How to Make Hogs Extra Fat.

Hogs well feed and kept clean will fatten
rapidly. If true economy be consulted the
grain will be ground and cooked. Hogs have
good appetites and powerful digestive ap-
paratus. 1t is well known fact that the
appetite will usually fail long before the
hogs ability to digest well is impaired by
surfeiting. Though swine in thin flesh fat
ten very rapidly, fat hogs increase in weight
slowly, often greatly to the disappointment
of their feeders. This is due usually to the
failure of their appetite, and in case we
want hogs very fat, we seek to remedy the
difficulty by varying the food and stimula-
little and often, in order to make the ami
mails eat as much as possible. A good story
was lately told US of several neighbors who
year after year We'd with one another in try
ing to produce the latest hog, each taking
a pig from the same litter, or in some way
starting fair and square with pigs of the
same age and size, and doing his best to
make it as fat as possible before Christmas.
One of the farmers invariably beat the others
out and out, SO thoroughly that his good
luck could never be accounted for as acct
dental. The secret he kept to himself, but
being watched by some one determined to
find it out, the discovery was made that
Jealousy is a grand appetizer for hogs
First the pet monster was allowed to fill
himself to his hearts content, and when his
appetite was satiated, halfstarved shoat
was let in to the pen by side door. The
fat one would at once begin to fight it off,
and meanwhile, to gorge himself, simply
to prevent the poor squealing victim of un
satisfied cravings getting any food. This
was daily programme, and the result was
as stated. The fact is worth bearing in
mind, for in preparing hogs for exhibition,
or for some reason, we are often DESTROYS of
expediting the fattening process.

skimming it about twice half an hour be-
fore taking up throw in a dozen or more
small onions, or large onion cutinto eight,
six turnips first cut into slices, then into
dice; when ready, take up the meat, skin

is needed, reduce it and the proportions.

more to say of the Glass Works in our next.
While heating up tho big oven on Monday
afternoon, it was discovered, by the peculiar
smell Of burning wood, that something was ON
FIRE. The particular location of the danger was
soon discovered by the blaze breaking forth from
the wooded sills near the base of the furnace in
the main building and was occasioned by the
hot cinders falling from above. The masonry
TO secure the place was OF round boulders, and
having been done in winter, it was found that
the mortar filing had crumbled away, letting tbs
cinders through to the wood. The city engines
were promptly on hand and extinguished the
fire. The damage, though speedily repaired, is
said to have amounted to four or Ave hundred
dollaEs, principally, however, freEa the breaking
OF q number OF pots in the general melee.

EUREKA.-Nothing puts man in such good
humor with himself and all the world as the en-
joyment Of good meal, with the consciousness
that it has cost him no more than it ought to
cost. It is most natural, therefore, after enjoy
ing one of GEO. B. MrTCHELL's excellent dinner
at his Eureka Dining Saloon, an Madison street,
west of La Salle,) that we should feel like say
ing pleasant word ab-ut him. In short, George
not only gets up the best meal we can get at any
hotel or restaurant outside of Chicago, but at
about half the common cost and he does it in
such a CHEEKY, pleasant way, that his guests al
ways return to him.

Year Or two past has been resident of Lee coun-

1t was to bury by the side of the boys mother, his
oldest son. Wells Gedney most promising
young man, little over IL years Of age, who
was drowned on Monday in the dam across Rock
River, at Dixon. The young man had gone out
sslone IN small boat to shoot ducks, and having
fired at a flock, was thrown out of the boat by
the recoil of the gun. He seized the boat but
as that threatened TO pass over the dam with
him, he let go and struck out for the shore,
which lie was within rod or two Of reaching,
when he went down. His body was recovered
soon afterward, but too late for resuseitation.

VERY STRANGE.-It is funny that man can't

mess so large, threw aside their old delivering
wagon and came out with very handsome new
ono, and also made several new changes, in order
to meet their rapidly increasing trade. 90 without
further ceremony our brother editor must give
them hit Now We protest against this thing,
and say that we have bought goods of Riale
Bros, and know that there is nobody sells better
goods at lower prices in any city east or west
than they do. We know they sell the finest teas
