HARRISBURG tSsSOfe TELEGRAPH UniEHKEBT GONSUMPTION CURE rContinued from First j many a rattler from the rocky glens of the Adlrondacks to the lowlands of California. Crawford spent yesterday •in Bob bert's Valley, above KockvlUe, and emerged from thence with .two very nice specimens of the rattler. This morning he wended his way down Market street with an innocent look ing lard can containing the venomous reptiles. The Snake King went into j the Central Hotel. Market street, and | laying the can on the floor, told Bar-1 tender H. 1-1. Garman that he had aj couple of snakes there and wanted "toi leave "em." Garman thought the old boy didn't look much as if he had | the snakes, but took the stranger's word for it. It later developed that the snakes were a variety of a differ ent kind than the bartender thought. ,So the can stayed there until Craw j ford returned. Within the Central all was curiosity, and everyone who strayed in would have liked to lift the cover of the can j and have a look at the rattlers but |no one essayed to do so. You Could Touch 'Em But it would have been perfectly! safe, as Mr. Crawford explained, be cause the snakes don't get lively until warmer weather comes on. Crawford says he lures the snakes to him "by whistlin' or singin' some nice low tune." It must be remembered that Mr. Crawford is an authority on snakes, particularly on rattlesnakes, having supplied circuses and sideshows and museums with these reptiles for many years, besides enjoying a brisk trade in rattlesnake oil. Crawford has traveled the length and breadth of the country in search of reptiles. At one time lie wore a pair of trousers made of rattlesnake skins, which last ed, he says, a considerable period. In explaining the method of catch ing and handling these snakes Craw ford says that all you do is to walk up and pick the snake up behind the head. "No snake will bite unless it's coiled; as for the rattler. I tell you the rattler Is a gentleman, because It will not strike without giving warning three times. And it will not strike at all if it's let alone. No; I never was bit but once and that didn't seem to harm me. A snake's just like any other animal. Treat 'em kindly and they won't hurt you." How to Cook lliittl(»nakc "And I tell you," the snake king wont on, "that there isn't any better eatin' in the world than a rattlesnake. You may not believe it, but it's true. Of course you must know how to pre pare 'em. As for that, take a. tripod, or three sticks to make one and after splitting open the snake, hang it on the tripod over a slow fire. Then take off the skin. But if you make the mistake of skinning it first you lose | the flavor. Go into a good many sum i mer resorts and ask for mountain eel [and sometimes what you get is broil ed rattlesnake, which is a good bit better'n eel. "The way to make rattlesnake oil," i Crawford explained, "is to make a'V shaped trough, which ought, by rights to be silvered, and then lay open the snake and cover it with glass, and let the sun do the rest. The oil will all come out on the trough. I get a dollar an ounce for rattlesnake oil and sell it all over the country. one Consumption Cure "The heart of a rattlesnake is good I for consumption," assured the king, j "if you eat it while the snake is near alive. About six years ago T cured I Mrs. Shuck of Seilnsgrove, where I I was then livtn", after all the doctors ( had given her up. i brought the snake and cut it open and she swallowed the heart before the snake died —and she's ! cured. | "I heard of a good den of rattle snakes up near Marysvllle and I'm go : ing there soon. Anybody that says he ! seen or has killed a rattler in the east lover four or four and a half feet, long is either lyin' or was too skeered to see straight when he looked at the snake, in California and the Rockies there are rattlers six, seven and eight feet long, hut in the east the rattlers are short and stubby. I have a dia tnand-backed rattlesnake skin at home which 1 wish you could see. It's a beauty. In this part of the country there are only two kinds of rattlers. I yellow and black. "No, I don't know what I'll do with these two I got. Maybe I'll sell 'em alive, maybe I'll make oil out of 'em. Can't tell till they liven up later in the Spring.'' Sir. Crawford has caught many oth-| er kinds of snakes. He has presented! several black snakes and copperheads I to the State Zoological Department on J Capitol Hill. But his favorite is the mottle-coated, festive, gentlemanly | rattler. !

These utilities, once installed in a com munity, become an absolute necessity. The business of companies HupplyinK them is not subject to the violent booms nor periods of depression that frequently cause wide changes in the value of railroad and Industrial Invest ments. On the contrary, its growth is steady and even. It is only in part a coincidence that the rise of public utilities to the posi tion of standard investments and the growth of tho Investment banker as an economic factor have been contempo raneous. These securities and the bond'and stock merchant have been peculiarly adapted to each other. Elec tric lighting and power properties lend themselves to Intelligent engineering development and constructive financing In such a way that their earning power can be developed with a surety of satis factory results that no other field of business ever before ottered. That the two movements fostered each other is readily appreciated and public utilities are the specialties of many highly or ganized banking- and engineering firms. The Standard Oil stocks, which have been favorites of both investors and speculators during the last two years, have just experienced a sharp decline in price. It was due, and these stocks should be safer for it, both because lower in price and on account of the caution Inspired among venturesome traders by some severe losses. Statis tics show that the consumption of oil Is keeping steadily abreast of the in creased production, despite the higher prices as compared with a few years ago. The gain in the world's output between 1903 and 1508 is estimated at 46 per cent., and from 1908 to 1913 at only 33 per cent. The larger the vol ume of production and consumption of a commodity the greater the surplus required, otherwise the advantage of the producer over the consumer be comes disproportionate. The stocks of oil In the United States at the end of 1913 are estimated at 14 per cent, less than two years before, and only 3 per cent, more than four years ago. The trade position of the oil companies seems, therefore, fundamentally strong. Adverse criticism of the country's business situation was aroused by a decline In new orders booked by tho United States Steel Corporation during March. The. decrease was actually smaller than many observers had an ticipated, and reflects past conditions already known and considered by se curity prices. As a basis for forecast ing the future it is of shallowest In significance compared with the overn ment report indicating the most bril liant crop prospects ever known at this time of year.
