V 0 Professional Mouse-Proofing Said Best Way To Check Home By United Press International J This is a good time to begin planning how to de-mouse your house. Many of us have been Dis neyed into believeing mice are humorous, harmless little crea tures concerned only with kid- die clubs, talking ducks and goofy dogs. But the hard cold truth is that mice in America this year will cause nearly one billion dollars damage. In additon, there is the unknown cost of mouse-born diseases such as typhus, infectious jaundice, amebiasis, and a mysterious modern disease rickettsial pox, a fever accompanied by severe headache and a rash. For every mouse in your house you pay $10 a year. A house mouse may trim its teeth by gnawing a hole in your door or wall, or on the leg of a chair. Books, clothing, papers and insulation may be damaged by female mice seek ing nesting material. Multiply Rapidly Mice mature within three months of birth. A mature mouse can bear as many as 120 offspring a year. This means that one pair of mice left unmolested in your home might multiply several hun dred times in 12 months. A cat is not the answer to the mouse problem. Ordinari ly cats serve omy to frighten mice into hiding. Professional mouse-proofing is the quickest way to obtain protection for your home. However, this is sometimes ex pensive and, in small towns, often not available. Because of this, such experts as John Beck, a Department of Agriculture representative stationed at Ohio State Uni versity, suggest it is more practical for each family to take steps to protect its own home. Good housekeeping is the . first step. Mice thrive on filth. Make sure food is not left in the open and that scraps are placed in covered containers or garbage disposals. Keep Basement Clean Particular care should be taken to keep the basement clean. -Proper lighting .will eliminate dark corners and other hiding places. Proper janitor service and careful attention to garbage disposal is important. Faulty incinerators in basements at Kew Gardens, N.Y., caused a dangerous rickettsial pox, epidemic in 1947 which infest-' ed a three-block area. All openings must be closed. Experts say mice are so plas- WHS BROS. INSTANT COFFEE 79 six OUNCE JAR STRAUSS icoic mams TENDER SHOULDERS WE WILL SLICE FREE!

Check Openings Pipes and wires should be checked at the point where they enter your house. Cement openings around them or cov- er holes with a strong wire screen called hardware cloth. Fit basement drainage pipes with tight covers. Sills should be put under doors and win dows so mice cannot squeeze under them. With all sources oi entry closed, you're safe from out side mice, and ready to begin eliminating any that have al ready set up housekeeping in your home. This is a relatively easy job. Mice spend their lives ordinarily in an area no larger than 15-feet in diameter. They usually locate in cupboards, j closets, or behind stoves and refrigerators. Lifective placing of snap traps and poison tn these areas I will ria your nome oi roaenxs. Traps cheap enough so that you can buy a dozen with out great expense are most effective when placed in series of three or more. Speed and intelligence will ofen enable a mouse to evade a single trap. Enlarges Surface Adding a two-inch square of corrugated cardboard to trap triggers will enlarge the trap ping surface and double the effectiveness of traps. Use fresh bait. Smear pea nut butter over the trap or put down a chunk of chocolate wih nuts. Sprinkle oats over the bait to make ij more at tractive. Vary the bait so mice do not learn to associate danger with the smell of a particular food. This is easy, since mice like most foods that humans eat. Arsenic and strychnine are quick killers. But because chil dren or pets may unwittingly eat baited food, these poisons should only be used by pro fessional exterminators. For the average homeown er, it's safer to use Warfarin, Pival, Fumarin, or D-Con. These are sold at drugstores. They are called anticoagulant poisons because they kill by preventing normal blood clot ting. Feed Pets Well To cut down chances of sec ondary poisoning, pets should i be well-wed. Care should be J taken to make the bait as un attractive as possible for cats and dogs. Never use meat as c CHOICE MEATS Sliced Fancy 2 lb. ib. ib.

Mitchell predicts employment will in crease to the point where some areas will have definite labor shortages by the end of the year. "All the economic indica tors indicate that we are on ! the upswing." he said in a tel- evision interview Wednesday.

Charles Snitow, who pro duces a number of trade fairs, said increased trade not only brings money into a country's coffers, but also builds good will and trust between it and other nations. ' , "We, as Americans, have come to realize that world trade is in fact an economic denominator among all na tions," Snitow said.

"The fair has become the greatest single market place for foreign goods in the West ern Hemisphere," Snitow said. "At the fair, buyers for Ameri can industry can find every thing from drill presses and sewing machines to flowers and food." In addition, many com panies at the fair also place great stress on tourism. Some of them have built elaborate exhibits ranging from an Oriental temple to a tropical island. 386.000 Attracted More than 386,000 persons attended last year's show dur ing the five days of public ad mission. kick Snitow said he got a (P' . .
