Hoes WANT SULPHUR. Whether hogs re.
qnire sulphur as an essential to their health.
or whether 1t is sought by them as condi-
ment, may not be known for certainty. But
one thing is sure, they devour it with greed
whenever It IS TO be found. It is for this pur-
pose, probably, that they eat large quantities
OF soft coal, which contains large amount Of
sulphur. Perhaps this is the most ecouomi-
cal method of supplying hogs with sulphur
during the winter, when they require a good
deal OF carbon. But in the summer, ii is bet.
ter to feed it to them in substances that con-
tain the less carbon, on account Of their pro,
ducing less heat Mustard is one Of the hes,
things for this purpose, and on that account
some of it should be sown into every pasture
into which hogs are turned. Ii hogs are
kept up, or are in small yards, it is we'll to
supply them with wild mustard that grows in
fields or highways, or to cultivate some Of the
better varieties for them. They will eat its
leaves. flowers, seeds and stalks,

PUBLIC SWIMMING BATHs.-Why Is IL that
with all our boosted civilization and progress,
otner peoples of the past and Of Today. from an
Gent Rome to modern Turkey, were and are in

seaports Of Sweden, Denmark and Norway
swimming baths abound, and men, women and
children daily practice what we preach. New
York is again feebly discussing the natatoriu m
question, but in London they seem to bs max.
ing some progress. A gentleman OF that city
proposes to establish large inelosed swim ming
baths in each OF The parks OF the city, aud also
throughout the populous districts along the in
land water courses, and to this end he Is en-.
couraged by the Intentions Of the Admiralty,
who contemplate erecting something Of this
kind for the naval cadets at Dartmouth. The
advantage Of these inclossd swimming places
is stated to be their size, coeapness nothing to
pay for water, and mat they can be used
throughout the day. What public spirited
citizen of Washington will start the enterprise
here. And thus earn the thanks Of our perspiriag
and dust-grimed population, and the title Of
public benefactor, besides putting money in his
purse1 Wafer - plentiful. there are many good
sites along our river front, the buildings need
