Almost anything in the line of Dry Goods can be found at Bogart’s. In Januar3G 1867, I took charge of the plantation belonging to the heirs of Mrs. E. M. Eodwell in Warren county. I found twenty sight year old hogs on the farm; they had been running on clover the previous summer and fall. In Janu ary ’67, they were taken sick with what was called cholera, and nearly all died. I will say here that my brother, J. J, Rodwell had an interest in the hogs, and took six of them to his plantation four miles distant, and put them with his oth er hogs. I think the whole six were taken sick and some of them died—while not one of his others took the disease,— Since 1867 I have raised but little clover on thisplantation, nor have I Lad a case 0! cholera until this summer. I sowed twelve acres in the Spring oi 1875, and my hogs ran on it last fall and had access to it since early spring. About three or four weeks since they commenced getting sick. It struck me clover was the cause, I had thirty-five six months and year olds, including sows. As soon as the cholera made its appearance, I took six of the best hogs and turned them in the woods—neither one of the star has been sick—while every one of the others that remained, except three or four, have been sick and several have died. I had five sows with young pigs—two of which had only seven pigs between them. I put them on clover, both have died ; and all the pigs will, as every one is sick and blind. The three sows and pigs that have been kept off the clover are in a healthy condition. At our mill we raise hogs also, blit no clovei-, and I have nev er known one of them to have the chol era. I do not wish to be understood as say- ing that clover will kill hogs every vear but in all cases of cholera that have come under my observation, the hogs had been running on clover. I recollect that at m}' plantation, since the war the hogs ran on clover two years; the first year I lost none, the second year I lost nearly my entire stock. Since then I have raised no clover there nor have I heard of a case of chojera. Others may raise clover for hogs—but I never expect to. For horses sheep and cattle nothing is its equal, and I expect to raise it for these kinds of stock, ■T, D. Rodwell in Warrenton Gazette. SAM WILEY.
