THE LIVERPOOL RAT VIRUS.
The Shooting Times and British Sports- man has recently been making some triale of the Liverpool Rat Virus, prepared by Messre Evans, Sons, Lescher, and Wobb, Ltd., of Hanover-street, Liverpool. This is not a poison in the ordinary sense of the term, but is a bacteriologfcal culture grown on the surface of nutrient jelly, which, when mixed with food, 'is readily eaten by rats and mice, and produces in them a disease which is fatal in from seven to 14 days, and which spreads from animal to animal, It is perfectly harmless to man and domestic awimals, and the hody of a raf which has died from the disease will not impart the same to any other animal except those of its own raco. It is very easily prepared for use, and is fed to the vermin upon pieces of bread or in corn Hosked in the dilution.
