All the hogs and pigs in Joseph Pcrrins
ranch, four miles below San Francisco, went
on pig bender on Wednesday, which hap
pened in this wise. Several casks of native
wine had been placed outside of the house
and facing the barn yard, and it is supposed
that some of the hogs in rubbing against one
of the casks knocked out the spigot and
caused the contents to run out. The wine
formed pool in a depression in the ground
and around it all the hogs, little and big,
about the premises, in the number of about
thirty, c0ngregEed and drank their III il and
before any person about the place was aware
of what had happened, all the porkers were
drunk, and going through the queerest an
tics imaginable. Some were frisky and full
of play, other belligerent and staggering
around hunting up fights; some Numbering
around in an imbecie way, walking in cork
screw style, and tumbling over the least OBJ
struction that lay in their path, while several
of the larger hogs, that had managed to get
on the heaviest loads, were drunk and in
capable of motion. Those who saw this
queer performance say that it was the most
apt illustration of the saying drunk as
hog" that they ever witnessed, while the
inebriates, acted wonderfully like humans
in similar state ofdebauch The hogs were
all "bind drunk" before they could drink up
all the wine, Al the grape juice was turned
into n tempet kRce beverage by turning II
stream of water on it. The hogs were all
bear.eyed and stupid the next day, and from
their actions seemed to say that their chair
pulled dreadfully"

Taking off the Shoes.

In Syria people never take off their caps or
turbans when entering house or visiting q
friend, but they always leave their shoes at
the door The reason is that their floors
are covered with clean mats and rugs, and in
the Moslem houses the men llneel on the rugs
to pray, and press their forehead to the floor
so that it would not be decent or respectful to
walk in with dirty shoes and soil the SHADY
on which they kneel to pray They have no
foot-mat or scraper, and it is much cheaper
and simpler to leave the shoes, dirt and all,
at the door.
1t is very curious to go to the Syrian
school-house and see the shoes of pupils at
the door. There are new, bright red shoes
and old, tattcrcd shoes, and kob-kobs and
black shoes, and some tines yellow shoes
The kob-kobs are wooden clogs, make to
raise the feet out of the mud and water, hay
ing little strap over the toe to keep it on
the foot. You will often see little boys and
girls running down steps and paved streets
on these dangerous kob-kobs Sometimes
they slip, and then down they go on their
noses, and the kob-kobs fly off and go rafting
over the stones, and little Ali or Yusef, or
whatever his name is, begins to shout, "Ya
Imma va Imma! !" con, my motherP0 and
cries just like little children in other coun-
tries.
But the funniest part is to see the boys when
they come out of school and try to find their
shoes. There will be fifty boys, and, of
course, n hundred shoes, all mixed together
in one pile When school is out the boys
make rush for the door, Then comes the
tug of war A dozen boys are standing
and shutlling on the pile of shoes, running
their toes into their own, stumbling over the
kob-kobs and then making dash to get out
of the crowd

How to Increase the Yieii of Corn.

AS a rule among our farmer acquaint-
ances fair, plump, large ears of corn are Sc
lected for seed without any regard TO the
number growing on stalk From our own
experiments we deem this mistake. 1t is
better to save the largest, fairest ears than
those which are imperfect or collected indis
criminatcly But such selection is just as
liable to encourage lesser as greater yield
in the future crops. Corn is very suscepti-
BILE to change from selection as we may know
from the scores of distinctly marked varie-
ties known. If we would increase our yield
we must select seed from the most prolific
plants This which is true of all plants, is
especially so of the corn plant. If further
and isolated plots, as far removed as possible
from other corn, were planted yearly for seed
and the tassels as soon as they appear were
destroyed on both those which were sterile
and the least prolific, we doubt not the far.
mer would in a very few years be amply COM
pensated for his pains. In this case, seed
would be saved which had on both sides the
most prolific parentage. We attribute our
immense yield of Blount's Corn at the Rurals
farm, in great measure to our very careful
selection of the seed. There can be little
doubt that such selection will in few years
increase the yield Of any variety of corn
On the other hand if only the largest, hand
soonest ears are selected, regardless of the
number of ears borne on a given stalk, SIM
ply what may be considered the normal yield
the variety will he continued from year to
year.-RurdI Neao Yorker.

1t is a small matter TO take the horses
across the field for their water; it seems to
cost nothing, yet if a farmers time, or that
of this hired man, is worth anything, it costs
a great deal in the course of year 1t is a
small matter to chop each days wood upon
the day it is used, and thus have it all fresh;
but fifteen minutes in harvest time is worth
more than in January; besides, there are
vastly more economical methods of making
fire wood than with an axe. 1t is a very lit
tie matter to tighten loose nut, but it some
times costs life ard limb not to dot. A
pear tree here, and peach tree there, costs
80 little that one is inclined to think they are
of no account, but when the fruit is ripe
they are appreciated. A single step from one
room to another is 'only one step" but the
thought of a stairway made out of these steps
during life time, is enough TO almost make
woman's back ache. Look well TO the de-
tails, that the little things are right, for 1t
pays in the end.--Americdn agricultural for

He Took the Hint,

Young Mr.. Latehours was sitting on the
porch the other night watching n seventeen
year-old girl trying to keep awake long
enough to see the morning star rise. They
talked astronomy.
81 wish was STAR" he said, smiling at
his own poetic fancy
II would rather you were n comet" she
said, dreamiy.
His heart beat unanimously.
And whyY" he asked, tenderly, at the
same time taking her unresisting little hands
in his own; land why2" he repeated, i'm
periously.
ooh" she said, with brooding earnest
ness that fell upon his soul like bare foot
ON cold oilcloth, because then you would
only come around once every 1 800 years.
He didn't say anything until he was half
way to the front gate, when he turned around
and shook his fist at the house, and muttered
between his teeth that "by the dads it
would be laundering sight longer than that
before he came around again" But by that
time the poor girl was in bed and sound
asleep.-Burl'ngton Hawkeye.

Educating Horses.

Horses can be educated to the extent of
their understanding, as are children, and can
be easily damaged or ruined by bad manage
ment. We believe that the difference found
in horses as to vicious habits and reliability
comes much more from the different manage
ment of men than from variance or natural
disposition in animals. Horses with high
mettle are more easily educated than those
ofless or dull spirits, and are more suscepti-
BILE to ill-training and consequently may be
made good or bad, according to the education
they receive.
Horses with dull spirits are not byany
means proof against bad management, for in
them may be found the most provoking OBJ
stinacy; vicious habits of different characters
that render them almost worthless. Could
coming generations of horses in this country
be kept from their days of colthood to the
age OF five years in the hands of good, care
full managers, there would be seen vast
difference in the general character of the no.
BILE animal
Ifa colt is never allowed to get an adyant-
age, it will never know that it possesses DOW
er that man cannot control and ifmade fami-
liar with strange objects it will not be skittish
and nervous. If q horse is made accustomed
from his early days to have objects hit on the
heels, back, or hip he will pay no attention to
the giving way ola harness, or wagon run
ming against him at an unexpected moment.
We once saw an aged lady driving high
spirited horse attached to carriage down a
steep hill, with no hold-back straps upon
the harness, and she assured us that there
was no danger, for her son accustomed his
horse to all kinds of usage and sights that
commonly drive the animal into frenzy of
fear and excitement.
A gun can be fired from the back of horse,
an umbrella held over the head, buffalo
robe thrown upon his neck, railroad engine
pass close by, his heels bumped with sticks,
and the animal takes it as q natural condition
of things, if only taught by careful manage
ment that it will not be injured thereby
There is great need Improvement in this
noble animal. Less beating wanted and more
education,-Empire State Agricuturist

ENTERTAINING COMPANY. - The whole
philosophy of hospitality is summed up by
Emerson in the following: II pray you, o
excellent wife, not to cumber yourself and
me TO get rich dinner for this man or this
woman, who has alighted at our gate nor
bedchamber made ready at too great a COST
These things if they are curious in, they can
get for dollar at the village. But let this
stranger see, if he will, in your looks, in your
accent and behavior, your heart and earnest
ness, your thought and will, what he cannot
buy at any price, at any village or city, and
which he may well travel fifty miles and dine
sparingly and sleep hard, in order to behold
Certainly let the board be spread and the bed
be dressed for the traveller but let not the
emphasis of hospitality be in these things
Honor to the house when they are simple to
the verge of hardship, so that the intellect is
awake and sees the laws of the universe, the
soul worships truth and love, honor and
courtesy flow into all deeds" One of the
greatest comforts of having home should be
that in it we have a place for friends and even
strangers-rooms, more than supply the needs
of the family and extra leaves to the extern
sion table. The secret of true hospitality, as
Emerson has stated, is in its coming from the
heart.
