NOTES ABOUT NEIGHBORs.

A feast of snakes might not be relish
ed by overly fastdious epicures, but
three sons of William Nixon, negro
farmer living in Sumter county, agree
that it is an excellent dish. Saturday
Nixon killed three large black snakes in
his field, throwing the writhing mass of
reptiles upon brush pile and setting it
afire. The dead snakes were nicely
roasted by the burning brush, and when
NtxOn'S boys found the aromatic pile
they turned in and devoured the snakes
entirely.
Probably the largest single shipment
of cattle yet made from southwest Geor-

number that will be shipped as the sea-
son advances.
