Paul Conway's Wife.
BY 2. L.


The August sun beat with fierce heat
upon broad, ripe field of yellow wav-
ing wheat, and upon the band of reap
ers before whom its golden glories
were being laid low; with steady,
equal stroke the men swung the great
cradles, s;and threw out the sheaves to
the binders who followed close behind.
With bare chest and brown sinewy
arms, they toiled, losing no time by
the way, for the owner of the farm
welded the foremost cradle and the
golden grain was shedding before his
eyes. AS they reached the end of the
field, woman stood before them, hold
ing a little boy by the hand. The
woman's eyes and cheeks were hollow,
and her hair hung in thick masses of
grey upon her forehead. Her bent
form and haggard look seemed those
of an old woman; but, looking again,
you would see that sorrow had laid a
heavy hand upon her and withered up
her youth and beauty before its time.
Her dress and appearance were those
of an Irish emigrant, and her sac, !,
strange look; as she gazed on the rough
Canadian landscape, showed that she
had yet to become accustomed to new
scenes. The boy was bronzed, dark
eyed, dark haired urchin of about sew
en- years old, 1.-THE and active as an an
telope; he stood holding his mothers
hand in his, and looking on the group
of men before him, with eyes of eager
coriosity. 1s3 '.'ai
els Paul Conway herea" said the
woman's voice.
"Aye," answered tall man who
leaned upon his cradle near, "who
wants Paul Conway?" tioi
"Mary Conway, his wife, and James
Conway, his son." "rejoined the woman
"You sent for your wife and child, and
now by Gods help we are come"
The man dropt the cradle and start
ed back, trembling visibly; both he
and the woman were deadly pale.

"God is my witness, l am your wife

Fattening Hogs.

H.
BY this time in the season, hogs in
tended for slaughter should be we'll
along in fatten, and the process from
now on, should be carri,d on as rapidly
as possible. It is in The main true, that
bushel Of corn in the warm weather
of autumn, will produce as much pork
as bushel and half in the cold of
December. Especially is this true,
where, as is customary in the West,
hogs are kept in yards with poorly COW
cred sheds to sleep under, and for pro-
lection from storms. 1t is not often
that the rise in price pays for waiting
for late market. Fattenrapidly and
sell early, il generally a good rule. as
A successful pork feeder of Campaign
Co., tells us that he finds it advantage
Gus to soak his corn before feeding to
his hogs. He is is fortunate enough to
have a running stream of water near
his yard, in which he sinks a box, and
into this box throws his corn, and lets
it remain till it is thoroughly soaked.
He gives about q teaspoonful of eop-
peras, dissolved, and fed in the slops,
to each hog, per week, and occasional
ly little sulphur. Charcoal, common
Illinois bituminous coal, or rotten wood
is also kept constantly before them, ol
which they make way with large qusn
titles. ! He salts freely, BY these
means. his hogs are kept iu good health

that cannot be easily adopted by an
farmer, and to those to whom it is new
we confidently recommend it. a.
