YOUTH MAKES
SPIDERS PAY

There are all manner of ways
of working ones way through col
lege, but Harry Marvin, 16, of
Sarasota, Fla, makes poisonous
Black Widow spiders pay his way
through school.
Carrying a large container in
which 800 of the deadly species
caVorted about, Marvin arrived in
Washington to visit an aunt. He
is en- route to New York. The
spiders are in glass jars and baby
spiders are in test tubes in the
large container.
The black widow lays her eggs
en- maSse. Twenty-eight days later
the eggs hatch and the babies,
about the size of pin heads, feed
on themselves until they triple in
size. Then they begin to feed on
insects, flies, and reaches and
small bugs.
When they are fully matured
he sells them to medical labora-
tories for experimental purposes.
Sometimes he gets as much as IS
cents apiece. The money goes into
the bank to pay for a college edu-
cation. He expects to sell his
spiders to the Medical Center in
New York city. Then he'll go back
to raising more.
He said he got the idea last fall
when he began raising snakes.
He decided spiders were less dan
gerous and more profitable. He
hasn't been bitten yet-and furth-
ermore he doesn't expect to. He
says there isn't any danger If one
is careful.
