Feeding Fattenin, Hogs.

1t has taken two weeks of careful cb-
servation to find out just how much to
feed fattening hogs and keep up their
appetites. 1t may be put down rs an
established fact that when pig has lot
keen appetite it is not in healthy
condition. Nine ears OF corn a day
We're allowed to each old hog at TIE
start and the number was gradually i'll
creased up to thirty-siN, or a basketfvl
for pen of eight. This is all that hogs
will eat OF corn and keep up a vigorous
appetite. They have had each day an
a-Inful of sweet co n stalks which they
ate greedilv. A few raw pumpkins
have also been given which they rel
ished very much. When the corn
stalks are fed out, sorghum stalks will
be gwen. consider these corn stalks
to be almost invaluable to feed in this
connection. Sulphur and charcoal have
been put in the pens. Pigs will eat Of
these every day. Clear, cold water is
kept in the troughs all of the time.
These old hogs are now fairly started
for fattening. The corn will make the
fat, and the green corn stalks and the
sorghum the necessary coarse material
10 Till the bowels, and at the same time
tighten the stomach. By this express
sion We mean, keeping the stomach
from becoming packed with solid food
ike corn meal, or clear corn eaten by
the pigs. For these reasons it is better
to grind cob and all. and corn should
always be ed in this way to any animal;
something must be taken into the stom-
ach more than what is digeStible. or all
OF the functions of the animal beyond
the digestive will be inactive. How
long can they remain in a dormant con-
dition and be healthy Not long. The
gastric juices can better penetrate food
mixed with some coarse material than
when in dense or compact form. Raw
roots, pumpkins or apples are most
beneficial to fattening animals for the
above reasons. They also help to cool
the blood, and prevent the animal from
becoming feverish.-Cor. Rural NeU

Weeds Live Where Useful Plants Would

In the driest weather our gardener

stroying them. Within sixty hours.

without moisture. the plants sprouted
from the root-stump and came up Wig
orously, and covered the spot as before.
The cutting of the plants again, and
covering the fresh incision with a few
grains of salt. did not arrest growth;
but a drop of strong sulphuric
acid applied directly to the wound
apparently destroyed vitality 1t is
not certain, however. that in the
spring they will not again appear in
unusual freshness and vigor. What has
been stated regarding the dandelion
and its tenacity of life applies to most
noxious weeds. and the question comes
up: Why is it that plants that We do
not want that are an injury to the
fields, have capabilities of growth,
when valuable plants around them are
killed. 1t seems to be law in nature
that whatever is detested and efforts
are made to destroy possesses powers
of endurance and resistance which en-
dow it with remarkable vitality. We
can see no good reason why worthless
weeds should exist at all; apparently
they serve no good purpose in the
world. If we could remove them from
our fields as readily and as effectively
as We can the wheat or the maize
plants. it would not be long before they
would cease to ann0y US. 1t is prob
able that everything that grows exists
for purpose, and whatever is regarded
as an enemy. and needs protection, is

A very unique Partisan ball dress is made
of this delicate color. The train is of
ottoman silk, with side panels of chestnut
brown velvet. The petticoat is of white
satin, brocaded with silver. The Camargo
bodice is of the green silk, with revers
down each side of the front, which opens
and laces over chemisette of the white

of the silk are finished at the edge with
an odd mixture of seal-brown velvet and
the silver and white brocade, band of
the velvet being slashed and laced over
an inner band of the brocade, matching
the trimming upon the corsage.

Slow Suicide.

Since the hideonsly original deed of
selfslaughter of the demented German
in Whitefrian, who actually succeeded
in decapitating himself by means of a
roughly improvised guillotine, there have
been few suicides of more determined
and q more unusual character than that
committed by an unhappy laundress, sew
enty-two years of age, ON whose remains
an inquest was held few days ago by
DR.. Danford Thomas. The husband of
the deceased is ten years her senior, and
he gave evidence to the effect that of
late years she had been very strange"
in her manner. She had often threatened
to commit suicide, and on one occasion
swallowed quantity of paraffin oil. The
husband had been often advised to place
her under restraint, but he had declined
to do 50, saying that he was well able to
look after her himself and procure medi-
cal advice for her. And he was eighty
two! One morning the old man on wax
ing missed his wife from his side. Search
wasmade for her in vain, and information
was given to the police in the belief that
she had thrown herself into the canal,
which she had often threatened to do.
The police and the husband returned to
the house and at length they discovered
the body of the poor old woman crouch
ing in water-butt, quite dead. She must
have got into the butt by means of box
placed against the side, knocked away
the broom handle which served as bung,
and then sat down to wait until the turn
cock turned on the main at five in the
morning; and the water must have been
pouring over her head for full hour and
quarter. 1t was the opinion of the coroner
that death by drowning must have en-
sued about four minutes after the water
had begun to descend on her head. The
question of time is of no great moment.
She could have got into the water-butt
for no other purpose than of self-destruc
ton. 1t would be more instructive to
know whether she was in position to be
enabled to rise to her feet, and 50 save
herself when the water began to flow, or
whether she was 50 wedged and jammed
between the sides of the cask as to be I'M
able to stir when the torrent came down
upon her. If the last were the case, she
was probably very soon sufFocated
If the first, she must have been
more of an ancient Roman than a
Dane, or distraught old Englishwoman
either. Not one suicide in fifty thousand,
we should say, would be able to resist |
that instinct of seif-preservation which is
the first law of nature.-Lond0n Tele- |
