Speaking Up fljr Snakes.
For too long a time snakes have
been looked upon as the cause of
the fail of man, and hence as tlie

snake. The ignorance about this
class of animals In every country
section, however, is dense enough
to be cut with a knife like cheese.
Almost a 11 the snakes that we
have in the United States, and par

born snakes are harmless. In fact,
in Guilford county we have but cne
snake that Is venomous, and that is
the copperhead. , Throughout the
United States there are but three
other venomous varieties. The,' rat
tler appears under a score of col
ors and names, and as is usually un
deretood, ia the most venomous
snake we have In America. Next
to him is the copperhead. Nearly
or quite as venomous as the copper
head is the cctton-mouth water
moccasin, which, by the way, is
the only poisonous water snake out
of over 250 varieties The bead

Sure Death to Bugs.
The Department of Agriculture
has Just discovered two infallible
cures for cock-Toacl-Jes.
According to the directions of
the government experts you should
get a quantity of stale beer the
staler the better, because the fumes'
are stronger and place It in a num
ber of shallow pans near the run
ways of the roaches. . On the sur
face ot the beer you should place
a number or little Tans, maae oi
thin board ike the top of an ojid
cigar box.
This should be done before re-
tarlng, and in theory there won't
be any cock-roaches left to bother
you when you rise In the morning.
According to the government bug
ologlsts, the littlsj bugs are very
fond cf ctaie beer and they win
climb into the pans and drink some
ot it. The majority of the pests
are expected to swim along the sur
face of the beer until they cornel to
the rafts. They will clamber
aboard these, and will be overcome
by the fumes of the stale beer, and
they will drop off the raft and be
drowned in the amber juice.
The government believes in this
scheme to such an extent that it
has issued a pamphlet or bulletin
setting; forth the plan in ' detail1
and giving diagrams of the beer
traps for the roaches. So there
must be something In it.
The Department ofl Agriculture
has furnishde another idea which
to Just as simple aa the first, but
has the advantage of not entailing
the v use of spirituous liquors. All
you need for this process of exter
mination is a little plaster of Par-
Is. a little sugar and some water.
You simply mix the plaster of Paris
with the sugar In order to make it
palatable to the hungry roach, and
place the pan of water nearby. Mr.
Roach comes up to the white pow
der, and attracted y the sweetness
of the powdered sugar consumes a
considerable quantity of It. Then
being thirsty after this feast! he
goes over to the water and quench
es his thirst. A moment later the
plaster of Paris sets in the intes
tines of the insect and he' drops
dead. t i i '
