Snake Won In Battle With Squir
rel.
Constable Tom J. Bennett, who
owns a fine plantation down St.
Francis river, is authority for
the following story, in which a
red fox squirrel and a sixfoot
chicken snake are the leading
characters.
Mr. Bennett says in returning
from his farm on Wednesday he
ran afoul of a large dry land
moccasin, and after shooting it.
and while admiring the beauty
of its skin, he heard a squirrel
squeal about 50 feet from him
and noticing the dry leaves mov
ing about rode his horse closer
and discovered a large chicken
snake and red fox squirrel in
mortal combat, his snakeship be
ing entwined around the squirrel
while a faint noise could he heard
from the latter. Knowing what
a delicious meal a squirrel makes
and determining the snake
should not enjoy such a one,
he pulled his trusty “Betsy” and
with a well directed shot hit
Mr. Snake in the head, knocking
his block off. He then got down
and closely examined to see
what had been done, when he
found the squirrel nearly dead,
but its teeth buried in the
snake’s back and had put up a
game fight for its life until its
adversary had simply squeezed
the life out of it.
Mr. Bennett lurcher says that
he kept his eyes peeled for more
reptiles on his way home, but
the two he killed were the only
ones he saw.—Marked Tree

Walnut Ridge, May 18.—Bur
glars entered the store of John
K. Gibson at Lauratown last
night and stole a number of

thoroughly and kill out every
bit of vegetation. Then plant
to cow peas. Sow thick and try
to get a good stand.
If weeds grow among the pea
vines do not allow them to seed,
but go among the pea vines and
puli out or cut the weeds. When
the peas are ready for hay, cut
them and cure them. You may
let a second growth come if
you like, but. be sure to watch
the weeds and grass. Keep
them cut so none will go to seed,
In the fail rebreak your land
and pulverize and free from all
weeds and grass. Get the soil
in good condition and ready to
plant by the middle of October.
Then sow the alfalfa.
Be sure to take pains in select
ing the seed. Good seed is es
sential. Be careful where you
buy and have nothing but the
purest and best. Do not accept
a mere guarantee, but investi
gate where and by whom the
seed are grown. Give them a
good trial. If you do not get
a good stand do not be discour
| aged, but try again next year on
j the same land. It may take the
third year sometimes to get a
good stand, but when you do get
a good stand, you will never re
gret the effort.
Do not make the mistake ol
trying a new place every y'ear
The first nor the second efforts
will not always be satisfactory
in stand, but if you continue
your efforts on the same spot
you will find eventually the
soil will become inoculated and
you will most likely get a good
stand.
