TM 0-'1,OIOIT RATS
• TERRIFY W. ENGLAND
The 'border country b'ftween Eng-
land and Wales is ,threatened with a
plague of ntus'k rats.
1&t is said 'that the effects may he as
serious as those'of (Australia's rab-
bit ,plague„
The danger began when .an ex4Can-
a'dian trapper started a farm in the
middle of Shropshire for breeding
musk rats, .which are valuable for
their .fur known as - musquash,
A number off the rats escaped, de-
spite
precautions- which had satisfied
every one.
It was 'only comparatively few of
the hundreds of lmusk rats at' the farm
that escaped, but they breed so pro-
lifically that now thousands are at
The farm was closed by law—the
Destructive Imported Animals Act,
passed on May ;1, • which makes the
keeping of musk rats illegal.
Now the trapper farmer is living in
a tent hon the banks of the Severn,
from which 41e directs the. war on the
rats.
A number of expert trappers are
working with him. Some of them have
been brought from .Central Europe
by the' English govern'men't.
Digging, shooting, gassing, and
trapping are 'being used to extermin-
ate the'rats.
Musk rats eat great quantities of
young 'crops, egg's,' grain, and young
fish, and they do tremendous damage
by burrowing in, dykes'built 'to' keep
'back flood' water.
Already the 'banks .of the River Se-
vern have been found- riddled', in
places.
Last week `a dyke collapsed under
the weight of' a cow,•which was
drowned. Musk rat burrows were
found to be responsiible
The rats have been billed along
thirty miles of the river's banks, and
they have reached Montgo'meryshire.
They :have even been shot in the
streets of Shrewslbury, Every day they
spread further..
They are causing terror to women
and children, for they.sometimes
reach a nose -to -tail -tip length of two
feet.
"Musk rats breed four times be-
tween April and September," the lo-
cal agricultural organiser said. ""They
develop •so`:rapidly that those born in
April have litters in September.
"It is impiossible to say•how many
are at large, but 250 have been,killed
already to my knowledge,
"When it wase proposed to start a
musk rate farm near Shrewsbury, the
Minilstry of 'Agriculture thoroughly
approved. It was welcomed as a new
industry, The'animals were imported
from Canada and Central Europe, and
it was hoped that their valuable .mus-
quash fur•would prove'a sound com-
mercial ,pr

from escaping were 'perfect, 'That

LIBERALS and the PREFERENCE
The Liberal .party is the party of preference. They introduced
it under Laurier in. 1896,97; it expanded throughout the succeeding
years; they laid the foundation of our export trade, not only with the
United Kingdom, but with the world.
When the Conservatives came into office in 1930, the average
duty against British imports was 20 per cent. In two years the rate
was raised to, over 25 per cent. In that two years imports from the
United Kingdom fell from $189,000,000 to $106,000,000, and exports
fell from $283,000,000 to $174,000,000. In two years the exports of
farm products alone declined from $199,000,000 to $110,000,000. Are
those who wrecked our trade with the United Kingdom and the
world now likely to restore it?
The Liberal party welcomes the move of Mr. Bennett, and his,
party, no matter how feeble it may be, towards the restoration of the
trade they have destroyed. The Imperial Conference could have been
made a success had it not been blocked by the rapacity of Canadian
protectionists; they had fattened on the . Canadian consum-
er; they had served Mr. Bennett well; he had no power
to check them. They blocked the development of a real preference.
We received new preferences on only three items—wheat, linseed,
copper. The othe Ytpreferences discussed were in existence before the
Conference met. A' broader plitiy,y�„,,lased on sound economic concep-
tions would have opened the i�`4cked channels ` of trade, restored
markets to the farmer, increaseiibemployment, brought new life to
the nation's trade and commerce.
I appeal to all shades of political opinion for the support of a
policy, in the interest of the nation, but specially helpful to the great
basic industry of agriculture, on which the prosperity of the country
depends. Y
