Catches Snakes With Hands
Stuart, Fla., May 13.?Newt Chase,
Martki county fanner and trapper,
. said rattlesnakes are easy to catch
! with the bare hands. And there's
very little competition in the vocation,
he adds.
j Chase says he makes a couple of i
! passes with his hands as he looks
the snake in the eye, and grabs it
Just back of the head. That's all.
"I've caught hundreds of 'em and
never been bit yet," the trapper said.
"Of course, I'm careful because a fellow
is allowed only one mistake.

Hoi? Production Is

('It'inson, May l?> Pork production
1 tit South Carolina is becoming inor??
profitable an<l is likely to tin roaao
during the next soverul yours, at least
to the extent of suppl>ing Inane needs
tor pork Sueli is the encouraging
opinion of Marvin Guln, assistant agricultural
economist of tlu> South Carj
olina Experiment Station, whose re|
cent investigations of the hog enterprise
haw been published ut Station
j Bulletin 305, An Economic Study of
! Hog Production and Murketing in
j South Carolina,
South Carolina is a deficit corn and
hog producing state, explains Mr.
Guln, hut large areas of the state are
adapted to corn and hog production
because of climatic and marketing advantages.
Thus hog production In the
state depends mainly on: competition
with the Corn Belt states which
have a number of comparative advantages;
competition with cotton, tobacco
and other local enterprises;
and efficiency in production.
Pork production is still a minor enterprise
in South Carolina us compared
with cotton, the total value of hogs
produced in the state in 1932 being
about one-sixth the total value of the
cotton produced. But with the increase
in corn and year-round forage
crop production and the use of local
products such as fish meal and cottonseed
meal to provide a balanced
ration, a number of the present advantages
of bog production can be;
overcome. Further. Outstanding im- I
proveineuis in roads utul in markets j
are providing opportunity for pork!
producers to sell their hogs direct by '
truck or rail, or through cooperative
marketing associations.
Bulletin 30f> may be obtained free j
from the Publication Department, of!
Cli-mson. and will be of value to anyone
interested in the factors t hut
must be considered in successful hog
prod uction.

Moro Lepers Kill j
In Break for Liberty
.Manila. May 1*. Six desperate
Moro lepers fled before the consta- j
biliary today after killing seven men
in a bloody dash from the Culion Island
Leprosarium.
The armed lepers, under the leadership
of one who called himself
"Adbullah," killed four fishermen,
seized a boat and fled the colony for
Palawan and neighboring islands
where their^ruthlessncss spread terror
among thVj inhabitants.
Stopping at Jalumpang on Aboabo
Island, the marauders killed three
more persons and robbed Chinese
stores. Then they proceeded to Bonobono
where they attacked. another
Chinese merchant, but citizens of the
town gathered in force and drove
them away. They seized another boat
and escaped to sea.
A call for help brought the soldiers
to Bonobono a few hours later. They
were told that the lepers said they
were sailing for Tlgabk, Borneo. .
The eonstabularymen immediately
'started their hunt on Palawan ami is|
lands in that vicinity.
I Citizens told the soldiers they fearI
ed to seize the lepers because they
! were afraid of infection from the <11I
j sease. Lack of pblice forces on the
i isolated islands left the desperadoes j
I a free band.

Culion Island, about 2i>0 miles ,

; southeast of Manila. Is approximately
I 15 miles long and 10 miles wide. Al!
though the more than 5,000 lepers I
are in a segregated community, they j
