SNAKES SWALLOW COWS HORN.
Both Die Thus Inpalcd and Are
Taken Home by the Cow.
(Greenville Refractory

"
If you could have seen the bulge OF
Sheriff Dudley's yes when n Of
his COWS came home with a large
black snake dangling from ach horn,
you would have seen almost as great
a sight as that Of the snakes.
The sheriff runs a large dairy and
has a number Of COWS. one of them
is an old COW with extra long, slen-
der horns and this was the COW that
brought in the snakes, which had evil
IDENTIFY attempted to swallow her
horns, making a partial SUCCESS
though still 9 fatal failure.
An after thought presented a pos
sible solution. That vas about the
folloWing: that morning this COW
had gored an old rooster that persist
ed in eating with her. That left the
smell of chicken on her horns. Iome
b~lack-snakes are extra fond of chick
en-. Therefore, finding the smell of
chicken in the air, the snakes pro
ceeded to investigate, tracing it to
the COW, which must have been lying
down asleep, when they mistOok her
horns for osmething akin to chicken
and proceeded with the swallowing
act. Each snake took a separate
horn. W1fen the swallowing act had
been so afr completed that the snakes
mouths reached the COWS he25, there
was a halt and owing to the formation
Of snakes mouths, especially for the
swallowing act, there was no escape
for the snakes, but to stay there and
die. There must have been consid-
erab Bile Squirming and a scared COW,
though she was apparently uncon-
scious of her unusual adornment
when she reached home that evening
they had to be cut off the cows horns.
The snakes were evidently mates and
in death they were nigh together.

power being furnished by a gasoline
engine installed for the purpose. The
farmer who has been at a loss how to
improve his road can find out all
about it by attending the train ex-
hibit. :
The tour being made by the Road
Improvement Train is one of the
most extensive ever arranged for an
educational campaign, covering as it
will practically all important points in
the territory traversed by the South
ern Railway and affiliated lines. The
tour will be in progress until october,
the last exhibition to be given during
the good roads convention to be held
in that month at Richmond.
Road Bearing Expense.
In running this train the Southern
Railway is handling it without charge
to the government or the people, and
all the lectures are free. President
Finley Of the Southern railway is an
ardent advocate Of good roads, belleV-
that their construction will result
IN great benefit to the people of the
South, who's Interests he considers
are identical with those of the railway
system he heads. The management of
the Southern Railway realizes the vast
economic Importance of a system OF
improved wagon roads in b South,
and that in tne1r COHStTucllOn tue
prosperity that will come to the sec
ton will in turn reflect on its own
prosperity.
This week the Road Improvement
will finish its tour in North
Carolina and will enter Virginia for a
month. 1t has been in the State for
practically a month, the whole North
Carolina schedule lncSudlng ABOUT
forty stops. After touring Virginia
the train will come South to cover
South Carolina and finish Georgia and
Florida, before winding up its notable
ampaign in Richmond.

which will doubtless prove Of great
benefit to them in their work and all
associations working for highway i'm
provement are urged to participate in
the meeting. The attendance Of the

influence in behalf Of the building of

welcomed at the train.
