from tip to tip. Mr. C. killed his
while Dr. U. wounded' his and cap
tured it alive. They also killed a
snake, which Mr. C. declared to be
32 ft. 5 in. in length and as large as a
telegraph pole. Dr. H. says his
Eagle was loaded for "bar," from the
way he showed fight when caught.
The Doctor even wished his Eagle
dead before he got to town with it.

Owing to circumstances, Bismarck
Township will fail to receive men
tion in the columns of the Journal
for a few weeks.
Mr. and Mrs. John Sissle of Co
lumbus Township were in Bismark
last week visiting John G. Dreher
and family; he also visited the
writer.
There was a reaper going on
Charles Hoagland's place last even
ing for sometime after sun down;
perhaps it kept going until the rain
stopped it about two o'clock iu tho
morning; we cannot state the last
as a fact, as we did not sit up until
that hour, to personally inspect
matters.
A fine spectacle was witnessed here
on the night of the 27th, in an ex
hibition of northern lights, which
shot up to a great distance; this
afforded an excellent opportunity for
the yonng folks to remain up; es
pecially for the girls, if their beaux
were there; we wonder if any of
them did practice this trick on their
parents.
Jacob Karline, while stacking
grain last week, came across a pretty
ugly customer in the shape of a hnge
bull-snake; he soon dispatched it,
however, and when dead it measured
snmethiug over five feet long, and
was as large as a man's arm. Every
one who has seen it pronounces it
the largest snake seen in these parts
Tor quite a number of years.
Hogs are still dying in great num
bers in this vicinity, Mrs. Karline
having lost about thirty, and George
Hodel almost bis entire lot; many of
the other neighbors have lost smaller
numbers, and still others have their
entire herds sick. Some have ex
pressed their opinion that hog
cholera is a result of filth, and nn
cleanliness in hog pens ; this may be
true. We saw in last week's issue of
the Journal that a gentleman from
Wisconsin, says that he fed his hogs
on oatB, whole, and although the
cholera was all around him he did
not loose a hog. This seems to be a
good plan as T. M. Wilson has been
practicing it for some weeks past,
and none of bis hogs are sick yet.
Another remedy in the Nebraska
Farmer is from a gentleman of
Ashland, Nebr. ; he says that giving
hogs salt brine and forcing them to
drink it, is quite a valuable remedy
though comparatively worthless ex
cept in case where 'the hogs have a
fever. No one in this vicinity has,
as yet, tested this remedy. Still
another one in the same paper is from
D. H. Webster, of Austin, Missouri,
which we give in full as follows:
A few days ago while in conversa
tion with a neighboring physician,
one who takes great delight in rais
ing and caring for fine hogs, I
learned of a new remedy for hog
cholera at least it was new to me
and as this dreadful scourge is re
ported in some localities, I propose
to give it publicity. If the remedy
proves efficacious it will be valuable
to bog raisers, and if it fails the ex
pense attending a trial amounts to
but little, as the vine grows in nearly
all parts of the country. The com
mon name of the plant is Poison Oak
or Poison Ivy; Latin, Toxicoden
drum; German, Qlftsumach. It is
found in the forests growing closely
to the bark of trees. The vine often
attains the size of one's arm. As
some persons are so sensitive to the
poisonous vapor that is emitted from
the plant causing an eruption of the
skin, it is best to handle it with
gloves. Cut the viae into pieces an
inch or two in length, boil a quantity
of them in water until the fluid be
comes a strong decoction, and use
this "without any stint" either in
swill or if the cases are so bad as to
refuse food by drenching; The
doctor informed me that be bad used
the remedy for several years in cases
of the hog cholera where be had to
drench them and that he had never
lost a case. Of course, success can
not be expected every time. We
hope those who are so unfortunate as
to have this disease in their herd will
give it a trial and report results. He
says there is no danger from over
dosing. This method also remains
untested in this vicinity, although in
other localities it .has been practiced
with success. We advise all persons
who have a great many hogs, and are
in danger of losing them to try some
of these methods of treating the dis
ease, and if they should not prove
valuable, it would at least save others
the trouble of a trial, and we are
sure there are a great many such
benevolent spirits in every com
munity. Chables.

Superintendent.
Harvesting is nearly finished, aud
people are busy stacking. Rye,
wheat and oats are excellent, the dry
weather did dot injure early grain as
much as it was feared it would, and
theraiu of the 22nd and 23d helped
the late oats to fill. So the crop of
small grain will not fall below the
average yield. Early flax is good,
but late sown was injured badly by
the drought. Corn looks well, and
as we are having frequent rains the
prospects are favorable for a fair
crop.
