THE United States Department Of
Agriculture experts are asking the
people to refrain from killing harm
less snakes. California has passed a law
protecting the gopher snake Of that State,
and Gopher Snake Clubs to carry on the
campaign Of education have been formed
by the dozen in that commonwealth. In
New York City a Reptile Study Society
has been organized for the same purpose
Of being kind to mankind's legendary worst
enemy. Legislation similar to that passed
by California is being considered in other
parts Of the country.
What is it that has so changed opinion
upon the creature whose shape was taken,
says Scripture, by the Prince of Evil to
tempt Mother Eve; but the repulsion for
which almost universally shared by man
kind comes really, science says, from the
long ages when mans hairy progenitors
we're still roosting in the trees Of the pri-
meval forests, and were the constant prey
Of serpents, both Of ground and tree-climb-
ing varieties? The serpents lay in wait
for these shaggy ancestors of ours when
they shambled along the trails. and they
crept silently upon them through the shelf
ering branches Of the trees. Consequently,
declares science, the human fear and alb
hoFrence Of the snake is perhaps the old
est; it is not only prenatal. but pre-human;
tngrained within US.
What has been discovered, then. of the
crawling tribes that can conceivably end
mans ancient feud with them?
This-that snakes eat various and sun
dry enemies of man, or, rather, enemies Of
his food supply.
xiii a snake"-this is one Of the aphor-
isms of the Reptile Study Society and is
supported by the Government-"and you
destroy 100 pounds of wheat, because the
number Of rats and mice that would eat
that much wheat in a year are Just the
number one snake would itself eat"
The defense for the snakes files the fol-
lowing points:
1. They feed on insects. slugs, snails.
etc, that destroy grains, vegetables and
fruit
2. They feed on moles and gophers-the
latter a plague Of the West resembling a
which destroy lawns and gardens
8. They feed on rats and mice, which not
only destroy foodstuffs. but carry disease.
4. Some species, sueh as the king
snakes, live almost exclusively on rattle
snakes, eopperheads, moccasins and other
poisonous varieties. They are immune to
