I'm Place OF the disappearing
Diamond Back.

With the passing of the diamond
back terrapiu from local waters and
its general scarcity, says a Chester
town (Md-) correspondent of the Bal
timore Sun, the business of developing
"sliders" and "red belly" terrapins has
begun in the waters of Kent county.
These terrapins are now in winter
quarters by the thousands in marshes,
and are in their best condition. The
slider" often attains extremely large
proportions, weighing as much as 20
pounds or over. Tie red belly" is a
smaller species. The larger variety
sometimes sells as high as $2.5G piece.
though the average price is from rs
cents to $1.5O. The smaller variety
sells for from IS cents to $3.50 per
dozen.
These terrapins bury in the mud
from three 10 five feet deep. and ere
found by sounG..Ig with stick and
pulled out with hook. The female.
before she deposits her eggs. is mos
sought after. as the numerous egg
add greatly to the richness Of the E1e-
pared dish. The female terrap;n de-
posits her eggs, ranging from 25 to 30
in number, in the sandy fields near by
her bedding grounds. She goes out
at night. makes a hole with her head
large enough to hold the eggs. and then
proceeds to lay. The eggs are then
covered with sand and packed. and the
'errapin seeks the water before the
sun becomes too hot.
An old trapper states that he had
known terrapins to be killed by the
sun while making their way to the
1'nrsh after laying. The crow is the
,rratest enemy to the terrapin. hunt

that there is the right material in him

the horse he thought he had nothing

horse. After trying the horse several

which he travelled and commenced to

his ability to go at 24la clip and with

horse about the time the battery boys

horse is by C. S. p. and has a brother
