Frog Industry of France.

1t is in France that the frog was
first generally used for food and it is
in that country that the industry of
frog farming has been most largely
developed. The green frog exists
abundantly throughout France wher-
" there are marshes, ponds or
sedgy margins of rivers or bays that
contain fresh or slightly brackish
water.
The best outfit for frog raising is
one or more shallow ponds or reser-
voirs, filled with grasses and other
water plants. 1t should be so situated
that the water can be partially drawn
off, so as to facilitate the labor of
catching. If, as is often the case, the
pond already abounds in frogs, they
are simply protected and left for a
yeaf or two to- propagate. If food
does not prove abundant the owner
throws in live earthworms, as the
frog is a carnivorous animal and pre-
fers the food, whether worms, larvae
or insects, fresh and in normal, living
condition. If no frogs exist in the
water they-ar planted either living,
or in the form of eggs, which hatch
when the water becomes warm in

J. II. Bond Had Been In Bad Health
For Some Time.

Dallas, Texas, May Al. H. Bond
auditor for the Texas Railroad Com
mission, died at o'clock aboard 6
Southern Pacific passenger train &
| few miles west of Ell Paso. Mr.. Bono
had been in failing health for some
time, and left Dallas last Sunday ovel
| the Texas C Pacific for the west in
hopes that the climate in the far west
would benefit him. Mr.. Bonds i'll
ness was not regarded SO serious as
to prepare his Dallas friends for the
announcement of his death, which
was received in a telegram addressed
to Assistant Auditor w. E. Tower OF
/ the Texas & Pacific.
The message was sent by Harry
Brown, former employee of the Texas
& Pacific at Dallas, but now a resi-.
dent of Ell Paso, and a friend of Mr..
Bond for many years.
Mr.. Bond entered the service of the
Texas G Pacific in August, 1888, his
first position being that of an ac-
countant in the auditors department.
Three years later he was appointed
travelling accountant by Auditor R.
Fenby, a position he held until he
was appointed auditor for the Texas
Railroad Commission, July 1, 1906.
Before coming to Dallas Mr. Bond
was connected first with the Southern
Pacific at New Orleans and later with
the Galveston, Harrisburg & San An
tonic railroad at Houston.
Assistant Auditor Tower of the
Texas C Pacific said today: "Mr.
Bond was one of the most efficient
accountants ever employed by rail
road in the Southwest He was Sc
lected by the Texas railroad commits
sioners because of his ability, not for
any political influence, and when he
left us, after many years of service,
all the Texas e Pacific employees who
had known him for years were gen
timely sorry"
