When the pasture is fed off, the smoke-heaps are established in a fresh place. They are generally enclosed by a slight fence, to prevent the horses from coming too near the fire. In Summer the rolling of thunder-storms can be heard in the mountains, but they have little influence on the great plains. * These dimokurys are large heaps of fallen leaves, moss, and damp wood; the thick smoke which comes from tlicm drives away the musquitos; they are placed both in the pastures and near the houses, ...so that the in- habitants pass the whole mosquito season in a constant cloud of thick and pungent smoke.
