Coming out parties are being
held ln the Rockwood section for
rattlers, the warm, spring-like
weather bringing them out to bask
in the sunshine, and they are being
given ^reception parties’’ hy far-
mers and ranchmen.
The season was opened recently
when more than 30 persons gath-
ered on the Bob Steward farm, be-
tween Rockwood and the Colorado
River, to. make a day of hunting
and blasting rattlesnake dens and
while the group was disappointed
at not having found more than 17
dead rattlesnakes when the day’s
work was over, nevertheless they
realized that more successful hunts
would be staged as the season pro-
gressed.
The rattler Is looked upon with
fear because of his poisonous fangs,
and while scrum waves many lives i
annually^ many rattler bites result
In deaths. That Is why the farmers
, and ranchmen, or* anxious to rid
their places of rattlesn.vwc»
Where log-rolling took place In
the early days of this section, rat-
tler hunts now are held. The fam-
ilies over the community gather
at the place where the hunt Is to
{ be held. The men folk locate the
j dens and blast them with dynamite,
j while the women folk look on, but
not until a sumptuous luncheon has
! been spread picnic style at the
| noon hour.
i When tho thirty-odd persons
gathered on the Bob Steward place,
dens were immediately located and
; the blasting with dynamite began.
[ Following a charge of dynamite,
I the men work with crowbars, shov-
■ els and rakes to move tho crushed
! rock and debris from tho den. Then
■ comes tho excitement. Two of the
! men, with steady nerves, bring, out
| the ugly, poisonous snakes on poles1
| to which have been attached fish
1 hooks. The snakes are killed and
; pitched aside, and the crew then
| goes In search of another den. This
I usually keeps up throughout the
; day, or so long as dens can bo
j found.
Where log-rollings onoe proved
tho entertainment feature, snake
hunts are now providing amuse-
ment. and as one person expressed
himself, ”it’s a place where the
true hospitality of West Texas Is
exhibited.”—Brody Standard.
