They were housed in a heavy pasteboard' container, sub divided into four comfortable com partments, with 25 chicks to each compartment. While waiting the afternoon train for St. Matthews a rat entered three of the compart ments and destroyed 75 of the chicks. The entrance was a neat piece of work and the inner en trances from one cel Ito the other were equally as neat. The rat elim inated the usual chaff from his gnawings and seemed to tear the pasteboard in big shreds, leaving a well-formed and almost perfect cir cle. He does business in the modern way, prompted no doubt by the thought that since he was depriv ing Mr. Raysor of three-fourths of his fine chicks he would spare him the trouble of sweeping out the trash.
