the quarries and ran, of the Smth and
"Wet, are to be found the best, the safest,
nd the mott Day'ng investment that can be
made. Already capital is seeking these,
and as money, like shecp always goes with
a rush, enormous rises in the value oi sucn
properties imy be expected, as they come
more into demand, anl as their reil rich

CURE FOR BLACKLEG.
A California stockman states that he
has tried the following reme ly and knows
to be a sure cure for blackle. Others
that have tried it corroborate his ex
perience. It is as follows: "Equal parts
of sulphur, saltjtetre, garlic, asafcrtida
and lard, beaten vp together and made
into balls about tbe i:e of a large buck
shot, one introduced into the side of the
mck of each animal, by making a srnal
opening in the hide and loosening it down
ward from tho incision thus forming
small pocket in which the ball of paste is
thrust"
We know nothing of the remedy our
selves, but as it ia given as a s ure cure it
is worth a trial.
