milk Sick IN raW MouNrAIas.-- -
Totha Editor Of The Nesos oad Goa<<ux
10 reply to the Inquiry Of T. 8. H., s.
Jour issue OF to-day, I write 20 ~ e,
milk sick is a asll.koown dissaso or czs-
tic in the mountainous regions of this
State, and na far as I am Informed it is
fatal iu every instance.
remember that when clerk in
Walhalla fifteen years ago quantity of
tallow from the mountains was sold to
my house, which, as it afterwards tran
spired, had been taken from COWS that
died of this disease. 1t proved quite
useful in Kidding the premises Of rats.
About twenty years since a party
camping on one of the border mountains
found all their mules dead in the morn
ing. Ooe of them scraped the black
dew, as it is called, from the under side
of a tin plate that had lain all night in
verted on the grass. Analysis proved
this dew to be highly charged with ar
senc. This is all l can say about the
cause of milk sick 1t was from this
disease that the mules were supposed to
have died.

A VALLEY OF DKATH.-To the Edi-
tor Of the Ne,os and Courier: The fol-
lowing is, | think, what your querist T.
s. L., Society Hill, S. G, desires to
know:
About mile from Waynesville,
Hayward Comfy, N. G., is spot some
acre or so area, called the Mooney Cove
From May to September the vegetation,
which is very luxuriant, is covered every
morning with ine powder re-
semblipg dust of -four. Cattle
show a great fondnoss for it, and
when it is in season they will get in a
perfect rampage, believing aud running
to the cove, where they eat gfenaly Of
the dusty vegetation. Soon nftcrward,
the calf, if there be one sucking, n COW
that has eaten, dies. Persons using her
milk will be siezed with nausea anorcxia
soon developing into violent gastro-cn-
teritis, whose symptoms 80 ne ,rly resem-
BILE typhoid fever rs to make differeu-
tial diagnosis we'll nigh impossible, but
with obstinate, most uncouquerable con-
stipation. The disease is very fatal.
The cow usually dies in week in vio-
lent convulsions,
A large reward has been offered for
an antidote to the poison, aud it has
been analyzed North and South without
avail, for no light has bean thrown on
its chemical constitution.

MODEL FARMER s.--Nearly every
section has what might properly be
styled few model farmers. At least
they are such comparatively speaking.
Their farms, their barns, their houses
and surroundings are far above the
average in every respect. These farm
ers show degree of thrift and fru.
gality too that is above the average.
They are on time with their work, they
get the top prices for their produce,
they live better and nicer than their
neighbors, and generally are respected
more aud held in higher esteem than
any other set Of men in their commu-
nifty. They are held up as examples
for young men just starting out in life,
aud as the title implies, are good models
to pattern after. If asked for reason
why some men arc leaders in their line
of business it would not be hard to give.
First, they study their business. They
60 into the details and master them
thoroughly. They work with their
brains as we'll as with their hands.
They systematic and economize. They
take time to read and post themselves,
and in this way get the advantage of
others experience. They keep up with
the times in every way and BY doing
their duty in the way that common
sense and good judgment dictate they
clearly earn the title of model farmers,
and should enjoy the respect that such
title oohmands,-Nahonal iStockman.

QUITs A LIVELY LITTLE FiaHr.--A bloody
tight occurred on Tuesday night 10 Litlle's
Magnolia Street barroon. Johu Kirby was
drinking and quarrelsome. He picked q
fight with Scruggs, but Scruggs did not re-
sent It. Mr.. John Little told Kirby that he
must not come into his bar aud insult his
customers; that IL was the second row ,ha,
he had raised there that evening. Kirby
turned on bin and called him - liar:
Little promptly knocked Kirby down and
Worth Little jumped on his face. II was
stamped out Of recognition. wo, tn Little
seems to have used his knife 10 some way
and got his own hand cut. The account. of
the sfiair are confused and contradictory but
they all agree that Kirby was badly used
up.--Spartosbry Herald.

cannot talk very much in public, and he
does not try. He is DOT worth $4,000,

strangers seat in his pew at church.
He is always ready to watch with sick

house plants in winter mainly that they
may be able to send little bouquets to
friends and invalids,. He fiuds time

Ridgeway, s. G,

STRAW AS A REsoURCE.-Grain-
threshing is at hand: aud what shall be
done with the straw? In the great
grain growing. regions little thought is
given it. It is often burned, loosely
stacked, or spread about the barnyard
or fields whore threshed, or any way to
get rid of it. Straw is valuable fod-
der aId.. should be housed or we'll
stacked and fed out to stock in winter
1t has been demonstrated in these col
umns that straw and less than bushel
of barley or its equivalent in other
grain will winter sheep we'll and that
straw and four quarts of oats day will
do the same for n horse that is not
working. IF any one will take the
trouble to compare the value of these
with what it costs TO winter such stock
with hay it will be seen that it is wise
to save the straw carefully and make
such use Of it. 1t is two valuable to be
used as bedding for animal; cheaper
material for this purpose can be obtained
either dry muck, earth, leaves or saw
dust
All know that hay will winter an animal
well and straw and grain in the proportion
named are the equivalent of hay in their
ingredients; 2 aud z make 9 as well as
aud 4; all of the same elements are in
each of the two groups. A quantity of
straw IS usually estimated at the value
of the plant-food it contains, and it may
be decomposed and made available for
growing plants next year or the year
after, but when fsd to stock it is avail
able Immediately. Wheat all the other
grains make good manure, and would
as soon think Of casting them into the
baruyard for this purpose as straw.
What to do with the straw then can be
answered in four words-feed it to stock.
If not stock enough ON hand to con-
sumo it, buy breeding ewes in November
and carry them through the winter for
less than fifty cents head, and in the
spring they will be worth double their
first cost. have seen this done seve-
raj times.-GALEN WILSON.
