From the Atlanta Herald
SPARrANsBURG, :. c., December Is, lS73,-
The town is still stirred over the arrest OF the
Supposed Bender murderers. About seven
teen years ago an old shoemaker living al
BerryVille, "A small town in this county
named Webb, moved west with his family,
and was almost forgotten by the community.
Last year, month or so after the Benuer
murders this old shoemaker come back with
his wife and quietly settled down in his Old
hauntS, being remembered by several OF ms
old associates. Two or three days ago sheriff
from Union county, with some Detectives,
came over and arrested these people, charg-
ing that under the assumed name of Bender
they committed the murders above alluded
TO and fed justice, dropping their new names
and returning TO their old homes as WeDO-
The son, Joshua, and his wife were also ar-
rested. They we're taken before trial justice
and, after much contradictory evidence,
they were discharged, there not being SUI

They are still watched, and can be produced
IL any time. Great feeling was manifested IN
their favor by their nelghbOrs, aud many
doubt the truth OF the accusation against
them.

WHOOPING COUGH.

A writer in the Medical Journal, Lon
don, states that In cases OF whooping
cough in the last stage-that is, after the
third week-he has had one ounce of the
strongest liquid ammonia put into a
gallon Of water in an open pan, and the
steam made up by means Of a half a
brick made red-hot, throughout, and put
into the boiling water containing the
ammonia, the pan being placed in the
middle of the room, into which the pa
tients were brought as the ammonia
steam was passing of. This method, he
says, was used in the evening, just be-
fore bed time, and it proved so eficacious
in preventing the spasmodic attack, and
after three or four days terminating the
malady, as to establish, beyond doubt,
the great value of this mode of inhaling
ammonia as therapeutic agent in tran
QUILTING the nervous system in the
whooping cough.

CUCuMBERs FOR PICKLES.


/ In writing upon this subject we would
| first remark that the business of grow
ing cucumbers for pickle market may be
easily overdoue. though it is equally true
that the demand increases each year.
Many growers have undoubtedly been
sadly disappointed. in that they have
grown quite largely of them, under the
impression that they were sure OF quick
and remunerative sale, but when they
have applied to the dealers have been
informed that the supply was very large,
aud the market completely broken down.
/ In consideration of these facts we would
not recommend any very large invest
ment Of labor in this crop by persons re-
siding far from large towns or from es-
tablished pickle factories.
their crops at fixed and remuBerative
price, or who may be reasonably sure of
a sale, it is a matter of importance TO
know the best manner of caring for the
crop after it is grown. From a member
of one of the best pickle houses in the
country, We gather the following particu-
lars:
Pick your cucum bers from two to four
inches long, and use half bushel of good
dairy salt to the barrel Take care that
the salt is pure and free from lime
Sprinkle your salt among your cucum-
bers as you put them in the barrel, but
put very little in until your barrel is half
full. Put no salt in the bottom of your
barrel. When your barrel is full or you
have all in you mean to put in for the
day, put on your cover and weights see
that your cover is loose enough to work
free in the barrel, but not so small as to
let out your cucumbers. Have your
weights heavy enough to hold your Gu
cumbers down. Lastly, put water enough
in the barrel to immerse the cover. Have
no cucumber over night without being
sated
Forty-gallon or whisky barrels are
generally used for salt pickles. When
heading up the barael see that it is full
of pickles and head it so that it will not
leak. Salt pickles will not keep out of
brine; If you intend keeping your pick
les have them in place where you can
examine them often, and if the brine has
leaked off. replace with fresh brine of
proper strength. These barrels average
about 40 gallons each, and hold some
$500 or 1900 pickles of the size men
toned
Soft and broken pickles are useless and |
should be thrown out before shipping.
They should be hard, we'll covered with |
brine. and the barrels well filled. The |
barrels are usually returned to the grow |
ers, as they may he used year after year.
-Patrie Farmer.
