Rattlesnakes are raised for their oil by a man named Jaynes, near Gainesville, Mo. He has 10,000 snakes, and the “crop” which he kills each year is about 2,000. The oil sold for liniments brings $1 a pint. Self Is a wonder, a mystery as deep, maybe as God. “Thou sbalt love thy ueighbor as thyself” is all that is required.
