Woman's Tears.

Stop this scientific business where it
is, and don't let it go any further. It is
robbing life of all that is worth living
for. Only q short time ago one of these
scientific joskins Analysed a tear that
had trickled down upon the cheek of
lady who wanted q new dress, and he
found it to contain phosphate of lime,
chloride Of sodium and water. Ever
since reading that analysis we have lost
faith in tears, and, no matter what
person is believing about, we can only
look at the tears as they flow over
beauty's cheek and think Of the phos-
phate of lime, chloride of sodium and
water. The internal analysis has knocked
all the poetry out of tears for us, and
we feel as though we wanted our money
back. If the scientist will refund what
he has taken from us he can have his
old analysis. We would like to throw
him in corner and Jump on him. He
has robbed us. Oh, give us back them

TREATMENT OF BREEDING SWINE
We're | raising my pigs for pork instead
of for breeders, / would feed them some
what differently from what l now do,
and / am satisfied they would weigh as
much at six months as they now do at
nine months. But my stock are for
breeders, and I am quite sure that
course of pushing" with the most
adaptable and richest food,
would injure them for that purpose.
To grow pigs successfully and proftably,
requires that they should have good
appetite, good digestion and strong
assimilating powers, which cannot be
found in any breed without vigorous
health. If pig is kept for consider
able time in cold, wet, dirty pen, on
bad food and short allowance, until the
character and quality of the secretions
are changed, and the general growth of
the pig Is checked, that pig will not
make good breeder Dy subsequent
good care and feed, this pig may grow to
be fine-looking hog, and as a breeder,
may not show the check It has received,
but the abuse will be pretty sure to crop
out in its offspring, causing late maturity,
deficiency in size or fattening qualities.
am opposed to allowing pigs to breed
under eight months, and much prefer
that they should be 10 or II months old.
10 in-and-inbreeding and too early
breeding may be attributed many Of the
ailments, barrenness and want of thrift
to he found in numbers of our swine
herds.

The phenomenon of the perforation of

been observed in the valley of the Rhone
IN France. A very violent wind often
prevails in the neighborhood of Uzes,
and drives large quantities of sand
against band of quartzose pebbles con-
tanned in q tertiary soil. The pebbles
contain cavities which might be believed
to have been made by human hands, but
which are really produced by the often
renewed friction of the sandy particles
against their surface.

Editor Of the Florida AgriculturiSt:
hand you specimen of Lemon
of the everbearing variety, one year
old, last March, budded to sour or
ange. The tree commenced bearing
last December, and has been full Of
lemons ever since, never less than
fifty at any time, always enough for
family use. What can do to stop
it from bearing, and force it to grow
wood? L. r.
[The lemon sent is Of a superior
variety, one that we consider desira
BILE to have. BY iertilizing the tree
highly it may be made to produce
wood instead of fruit. The fertilizer
must not be of too hot nature as we
have repeatedly seen lemon trees
killed by such manures. Use bone
meal or prepared muck.-ED.]
