A Wonderful Cave.

In the range of mountains in Western
North Carolina, known as the Fork
Range" a most singular phenomenon
exists. It is a breathing Gaze. In the
summRT months a current of air comes
from it so strongly that a person can't
walk against it, while in the winter the
suction is just as great. The cool air
from the mountain in the summer is
felt for miles, in O direct line from the
mouth of the cave. At times a most
unpleasant odOr is emitted upO the
current from dead carcasses of animals
sucked in and killed by the violence.
The loss of cattle and stock in that
section in winter is accounted for in
this way: They range too near the
mouth of the cave. and the current car
ries them in. At times, when the
change from inhalation to exhalation
begins, the air is filed with various
hairs of animals not u%nfreuuentlv
b n e and whole ~carcasses are seen miles
from the place. The air has been known
to change materially in temperature
during exhalation, from quite cool to
unpleasautly hot, whitening vegetation,
within reach, and accompanied by a
terrible roaring ,igurgling sound, as Of a
poti boiling. 1t is ~unaccouuted for bv
scientific men who have examined if.
though no exploration can take place
1t is feared by ..mauv that q volcanic
eruption may break forth there some
time. Such things have occurred in
places as little uhexPeoted.-RicHn19nd

Grass and Pork.

Feed more grass q! These three words
contain and explain the entire theory
of that practice by which any one car
rake hog distinguishing the cholera
as profitable MS the raising of any other
kind of stock, if not more SO, on &C
count of their ready sale in n market
every year. When I say feed more
grass, [ do not mean to advise you to
turn your sows and pigs, shoats and
stock hogs upon a short crop Of any
kind OF grass, or upon nm old field in
which the nOxious weeds and briers lux
uriate, or from which the cream of the
best and richest heritage has been CROP
ped by your bunch of mules, cattle or
horses, and then expect your hogs to
flourish, grow and fatten for the
market, without feeding corn at all.
By no means for hogs kept on such
pasture must have corn, and that in
ample quantities every day, if you
would realize anything from their
growth. A small but excellent hog
raiser followed these rules He fed
about sixty-five acres in clover and rye:
while the clover was growing rapidly,
he turned in the smaller ones and
when it blossomed, he turned them all
IN until the rye was ripe enough, then
turned them all on rye to eat il down.
and in this way the clover and the rve
reseeds fields for years. Before the
clover came, there was always q good
blue grass pasture. The first of Octo-
Der they were put up and finished OF
corn. On this plan his hogs were al
ways healthy and his pork cheaply

4 Great Flower Bed.

You have heard of old bachelors
whims. There arc lots of them on
record. But Henry Shaw, OF st. Louis,
has given practical execution to the
most remarkable bachelors crotchet OF
the age. He is a ~Scotchman, Il million
afro, and some seventy-five years old.
He has constructed the finest private
fo~wer-garden in the world. 1t has $50
acres in it, and is a gorgeous marvel of
a garden. It has every flower in it OBJ
tainahIe over the world that will live in
the st. Louis climate.
1t is q bewildering paradise of floral
beauty. The flowers number by the
millions. It's cost no one can tell. Shaw
himself don't know. It is threaded by
walks and adorned with Conservatives
and lighthouses full of the rarest exot-
les. A force of one hundred gardeners
is needed to keep the place in order.
Shaw, it is said, spends his entire in
come from his millions in keeping it up.
He began the thing before the war, and
for several years he has opened it to the
public. Hundreds of thousands of Wis
itors resort to it. 1t is the chief attrae-
tion and curiosity for the stranger In
st. Louis to visit. And strange to saw.
no police guard it, and no flowers are
pilfered. This is the public reverence
to the mans generous enterprise.
We visited the elegant house at the
head of the garden. Apicture of Shaw
represents him standing among his
flowers. Two elegant p~rotraits of beau.
tiful ladies in the garb of the past day
represents some of his female progeni-
tors. A huge book is kept there for
visitors to record their names in.
A curious feature of the garden il
beds devoted to one flower. For in
stance, there is n large bed with every
variety of cactus, another with hun
dreds of verbenas, and so on. Every
thing is in prodigal profusion.
1t Is a curious notion this, that
prompts a rich man to devote a great in
come to n pct caprice, and that priu-
for the benefit of others. But
this very caprice, so unusual and so
expensive, il wrapped up his own per.
'onal aspiration. He thus makes his
celebrity. And why should a man not
to become known through his
gardens as we'll as through
lis craftsmanship or the achievements
If arms or genius?
Shaw is near the grave. He has, in
pursuance of his ambition, willed his
yardens to the city, on condition that
he city binds itself to keep them up.
The city has eagerly accepted the be-
Iuest, and thus, through private liber-
lity, gets without cost a public garden
lot surpassed in the world for masnif-
ence and beauty.
The garden will be forever dubbed
Shaw's Garden" and he thus travels
n to Immortality on the successful
ea~liEatien OF his stupendous and most
eautiful crotchet. -AHantu Cbnstiti ,
