Country Home and Town louse Fable Bu Foundation in Fact. The fable 0! the country mouse and the town mouse has a lounultiun in tact. Mice occasionally migrate in large num- bers when tood grows scarce, and travel considerable distances to iresn houses. farmers m a part of Perthslnre had a good reason to become aware of this tact when, a couple of years ago, vast warm: ot mice invaded their cornfield: at harvest tune. But the mouse only travels when it has to. The rat, on the contrary, seems to take a yearly outing, in very much the same fashion as do human beings. Rats are the most migratory creatures in the world. Troops of rats leave the towns at the end of summer and spend a month or two in the country, appar- ently in order to enjoy the change of food which the country affords at that time of the year in the way of fresh fruit and grain.
