In Korea it has been a cust tom from olden times to keep various l - sizes of coffins in the chosen (long t life) palace, and to apply a new coat ] of lacquer twice each year, in spring s and autumun. The strains of "The Star-Spangled 'l Hanner." sung in an excellent Italian j translation, can now be heard throughJ out Italy. A year ago the song was f a little-known foreign anthem. Today it is part of the traditional music of f the people. The*vlsitor hears it sung • by peasants in remote parts of Cala- ‘ bria. It is a part of the exercises in [ the schools. A perfoming animal often has a greater earning capacity than a sue- , cessful man of business. The first • kangaroo to enter the boxing ring in ‘ America earned a sum in five years that allowed himself and his owner to retire from the limelight and spend : the rest of their lives in peace and ' quiet. This was the first of a long line of pugilistic kangaroos who “made" their masters. Much of the success of Hagenbeck's Wonder Zoo at Olympia a few years back was undoubtedly due to the engagement of Max and Moritza, the “human apes.” For that tired feeling eat apples and see how soon you feel refreshed. niro'lntinnf ln<r tho aiiVYllna anirlc

The idea is to loan money on farms for longer periods than is the existing practice now. as authorized under the I Federal Farm Loan Act. effective .July, 1916. J This law makes it possible for the farmers to make money by borrowI ing money. It is the intention to 1 place money within the reach of the farmer on such terms as to convert the farm mortgage into a source of profit. The money may be loaned you to buy land for agricultural purposes, to purchase equipment, such as teams, machinery, live stock, to provide beneficial improvements, structure, tiling. drainage, fencing, buildings, etc. The money is loaned on the "amort-ization-plan” which means the paying off of the irfdebtednes by installments of a fixed amount, throughout a period of years. As an example—On a loan of SI.OOO payment would be S7O a year, which payment applies upon interest and principal, paying off loan in 33 years. Upon a Ten Thousand Dollar loan, tjie payment each year would be S7OO. Borrower may pay off part or all of loan after five years. Loans made up to one-half of the value of the land and 20 per cent of the insurable value of the improvement. NO COMMISSION—LOANS MADE TO BORROWER AT COST. No restrictions are placed on the use of the money you borrow and your affairs are not subject to the scrutiny of others. You are not worried about a renewal, not the trouble and expense of one You have no uncertainty about interest rates. You have liberal prepayment privileges after five years. You do not tie up yourself or your land. | Eevery payment you make reduces your principle as well as the interest, so that at the expiration of the loan the entire debt has been discharged.

Such an opportunity as this should give courage to an enterprising farm'er to buy more land, to improve 'his farm and live stock and have the use and profits therefrom.

Murn Home When Trying to Exterminate Squirrel. Chico, Cal.—Fully prepared to ;; write a testimonial to the destroying qualities of a squirrel I; ; exterminator, Mr. and Mrs. D. i Hurspeth here mourn the loss . of their home today. Here's how it happened: A squirrel had tunneled nnder : their home and the exterminator was pm chased. It was poured : Into the hole, but it was an inflammable liquid. An oil tank ' and smudge pots caught fire : and the house burned to the > ground. It Is not known what happened ; : to the squirrel. RAT MENACESIEALTH Costs the United States SIBO,000,000 a Year for Support. Publie Health Service Urges That Measures Be Taken to Destroy Them. Washington.—You pay one-half of , one cent every day for the support and sustenance of a brown rat, rcI cording to figures compiled by the United States public health service. There is one rat, nt least, for every person in the United States. This estimate is considered conservative, but I coincides with that for Great Britain I ,1 T.. — J J _ _.(4k .. ..»1, ~wl

and Ireland, and also with authoritative figures for Denmark. France and Germany. The annual upkeep per rodent was computed by the same authorities as SI.BO In Great Britain, $1.20 in Denmark, and $1 in Frame. ’ The depredations In this country will '■ very probably exceed the estimate for I Great Britain. One-half a cent a day Is considered conservative, but even on this computation, It costs the United States $180,000,000 a year to support its rat population. It Is because of this terrific economic loss and the additional fact that rats are a constant menace to the public health that the public health service has issued a warning to the country to take the necessary measures to destroy them. There are three kinds of rats Included in the survey In this country —th" Norway or brown rat, the black rat. and Alexandrian rat. The Norway rat. larger and more ferocious than the others, has pretty generally killed them off, and today the black rat and the Alexandrian rnt are seldom found except In seaports. The brown or Norway rat, since he discovered America, has literally blazed a trail across the continent. Today it is conservatively estimated that there are at least one rat for every dweller In the cnies. and on the farm there are at least three rats for every person. None of thes« rats Is native to the United States. Os many measures suggested for destroying the rat, the public health service advocates one as most effective. It Is rat-proofing the buildings so that rats cannot get in for food, thereby starving them to death.
