DALIIART, Tex, Oct. iL—The “rat- Ueanake season” this year tn the Bouth- ‘weet was unusually destructive of life nd was marked by some startling and ramatic incidents. It is estimated that eome Afty deaths from enake bites have ocurred thie season in the plains coun- try and the mountain regions of New Mexico, Arizona and Texas, E. B. Van Veen of the Pinal Mountain istrict tells of @ fight between a rattie- @nake and a gila monster, Bob Henry, on returning from his camp by the Pinal Mountain road, was attracted by the wound of a rattlesnake. Turning, he eaw @ rattler about seven feet long and three feet away, @ gila monster sitting on an ant hill. The snake stood up from the ground higher than @ man's knee in the shape of an elongated 8. ‘The remainder of his body was upon the ground behind him tn a straight line, In addition to rattling, hissing eound fesued from thie mouth. The gila was @anding up as high from the ground as his ahort legs would permit. His tensed attitude indicated that trouble was ahead. Suddenly the snake sprang at the dig Mzard, but tt evaded the stroke by flattening himself on the ground. ‘The snake Grew itself up again and struck and again missed. ‘The third time the snake drew back and struck, Dut the lizard was two inches to the right. The snake staried to draw back for another att when the gila monster made @ lightning-sike plunge, and the next tnatant the dack of the Fattler’s neck was in the bulldog Ja of the eighteen-inch lizard, which was shaking it like a rat. Several times the Mtsard was chrown vertically into the air, and as often it was fed. on the dusty road, with ite feet vainly attempt- ing to find w hold. But the jaws held tight, and in two or three minutes the lay dead on the ground.

After the snake, apparently stunned by the repeated etrokes from the boy's riding whip, retreaced to (ts lair and the boy was preparing to mount his horse, it sneaked out of the hole and bit the boy, and he died @ few hours later.

Bhe is looking forward to the time when the pupils of the rural schools may get the groundwork of sewing and cooking. nearly halt of these rural achoola ar taught by men, her problem becomes all the harder. The men teachers look upon cook- ing as something that has to be done when they go camping, or @ necessary evil when their wives are y and they decide to “batch” for a few days. Almost any man can fry an egg or get shape that they can be taken in- wardly, but when !t comes down to the principles of good food values, proper preparation of food, &c., the average man is at fea.
