SNAKES CHANGE MANS VIEWS
Pennsyivanla Farmer Puts He Hand
Into Nest Of copperheads and
Stops His Grumblinq.

York, Pa.-Farmer William Tracey
changed his notions about the weather
when he reached into a nest Of six
copperhead snakes In removing an old
stone fence, In Dover township, and
promptly resigned from the Knockers
club.
Before the adventure Of his hand
Farmer Tracey's remarks at the East
mount village store were those Of a
weather pessimist. He opined that It
was unseasonably cool and that crops
would suffer II hot wave did not
soon come along.
However, II that particular hot
wave for which Tracey hankered had
been there when he put his hand into
the copperheads' nest, 1t is probable
they would have been active enough
to have made Tracey the hero OF q
different sort Of reception. .Asr II was,
the six snakes were too sluggish from
the chill to move with their summer
alacrity.

Farm Demonstration.

London Some thirty tons Of French
garden, heavy with plants as well as
golden SOIL" are being removed from
Reading to Birmingham.
The garden, which stood In corner
OF Messrs. Sutton,s trial ground at
Reading, Is the best educational model
yet seen. In Its new site In Marley

naturalizing 1t. The garden will be
opened by the lord mayor and lady
mayoress Of Birmingham, who were
originally interested In the scheme by
Mr.. Chance--like his cousin, Sir Jo-
seph Chance, one Of Birmingham
notable benefactors.
The model is described as "educa-
tional," designed to demonstrate the
continental system of intensive cul-
tivation," and as a demonstration 1t
is not less chaming than 1t Is edu-
cational.
Everything Is to be transferred just
as It Is. and not one plant Of the
emaly thousands win be disturbed.
The frames and cloches and open
patches Of ground are to demonstrate
the growth and progress Of French
gardening as well as the results; and
for this reason all the spectators will
follow one path in one direction, so
that they may pass with the explain
atory lecturer, as 1t were. from Febru-
airy to November.

In which four crops are growing to-
gether, the fourth being caulifower.

showing how the cloches feed the
frames. At this stage the first part
of the year Is completed. The sue
ceeding beds and frames illustrate
how the soil Is used yet again for the
later part Of the year.
This is perhaps the most novel and
interesting part OF the. demonstration.
The variety Is most striking. One Of
the late beds Is filled with cabbages,
between which again Is double crop
