For the amateur photographer Somebody Should Tell iho Snakes About 'Snak. Runs' We practically lorgot there was supposed tn be such a IhinK until an old woodsman the oilier day assured us there was a peculiar "runway" at the edge ol his property. He knew lis exact width and could guess at Its probable length. He said, loo, that it had been in use for more years than he had any recullcclion. A "snake-run" he called it. and he had neighbors who had lived in the area for many years and they, too, agreed that it was an "invisible high way" over which countless generations of snakes had reg ularly traveled since the very beginning of time. 100 Yards Wid. The "snake-run" bordered his property, and was report ed lo he about 100 yards wide and no one knew how long, or where it went or where It started. Although we gave the area a good going over, no snakes nor signs of snakes could be found. He explained the. reason for the absence of evidence. He figured the snakes "are Just smart enough not to leave any trail; they want to keen the 'run' cret." He also claimed that snakes had been, seen moving back and forth every year as long as any resident of the neigh, borhond could remember. Snakes, like animals of a nobler class, must have ade quate amounts of water to drink, and in times of short age they would naturally move toward the nearest sup ply. If such a move became nec essary, they would follow any path that afforded ample covrr or protection. This so- called "snake-run" waa an area overgrown with weeds and low bushes. 11 would be the natural place for any crea ture to travel sccrclly, Beyond Capability However, thinking the snakes would follow an ances tral path, instinctively follow ing a trail their ancestors had blazed centuries before, is more than a little ridiculous, and considerably beyond any snake's capability. There would be, of course, a migration of sorts In gnake dom, dictated by changes in temperature. But at such times the animals would move over the shorcst poslble route, and probably as individuals rather than as group. To "hole up" for the winter In some rockpile would be a migration of some duration. No mass movement of snakes has been recorded. They fol low no visible or invisible highway. Where one snake or a dozen went last year or the year before-if there was such a movement, which is a little doubtful - has been pretty well ignored by scientific observations.

I "These additives are of lit , lie or no use and some are i definitely harmful," said Don ' McNeil, chamber manager, "yet dozens of firms continue tn advertise them as pana , ceas for ending septic tank and cesspool troubles." According to the U.S. Pub lic Health service, none of the 1.200 bacterial products placed on the market for use in septic tanks has ever prov ed to be of advantage In prop i erly controlled tests. McNeil i said. ; Maintains Flow ,'1'he chamber manager made it clear, however, that his criticism was not directed at all kinds of additives. He explained that there are three kinds of such additives: caus tics, such as those containing sodium hydroxide; those con- i taining bacteria endor enzy mes; and those with chem icals designed to further pormtly in the drainage field The last-named type of ad- manager said. dltive is useful in maintain- ing a constant flow of water in the drain area, McNeil explained, and is therefore not subject to the criticism " directed against the other two typc9. The caustics group of addl- ' tives only add to septic tank troubles, McNeil charged, say ing, "While small amount! . of bleaches, detergents and drain cleaners have no ap preciably bad effect on a properly designed septic ays- tern, the frequent use of " caustic additives creates an ' unhealthy climate for the bac- -tcrla which liquify solid . wastes." The second group, those 1 containing bacteria andor en- ' zymes, do no harm but by " the same token little or no good, McNeil stated, adding r that they usually are sold to - consumers at a point when . their septic tanks should be . cleaned out. "The average septic tank T should be pumped out at reg- ular intervals. This cannot ; be avoided by adding bac- terlal preparations to do the job instead," the chamber
