Some men squirm at the thought Of
eating cells, while others eat them and
consider them the best OF fish. If an
eel. why not a snake? Down in the
southwest rattlesnakes have been
eaten frequently with no bad results.
The flesh Of the rattler Is said to be
white and of good flavor. An army Of
ficer who was also a great ornitholo'
gist. Captain Bendire, once was given
some rattlesnake to eat. He did not
know what it was but pronounced it
mighty good. Later he was told what
he had eaten and although in his
tramping afield he had been compelled
many a time to eat all kinds Of things,
the thought that he had eaten a snake
was too much for him and nature re-
voting, he parted with his breakfast.
A good many field scientists say
that 1t is prejudice alone which pre-.
vents men from eating what they
might eat and perhaps in the interest
of economy ought to eat. There Is
vegetable matter which some people
regard as poisonous and against which
there is other prejudice and yet many
of the wild vegetables of the field arc
wholesome and IL they were trans.
planted to the garden could be raised
in quantities and be sold for good
prices in the market-that is, provided
the name could be changed and the
prejudice could be killed.

PROPHETS Dilemma.

A recent English traveller in Balu-
chistan had from a holy man in that
country a story about Moses which
does not appear in the Scriptures, yet
has its pertinence to this matter of
politicians proposing to do away with
all the evils of the human lot, says the
Century Magazine. The patriarch was
sitting in his house very sad, and the
Lord said to him: Prophet Moses.
why art tnou cast down." "Alas!'
said he, 81 see so many people sorrow
full. Some are unclothed and some are
hungry. pray Thee make them all
happy and contented." The Lord prom
ised 1t should be so. But soon Moses
was again disconsolate, and once more
the Lord asked the cause. Lord, y
cried the prophet, "the upper story of
my house has fallen down, and nobody
viii come to mend it; they are all too
busy enjoying themselves. "But what
am l to do?" Lord, make the people
as they were before"

Ten Things to Do This Month.

l Sow wheat and oats; get the oats
in as soon as possible; treat seed of
both crops with formalin or bluestone
if smutty, and look for cheat and other
weed seeds.
2 Keep on sowing cover crops; still
time to SOW rye, vetch, crimson clover;
also rape and winter turnips.
3 Put the turning plows to work, es-
pecially on clay soils; if you subsoil,
this is the time for it.
4 Take special care of the land to
prevent winter washing; fix up terra.
ces, open out bitches, ct; underdrain
where it is needed
Get the corn and corn stover un-
der shelter early; look after all late
crops that will make feed.
Store the cotton under shelter;
keep it picked off as closely as practic
able.
I Get the land ready for planting
fruit trees, berries, grapes, etc; plant
winter garden crops.
s Increase the hogs grain ration /;
feed the cows literally enongh too keep
them from failing with their milk.
8 Put the apples, potatoes and other
fruits and vegetables safely away; If
you are without good place to keep
them, there is still time to prepare it.
10 Talk to your neighbors about the
roads and see if you cannot stay out of
the mud this winter; at least arrange
things so that the yard and barnyard
will not be muddy. Progressive
Farmer.

Don't Rush Cotton to Market.

Cotton, selling last fall for eight or
nine cents pound-before it was
known just what a "whopper" the crop
was-is now selling for eleven cents
(nearly twelve). And this despite the
fact that the official statistics show
that the crop was over 1900, 900 bales
bigger than anybody dared predict in
the beginning.
The advance has come after the great
bulk of the crop has passed out OF the
hands of the men whose sweat and la
Dor brought it into being. Millions and
tens of millions of dollars that should
have gone to enrich the plain farmers
of the South have gone into the hands
of spectators, merchants and cotton
buyers. ,
But for last falls stampede to SELL
the wholesale flooding of an already
satisfied market-the farmer might
have gotten eleven cents last fall as
easily as the speculator gets it now.
1t was a risk to take, because, as
Henry Grady said, "cotton is darn
fool" but the Progressive Farmer did
take the risk of continually urging the
farmers to hold for better prices. We
predicted that cotton would be twelve
cents by spring, and if the crop had
been no bigger than conditions then in
dicated, cotton would have gone to l2c
before now. Even with a 16-million-
bale crop it is nearly 12c. And our
readers who followed the Progressive
Farmers counsel, refusing to be fright.
ened by the declining market or by
s and Sc offers have profited notably.
The big lesson that seems to stand
out is the need of warehousing and
gradual marketing putting the crop or
| the market through period OF twelve
months instead Of period OF three,
'The laborer is worthy of his hire,
and this springs advance should have
| gone to those who earned the wealth
not to those who merely trafnckeo

A New Sample of Lynch Law.

While it is the right thing for the
law to take its course, there is GER
tain satisfaction that comes when we
read that prisoners in the Wyoming
state prison showed their respect for
womanhood by lynching black brute
who cruelty attacked an aged white wo-
man. The men who accomplished the
lynching are suffering the penalty of
the law for many and various crimes,
but they would not stand for such an
outrage, and in less than five minutes
they had hanged the negro, who was
brought to the penitentiary for safe
keeping. 1t certainly is not right to
take the law into our own hands, and,
no doubt, the convicts in the Wyoming
prison will suffer for their deed, but
men are sometimes willing to suffer
end endure when they believe that their
punishment is brought about by some
good they have accomplished. These
men should know better than to violate
the law in place where violation of
the law is punished, but at the same
time they have the satisfaction of
knowing that they put out of the world
one who had no respect for white wo-
manhood. The Governor of Wyoming
should show some special honor to these
lawbreakers and convicts who knew no
better than to hang a man who at
tackled Granny" Higgins, who was
their friend. IN. o. Picayune.

Model Commission.

California has a railroad commission
which is the pride of that state and
which is receiving the hearty cooper
alton of its citizens. In eighteen
months it has saved the people of the
state, in railroad tolls alone, at the
rate Of 81. 600, 900 per annum. The to-
tai cost of the commission, including
salsries, furniture and equipment, is
only sos, ,5O8. 10 per anuum. 1t is at

1900 public service corporations in the
state, and when it gets through it
promises that there will not be gill OF
water in the stocks and bonds of any

fornia railroad commission is one of the
