It will be recalled that after the

of the county board. The protests
were thrown out by the county board
and at a later session Of the State
board the matter was again present.

matter of the protest in the recent

BLOODY GUN BATTLE FOUGHT.
Six Men Engage in Fatal Conflict in
Georgia.

Moultrie, Ca, Oct. 2.-At the old
homestead of the late Nathan Flow
ers in the lower part of this county,
Bert Williams is dead, Wright Flow
ers is dying, and it is believed Will
lam Flowers is fatally hurt tonight
as the result of terrific sK-handed
battle with rifle and pistols, news OF
which reached here to-day.
Sheriff Boyd and a big posse OF
deputies is on the trail Of John Hart
and his two sons, who are charged
with the shooting, and who are at
large, fully armed. 1t is alleged they
took Williams and the Flowers broth
ers by surprise, and that because OF
this all the casualties in the battle
were on one side, the Harris, father
and sons, ranging against the three
men who were shot.
The trouble occurred over a dis
pute about the division Of the estate
of Nathan Flowers. He died leaving
no children and since his death John
Hart, who married niece, has been
living on the place with Mrs. Flow
ers. The Flowers boys are nepheWs,
while Williams married niece. since
Nathan Flowers's death there has
been a wrangle owe the estate, 1t Is
alleged and trouble had been feared.
It is stated that the six men met
at the homestead and the quarrel was
renewed, the shooting ending the
dispute.
It is alleged that the Harts were
better armed than their opponents IN
the fight and that some Of the bullets
we're fired while the defeated party
was in fight; since it is said that
two Of them received fatal wounds IN
the back.
No word has been received since
the sheriff and his posse left here,
but it is feared trouble will follow
the attempt to capture the Harts.

FEEDING NEW CORN.
Injudicious Feeding One Great Cause
of So-Called Hog Cholera.

Many farmers associate the thought
Of new corn with "hog cholera and
the belief is common in some locali-
ties that the use Of new corn will
cause the disease. This may Indirect
ly be somewhat true, as the sudden
change to new corn is not unlikely to
produce a feverish condition which
would encourage the thriving Of any
latent disease germs. It is undenia-
BILE that swine appear to be more
generally afflicted with the disease
about the time new corn is made use
of, but an examination might show
that such a condition is rather to be
expected. When the new corn is
given they greatly relish the soft,
succulent, fresh food, and, If permit
ted to do so, will eat enough to
change their probable constipation to
acute diarrhea, and put them in a
condition which invites other all
ments.
Much of the so-called cholera
which comes in autumn is but the
diseased condition brought about by
a sudden change from limited dry
UlcL W q p1CIuOAd q VI thS hPpSSAHAoS
new corn. The temptation to rush
hogs off to market before cold wealth
er approaches should not encourage
the farmer to make too sudden
change in his methods Of feeding.
When the earliest corn is in full
roasting-ear stage it may be given,
stalk and all, in moderate quantity,
without any change at first in the
usual feeding. AS the corn hardens
it may be given more literally, but
by a gradual increase. By the time
the corn is fully matured the hogs
will have become well accustomed
to It.
Hogs that have had access to plen-
ty of green pastures are less liable to
be disturbed by green or new corn
than those previously kept in dry
lots. Where they have been pastur-
ed on rape or green, succulent food
of that character, the risk is greatly
diminished. Pumpkins are excellent
feed for hogs about to be put on
green corn. They supply succulence,
and their seeds serve well as vermi-
fuge.-From Coburn's Swine In
America"
