about 13 percent is norm-
Uy refunded to non-highway
users. Revenue from license fees
is more than $1,700,000 below
last year despite the increase In
registration. This is due to the
change in the method of licens
ing commercial vehicles, Newbry
explained. Trucks are now being
taxed on the basis of road use.
