side started such work on the Canadian side of

STARTING AN ALLIGATOR FARM IN 
SOUTH CAROLINA. 
J. W. Black and T. M. Patrick of South 
Carolina have started an alligator farm. They 
did not originally intend this, but circumstances 
have in a way forced the new enterprise upon 
them. Recently they went fishing on the Edisto 
River and found an alligator "nest" containing 
twenty-six eggs. They “robbed” the nest, and 
placing the eggs in the foot of their buggy, 
started home. They, had not driven very far 
before they heard a faint barking, and looking 
down into the buggy they found two or three 
little ’gators wriggling about their feet. 
By the time the gentlemen reached home, 
eighteen of the alligators had hatched out, and 
Messrs. Black and Patrick were riding with their 
feet upon the dashboard, the bottom of the buggy 
being too crowded for comfort. The noise made 
by the little ’gators sounded like a puppy show. 
Three more of the ’gators have since hatched 
out, and now the family numbers twenty-one. At 
first Messrs. Black and Patrick were greatly con¬ 
cerned over the problem of feeding and caring 
for the orphans. In their desperation they have 
made several attempts to capture the mother 
’gator, but so far the old woman has eluded 
them. However, after much experimenting they 
have found that the little saurians are particu¬ 
larly fond of bread and bananas, and that is now 
their daily diet.—From, the Columbia State.

MUSK-OX HERD. 
Because a musk-ox looks as round and sleek 
as a Jersey cow, it does not necessarily follow 
that it is just as fat. If the musk-ox is amiable 
and allows one to approach closely enough to 
stroke him, the investigator would be astonished 
to find under the long, silky outside hair a thick 
covering of the finest wool at least two inches 
thick. During the cold that prevails in our New 
York winters, this covering is at its best, but as 
the warmer days approach, the wool is shed out, 
leaving the musk-ox in the lightest of summer 
covering. To all appearances his pelage is just 
as abundant as ever, and in consequence the ani¬ 
mal is an object of much speculation by visitors 
as to the extent that he is able to endure the 
heat. Thus far this season Keeper McEnroe has 
collected from five young musk-oxen about 
twenty pounds of wool, and there are as many 
pounds yet on them. It could be converted into 
excellent clothing, as it is as fine and delicate 
as the best wool of sheep.—Zoological Society 
Bulletin. 
A KENTUCKY FISHERMAN. 
According to the sworn statement of Eli 
Barnes, the most noted fisherman in Provi¬ 
dence, here is what he caught out of a hole in 
a creek bank several days ago: Two hundred 
and ninety fish, thirteen turtles, two muskrats, 
five large sized frogs and a snake six feet long. 
He says he can prove it by fifty witnesses. 
People who don’t know Barnes will doubtless 
be a little sceptical about believing this story, 
but if they had ever been out with him fishing 
it wouldn’t sound unreasonable a bit. Every¬ 
body wants to go fishing with Barnes. He 
scoffs at the way other people fish and has a 
peculiar way of his own about gathering in the 
finny tribe. He picks out a shallow stretch of 
water that he can wade in and grabbles for the 
fish around stumps and logs. When a fishing 
party goes out with Barnes the first thing they 
do is to begin building a fire. When the fire gets 
under good headway Barnes is there with the 
fish ready for the frying pan.—From the Provi¬ 
dence Enterprise.
