Winter Increases Destruction

nually destroy as much food in
the United States as one out of
every 25 farms produce. Contam
ination of grain by rodent drop
pings, hairs and urine has cost
the farmer thousands of dollars
through down-grading from grain
suitable for human food to that
usable only as animal feed.
Mouse contamination of grain is
increasingly becoming important
in many areas where rat popula
tions have been drastically re
duced and the mouse population
is growing. Such are the alarm
ing, but true statistics furnished
by the United States Fish and
Wildlife Service and compiled in
a brochure published by the Wis
consin Alumni Research Founda
tion of Madison, Wisconsin.
It is obvious in the face of facts
available that some constructive
action must be taken to fight an
enemy that last year alone de
stroyed the production of more
than 100,000 farms enough to
feed 1 person out of every 15!
Clean grain means money in the
fanner's pocket.
Today the farmer is not as
helpless in the face of rat menace
as he was ton years ago. In ad
dition to the traditional defensive
measures, he can now actively
fight this menace with the proven,
easy-to-u;? rat and mouo ltil'er.
warfarin. Discovered in the !;:',(,-
ratories of Professor Karl Paul
Link of the University of Wiscon
sin, warfarin was patented by
the Wisconsin Alumni Research
Foundation.
Warfarin kills rodents by thin
ning their blood until they die of
internal hemorrhage, over a peri
od of 5 to 14 days. It is not a
"quick kill" poison and there is
no bait shyness. The rodents sim
ply eat warfarin containing baits
until they die.
Warfarin is comparatively safe
when there are children about,
because it is slow acting and
usually mixed with unappetizing
cereal baits to be fed to the rats
and mice.
The entire community, work
ing together, can win the war
against rodents, a campaign that
is bound to add up to a cleaner
neighborhood, a safer community
and the prevention of waste.
A few basic steps to remember
in personally fighting this enemy
are to keep garbage and refuse
containers tightly covered, rat
proof buildings by closing all
holes in exterior walls, and make
use of any of the rodenticides
containing warfarin, available
under various trade names in
stores throughout the country.

grounds from the mill 3000 feet
of 2 by 10s for calf, cow and
bucking chutes. Papineau Bros
set up the A frames, Howard and
Bruce pulled out short posts, put
In long ones and hung two of
the chute gates.
The auction sale committee
has set the date of the sale for
April 26 at the fair grounds. The
requested delivery date would
start two weeks prior for every
thing but livestock or poultry. If
you can make out a listing of
the things you plan to get rid
of and give it to Herman Green,
Roioe Fulleton, Archie or Johnnie
Eubanks, they could get together
and make out a list of leaders
for advertising.
The club felt due to the size of
the grounds and the large num
ber of participants that it would
be unwise to invite more than
one club at a time. It was also
approved that any member
whose dues was not received by
April 1 would have to be voted
on for reinstatement.
To those who are using or mis
using the barn and corrals and
haven't some place else to take
your stock in a hurry, it would
be very wise to quit abusing the
priviledge you now have, for
this day the fair board has not
ified the club that unless the
barn is kept clean and the litter
piled out by the trees so it can
be hauled, and feeding stopped
along the fence which creates a
fire hazard when dry, the barn
will be taken back and padlock-.
