ALLlGATORS' NESTS.
They Resemble Haystaeks and Are
Natural Incubators.

They Resemble Haystacks and Arc
Natural lnoubators.
"An alligators' nest is an interesting
thing" said Alligator Joe. wild ALI
gators build their nests on the bank Of
a river or in marshy places. They are
made of mud, saw grass and leaves
and mold. They are sort Of natural
incubators, for the eggs, which are
laid from thirty-ave to eighty in a
nest at one time, are Matched out by
the steam which comes up through the
mud as much as by the sun. Around
the nest a pile Of grass is laid. some
times as high as six feet, and from a
distance resembles a stack Of hay.
The mother gator has her den near
by. She makes it by burrowing into
a bank of soft mud, and sometimes it
Is seventy feet or more inland The
only way to get her out OF den like
that is to take a long steel rod and
thrust it down the tunnel. which Is al
ways slantins. When the gator feels
the prodding she will come out to see
what the trouble is.
cit takes alligator eggs two months
and six days to hatch. When the little
ones come out the mother calls them
together by noise which is something
between "A cluck and grunt. and they
all scramble down from the nest to her
den. If it is on the edge of river
the den is filed with minnowS. AS the
mother enters the den she swishes her
tail around with terrific force, killing
the smallest fish, and when they float
the little aliigators nab them up.
"A mother alligator will sometimes
have four or five dens. and she takes
her brood from one to another, repeat
ing the swishing process in each one
until the young ones have had a full
meal Harriet Quimby in Leslie's.

Prosperity for the Farmer.

Washington, D. C,-The thirteenth
annual report compiled under the di

established a new record in the agri.
cultural prosperity of the country.
The individual crops, says the report,

formly have been high. As a result it
Is declared that the value of farm
products for the year is so "incom
prehensibly large that it has become
merely a row OF figures"
The total value for the year was $S..
1o6,OOO,O0O, n gain over the year pre-.
Vious of 1869, 0Oo,GOO. The gain for
the year marks, in Mr.. Wilson's opin.
ION, a steady agricultural growth
throughout the country. He points
out that ten years ago the total value
or the crops was only five and a hall
times the increas" accounted for in a
single year by this report. Immense
advantage has come to the farmer
Wrought the period Of prosperity, says
MI. Wilson. Mortgages have been
PAID OF, heavy borrowings are almost
unknown, and tn" farmer, as "A general
thing, Is now standing on his feet
racing the future with confidence.
Cotton Is no longer the king of farm
products in the United States, first
place being yielded TO corn by a mar.
gin of almost $HOo,o0O 900. The value
OF the corn crops is fixed at s1,72O.0Ou
900, while cotton, in the second place
reaches only tn" $3.50, 900, 900 mark.
Wheat comes third, with Il value o
about $72J,000, 900 at the farm. This
drops hay definitely below wheat in
value by a margin of about $780, 600, 900.
The fifth crop in order is oats with a
farm value of about $500, 900, 900, a
