     (2.) Used as fuel, a substitute for firewood, which was with
   difficulty procured in Syria, Arabia, and Egypt (Ezek. 4:12-15),
   where cows' and camels' dung is used to the present day for this
   purpose.
   

DUNG. Manure. Sometimes it is real estate, and at other times personal 
property. When collected in a heap, it is personal estate; when spread out
on the land, it becomes incorporated in it, and it is then real estate. Vide 
Manure.
