EarIYG AND DYSPEPSIA 1t Is an
old German adage that More people
dig their own graves with their teeth
than with spades and verify it would
seem so, if we look at the immense
number of dysyeptic, rheumatic and
gouty individuals, creeping through
life in pain and wretchedneSs. Yet Ii
is next TO impossible TO induce even
thinking people to control their ap-
pelites, and to EFT such things at such
times as nature shows them are Deces-
sary and right. DR.. Hall declares
unhesitalingIy that it is wrong TO eat
without an appetite, for it shows there
is no gastric juice in the stomach, and
that nature does not need food, and
not needing it, there being no fnid TO
act upon it, it remains there only 10
putrify, the very thought of which
should be sufficient TO deter anv man
from eating without an appetite the
remainder of his life. II tonic is taken
to whet the appetite, i: is Z mistaken
course, for It's only result is TO cause
one to eat more, when already an
amount has been eaten beyond what
the gastric juice is able TO prepare.
The object 10 be obtained Is large
supply of gastric juice whatever fails
10 accomplish tSat essential object
fails to have an efficacy toward the
cure of dyspepIic diseases. The for
nation of gastric juice is directly pro,
portioned to the wear and tear Of
ite system, which it is TO be the means
of supplying, and this wear and tear
can only take place as the result of
exercise. The efficient remedy for
dyspcptics is workout door work

ments. He also has the habit of TAX
ing other peoples coats by mistake,
particularly il they hang near bis own

appearance was attended by such sin
gular circumstances that the detect
ives were quietly put upon the trail.
-Four days afterwards a couple of de
tectiyes called at Sen. Goldthwait's
house, and asked him if he had his
own coat. After searching his closet
for a time, he returned, bringing the
lost coat, saying: "This does not look
quite like my coat" The lost money
was found safe in the pocket. This

MEAT AND EGGS.-A writer in the
Scientific Farmer estimates the food
value OF one pound of eggs as a pro-
ducer Of force, i. E., the amonnt Of
work the pound oxodized in the body
is Theoretically capable Of producing,
at 1854 foot>tOns, and the value OF
one pound Of lean beef, from the same
point of view, at 900 foot>tons. As
flesh producer, one pound of eggs is
about equal to one pound of beef The
author hereupou remarks as follows:
" A hen may be calculated 10 con-
sumo one bushel Of corn yearly and to
lay Il dozen or eighteen pounds of
eggs. This is equivalent to saying
that 81 pounds Of corn will produce,
when fed to this hen, one pound Of
eggs. a pound of pork. on The con
trary, requires about 3! pounds of
corn for Its production. When eggs
are "a cents dozen, and pork is 10
cents a pound, we have the bushel of
corn fed producing 81 IS worth of
eggs, and but 81 05 worth of pork.
Judging from these facts, eggs must
be economical in their production and
in their eating, and especially fitted
for the laboring man in replacing
meat.

MAD ITCH IN CATTLE.-C. IL, Rob

has recently lost several head OF val

known rs mad itch," disease super
induced by eating dry corn stalks.
In letter to the Visalia Della he
describes the circumstances and tie
symptoms of The strange disease. The
first symptoms noticeable was a dry
coughing with frothing at the mouth,
and All effort to chew an imaginary
cad. Death resulted IN twenty or
thirty hours with great agony. The
disease seems TO defy all efforts TO al
leviale it. Post mOrtem examination
showed The third stomach of the AMI
nal filed and packed solid with dry
ruminaled corn fodder, SO day as to be
impossible TO pass off. The disease
only showed itself after his supply Of
pumpkins had given out, and his OBJ
servations go TO prove that dry corn
fodder alone without other food caus-
ed the disease by clogginS the sium-
ach, causing inflammation, etc, and
further the mad itch is iucurable.

WeaUiBg Pigs.

Pigs frequently nurse Their mothers
if allowed TO run with them 50 long.
till they are three or four months old,
If The sows are fed nothing, but COM
relied TO live on wha: they can Craze
in .he fields, they will by this time
become very poor, and can OF cours1
afford but little milk, and can do their
PICS but little good by nursing. After
the pigs are weaned, it requires two
months at least in pretty good feed 10
recuperate them so as 10 take the
boar for another litter. Sows thus
treated will hardly raise two litters OF
pigs a year, end unless the feed Is
very good the pigs will be stunted,
and viii not attain fair growth for
fatteuing till they ale eighteen months
old. AT three weeks old, if the sows
are kept in pen and fed, the little
pigs will begin to taste and sip the
food, aud al four weeks viii become
quite hearty eaters, At six weeks. if
The SOW has been fed enough TO afford
them plenty of milk to give them
good growth, they may be weaned and
and the sow turned into the breeding
pasture again. In this way each sow
MAJ raise three lilters of pigs every
fifteen months, and both SOW and pigs
do better than by the other plan of
operating. The little extra CAFE and
feed for a month and half, while
each litter Of pigs are small, is but
triie compared to the gain in number
and quality of the pigs raised, Pigs
should not be taken from the SOW ab
ruplIy, but should be weaned from the
mother and her milk gradually. For
instance, if the pigs are kept in q pen
adjoining the pasture the so@s may be
turned back again for an hour at
noon, and then allowed TO sleep in thSn
pen with the PIGS at night. After fol :
lowing this plan for week the turn
ing in at noon may be omitted, and
the sow turned out in the morning
and returned to The pen again at night.
liz this way the milk will be dried up
gradually, and without injury to the
sow, and The change of feed for the
pigs will be SO gradual as to result in
DO injury, or even risk Of injury. A
little good Judgment, administered
with a little care and pains taking
with stock, is one of the best invest
menls stock breeder can make.
There is money in it, as every one
who tries it will find, Not only This,
but there is some satisfaction in seeing
stock prosper under good and careful
treatment.
