HAS STRANGE PET
Maine Girl Owns Ten Foot
Python Which She
. FondIes.
NOT AFRAID OF SNAKES

Bangor, Me-, Jan. Miss Myrtle
Lambert, of Strong, has strange pet
In ten foot python, brought from
Asia and presented by a friend. Miss
Lambert has developed passion for
snakes and the python is her house
hold pet. It belongs to the boa con-
strictor variety and eventually is ex-
pected to reach length of twenty-five
or thirty feet.
The python, which its owner has
named Billy, Is very fastidious as to
it's food. and 1t insists on having nice
Tat chickens for it's meals. Miss Lam
bert has another snake of the coral
variety that she prizes highly. It was
given her by the same person who
gave her the big fellow. The little
snake is about three feet in length and
one Of its favorite positions is coiled
In It's mistress hair. Here it will re-
main perfectly quiet for hours at a
time. observing all that is going on,
however. The two snakes are great
friends. Billy receives as much care
as q child.
Every morning the snake gets a
hath Of new milk. the body afterward
being wiped quite dry. The box occu.
pied by the snake. which was made
Tor his especial occupancy. is con.
structed Of polished woods and is lin.
ed with soft cloths. There are perches
In the box and long shelf that his
snakeship may stretch upon.
Il have always had great liking
for snakes" said Miss Lambert
Afraid OF snakes? Wen, / should say
not. For my part cant see what
there Is about a snake that girl
should be afraid of. Now, some might
say that Billy is dangerous, but
am not bit afraid OF the big fellow
It's true that he has the power now tc
kill human being by crushing. but
know that he won't hurt me. for |
think he loves me. He is SO nice and
affectionate, running his head up on
my face and in way almost kissing
my cheek Why. Ed hate to part With
Billy. and don't intend to as long as
can keep him"
One day, not long ago, the snake es
capped from his box and invaded the
family pantry. Then there was .
great commotion, for in his progress
about the place he tipped over many
pieces Of china. and the resulting
wreck was something that the family
may remember for some time.
It was on the same day when the
big fellow was making his way
through the parlor Of the house in his

LET GOPHERS TAKE WARNING Expert Arrives to Help EradI-
 cate Them DEMONSTRATES METHODS Dr. A. K. Fisher of the De partment of Agriculture Will Show Just How to Deal With the Undesir- able Rodent.
DEMONSTRATES METHODS

For the purpose of demonstrating the hest and latest methods of rid- ding the territory of one of its most viruient pests-the common gopher pr. A. K. Fisher of the department of agriculture at Washington, D. C., has come to the valley at the instigation of his department and will today be- gin the practical work of showing just how the nifty gopher can be properly squelched.
 pr. Fisher is in charge of the inves- tisation into the food habits of birds and mammals of the biological survey of the department While here he will devote his attention to burrow- ing animals. In company with Howard Reed, engineer Of the recla- nation service, he will today make a tour of the entire valley and instruct tho zanjeros in the use of the trap and the poison.
 The attention of the great big de- partmont of agriculture has at last been attracted to the festive little gopher-not because the gopher is a rather cute little rodent and sits on his hind legs very prettily-Oh. no; but because he has the habit of boring holes into Uncle Sam's ditches and letting all the water out. For this reason he has been accommodated and the government will see that he becomes as extinct as possible.
 CT course, it Is the business of the ranchcr to attend to his own gophers and not to make pets of them. but the cooperation of farmers is desired so that the entire species may become as extinct as the dOdo bird The imme- diatc problem is to instruct the ditch riders in the art of eXtermination so that the canal banks will not be shot fuH of holes like a pepperbOX cover, as many of them are now.
 Dr. Fisher, who proved very affable and a thorough naturalist, was seen at the Hotel Adams yesterday He dis played a gopher trap which in his es- timation, was sure and sudden death to the animal. That trap is as sure of its victim as the guillotine," he said all you have to do is to set it properly and you will catch him. Like the guillotine. it is instant death and catches the culprit behind the ears.'' In regard to the general utility of the work. Dr. Fisher cited as an eX- ample that done at Fallon, New, on the Carson -Truckee reclamation prof. ect. In the spring of 1908 the riders were called in and the work began The holes were dug out and the traps and poison placed in position. I was there a few months later and could not find a single fresh hole.
 The trouble with the general exter- imitation of the gopher is a lack of cooperation. One rancher may rid his land of them, but if they are ne

In our business, we have found that letters Qf instruction sent out from Washington have not proved eff fective A practical demonstration seems to be the only way to get at the problem and that is the reason for my presence here. Tomorrow I shall ride out with MT. Reed, see as many zanjerOs as we can. dig out gopher holes and set the traps after the approved style"
 Dr. Fisher also spoke of the efficacy of the gopher snake. Gopher snakes should never be destroyed" he said; even the rattlesnakes are great de- stroyers of rodents, as the contents of their stOmachs show, but his vicious disposition is his death warrant. There seems. however to be a great amount of transformation in regard to the hawk and the owl Our de partment makes recommendations for the destruction of noxious animals and birds. but out of seventy-five va rieties of hawks and owls, there are but three or four which are to be de- stroyed. I have examined the con tents of the stomachs of 5000 hawks amt owls The sparrow hawk is beneficial It will kill small birds at times. but it feeds largely on insects and mice. The Cooper hawk, which in some places is called the blue dartcr, is injurious because he is too fond of the chicken roost. The sharp shinned hawk will kill song birds and chickens The great horned owl in thickly inhabited places is injurious because he invades the roost, but in this district I should say he would prove beneficial as he is the enemy of the jackrabbit and all rodents. The barn owl, or golden owl. or monkey faced owl, as he is variously called. should never be shot. for he destroys an immense number of field mice"
 pr. Fisher will go to California from here and then to Seattle before returning east.
