Our Animal Industry.

From the report Of the Statistician of
the Agricultural Department for 1888 it
appears that the increased attention to
horse breeding noticeable in past years
still continues, stimulated no doubt to
some extent by the low value of cattle.
There is also an improvement in quality
MS well as an increase in numbers, and
the lnrge English and French breeds
are popular and in demand for dIaught
horses. In the Territories horses are
found to be thrifty and profitable stock
for the range, and the establishment Of
horse ranches has increased their num-
bers. The total increase appears to
lie nearly half million, Of which the
heaviest ratios are III the Territories and
in Texas, Kansas and Nebraska. There
has been slight increase in mules, and
the numbers OF cattle OF all kinds exceed
the estimate of last year by more than
million.
There appears to be slight further
reduction in the number of sheep,
but there are evidences of reassur-
ance in the future of sheep husband
~, and already in some sections a slight
increase is perceptible. In the number
Of swine there is marked increase, am
pie for a meat supply and to aid in the
consumption Of the large corn crop Of
the past year.
On the whole the values of farm ami
mails, ms reported by correspondence;
are but little changed from the returns
of January, 1888, but for the period be-
ginning with 1880 the changes in the
relative values of the different classes
have been very marked. Since that
year the increase in the value of horses
per head has been 81 per cent, and in
mules nearly 30 per cent. Oxen and
other cattle show an increase of per
cent. Sheep alone show a decline i'll
value during the ten-ycar period, begin
ming in 1850 with S2.2l per head, and
averaging now S213, decline Of nearly
4 per cent. In 1880 the average value
of swine per head was returned ut S4.2S,
against 1913 at the present time, with
both higher and lower valuations during
the pcriod.-Neic York World.

Hunting Rattlesnakes for Their Oil

They hunt the rattlesnake every sum-
NOR about Adams, Mass, for his oil,
which IS believed to be cure for dis
eases, and as such is worth 81 an ounce.
But the Yankee hunters native inge-
nuity has hit upon an ingenious method
of capturing the festive RATHER, which
may not be very brave, but is certainly
very effective. Choosing n red-hot sum
mer day in the dry season, the rattle
snake hunters saunter forth into the re-
gion where the reptiles are known to
abound. One man carries a fish-pole,
another sharp scythe. The fish pole has
stout wire attached to it, and there is
an ordinary pickerel hook ON the end of
the wire. Moving cautiously through
the grass so as not to disturb the sleep
ing snake, who is most always found
basking in the warm sun near loose
ledge or rock, one of the men prods his
snakeship more or less gently with the
fish-pole, being careful also to hold the
hook invitingly near to the rattler's
head.
Like any other sleeper suddenly in
te1Tupted, the snake wakes up angry,
makes dart Mt the nearest irritating
object, which is the fsh-hook, and very
accommodatingly allows the sharp tines
to penetrate his jaws. He may rattle
and hiss and wIiggle and writhe and
shoot out ounces OF his deadly venom,
but the poison meets but the vacant air.
The man with the fish-pole holds the
entrapped Iattlsnake ut safe distance,
while his comrade moves up and, with
one well-aimed blow OF his trusty scythe,
sewers the snakes head from his body.
The body then is deposited in bag,
and the hunters so IN search Of other
game.
The most famous hunter of rattle
snakes after this provincial method is
Isaac Spur, who lives in the southern
part of the county, near Mount Everett,
a region long noted for its snakes.
Spurralwaysg goes out Just before storm,
forat that time, he says, experience proves
the RATHER comes out of his hole. He
has caught thousands Of these snakes in
his time, and has acquired such knowl-
edge of their habits that he can trap one
every time. Years ago he found them
much more plentiful and much larger.
He caught one once which was eleven
feet long and thirty-fiye years old. When
Spur dressed the snake for his oil he
found young woodchuck in the stom-
ach Spurs reputation as snake
catcher extends far and wide, and when
the geological folks want snake for
exhibition they always drop Spur a line,
and they are rarely disappointed.
Three rattlers caught by him were taken
to the Central Park Zoo add are there
now,

Story of a Queen Anne Bell.

"Among the things lost-or supposed
to have been lost-in the recent fire
which destroyed the academy in our
village" said Johnstown man in AL
bany, ''was the historic bell that for
years hung in the old academy. 1t was
sent to this country from England by
Queen Anne, and placed in the old
Queen Anne chapel early in the eiGh-
teenth century. 1t used to call the early
settlers TO prayers. It was afterwards
removed and used as n hop-house and
farmers dinner bell. but was secured
from such ignoblc use and placed in the
historic old Johnstown academy NOW
used as glove shop, wherc it became
cracked, it is said, while being rung
in honor Of the visit of Washington Irv-
ing to Johnstown. Ii did duty rs a
school bell until the erection of the
school building recently destroyed,
when it was removed and placed in the
assembly hall, where it was at the time
of the fire. The w0rkmen employed TO
dig ont the ruins found the old bell
broken in two pieces and cracked and
warped out of shape.-Al5aay Journal.

in 0between and o'clock, an d when
they came to his bedside DIR. Craik
asked him if he would sit up in the
bed. He he'd out his hand to me and
was raised up, when he said to the ply
sicians:
81 feel myself going-you had better
not take any more trouble about me,
but let me go off quietly; l cannot last
long"
They found what had been done was
without effect; he lay down again and
they retired, excepting DR.. Craik. He
then said to him: doctor, die hard,
butt am not afra id to go; | believed
from my first attack l should not sur
vive it; my breath cannot last long"
The doctor pressed his hand, but
could not utter word; he retired from
the bedside and sat by the fire, absorbed
in grief. About So'clock the physicians
again came into the room and applied
bisters to his legs, but went out with
out ray of hope.
From this time he appeared to breathe
with less difficulty than he had done;
but was very restless, continually chang
ing his position TO endeavor to get ease.
l aided him in all my power, and was
gratified in believing he felt it, for he
would look upon me with eyes speaking
gratitude, but was unable to utter q
word without great distress.
About 10 o'clock he made several at
tempts to speak to me before he could
effect it. At length he said: 81 am just
going. Have me decently buried, and
do not letmy body be put into the vault
in less than two days after am dead. "
l bowed assent. He looked at me
again and said: DO you understand
meY" / replied, eyes, sir" "Tis
well" said he
About ten minutes before he expired
his breathing became much easier; he
lay quietly; he withdrew his hand from
mine and felt his own pulse spoke to
DIR. CrailS, who sat by the fire; he came
to the bedside. The Generals hand
fell from his wrist; took it in mine and
placed it on his breast. DIR. Craik
placed his hands over his eyes, and he
expired without struggle or sigh.
