A dispatch from Lawrence, dated
the 12th inst., last Saturday, says:
The prohibition issue was yester
day settled in Gwinnett county in
favor of whisky, majority 179. A
small vote was polled, and little in

ky, or anti pool hill party, ifre re
juicing. Properly submitted, Gwin

the first check the prohibition par

if the telegram is to be believed,
they were defeated by their own

News from the Western wheat
crop is not good. Dispatches from
Kansas and Illinois agreeing upon
a condition of the crop which will
lessen the yield one-half. Some
portions of Ohio entertain a iiope
for an average crop, while the cen
tral counties show a decreased av
erage. Very little injury was done
in Michigan by the severe weather.
Great damage is reported in.the
southern counties of Indiana. A
crop of 1,400,000 bushels is expected
in Missouri, while the decreasing
average in Iowa will bring the
product of that state down to 7,000,-
000 bushels. Upon the whole, while
some portions of the West enter
tain a hope of an everage yield, the
prospect in the aggregate is by no
means flattering.
lowing subject: The best breed of months can he filled up with
cattle tor this locality, our recourses
lor feeding milch cows, and raising
heel cattle. Mr. W. II. Bullard was
made chairman, These appointed
to open the discussion were absent.
Mr. F. A. Jones was called upon and
expressed Ids views ns follows: I
think the matter of breeds is a fancy
with the breeder. The Devon is
perhaps the best cow for this locali
ty. I am trying Jerseys, and think
them the host butter cow, they have
made tlie best butter test of any of
the breeds. The short horns are the
best beef cattle, and the 3 folsteins
give the largest quantity of milk.
In regard to feeding, 1 think like
for every other animal a variety of
food is best, peas, corn, cotton seed,
turnips, potatoes, shucks Ac, The
potatoo is an excellent food, it does
not give a had taste to the milk as
some things do.
Mr. Belt tell us what heel can he
raised at hero profitably.
Mr. Jones, 1 don’t think it can ho
raised for loss than ten cents with a
profit.
Mr. Belt was next called upon and
said in the course of his remarks, he
thought every pound of butter lu
got cost him its full value, that it
was necessary to keep several cows
to make enough, and it took a great
deal of food for them, rather than
do without milk and butter.
Mr. J. M. Jones gave us his expe
rience with the dairy, he said the
food for liis cattle consisted of cot
ton seed, corn, rye, oats, potatoes
and what he could get for them. It
was his experience after feeding on
green rye alone for any length of
time it gave the blitter a disagreea
ble taste.
Mr. F. A. Jones: Turnips will do
the same thing unless mixed with
other food.
Mr. Belt: IIow about carrots?
All agreed that this vegatable
gave to the milk no unpleasant
properties.
Mr. J. 51. Jones continued by say
ing the great trouble in the dairy
business here was the lack of good
markets, and when butter got down
to fifteen and twenty cents a pound
it was unprofitable. He had fatten
ed one beef this winter and sold
around home at a profit.
sort to corn forage and cured grain,
with silo food for winter months.
These supplemented with cotton
seed meal (again) gives in rotation
the supply for the whole twelve
months. This latter food (cotton
seed meal) is not a good nutritious
albuminoid, hut will make milk and
butter taste if fed in quantity and
regularly, as will turnips and other
substances flavor disagreeably the
cow’s secretions, and must he fed
cooked or diluted with other sub
stances.
The finest mixture of rich dairy
food the writer has ever improvised
for himself, is equal parts of corn
meal, pea meal, rice flour and cot
ton seed meal; two quarts of this
mixture (well mixed in a revolving
barrel or screen for this purpose),
given twice a day with a plenty of
roughness of corn, fodder, hay, cut
straw or shucks. A mash of this
mixture with cut straw, shucks or
hay, even better than fed separate
ly. Or, if cooked with turnips makes
as complete food as can be given.
Oats in sheaf or oat meal maybe
added to this with eyen better re
sults.
It were host to keep a milch cow
on ration of grain all through her
full flow of milk summer and win
ter. These pastures of innutritions
grasses help to dispense with for
age, and the grain gives cream for
good butter. It has been my expe
rience that it is best to leave oil" cot
ton seed meal as warm summer ap
proaches. ’Tis too heating and will
dispose to murrian, I have evidence
to believe. This food suits best for
cool climates or winter and spring
months here. W. B. Junes.

F.d. So. Live-Stock .Journot:
Whilst our mild climate far south
give us many native resources for
raising beef cattle with little ex
penditure of cultivated crops, for
short winter supply, we cannot rely
upon our native indiginous grasses
for good milk and blitter, even in
spring and summer months.
The immense area of woods,
swamps, old fields, of abandoned
plantations, furnish great range for
cattle with a sufficiency of food of
a coarse nature, for raising fair beef,
when fed in fall or winter with
grain to give the flesh the finest
flavor, equal to any produced on the
the richer soils of the West. These
indiginous weeds and grasses, how
ever, will not give (alone) rich
cream and butter. Tho wire grass
of our piney woods, when burnt off
in spring and in luxurious growth,
answers all purposes for maintain
ing cattle in good condition, but will, note, who had a daughter, a rosebud
not give milk. Our common broom-j of a girl, whoso beauty struck a re
sedge, for a short interval, possess sponsive chord in the heart of the
the hawks.
Mr. Cross gave the following
the best plan lie had ever heard of:
Place on an elevated platform a
pigeon or chicken in a cage and
then set a trap on the platform,
strong enough to hold a hawk, with
a dead bird under it for bait. The
hawk attracted by the bird in the
cage will invariably go under the
trap after the dead one.
Mr. W. II. Bullard’s reception of
the members was cordial and kind.
The ladies as usual placed members
under many and lasting feelings of
kindness for their splendid enter
tainment.

The manner in which he got his

methods of the man. Being on a
journey in the interior, ho was en
tertained by a merchant of some
father’s distress, gave in and begged
the old gentleman to yield ids con
sent. lie reluctantly did so, and at
tended the most brilliant wedding
feast that was ever known in Cen
tral America. The 1»ride received
a diamond necklace and coronet,
$•700,000 in money, and the finest

erty was restored to him, he was
established in the banking business
and became the fiscal agent of ttie
government, which is worth a small
fortune to him every year. Barrios
very generously forgave the old
man, and the two are now great
chums.
Mrs. Barrios is the loveliest wo
man in Guatamala,j beautiful in
character as well as in person, so
cially brilliant and graceful, charita
ble beyond all precedent in a coun
try where the poor are usually per
mitted to take care of themselves,
generous and hospitable, a good
mother to a fine family ot children,
and a devoted wife, loyal to all tho
president’s ambitions, and an en
thusiastic supporter of all his
schemes. Their rude courtship in
tensified tlie devotion of their mar
ried life, and the most ardent ad
mirer of President Barrios to-day
in his own household. There is a
tender spot in the tyrant’s heart, for
lie is devotedly attached to his wife
and children, whose portraits stand
always before him upon his desk in
the executive office. Like a wise
man who knows the perils which
constantly surround him, and the
uncertainty of the head which wears
a crown in these countries, ho lias
made ample provision for his fami
ly by purchasing for Mrs. Barrios a
handsome residence in Fifth ave
nue, near Sixty-first street, New
York, and investing about $1,000,000
in her name in other New York real
estate. His life is also insured for
$270,000 in New York companies,
which, it must he said, have taken
a hazardous risk, as there are hun
dreds of men who live only to see
Barrios buried. Very few of thorn
are in Guatemala. They do not find
the atmosphere agreeable here.
They are exiles in Nicaragua, Costa
Rica, Mexico, California and else

There were also several certifi
cates from parties in Vienna, Buena
Vista, Montezuma, Abbeville, Ilaw-

gia recommending Dr. Harmon for
his efficiency and success in cases at
those places. There were also sev
eral carefully prepared diagrams
and drawings of the human eye,
which displayed some skill and a
record of patients in South Carolina
and Georuia. In addition thereto
there were several copies of the
Dooly County Vindicator and the
Hawkinsville Dispatch, containing
complimentary notices of Dr. Har
mon and mailed to him in Savan
nah. All these indicate that the
owner of the valise was an optician
and occulist, and the further fact
that the receptacle was discovered
in that lonesome and out of the way
place naturally gave rise to several
questions. Was the property stolen
from Dr. Harmon elsewhere and
brought to that dreary place. Was
the man intoxicated and did he
wander to that place to sober off
or was he induced there and mur
dered ?In any aspect the affair looks
so strange that Mr. Walsh notified
the police officials last evening and
with Dr. E. J. Kieffer is making
strenuous efforts to solve the mys
tery. The place where the valise
was found is an out of way one and
is just the site that would be select
ed for a suicide or a crime. No one
seems to know Dr. Harmon and
the affair is wrapped in mystery.

A Mystery.
Savannah Times, 10th inst.
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Michael
Walsh the well-known drayman,
made a discovery that probably will
lead to the unearthing of a crime,
develop a mystery, or throw a light
on the vagaries ot a missing man.
It appears that Mr. Walsh has a
piece of ground under cultivation at
Springfield plantation, to which he
pays considerable attention and vis
its daily. It lies several hundred
yards west of the cotton factory, al
most on a continuation of Stewart
street . One side is bounded by Mus-
grove creek, whose banks are pro
lific in weeds, etc., and to burn and
destroy these Mr. Walsh visited the
place yesterday afternoon. After
building a fire and destroying some
of the; weeds and rubbish Mr. Walsh
saw something lying in the creek
that attracted lus attention. He
proceeded to examine and discov
ered a large leather valise hound,

I hav.o been afliicted with a dis

applied various remedies, but to no

ment announcing that Swift’s Speci
fic had cured Mr. James Dunning,

the end of seven months there was
not the least sign of tetter on my

Therefore, I cheerfully recommend
