There was a prize for the prettiest girl at ball iu Gold City, Montana, and the delicate question was to be decided by a committee The choice was generally conceded. to l:e be- tween Miss Mc(5owan and Miss Burt, and one being a blonde and tLe other a brunette, the committee was unable to judge of their charms by cempari- son. The suspense was trying to the tempers of the rival beauties, and they feil to crIticisiBg each others looks. Then they quarreled ; pext they fought When they were parted Miss McGowan's face was scratched as though she had been thrown into q bramble bush, and one of Miss Burt's eyes was swollen and nearly shut. That epssode relieved the com mittee of embarrassment, for neither of the two young women was any longer pretty, and the prize vas awarded to another.

AGRICULTURAL.
Raising Pork.

When an article of general consumption
commands a low price in market it is not
always the part of good husbandry to aban-
don its production, but rather to investigate
and see If by greater skill or selection the
cost may not be cheapened in proportion.
Thus, in feeding pigs, it is true the outlook
for the high prices that prevailed during the
flush years of the war is not favorable, yet
thanks to enterprising and intelligent breed
ers, the farmers of this country may now OBJ
tain, at exceedingly reasonable prices, speci-
mems of such pure and well-bred pigs as will
put on flesh in quantities far greater and at
cost far less than that of common swine,
With pork at present prices no farmer can
afford to breed, rear or feed coarse, heavy
bred, low.bred swine; and yet no farmer
should abandon pork raising. Pigs consume
material that would otherwise be wasted,
while they probably convert certain kinds of
food into meat as economically as any other
animals. They are capable of remunerative
returns when properly managed. Aside from
the necessities of home consumption, it must
be remembered that low prices always induce
increased consumption, both at home and
abroad. In 1877 the United States sent
abroad $50, 664, 456 worth of bacon and hams,
S5,744,022 of pork, $22, 429, 4S5 of lard while
in 1877 the exports had increased to $40, 512,
412 of bacon and hams, Sc, 296, Ala of pork and
$25, So, 665 of lard.
The advantages of cooperation in agricul.
tural matters could not be more practically
nor more profitably illustrated than in the
purchase by farmers clubs, grange clubs, or
even by company composed Of several indl-
viduals, of choice pigs for breeding. By the
use among neighboring farmers of single
pure, well bred animal, secured at first cost
of $40 to $25, for the purpose of crossing with
and improving the common stock of the coun-
try, the profits of pork raising could be in
creased at least twenty-five per cent, and a
business which, under common management,
promises only loss, be made remunerative and
satisfactory. Let farmers consider that, DUR
ing the days of small profits, only those animals
should be kept that give the best returns.
