A Frog Farm.

At Siege, small station about
twenty miles from San Francisco, is q
famous frog farm. 1t is on ranch
that extends along the shore of Sar
Francisco Bay, and it comprises abol
a dozen acres OF land and water. In the
| low ground near the bay many springs
of water bubble out OF the soil. These
were surrounded by hedge OF cy.
press, and the water was SO confined
as to form three big ponds Around
each OF these ponds is fence of wire
netting high enough to keep the frogs
from escaping. and the ponds are
filled with aquatic plants, moss, and
everything necessary 10 make the
crOakerS feel confented. When the
ponds were first stocked with frogs,
only a few hundred were put in the
Enclosures; but since that time the
population has grown 50 rapidly that
thousands Of frogs are captured and
sent to market every year without
apparently diminishing the supply.
One Of the first things that the
frog raiser has to learn is TO separs te
the 'yearlings" from tho full-gIown
mes, or "fourc-year- -olds,'' else the
youngsters will be eaten alive by tt cir
fe. ocious elders. A frog four years
old is reaCy for the market: but the
average bullfrOg will grow steadi y
larger and more important both in
voice and bearing, until bis Twelfth
year, when he is ready to croak for
the last time and de with old age.
At the Siege farm ares everal twelve
year-olds. Theyare monsters, fourteen
inches in length, and weighing four
pounds each.
When the winter approaches, the
frogs bury themselves in the mud at
the bottom OF the pond and sleep
until spring. They reappear looking
nearly starved to death. At this
time the keeper feeds them with
mixture Of oatmeal and blood; but
this is continued only until the frogs
get IN good condition, when they are
left to take care Of themselves. Many
Ct the Older frogs Of the Siege farm
are quite tame and allow their keeper
to handle them Selected
