Meeting of the Rome Book Club. On Wednesday afternoon, May 4th Mrs. Carey Rollins proved herself < most charming hostess when she en tertained the Rome Book Club. Th< meeting was called to order by th< president, and roll-call was answerec by state current events. The finan eial affairs of the club were attende<: to, and the literary program was carried out. Two excellent papers wen read, one by Miss Halene Clark anc the other by Mrs. Rollins. A description of the pageant to be held at Winthrop on the sixth was also read, anc members of the Club expressed great interest in th(* costumes, folk dances and other features of the pageant. The hostess served a sweet course which was enjoyed by those present. Mrs. Troy Cribb assisted with the music during the social hour. o Oak Leaves Poison Stock Oak leaves, if eaten continuously by cattle, produce a sickness which frequently proves fatal, investigations conducted by specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture show. Most oak-leaf poisioning, the jpecialists say, occurs in the spring, for at that time there is a scarcity of green forage on many ranges and the craving which stock have for green food leads them to eat the leaves in excessive amounts. In order to cause sickness, however, oak leaves must be eaten almost exclusively. If eaten with other food, the animals are not injured. It has been found experimentally that as small a quantity as 3 pounds daily of alfalfa hay fed in connection with oak leaves prevented poisoning. Observations on the range and experimental feeding both show that some cattle may eat oak leaves for a long time with no definite bad effects, and some will even eat them exclusively with no harm. Generally speaking, those that are injured show the results only after eating a considerable quan/ tity through a rather prolonged period, usually from 16 to 35 days. The specialistspoint out that the oaks on many ranges furnish a most important element in summer feed when additional sources of forage are available, but th^/ urge that care be exercised during the spring that cattle be not admitted to summer range at too early a date, for oak leaves are well advanced before the appearance of the grasses. o The County Record is the only newspaper published in Williamsburg County. o NOTICE!
