Public opinion has been trained so long In
FAVOR OF Improved breeds OF pigs, the farmers
have become somewhat daft on the subject
They have been governed by this public opin-
lon and seeming economy, until they have
about driven pork from the table, and made a
nation Of epicures who turn away from pork
and even ham, with disgust. Our forefather5
lived longer than the present generation are
likely to, and were men Of brains as we'll as
muscle: Pork constituted their chief meat
diet. This is not the case now The change is
not because pigs flesh iS necessarily more un-
palatable, but because the character OF the meat
has been changed from wholesome and de-
lie opinion nowadays demands pug nosed fat

then stuffed to the verge Of feverish decline, or

vent loss. Such pigs are profitable to keep so

American stomachs. 1t VIII do very well In
cold weather, but In summer time Is unSuited
to our physical wants. A radical change in
the system OF breeding and growing of pigs
would soon change the animal structure from
SO much fat to more muscle, with lighter food
given In quantities to promote steady growth,
united with exercise, which is the natural
foundation for the development OF muscle.
Muscle makes the lean meat. and this will never
be produced when pigs are closely confined and
stuffed from their birth till the time OF slaught-
erjng. The body or frame should be first built
up, and the fat laid on to a moderate extent
afterward. pig thus reared might not weigh
as much when dressed but Will have much
larger proportion Of lean meat, and need not
cost as much.-COhnfrN Gentleman.

The Fox and the Donkey.

One day fox who had wandered afar IRON
his den found his return cut of by stream OF
considerable depth and current. He could not
swim, and he cudgeiiei his brain In vain for
s1me method by which he might get over. In
TINS dilemma donkey suddenly appeared In
search OF drink.

forest Is so very still and night IS coming on"
ne donkeys and the foxes have no frAter-

1t is true. we do not mate quietly replied
the fox, but that is no sign do not apnra
ciate your intelligence and beauty. could
not hep being born a fox, but oh, how of,en
| have wished that had your beautiful ears
your thunderous bray, and your elegant
share"
''Eh. what's thate" queried the delighted
donkey.
See what beautiful long legs you have!n
continued the fox.
"Do you really think sou
"And such beautiful long ears, II only
had your feet l would be as proud as pea
cock"
The flattered donkey began TO gambol and
show Of, and the fox continued
Across the stream aud beyond the swamp
is my den. L should really Ike my Children
to behold you and hear your voice. They have
heard me tell OF you. and they cry for YOU
one OF them is III, and cannot let him die
until he has seen the greatest ass In America"
uIoiC Iitlttis dHu quite won
the heart OF the donkey, and he agreed TO 90.
AS he entered the stream the fox lie aped
fghtly to his back and passed over witho Ii
vet loot. When they entered the swamp he
renew ed his flattery, and was finally carried to
dry lard.
You are not golngs" asked the donkey as
me FOX Jumped down and started of.
Yes

OF advice. Be what nature designed you 70 be.
Never take dollars worth OF fiattery In place
or shilliBg's worth OF pork. While YOU can
pray, never do so without realizing that a bray
always gives away the location OF donkey. 1t

THE BEST ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE
UNITED STATES.
Its influence as an agent of publicity has in
deed practically no limit within.the boundaries
OF the country. The best evidence Of this is the
number Of new advertisements it printed In the
year 1879, which reached 2O,636, averaging
from LOO tO-2 900 per month In the busy
season.! These figures include only the sub
Ject OF the advertisement, and not any change
of the matter, which, In some instances, Is made
daily, and, although a new advertisement In
fact, is not counted but once, instead OF 80 pup
Hcation dates. The advertising books are open
