Hog Cholera.

Mr.. j. S. Long, Of Jasper county,
Iowa, who has had much experience
in raising hogs, gave q few hints al
the recent stock convention at West
Liberty that may be Of value to our
readers. We clip from the last num-
Der of the Western Stock Journal and
Farmer:
"Make concentrated lyc into good
soap by the usual rule take one pail
of soap to fifty hogs; put 1t in a ket-
tie; add water and two pounds OF
copperas boil it; then add dishwater
and milk Cor anything to make il
taste good) till you have about what
the fifty hogs will drink. Place
enough of the mixture, while warm,
for twenty-five hogs to drink, in
troughs, in separate lot. Just as
you are ready to let the hogs in scat
ter two pounds of soda in the troughs
the object is to have it foaming as the
hogs come to drink. Be sure that
every hog drinks, and If he will not
drink put him in the hospital, and il
you cannot get him to drink then
knock him in the head, for he will
give the cholera to the rest. After
twenty-five have had oil they will
drink, let in twenty-five more, and
continue until tho whole are treated.
The next day Igo through the same
operation. After the second day
skip day, then give two days, and
you may turn them out cured.
generally give the same dose once a
week to my hogs. An important
point is to make the hog drink, and,
if he would not take it any other
way, add new milk or put in sugar.
Mr.. Long offered to pay any man
10 cents pound for every hog he
could not cure, provided the hog was
not past drinking when he took him
in hand.

Hints For Bret Harte.

From The Springfield mass Republican.
Montana has been Territory only
|; thirteen years, but it has had q His
torical Society for twelve of them,
which has just issued its first volume.
Its chief interest centres in mining
adventures, especially Of the remark
able character, James Stuart. His
Journal of the disastrous Yellowstone
expedition of 1868, annonated by two
Of his surviving comrades, exceeds in
pioneer romance anything "Poker
Flat" has produced. Stuart's band
was attacked at night by band of
Indians, and several were killed out
right. One man who was fatally shot
blew out his brains SO as not to be a
burden to his retreating comrads !;
and another, named Geery, who acct
dentally shot himself, insisted on fol-
lowing his example. Putting the
muzzle of his pistol to his breast, Gle
was about to fire the fatal shot when
Jim said: For Gods sake, Geery,
don't; but if you will do 1t, don't
shoot yourself there, 1t will only pro-
long your agony. If you must do it
place the pistol to your temple To
which Geery replied: Thanks Jim,
and may God bless you all and take
you safe out of this As he placed
his pistol to his temple, the men, with
weeping eyes and full hearts, turned
to walk away, a. they could not bear
to see him fire. He pressed the trig.
ger, and the cap only exploded. I
then appealed to him, saying: sGeery
for Gods sake, don't; this Is warm
ing.' To which he paid no attention,
nor made any reply, but rather SEEM
ed to be soliloquizing, and said; 81
know not what to think of that; 1t
never snapped before Cooking his
pistol again, he engaged q few Sec
onds In mental prayer, and again
pulled the trigger that launched him
into eternity

A correspondent OF the st. Paul

A correspondent of the st. Paul
Pioneer Press says: would never
sell q pound of fax straw, unless the
could pay me more for
it than has ever been paid at any Of
the mills that / have any knowledge
of, viz, from S. to ~ per ton. / have
raised flax for the last 20 years, but
only in the last few years have I
found of what value the straw was
for stock. I consider a rick of good
fax straw with the chaff mixed
through it worth more than rick of
prairie hay. If some of those who
are burning up their straw will come
to my place and see my stock that
have run to rick of fax straw this
winter with very little else to eat,
they will never burn any straw. 1t
is not we'll to let our straw lay in the
field until it is rotten. Ny expert
ence is that if the flax is tolerably
ripe, to thrash it in three days after
it is cut, then the straw is bright, and
there is substance in the chaff; and I
have never found any machine that
will save all the seed, and Of course
that goes into the straw and chaG and
there is nothing that will fatten stock
faster than flaxseed or oil cake. Our
fax in this township averaged this
last season about nine bushels to the
acre.

How TO Cook Rice.

Mr.. r. B. Thu:ber, of New York,
writing from Japan to the American
Grocer, gives the following account of
the Japanese method of cooking rice :
"They do know how to cook rice
here, though, and for tho benefit of
grocers and consumers in the United
States, / investigated the matter.-
Only just enough cold water is pour
ed In to prevent the rice from burn
ing to the bottom of the pot, which
has q close-fitting cover, and, with .
moderate fire, the rice is steamed
rather than boiled, until it is nearly
done then the cover is taken of, the
surplus steam and moisture allowed
to escape, and the rice turns out .
mass of snow-white kernels, each sep
arate from the other, and as much
superior to the soggy mass We usual
ly get in the United States as fine,
mealy potato is to the soaked
article. l have seen something APP
preaching this in our Southern States,
but I do not think even there they
do it as skillfully as it is done here,
and in the Northern States but very
few persons understand how to cook
rice properly. / am sure that If cook
ed as it is here, the consumption Of
this wholesome and delicious cereal
would largely increase in America"
