SNAKES PICKED The HOPS.
Why an Indiana Far1aer No Longer
So Pay0 Hired Men. ~

Why an Indiana FaFAer No Longer
81 Pays Hired Men.
The most remarkable story which
has recently found its way into print
comes from Versailles, Ind, says the
Atlanta Constitution. In 1896 the hop
growers of that neighborhood, accord
ing to the story which is now going the
rounds, had some difficulty over the
question of what amount of hire should
be paid to laborers for picking hops.
AS general proposition the matter is
still unsettled except by one hop grow
er, Mr.. Jacob Presley, who resides in a
district known as Deer Lick Bottoms.
He did not hire any 5pickers at al this
year, andyet his hops are al picked and
cured. To explain this mystery, it seems
that Mr.. PRESLEY during the year previ-
Gus had noticed two yellow snakes. His
first impulse was to kill them, but their
actions were so odd that he stopped to
watch them. The snakes would climb
the hop poles and pick every blossom,
throwing them upon. the ground. Then
they would extract Il certain amount of
hop from the stalk and pass or to the
next one. This set Mr.. Presley think
ing if the snakes could not be utilized
instead CT men and wUmen. In the
spring CT 1896 he>found a nest of 13 yell
low snakes down by the creek, and,
capturing them alive, he took. them
home. Tn the fall he tried them on the
hop fields while the. men were absent,
and with such success that he deter
mined to use them this year. Accord
ingly he hired no hands, to the great
surprise Of his neighbors. Instead he
turned the snakes loose, putting, $50
baskets on the ground to catch the hops
as they fell. The experiment was a
great success, but Mr.. Presley has in

WOMEN BUYERS,

They Eravy Large Salaries for Pur-
cha*ir": Goods for Leading Stores.
According to the Cincinnati Enquirer
a prominent woman drummer says:
There are at least SO per cent. more
women buyers in the trade now than
there were six years ago" It is now
estimated that there are 9G0 women
buyers in the United States. From the
time that women first entered the
stores at al, even as salcswcmen, their
taste ard intuition for style, their abil-
ity to select, were noticed. The only
thing that held them back from the
highest position and that holds them
back now in some houses was the fear
that they could not be relied on to make
judicious investments. ...ir, %
3 n woman buyer who purchases fine
line of goods, for EXAMPLE, ladies' tailor
made suits Or misses jackets, receives
a salary of from $4,000 to SIS, 5000 a year.
If she thoroughly understands her bust
ness she turns her stock money over
two or three times within year. She
buys from 100000 to $500, 900 worth of
goods per annum. Such a buyer will
have been in the business certainly ten
years or more and have fami!iarized
herself with every detail If q woman is
uncommonly bright she may learn the
business of "buyer" in three years.
But she has to understand her line of
custom from A to u. and know exactly
how much she eau afford to pay apiece
for such goods in order to sell them It a
reasonable profit. She must know the
wholesale price for the velvet, silk or
fur that trims the garment; also, the
price of the cloth it is made of, the cost
of the making, and the profit to allow
the manufacturer.

Two American captains were recent

March my ship was proceeding under
full sail when a cloud about the size
of mans hand was observed on the
horizon. 1t came on, and as it neared
the ship we discovered that It was com
posed of locusts. They settled on the
sails and you couldn't see a bit Of canvas
for them. When they few away there
was not a stitch of canvas left on the
yards" "Ah," said the other captain.
II can quite believe that, for at about
$3.50 p. m. on March 2 my vessel was
proceeding under full sail when we OBJ
served q small cloud on the horizon.
AS 1t approached the ship we discovered
that it was a cloud ofaIocusts, and as
they passed our vessel we saw that
every man Jack of them had pair of
