own theory OF pork-raismg, based upon
experience, observation and probably d
little philosophy Of things, L written for
the benefit OF others. would be about a.
follows:
During tie hot summer months
would feed v.ry little solid feed, such as
corn in the ear, or uncracked. Iwould
keep hogs Dpon green feed constantly,
either grass, oats or rye, and feed them
al r"Gular intervals, once or. twice a
day, upon mashed feed, either shorts,
chopped oats or rye, bucawheat, etc,
fed ia troughs. When fed in this way,
and at the same time allowed access to
water and shade. hogs viii bear crowd
ing through the hot months a very good
time, If not the best, 10 take on flesh.
This puts them in the best condition Tor
corn feeding, which commences about
the first Of September, when the new
crop j. still soft and tender Treatedin
this way hogs become probably a. per
feet as any method would make them.
Upon the whole, believe it the cheap

and wise but possesses several cardinal
virtues IL addition:
'''The most beautiful woman 1 have
ever known was a farmers wife who at
tended to the household duties for a
family of four, and also assisted in gar
dening and the light farm work: and yet
| never saw her hands rough and red.
and never even saw a frcczlo on her
nose. Impossible, you say; how did she
manage never asked hrr, but Size had
some envioH- neigIbors who went sloucli-
ing around w:jh red, scaly hands. sun
burnt faces, and hair matted with dust
and oil, who let he into the dreadful
secret. Thcy Informed me with many
an omiHous shake Of the head that She
wss just ia" proudest mink that ever
lived; THAI she actually wore ind;a-rub-
Der gloves wien she used jlie broom and
scrubbinE-brusl, and always when she
worked outdoors; that size also had Il
bonnet Ilaae Of oil-slk, completely coy
ering the head, face and neck. leaving
only aperturcs for seeing and breathing.

wind and dust. Did You ever hear Of
such dep:uvity. She also fastened her
dishcloth toa stick 50 that she need not
put her hands in hot water. For the
same reason -!ie accomplished hcr iauu-

greatest lady III the land. WIS more than
her paticEc" cou!d endure. And her
husband. lie had such a satisfied ey-
preston that it was Il perfect agsrava-

He deserved to be happy, because he
encouraged and helped her to cultivate
beauty III herself, her family and her
home; ard don't know but her success
belonged to him. because he

wouldn't Iei her touch work until she was
