The Da,ry,nen,s Association.

j. X. Curtis of Georgia, secretary OF
the State Dairymen's association, was
in Burlington recently, making pre-
paratory arrangements for the annual
meeting of the association to be held
here next month. Mr.. Curtis appoint
ed Mr.. +. G. Mower a committee to
assign space to exhibitors, to whom
all parties desiring to exhibit dairy
utensils should apply. He thinks the
outlook good for an enthusiastic meet
ing. A splendid list of prominent
dairymen from various States have
agreed to be present and give the
farmers and their wives attending, the
benefit of their experience and knowl-
edge. Among them are Prof. Smith
of the Farmers Institute, New York;
u. Il. Gilbert, editor of the Maine
Farmer; Farmer Ashberton, Worlds
Fair commissioner of dairy products,
from Nebraska, and ii. X. LOOMS,
who held the same position i'll his

La Grippe Again.

The reappearsnce of the ssgrips calls to

publisher of the Leader, Mexia, Texas. He

Later in the season he had second attack.
He says: .fn the latter case used Cham

MEMORIES OF FORT FISHER.

A soldier Who Was Buried Tor Thirty.
Six Hours in the Debris OF khe Fort.
, The funeral of Joseph Nelson took
place in Oakland recently, and when
the coffin was lowered into the grave he
was buried for the second time. The
first burial was twenty-seven years ago,
when he was entombed alive "a the ex-
plosion of Fort Fisher. where he was
buried in the debris for thirty-six hours
before he was found, and then he was
dug out for dead.
Joseph Nelson was then a lad Of TWEEN
ty-one, volunteer in Company Il of
the Sixteenth New York regiments, and
attached to Gen. Benjamin f. Buffers
division. He was at the storming of
Fort Fisher under Gen. Ames, with a
fleet under the command of Admiral
Terry. Fort Fisher was captured, and
when it was evacuated by the confeder-
ates the magazine was fred, and VIXEN
the union forces took possession the
| fort was blown into the air and the
union troops with it. Mr. Nelson was
buried many feet under the ruins, and
i was thirty-six hours before he was
found He was paralyzed from the
burial, and became sufferer from sciatic
rheumatism for his entire'life from the
effects of the shock and exposure. He
lever recovered, but was for awhile
able to perform the duties-of a conduc-
tor on light run on the Southern Pa
citc railroad.
Mr. Nelson was not always willing to
tell of his unusual experience of being
buried alive for such length of time
lie was very graphic in his account,
however, and this is the way he told it
shortly before his death:
1t all seemed like nightmare, or

of cows. c. V. Kent has some fine
horses and colts, also two studs by Ben
Franklin. The farmers make some
fine maple sugar.
Most of the farmers of Gouldsville

well and so has all the produce of the
farm, except mutton and wool; they
are very low. Horses are low here; la
Dor is low also. Some of the leading
farmers are John Stone, who keeps 20
