Mr. M. D. Mclver, of Winder, is very

"Snakes are on the boom now, more
rattlers around than usual, several
have been killed right lately and the
largest kind.
Yesterday Jim Harrison came in
town with a footer tied to his but:
gy axle just for a show, 14 rattles and
14 inches in circumference the two up-

per iangs were at inches long each. I
Mrs. Dr. Farnell killed three in her

fence, we dispatched him easily, he
was not such a large snake though; on

and 33 inches in circumference be
iween the rabbits.
There are plenty of larger snakes
than these around. Dr. Blount our
