Coin and Currency.

Republican newspapers commenting on
the opinion of Chief Justice Chase on the
validity of the Legal-Tender act, can
readily see why debt contracted to be
paid in coin should not be paid in a de-
preciated paper currency. Such action
gives to the creditor less that he lent 1t
violates the contract, and is altogether un-
just.
The same newspapers can understand
why debts made since the passage of the
LegalTender act should be paid in cur
rency. To require coin would require
from the debtor much greater amount
than he received, or than he agreed to pay,
and would be altogether cruel and out
rageOus
All this is so plain that it seems to be
an affectation of simplicity and childishness
to state it, and yet, clear as it is, and true
beyond all doubt or cavil, the very news
papers reasoning thus cannot see why the
/ fivetwenty bonds ought to be paid in cur
rency. What clears their perceptions in
the one instance and darkens them in the
other?
The bonds were issued since the pas
sage of the Legal Tender act Treasury
notes were received for them. The con-
tract was to pay them In Treasury notes,
and this agreement was so explicit that
there could be no misunderstanding con-
corning it. What Justice is there in re.
quiring their payment in coin? Who
will answer ?-ChicdgO Times,

CollOquy about Growing Stock.

WHY is it that you always sell stock
so high ?" asked one farmer of another
1t is because l always keep them in
good condition" "But, if you put them
la condition just before you sell them,
why Is it not equally well or better, as it
saves fodders" But it does not save
fodder. What fodder is eaten goes to
make flesh, and it is that which sells your
stock" L can't see the object in keeping
your stock fat all along ~ 1t is because
the stock grows all along you get il so
much larger and finer, for what you miss
in the growth of an animal is lost for
ever you can never recover it, mind
you. This is the advantage it is some
thing of secret or the people general
ly will not believe it, The men who have
the fat stock and get the big prices, they
know it 4; they act on the principle"
Perhaps" " 1t is so with all stock
there is no exception. If you want the
best success you must begin when the ami
NAL is born he is then in your hands to
make large or small, saleable or unsafe

that makes him grow nothing else. Ii
you scrimp him he will be puny. You
must begin to fat your hog when the pig
is born. Or do you think that nature
will perfect your animal without the pro-
per quantity of food 1t is the food that
does il and nothing else. If little, there
can he but little if more, there must be
more growth" Yes, it will make fat,
but not develop MUSCLE as the hog"
What then if not enough food is given
to develop muscle, only to small extent,
Just enough To continue life ?" There
will, i'm my estimation, be about the same
height and length to the animal he will
be thin he will lack fat but think his
frame will be there about the same" "But

last month, when the shorts were left out
entirely.
In addition to the meal, the spring pig
had the milk of cow and heifer, and
was regularly fed, and was permitted the
range Of a pen about twelve feet long by
six feet wide.
1t is exceedingly rare that hog shows
such an average increase as the one first
named. Taking our Eastern spring pigs,
they are generally killed at from nine to
ten months old, and the general average is
not over two hundred and fifty pounds
growth of less than pound day.
We believe that our farmers could save
quite considerable sam by more care
full and generous feeding of their hogs.
The general plan is to keep them along
during the summer with slops, sour milk,
ETC., waiting till fall before feeding much
grain; whereas meal fed from the day the
pig is four weeks old till the day it is killed,
all that it will bear and keep healthy, is
money well invested. There can be NO
question about the matter if corn can be
bought for $1.20 bushsl, and pork brings
twelve cents pound. Hearth and Homo

Novel Use Of Feather Beds.

MOST of our readers who have ever
spent winter night in the houses of any
of our German citizens, will remember
how comfortably they repOsed between
two feather beds; one below for the pur-
pose of affOrding a soft couch to lie on,
and another above, as protection against
the cold. 1t seems rather strange that
this custom introduced from the Rhine
land is not copied by our own people,
since less weight of feathers than of al
most any other material is sufficient to af
ford abundant warmth to the sleeper.
Natures plan fer keeping birds warm, by
surrounding them with feathers, has never
been much improved on in all our appli.
ances for coverings by day or night The
substances that affords most warmth as
clothing, are those that contain most air,
in which respect there is hardly anything
that is the equal of feathers.
But it is not of the feather bed as a night
covering for sleeping persons, however
excellent it may be for that purpose, that
We proposed to speak. We lately heard
of its employment for quite another pur-
pose, which struck us very favorably A
Danish gentleman informs us that in the
north Of Europe the feather bed plays a
very important part in the raising of bread
The paste for the mornings baking is pre-
pared the afternoon before, by putting
the flour, yeast, and other ingredients
| in deep wooden bowl or tray
and when the fermenting process has well
commenced, the vessel, with its contents,
is placed on feather bed. A frame of
sticks, or wire sieve is now put over the
bowl, and above this is spread clean
towel or napkin. One end of the bed is
now brought over the covered vessel, and
the sides tucked in about it as carefully as
you would arrange the clothes about a
sleeping child.
In the morning, the paste will be found
to be as light as sponge, with never a
failure if the temperature of the sponge
was right when it was put to bed. The
philosophy of this action is very easily
explained. Yeast is only effective in
causing paste to rise between certain de-
grees of temperature. 1t is hard to keep
it at the desired heat in winter, without a
| great deal of care and watching. If, how
ever, the paste is surrounded by non con-
Quoting substances, like wool and feathers
the heat, which is produced by the fer.
mentation, will be sufficient to keep the
process going on. Doubtless, a box OF
! the requisite size to hold the vessel OF
paste might be fitted with lining stuffed
with feathers on all sides, that would
answer the purpose of the bed equally
well, and which would be at the same time
more convenient prairie Fd77ner

1t is creditable to the Democratic party,
and shows the ideas which its opponents
really entertain of it, that when man
like Mr.. Dawes rises up in the House of
Representatives and denOunces extrav-

Immediately denounced as either having
