Certain speo : es known as Balloon ing spiders will climb to top of a tall weed or fence-post and spin a, long thread out into the air, when it has drifted far enough out into the breeze to develop sufficient “pull” the spider will let go of its foothold and ride away on the buoyant web perhaps for a mile or farter before it gets an accidental foothold at some new place. It is probable that there are from 300 to 400 or more distinct species of spiders in South Carolina; as yet no one in this state has undertaken thor ough collection and study of them. riton Summer, U a graduate of New berry College, February 1944 with magna cum laude distinction.
