In the matter of swine breeding the
question Of in-and-in breeding is an
old one, and 80 far as our recollection
goes farmers as general rule have al
ways been averse to the breeding to-
gether Of pigs belonging to the same
litter, and the same kind of feeling has
commonly prevailed in the breeding of
horses, cattle and sheep, the impress
sion having prevailed as a common one
that inland in breeding would surely
weaken the animal constitution to a
greater or less extent in all cases where
it is allowed. There are, however, a
good many breeders of different kinds
of fine live stock that dissent from this
view of the case, AMI claim that it has
been through in-and-in breeding that
the best breeds of stock in the world
have been produced and kept distinct,
and it must be admitted that this pro-
position is truthful one, but after
this admission, the question as to
whether these fine breeds of hogs par
ticularly are as strong in constitution
and endurance as some of the old COM
mon breeds of swine is being kept up
as mOoted one. We believe it has
been claimed that where hog cholera
prevails it is much more fatal and
sweeping in it's effects among finely
bred hogs than among the old scrub
breeds of the country. Certain it is
that a great deal of cross breeding has
been done between the finest breeds of
hogs that are known, and the same
thing has been done with some
of the best breeds of sheep that are
known, it being claimed by most of the
parties engaged in such cross-breeding
that the cross-breeds show more
strength of constitution than the orig
inal stock on either side developed.
This whole subject is no doubt to un-
dergo good deal of discussion from
the present time forward. 1t would
be hard to find any parties in the
country having general interest in
the live stock production who would
be willing to see any one among the
best breeds of swine run out of exist
ence by constructing or any other
means.

The Robin at his Best.

John Burroughs, in The Century.
When the Duke of Argyle, who is a
lover of the birds and good ornitholo-
gist, was in this country, he got the i'm
preston that our soDg-birds were in
ferior to the British, and he refers to
others of his countrymen as of like
opinion. No wonder he thought our
robin inferior in power to the L.issal
TIN ush, in variety to the mavis, and in
melody TO the black bird. Robin did
not and could not sing to his ears the
songs he sings to ours. Thea it is very
likely true that His Grace did not hear
the robin in the most Opportune mo-
ment and season, or when the contrast
OF his song with the general silence
and desolation of nature is the most
striking and impressive. The nightin-
gale needs to be heard at night, the
lark at dawn, rising to meet the sun:
and robin, if you would know the
magic of his voice, should be heard in
early spring, when, as the sun is setting,
he carols steadily for ten or fifteen min
utes, from the top of some near tree
There is perhaps no other sound in ma
ture: patches of snow linger here and
there: the trees are naked and the earth
is cold and dead: and this contented.
hopeful, re-assuring, and withal music
al strain. poured out so freely and de-
liberately, fills the void with the very
breath and presence of the spring. 1t
is a simple strain, well suited to the
early season: there are no intricacies
in 1T, but its honest cheer and direct
ness, with its slight plaintive tinge,
like that of the sun gliding the tree
tops, go straight to the heart. The
compass and variety of the robins
powers are not to be despised either.
A German who has great skill in the
musical education of birds told me
what l was surprised to hear; namely,
that our robin surpasses the European
black bird III capabilities Of voice.

The Shoebiack Plant. .

The "shoeblack plant" is the name

stltute for Day and Martin" The
flowers contain large proportion of
mucilaginous juice, which, when evenly
applied. gives glossy, varnish-like ap-
pearance. which perfectly replaces
ordinary backing. with the advantage
that it is perfectly clearly in use, and
can be applied in a few moments.
Four or five flowers, with the anther
and pollen removed. are required for
each boot. and polishing brush may
be applied afterward if desired.

ticed that moist climates were not al
ways more subject to smut than dry
countries. California has remarkably
dry climate all through the growing
season of the wheat plant, and yet Cali
fornia farmers, more than most others,
are obliged to soak their seed wheat
to kill spores. Over the older settled
portions of the United States these
fungus plants are increasing yearly.
1t has been hoped that varieties of
grain would be found or produced
which would prove rust-proof, but
there is little prospect of finding such
varieties, for it is quite likely that the
rust plant will, after a few years, adapt
itself to the new grain.

Production of Tobacco.

According to the census report the
total production Of tobacco in this
country is Az, 661, $50 pounds. The
largest producers, it appears. yield the
smallest amount per acre. Thus Vir-
ginia. Maryland. Kentucky and Ten.
nessee, which raise most of the export
ed tobacco. show an annually decreas-
ed average to the acre; whereas, in those
states where tobacco is grown more
for domestic use. the yield is high and
increasing every year.

Market gardeners along the Atlantic
shore have been troubled for some
years past with lettuce fungus, which
frequently destroys the whole crop of
large plantation. Sulphur will kill
it, but the sulphur must be washed off
before the lettuce is used, or it will
impart an unpleasant taste. Lime has
also been found to check or destroy the
lettuce fungi. Where the ground be-
comes infested with the spores of this
or any other species OF fungi, it may
sometimes be the best course to pursue
to abandon the crop for a few years,
or until the premises are cleared of the
live spores. For the raspberry rust no
preventive remedy has yet been found
and the only remedy known is to cut
down and burn the bushes as fast as
they are attacked.

rested q man giving the name Of McEwize
employed in packing house, on warran
charging him with being the abductor of
Maggie HenLicke of Milwaukee, whose
disappearance created so much excitement.
An alleged member of Pinkerton's detec-
tive force caused the arrest. He says the
mans name is Hamilton. The alleged
abductor is about thirty five years of age,
an American, and has the appearance of g
professional man. He denies all knowl-
edge of the matter. The warrant was
issued from Adams county, presumably to
keep away from where the arrested man
could obtain habeas corpus, until requi-
sition arrives from Wisconsin. The girl
is said to be at Syracuse on the railroad be-
tween here and Nebraska City, There is
much mystery about the affair and it is as

any more facts than these, though much

CINCINNATI, Dec. S.-3Id.e Conner, of
the common pleas court, rendered his
opinion in the case of Elizabeth p. Patter-
son and Nicholas Patterson, her husband,
against the board of education of Symmes
township, Hamilton county. This is an
action to enjoin the defendant from allow
ing the public school in sab-district No. 6,
of said township, from being used and &C.
cupied on Sunday Of each week fer the
purpose of holding Sunday school. 3 It
appears that the defendant has heretofore
allowed the building in question to be en-
joyed by religious body known as the
"New Lights, or Chris5ians,"a place where

proceeding to which lie plai..bs;:f5 strenr-
oasly objected, but without. eject, which
caused them to bring the present action to
determine their rights. The case original
ly came before Judge NJ ore, who granted
a temporary injunction, and the proceed
ings which eliminated in the decision CT
the court yesterday, came up on petition
to make the order permanent. In summing
up the court passed upon tae three points
presented by the defendant: First, is such
use of school property proper. Second,
is injunction the proper proceeding; and
last, have not the plaintiffs surrendered
their right to maintain the action, because
OF their removal from the district during
its progress. Upon these objections,
the court held, taking up the
third point first, that a party
must be resident. taxpayer il the school
district to bring an action such as the one
in question:; and as it appears that
although the plaintiffs removed from the
district after the commencement OF the
cause at hand, yet they returned before It's
completion Which, II the opinion of
the court, was all the ststate
required. AS to whether or nos injunction
was Tie proper remedy. the court held that
there could be little or no doubt but that
it was. Referring to the first question adj
Yancedhy defendant, as 20 whsther tho use
Of pubic school property for religious
purposes was proper, the court was in
clined to coincide with Judge Moore, in
holding it improper. Ii the judgment Ct
