No sooner is n settlement projected in any

cal printer, who announces his willingness
to undergo the severe aud unremunerative
labor of starting newspaper in wilder

those he is dosirous Of serving shares their

Their elevation and fitness for high honors

been so frequent, as to cease to cause special
remark. More than ailly-unjust is it, for

All men with capacity for journalism can

Hoo CHOLERA.-Mr. j. G. Long, of
Jasper county, says: Years ago lost thou.
sands of dollars worth of hogs, but for the
last six years have not lost any, and have
a remedy that will warrant. l have tried
it in thousands of cases, and never had
failure. l am now engaged in buying lots
OF hogs where cholera prevails; bought
two hundred and fifty recently and found
no trouble in curing them. My remedy is
this Make concentrated lye into good soap
by tho lsual rule take one pail of the soap
to 6fty hogs put it in a kettle, add water
aud two pounds of copperas,, boil it; then
add dish-water and milk, or. anything to
make it taste good, till you have about what
the hogs will drink. Place enough Of the
mixture, while wasm, for twenty. Eve hogs to
drink, in troughs, in a separate lot. Just
when ready to let the hogs in, scatter two
pounds of soda in the troushs 1.-THE object is
to have it foaming as che hogs come to drink.
Be sure that every hog drinks, aud if he will
not drink, put him in the hospital and if
you cannot get him to drink, then knock
him in the head, for he will give the clol-
era to the rest After twenty-five have had
all they will drink, let in twenty. five more,
.and continue till the whole are treated
The next day go through the same opera
tim. After the second day skip day, then
give for two days and you may turn them
Out cured generally give the same dose
once a week to my hogs. An important
point is toimake the hog drink, and, if he
wiltnot take It any other way, add new
milk or nut in sugar.-EDcIdn1e.

The HUMAN FAcE--The countenance
Of every nation defines the racteristics of
it's people. Every human face indicates
the moral trimming as we'll us the tempera-
meut and ruling traits of it's owner, just us
much as every human form indicates the
quality and amount of its physical exercise
This is. proven by the variety of human
faces everywhere visible. Those whose lives
have been given to physical labor, unbright-
ened by an education OF ideas, hayc always
stolid, stupid expression, even while their
limbs and muscles are splendedly developed.
The more savage the people, the uglier they
are in facial development. The very fea-
lures Of their faces are dsfgured by violent
and upgoverped passions. People whose
employments are intellectual have invariably
large, clear gaze, bright, outraying cx-
preston, as if from an inward light shining
through vase. Where fine organization
aud deep sensiblity accompany the prao.
tice Of intellectual pursuits, often the fea-
lures take on Transparent luminous look.
Persons endowed with powerful sensibility,
however plain their features, always have
nloments OF ahs0Tute pcauty.

EVILS OF DEEP PLowING.-Oue of the
most successful farmers gives us the follow.
ing record of an experiment at deep plow-
ing:
When boy upon the farm, his first eff:
fort with the plow, was on the hill side, q
yellow sandy gravelly knoll, but with con-
siderable admixture of clay
The plow ran too deep, aud after trying
in vain to adjust it, he left the team to drag
it through at depth of fifteen inches. 1t
was perfectly dry and mellowed up like an
ash heap. 1t was planted in corn but yiel-
ded nextto nothing. Having once plowcd
it deep it was tried again the next year at
the same depth, but with--about the same
result-no crop. The next experiment was
to seed it down. There was fair CATCH
For several years it was kept in pasture, but
yielded no better feed than the remainder
of the hill which had not been plowed.
1t was now turned down, again as deep as
before, ,rbut there was a change The land
had been revolutionized.. It now yielded
excellent crops, as good as any land on the
farm. Whether in grass or grain, the
growth was early aud strong The drouth
did not affect it. That was twenty years
since, andthough it has never had a load of
manure, the improvement still remains. 1t
has leen seeded down with clover and plas-
ter, and grows as rank clover as it is possi-
BILE to grow.
The trouble with those who complain that
deep plowing does not improve their lands.

who ought to have known better. He plswed
too. doep at first. Had he plowed six Inches
and subsoled four more the first year, then
increased the depth two or three inches, he
would have had gradual unbroken i'm
provement of his soil, instead of having to
wait five or six years before he saw the good
results. Most farmers have from four to
ten inches Of uncultivated soil, which by a
gradual process they might bring up to cul-
tivation. 1t is full OF plant food. the depo-
sits of centuries, which ouly needs the
