been before the courts for several

sources of revenue to the general '

Snakes In Cabbage.
In Truesdalonnd other counties
in Tennessee the eabbaijes have
been discovered to contain a snake
in the very center of the bud which
is in tile center the head. The
snake is described as beino almost
white and about the size of small
wrapping cord, and about 12 or 14
inches longr A woman can cut up
a cabbage and not see it, because

smaller pieces than four pints, this
leaves the snake in the center of
the hiul frequently Many people1
have been made sick from eating
the cabbage and some deaths have
occurred in that part of Tennesse
where this cabbage snake is found.
A child was made sick by the drink
inn of the water in which the cahl>ii|40
had been boiled, and the cook
was Recused of putting poison in
pot while boiltig the cabbage. To
prove her innocence of the charge
she drank of the same water and
died. Cabbage in that part of the
State cannot be sold at all, and the
crop ij being fed to the hogs. JI
would be well for people who eat
eabbage to examine the the heads
of all the cabbage they cut. cut into
small pieces before cooking.

the plan of Leader Mnrphy to let
