Long Prairie .Argus.—Albert
(>rth of Germania town was fined
$15 for keeping his boy out of
school. There have been several
of these cases but none have
n reported in the papers
and some parents have g*ot tlie
idea that they can keep their
children out of school when they
are within the s< liool aye limit.
There is a law compelling the
parents to sent their childr, n
to school and the authorities
are endeavoring to enforce this
law.

WORTH TRYING
Put seven inches of water in
a tub or barrel and set a brick
on end in the center. Cover the
top of tub with a sheet of stout
paper and fasten it securely with
a hoop or string, then spread
several pieces of bacon rind on
the paper and give the rats a
feast. After a few free lunches
have established the popularity
of the place cut some slits in the
paper through which a rat can
fall. The first rat that goes
through will crawl up on the
brick and set up such a squeal
ing that others will quickly
follow. It is said that in one
factory 300 rats were caught in
a single night by this device.
