DINNER EOS A SNAKE
Gradual Absorption Of q Frog By G
Water MOCcasin.

Gradual Absorption Of q Frog By G
Water MOCcasin.
1t is not often that one has an oppor-
tunity Of watching a snake swallowing
his live prey when the snake is free
and On his native soil. a summer idler
near the Newman Springs bridge, on
the Shrewsbury river, the other day
stopped for a rest at the site of an old
rustic summer-house. A spring there
was damned up years ago and the
summer-house built over the pond so
that wanderers could sit and refresh
themselves there. The summer-house
rotted and fell, and the pond filled with
many seasons fall of leaves from the
surrounding oak and chestnut trees.
AS the idler sat on a remnant Of the
old dam a frog about four inches in
length was suddenly projected from
under the leaves, At first the idler
was puzzled to know how it managed
to stand in the air in such a manner,
but soon he saw that it was held in the
jaws of a snake. The snake was less
than two feet long and was what was
known locally as a water moccasin.
His head was about half an inch broad
and his neck smaller in size than an
ordinary lead pencil. The frog in the
thickest part was about two inches
across. The snakes jaws were closed
just over the end of one of the frogs
hind legs, and even that was such a
mouthful that il seemed as if the jaws
were stretched to their utmost.
In and out among the leaves the
snake slowly twisted and turned, work
ing his jaws all the time till he had
worked the smaller end of the frogs
leg down his throat. Then he became
more quiet. Now he began a slow.
monotonous task. His jaws worked
continuously, but with a motion hardly
perCeptibls, aided by an occasional
strained contortion Of the snakes neck.
Soon the frog was but a mere lump
in the snakes throat, and finally il
passed downward. Then the snake
raised mis- head and neck in q graceful
curve and his little nervous, forked
tongue shot out at regular intervals.
Then. spying his observer for the first
time, he slid quickly under the leaves
just in time to escape a blow with a
light stick. 1t took the snake about is
minutes to swallow that frog, and no
doubt he had swallowed many larger
ones.-N. Y. Sun.

How an Immense CrOp Is Hznales On
q CsIffGFn5e Ranch.


q CGIffGEn1a Ranch.
Probably there is no better known
and certainly there are few larger
ranches in the state Of California than
that owned by the Meek estate. It is
situated a little way outside the city Of
Oakland and it covers a huge tract Of
land between San Lorenzo and hay.
wards. 1t is spread over 1900 acres Of
some Of the finest fruit-bearibgc untFy
on the Pacific coast. A thousand acres
Of this extent is in fruit, for the most
part cherries.
The ranch is owned and controlled BY
the two Meek brothers and their sis
tiers, how slzillfully may be known from
the fact that in spite Of hard times ana
a depressed market there has never
been a year when it has not paid. and
paid literally. A full crop of cherries
from this wonderful orchard viii bring
its owners anywhere from $4,000 to
$4,000.
The seasons cherry picking goes on
at q great rate, and a little army Of
pickers toll from tree to tree, stripping
the branches ike a swarm Of locusts.
The sight is picturesque for the
pickers come by families and live in
the cherry orchard in a small village Of
tents. At the height Of the season near
ly $50 pickeTs are employed. They are
Of all ages and both sexes, as the work
is of such & nature that it can be per
formed as well by women as by men,
as well by ten-year-old girl as by a
grown man. The piekers are, Of course,
boarded at the expense Of the ranch,
and besides are paid from IS cents to
o dollar a day, 30 that a wife and two
or three children can make as much
money during the few weeks Of the
picking season as the head Of the house
can earn during the entire year.
after the picking the cherries are
taken over to the packing house and
handled at once. The ripper cherries are
sorted out and put upon local markets,
while the more backward are shipped
east. The force Of packers can dispose
Of 42O boxes per day. Two thousand
boxes go to the car load, and must be
hurried to their destination as speedily
as possible, for there is no fruit that
loses its favor quicker By overkeeping
than the cherry. For the same reason
the boxes must be rapidly marketed,
for they will not keep many hours in
the heat Of an eastern summer. There
are plenty Of difficulties in the way Of
