A Letter Forty Years in Transmission.

An application was recently received
at the dead-letter Office in Washington
from Palmer Gardner, of Burlington,
Rancine county, Wis, for a letter mailed
to him in 1885. This letter contained a GER
t%ificate of deposit for three hundred and
sixtydollars, issuedb by the. Onondago bank
of Syracuse, N. Y, and was sent from
there in October of the year mentioned,
by William N. Gardner to his brother,
Palmer Gardner, at "Detroit, Michigan
territory" Not being claimed at De-
troit, it was sent to the dead.letter office,
and thence back to the postmaster at
Syracuse, who, being unable to find the
sender, returned it to the dead-letter
office again, where it lay undisturbed in
the dusty files until the centennial ex-
hibitiOn. 1t was then conveyed, with
other curiosities of the dead-letter office,
to Philadelphia, and there CHANGED to be
seen by an acquaintance of Mr.. Gardner,
who informed him of his discovery, and
thus, after a lapse of more than forty
years, the letter reached its destination.
The postage on the letter, when it was
first mailed from Syracuse, was twenty
i've cents.

The Boston Cultivator contains the
following, prepared by Jonathan Tai
colt
Some years ago a Suffolk and Leicester
pig, mostly Suffolk, was fattened at one
and a half years old, the usual practice
in this section at the present time many
farmers tatten pigs at eight and nine
months old for their supply of meat, thus
saving the expense of a winters feeding
and getting a finer quality of meat
for table use. In August the hog
weighed three hundreda and sixty pounds.
The manner of feeding was three times
a day with boiled sugar beets, boiled in
a kettle holding nine bushels; the beets
being pulled and thrown into the kettle,
toys and roots, as they grew, were not
washed, but all adhering dirt rubbed off;
no milk or any other drink given the
hogexceptthe water the beets were boiled
in. and the natural juices of the beets.
as the object was to test the value of the
sugar beet for the purposes of fattening
swine without the addition of soul milk
from the dairy; therefore only the beets
were fed, cooked as stated the feed was
three pals a day, morning, noon and
night, the pail holding twelve quarts,
that amount The hog would eat up clean,
perhaps more, as his appetite was not
cloyed, the intention was to feed about
as much as he would eat up clean, and
no more. The first of September, after
feeding fifteen days, he weighed three
hundred pounds, a gain of two pounds
per day. The feeding was continued /;
same quantity and manner of feed
ing through September; thirty days
gave sixty pounds additional weight,
making a total on October first of four
hundred and fifty pounds. He was fed
the next month in the same manner, and
then weighed five hundred pounds. His
gain for the two and a half months had
been very uniform. On November first
he was fed On meal, corn and oats ground
together-one-third corn-fed six quarts
a day; two quarts morning, noon and
night, wet with cold water. His gain
thus fed was three pounds per day dur
ing the month of November and a few
days in December. He was then killed
and dressed live weight, six hundred
and ten pounds; dressed weight, five
hundred and twenty-five pounds. To |
have had the beets measured and the
gram weighed before feeding would have
gwen the experiment with more exact
ness, but at the same time it was not
expected to be published. 1t wa a very |
satisfactory experiment at the time, but
the hog was a good one, remarkably quiet
and gentle, which was one reason why

4 Rare Surgical Operation Success.
fully Performed.

1t is seldom that a surgeon, though he
make the treatment of ulcerous cancer'
a speciality, is called on to remove one Of
so unusual a character as that taken by
DIR. G. Terry, of this city, from the
mouth and face of a Mrs. Russell, OF
Florida, on Sabbath morning last. The
ulcer had grown TO the size of a mans
fist, in the patients mouth, causing the
disease and decay of a portion of the
bones of the head, giving constant pain,
and threatening at any moment to cause
death. In hopes of finding relief by sub
hitting to a surgical operation, she came
to Columbus, and put herself under the
treatment of DIR. Terry, who, as stated
above, cut it away, in the presence of
several medical gentlemen and a few
non-professionals, in a manner so skillful
as to elicit their admiration, and 20 in
spire the suffering lady with new hopes
of a prolonged life.
After administering chloroform the
surgeon cut the cheek, from the corner
of the lip around up to the eye, exposing
the left half of the upper jaw up to the
eye and base Of its orbit. A protuse
he%morrhage ensued upon the removal of
the tumor and bone, but it was promptly
checked. After removing all the dis
eased parts the wound was sewed up
with silver wire, and properly secured
by strips of adhesive plaster, and band,
ages.
The heroism displayed by Mrs. Rus.
'ell was wonderful; for though under
the influence of chloroforn, she was fully
conscious of what was being done, and
occasionally spoke of the extreme pain
The suffered while under the knife. The
whole operation only occupied twenty
minutes.
Mrs. Russell is now doing well. She
has slept better, and suffered less
,ain, since the operation was completed, |
han she had done before in years. We
congratulate her on her relief from such
/ terrible affection, and wish her a
peedy and thorough cure.
