One of the Riverside grammar school teachers picked up the other night in the middle of Mechanic street a little turtle the size of a penny, struggling along bravely in the dust. He was one of the Chelonfang, and contrary to popular be- lief he would rather hang round the gar- den where he was born than to be kept in a bowl of watbr with only a little cork raft to'sit on, The advancing season is thus recorded in the fact that turtles have already laid their eggs and the spry little shelibacks are out. The experience s recalled of two Jewett Oity men who In early June, 1900, were searching on the east shore of Tad- pole pond for a rars haberneria when they ecame upon great quantities of turtle egg shells. The next day was given over to a fuller investigation, when 80 places were ‘counted showing evidence of rob- Deries of the turtles’ nests by skunks and woodchucks. All sor{s of turtles come out of Tadpole pond about now and deposit thelr eggs in the sand. and there they are left in the warm sun to be hatched in nature's incubator. rubber boot with eges from one nest un- dér o stone that the' marauding skunks oy Bot. get at.
