Products of the Sea at the other. "Once,aome years ago,” said Superin- tendent H. T. Woodman of the city's aquarium at Castle Garden, "I went up the west. coast of Florida In a sailboat on a collecting tour for shells and so on. On the north shore of Tampa Bay we saw a little white house—«ery white. indeed, it was—~a whiteness, as we afterward learn- ed, that was due to whitewash made of lime from shells that the owner had burned himself. We went ashore there and were most hoepltably received and in- vited to stay. \V‘e couldn’t do that, but we were in the neighborhood for a day or two, and we ate two or three. media at his house, and subsequently I called upon him once or twice and was received in the same hospitable manner. “No doubt there are other gardens like his, but his is the only one of the sort. I ever saw, a kind of luud-nnd-wntcr gar- den combined. Ills lund garden, which was about half an acre or so, was fifty or perhaps it hundred lect back from the shore. He had in this garden cabbliges and bonus and potatoes and lettuce, and garden stuff generally. His water garden was composed of three patches each ubout fllty feet square, side by side and under water, close to the shore, and each en- closed in a palmetto crib, which was, how» ver, only one log high, for that. was all that was needed. lie could go out in a .kiff at any time and catch anything that there was in any of the cribs. "In the first. patch of the Water garden he kept hard clams, and he had plenty of them. The second patch he had ilxed up for oysters. He had thrown in shells for the oysters to spawn on, and he had an abundant supply of oysters. The third crib he had fixed up for crmtucea. He had thrown in some old stumps hero, and had shoved in under the crib some slabs or planks that had drifted ashore, to make a shelter for crawllsh. which like to back in umlcrthings us the lobster does. lie had in this crib cruwflsb and crabs. Of course these could really have crawled over the single log of the crib if they bud wanted to, but they didn‘t want to; they preferred the shelters in this crib to the sandy beaches outside. in fact. this crib was an attraction to any slrny cruwilsh or crub that might come that way. You see he had only to step out. of his house on one side for his vegctublen and on the other for his sea food. He guve us oysters steamed in a big iron pot over a tire in the yard, and the pick of both his gar- dens, land and marine; and certainly we couldn‘t have had anything fresher or more delightful."

From that time a strong attachment existed between the cat. and the ban, and when Biddy left her neat to take accnatl tuticnal lsnarn would crawl into the neat. curl up, and defy the whole colony of rats. 'l‘hua were the eggs kept warm and intact. and when the hen had rounded up her three weeks of labor she walked 0!! the nest with thirteen pretty little chicks. . Every egg was hatched. Rats have a keen appetite for fresh young chickens, and those around the barn did their best to get a choice morsel outlof biddy‘e brood, but ishum hung around her night and day until the chick- ens became capable of selfwlefeiice, and biddy went back to her roost and ro- sumed business as a common, every-day layer of eggs. This winter an opportunity for the hen to repay lshain for its kindness to her presented itself, and she waded in tocan- cei the debt in a way that. proved her gratitude. Muskrat. skins are worth from 20 to 30 cents a piece at. this season, and Bogus picks up a good many odd dol- lars in winter through them. Early in the season be conceived the idea of train- ing the cat. to hunt muskrata. lie believed that if he could get. a live muskrat and arrange a fight. between it. and the cat Iaham would look tor that particular game thereafter. He set. a box trap on the bank of the canal and caughta muskv rat. It wasagood‘slzod animal, and when Iaham was shut up in a room in the wag— on honse with it, it was apparent right away that there was going to be the live- liest kind oi light. The cat wni ked around the muskrat a few times and 1 lion jumped at. it. The rat met the assault bravely, Mid set its sharp teeth into inlmm's leg. The cut didn’t take kindly to the trick, and entered into the Culilt‘si with' rc- newcd vim. it. was a hard fought bottle, but the cut. won. After that. the cut haunted the canal and made relaxations war on uniskrnts. Notnday passed that ltdidn't bring one animal up to the house and sulllf'tlmefl it killed three. llogue Eslllllliiun that in the last two months the cat has been worth to him an average of twenty lire cents a day. Last week isham not rather more than “bargained for. it. was down by the canal looking for game and it spied n muskrat fooling around the rotten timbers of an old barge in the basin. The mt sneaked up an the animal, and when it. got within jumping distance it made a leap. It reached its pray, but had hurdlyalighted when two other muskrats jumped in to help their companion .cut. of the scrape. The cat hadn’t. counted on this onslaught and it began to retreat up the bank, kcep~ ing up as much of a show of dignity as possible. The three muskrute kept close to its heels, and when Isham humped its back, clubbed its tail, and aturtcd for the house, the rats threw,it down and fairly mapped the ground Mill it. in its dis. tress inborn let forth a chorus of howls that attracted the attention of ii.» friend, the hen, who was quietly lending u short distance away. liiddy took it quick sur- vey of the situation, umi all u un- proceed- ed to help the out mil.

She ulmrd her blows at. the eyes of the muskrnlu and soon had them blinded.
