Rat Kitlling Arouses Interest
Teh announcement of a .campaign to destroy thousands of rats in Noble County has aroused great interest in the project, according to County Agent M. A. Nye. Plans for the activity call for.the distribution of a prepared red squill bait at cost on November 5 . Stores and other business places, where the bait will be available, have offered their free services as an aid to the campaign. o In urging. people to join the rat war, Mr. Nye says that the. prepared: poisoned -bait lis relatively harmless to animals except rats. Rats.move from one building to another and from farm to.farm. Hence, 'as he points out, placing the poisoned bait in all infested.buildings on the.same day is the best way to prevent their migration. : People are urged to use other methods of control between now aad the date of the campaign, Tidying yards, useing wire mesh and sheet metal to make feed bins or rooms rat-proof, is advised by U. S. Biological Survey experts, who are ¢Oe operating with County Agent Nye, in the Noble County Rat campaign. : - ‘ Red squill rat poison acts as an ametic when taken in dangerous quantities by domestic animals. Rats do not vomit and the red squill causes death within 4 to 24 hours, Approximately 5,000 _farmers . in the middle west report an average loss of $31.00 a year due to rats.

"“For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light. Proving what is acceptable unto = the Lord, And‘ have no fellowship with the unfruit. : fiil works of darkness out rather reprove them. Wherefore he saith, Awake thou-that sleepeést,-and arise fromfflb dead;, and Christ shall give: thee light” (Ephestans:- 6 8; 10, 11, 14 .

lqummm ATTACK HOAX l Farm Youtly 'To Sissh Self, He Admits
. Stanley King, 19 of Whitley county admitted Monday that his story of being slugged by chicken thieves was falses King confessed after a half hour's questioning Monday
moming: at the Linvill Memorial hospital at Columbia City, where he has been a patient since the happenings a week ago last Monday. King told officers that he inflicted the scalp wounds with his own pocket knife.

He had been' living alone since the death of his foster mother, Mrs. Harcinus Leaman, last month. The lad cut deop-‘ er than he had expected and lost nearly two quarts of blood.

Kooken' of the state police and State Detective EA Wose before he finally admitted to state officers and Sheriff El Sauers that his story was a hoax.
The story told by King was first doubted last, week when the officers found no trace of shot gun pellet marks where King said he shot. He told officers, however, that he did shoot the gun twice before -cutting his head. The sheriff was unable to find any tracks except those made by King when he crossed the corn field to the home of a neigh. bor.
King said that he was sorry for ull the excitement in the neighborhood, caused by his story. An orPhan boy, he was taken silx years ago by Mrs. Leaman,

Buying Textiles and Clothing.
The selection of textile fabries for the home has always been the homemakers task. For many years materials were more or less standarized and women knew their names and characteristics. The advance made in recent years in weaving, dyeing, and finishing of materials, however, has gone far ahead of the consumer's ability to- distinguish what she wants and needs, She finds herself in need of some information to help her to made wise selection. Her experience is not enough.
On Friday, October 15th beginning at 9:30 a. m. Examination Room Court House, Albion Noble County Home Division Project Leaders will meet in their fifth and final meeting for 1937. Miss Meta E. Martin, Purdue Home Economics Department will be present for this final day of instruction. The study of the group this year has been “Wise use of family Income.”
