Think of what it means. Rats and mice destroy more than 200,000 men : ctii cam, or in debars and cents amounting to two hundred miUon dollii-f..

They are very cunning, however, and it is not alwaiy.s eay to clear them frojn the premises by trapp ing. In fact It it often iin))sible wlU re food is abundant but trapp ing is the. most effw.-l.ive way of deal ing with them and, if followed ier rtisten'tly, will eventually destroy a gTaC number. It is import ant to remeniiber, however, that one trap will not do where dozens are needed -vr II. Jeter. BKITISH MAKE FURTHEK GAIN WEST OF CAMBRAI (Continued From Page 1.)

The site of the ancient Mlzpah, some eight miles went of Jerusalem, was caried by storm. Northwest of the city the British were still closer, but their mount el troops near Belt Unia in this sector were forced hack by land was attempting to tow hr. i MONDAY After hard fighting, in which the troojpjs came into hand-to-hand con tact with viarying re suits, Field Mar shal Hiig's forces now are in pos session of the town of Bourlon and the greater part of the Bourlon wood, west of Ca moral, giving them a dom inating position over the much sought for railroad center and the surrounding country.

Ever slttcA-th Jttach the Uimfipis had tenaeiouisly dlpUL&J every Inch of ground, realizing that with the Ijalll of Bourlon amd the wooded heights their tenure of Cambrai would be seriously menaced. The northeasterly portion of the wood aptarently now is the sole re maining port of it that is still in Ger man hands and being only about three and a half miles distant from Cambrai, the Germans are doing their utmost to hold it, and even to drive bitiek the British who have gained a footing there. ; The army of the German crown prince has not igliven up Its efforts to overcome the siiccess of the French troops laisit week northwest of Ithi ims, where the gradual incur sions into the Gennjan line are threatening Laon. Here the Ger mans again have mUKle two violent attacks, but their efforts brought them, hiafc been te rule : recently, nothing more than repulse and the additional toss of numerous men. SinislurXv- in the region of Verdun the Gel mans hve been worsted in the attacks against General Pet aln's front,: In the Italian theateir the troops of General Diaz are more than holding their own awuist the savage at tacks of the Austro-Gennans from the region of Lake Garcia, eastward to the upper reaches of the Piave river. After last week's severe re pulses with .' heavy casualties in the Invaders have switched thfir main offensive to the AsiagD plateau sec tor, but here also they have been held by the I tailUia without the gain of a yard of ground. Fur the first time in sevral weeks there has been activity on the north ern Russian froat and notwithstand ing the uncertain political conditions in Perograd and other parts of the country, the Russians are holding their positions atgainst the Germans. Near Jacobetadt the German artil lery opened a strong bom bard mint against the Russians, who replied in turn.
