TTH ST, A PLAGUE OF SNAKES, Farm Landa Infested With the Ven omous Creatures-Some Sea- sonable Snake Literature. Philadelphia Times, There are scores of oracles of Ches- ter county, but not one of them can account for the extraordinary number of snakes that infest that part of the state this year. Copporheads, vipers and black-snakes are as numerous as blackberries, and, what is most re- markable, they at onco attack instead of retreating from those who disturb them. For many years the country for miles around the falls of French Creek, and even across the Montgom- ery county line, has boen infested with venomous raptiles, and in some cases death has resulted from their at- tacks, For weeka past scores of farmers go to their work armed with shotguns, So numerous are the snakes along the banka of French creek that chero are many places through which no native could be induced to walk at night, On the farm of David Schweiier the snakes were 8o numerous that his har- vest hands refused to work, and six of them left in a body, and the proprie- tor of tho farm shot eleven black- snakee, five copperheads and three vipers on his plantation one Sunday morning in July. A rocky little ravine that makes in- to French Creek a short . distance be low the Big Chester Pike has long been known as a great resort for snakes, and on Thursday last Samuel Lowry and three other men invaded the place and dug a hole five feet deep in what was believed to be the conter of the den. Before the hole was finished Lowry shot 13 snakce, five of which were copperheads. Ten pounds of giant powder were then sunk in the hole and after being well tamped the pit was filled up and the fuse lighted. Tous of rock and earth were thrown up, and the debris was covered with writhing pieces of reptiles that had been killed. It is believed that more than a hundred black snakes, copper- heads, highland vipers and water suakes were killed by the explosion Sivco wheat harvest began Samuel Eiliott of South Coventry township has kilied 38 snakes, mostly copper- heeds, on his farm, and still the place is 8o infes ed that i% is not safe to cross it unarmed. Oane day last week, when Mr. Eiliott was harvesting oats, he disturbed a huge blicksnake, Accustomed as he is to meeting snakes unexpectedly, the great size of this one startled him, and he ran for his shotgun. The reptile at once gave chase, but Mr. Elliott succeeded in reaching the gun and mounting a rail fence befors the snake got up. When the snake came to the fence it .| the vly, over A.

This snake is said to have been five fect nine inches long and thicker than a man’s arm, In rocky places in Coventry town- ship it is no uncommon thing to see 20 or 30 copperheads, each from two to two and a half feet long, basking in the sun and showing fight when ap. proached by man. G. R. Mishler had a field of wheat to harvest and the reaper decapitated teven snakes in cutting two swathes around the field. The number of snakes fright ened the horses so that it was found impossible to drive them up to the standing grein. The grain had to be cradled, but the two farm hands who did it exacted double wages for the work on account of the snukes, When the uncut grein was reduced to about half an acre it was alive with snakes and the workmen killed 17 in less than an hour. John Miller has killed 20 copperheads and biacksnakes or his farm in Coventry township this sum- mer and the placs is still infested. Dy after day John Houseman's young poultry disappeared and never came back. He could not account for it until last Friday, when hearing an unueaal fluttering in a young turkey coop he ran thero and saw @ bluck- snake, about three feet long, crawl out of the coop with a young turkey in its meuth, The snake dropped the bird on the ground, and, to Mr. House- man's astonishment, went back into the cocp In the meantime three much larger snakes, which were c¢iled near by, made a rush for the corpss of the little turkey. There was another flutter in the coop, and oub came the small snake on the ground, Tae little snake, which waa just able to wriggle itself between the slats of the coop, was evidently catching a supper for snakes, whic) were tro big to squeeze their way into the hutch Mr. Houseman killed two of the snakes, and the others made off 1o- ward a clumb of timber two or three hundred yards behind the barn, The wan followed and saw them disapboar in a hollow sycamore log. On the following wmorning M Houscman poured coal oil over one end of the log and set fire to it, planting himself at the other end with a shot-gun, in- tending to kill the snakes when they were driven out, He did not have to wnlllnng, for ten minutes afier the fire started » huge snake came pitching out of the tres trunk. The hunter fired and killed it, and did the same for another reptile that appeared a moment later. That emptied his gun, and he not prepared for what followed ulmost instantly, when big snakes and little enakes, black- suakes, copperheads, and vipers poured out of the log in & stream that fairly made his hair raise. The ground for many yards around was literally covered with crawling rep- tiles, a dozen of which charged on the nearly petrified Houseman, This brought him to his senses, and he made a beeline for home. The farmer declares that there were more than & hundred snakes in that log, and he feels like kicking himself be. cause he did not fire the logat bo h ends and in the middle. One of the snake: that he killed he says was ex- actly six feet long. The London Lancet.

Al though this company makes every kind of wire work, its chief product for the last years has been barbed fence wire and wire bands for baling cotton and hay. The raw material used by the company in the manufac ture of these articles is sieel wire rods, which, as the law now stands, are sub joct to a duty of 30 per cent ad valo- rem. The McKinley bill, which is the basia of the senate’s amendment o the house revenuo bill, proposed to raise the duty on steol wire rods to 2} conts a pound, which would be about 120 por cent instead of 30, as now. Itis also proposed to raise the duty on cotton and hay bands. When tho MeKinley proposition appeared in the senate in the form of an amendment to the revenue bill it is a suggostive fact that the duty on bands was raised, while the duty on wire rods was left onchanged st 50 per cent Thus it will be seen that Mr. Hoar's favorite constituents gets the bonefis of an iucreased duty on their product, while their raw material is still pro- curably by them at a rate which is utterly unprotective. The interests of the Washburn & Moen company— Mr. Hoar's constituents—were thus guarded ac both ends, The enormous valuo of this little attention to their interests will be scen when it is known that the Washburn & Moen company will produce this year at least 40 000 tons of barbed fence wire, ana that the wholo consumption is estimated at loast 60,000 tons in all, for which, as owners of the pateats thny got o roy- alty of 12 50 por ton in addition to the enormous profits incident to get- ting their raw material at 30 per cent duty and sel ing it in the form of wire producted by a 756 per cent duty. This is the price which the farmers of the country are paying to Mr. Hoar's constituents; and this explains why even the proposition to reduce the tariff all around only 10 per cent was 80 stoutly rosisted by Mr, Hoar, be- cause it would only reduce the raw material which this company huys 3 per cont, while it would take 7} per cent off the finished product, which they sell to the farmers. This is an- other case like that of the Besscmer Steel works, whero the profits to the capitalists aro made, by a cunning arrangement of the tariff, so great that they exceed the whole amount earned by the werkmen enguged in it.

An incandecent iight 18 now produced by a lamp re cently brought out in Eogland, and which is thus descrbed: Broadly stat ed, this light may be said to bea Bun- sen burner with a gauze cap over it, in that the light is the result of the combustion of gas and of air in com- bination. The details, however, are considerably modified and improved as against the ordinary Bunsen burner. In the first place, part of the air is supplied to the now light under pres suro, and this induces a current which supolies the remainder; and, in the next place, the flamo is surroun- ded by, or rather absorbed into, a plat- fnum wire gauze, the combination producing a remarkably brilliant in- candescent light, The burner consists of two pipes—one for the supply of air at a pressure suflicient to balance a six wnch column of water, and the other for the gas, which is conducted from the meter in thoordinary way. On the top of the burner is a cap about two inches high and galf an inch in diame- ter, formed of platinum wire gauze of very fine mesit. The air under pres- sure is delivered from an inner tube, opening into a large one near the (up of the burner, with an opening at its lower end. When the air is turned on an induced upper current is produced, and gas being admittod at the same timo, the two combina and pass into the platinum cap, Upom the mixture being ignited, the capina fow sec- onds gives forth a brilhant incande- cont glow of high illuminating power. The combined air and gas is oted upon by the intense heat of the wire g w2y that perfect combustion is effec ted (asshown by the perfectly clean condition of a polished silver plate af- ter having been held over the burner until it was highly heated), a brilliant light, accompanied by only a moder- ate amount of heat, being the result. The light is petfectly steady, of great penetrative power, and is stated to cost much less than that produced by the ordinary gas burner and with pure gas.

Wo are glad to note that the num- ber of farmers who break the wheat ground just as soon us they can get tho harvested grain threshed or into the barn is rapidly growing., Last year the late sown wheat made an ex- cellent yield, the late fall and early winter favoring growth. It will not be safo for the slow conches to base a rulo of action on that exceptional fall and winter. Nine years out of ten it will bo found that he who plows early will do it at less cost and reap a heavier crop than he who takes it easy and says there is time enough for wheat, The extremely wet weather of the first six months of this year has made the ground very hard, and already some farmers are complaining that their land is hard to plow. If we should have a few days of dry, hot weather, the farmer will need three horses to do what now two can do. In breaking wheat land, when the clods dry quickly under a hot sun, the roller and harrow will make little impres sion. Lot tho plowing for wheat aud barley be done as soon as possible and rolled down. If beiween this and the middle of September the ground can be harrowed often enough to keop down all weeds and promote sprout- ing of volunteer grain, tho chauces or & haudsome whest cxop will bo in- crenscd, Early plowing for whoat and barley i to be encouraged, becanse it enables the farmer to better clean hig land Tho woods which spring up after har- vest will have the seeds o far ad vanced by the last of August or first ot Septembor, it not disturbed, as to seed the Ld and wake a crop of woeds doubly sure nexs season. A solid seed bed is of fivst import- anes in making a good crop of wheat, On top of this seed bed wo want a perfeet muleh of woll pulverizod soil. This well worked surface soil has been erriched by the action of the sunlight aud atmosphere, or heat and moisture, which have produced the chemical action requisite to the pre- paration of plant food, The old theory of fallow has been improved upon hy the modern meth- ods of complote pulverization of the so0il where the rootlets are to feed, Meollowness or firmnees of the coil may bo obwined oven wt & lato plow- ing, if the weather favors, But even thon wo have only one of the coudi- tions of a perfect sced bed There is & cortain cowpactness of soil which favors the readisot capillary action, There is, too, such a coarse condition, that quickly dries because there can be littie or no cupillury ac- tion to counteracy gravity. And such is the condition of the reed bed on re- cently plowed land, When on nuch a #eed bed the wheat germinates and throws out the fine roots they perish for want of pasture, or from sudden changes from dry to wet or cold to hot, had asked the reporter, woman-like, “‘What for you wantee him{" and re- ceived a satisfactory answer, Wah g uppearcd from behind a parti- tion, followed by his children, The children were chubby-faced, and showed no signs of shyness.
