Securing Uniformity In Swine.

National Live stock journal,
II may be accepted rs true that no
uniformity can come to any herd of
swine where the sows that bring un-
even litters, or the pigs that spring
from these, are retained as breeders.
1t will take long time to breed out
this tendency tounevcness. 1t cannot,
of course, be got rid of in the breeding
stock itself and only repeated crosses
upon the younger things from animals
of merit will wipe out the tendency.
Hence those animals that have
proved to be devoid of this tendency to
uneveness should be retained, even
though well along in years, so long as
thcy retain full vigor and bring the
usual quota of healthy and shapcly
growing progeny. 1t is also to the
pigs from these excellent breeders that
ono must look for the successors to the
older stock, and the selections should
be made early after farrowing, correct
ing upon this judgment as the pigs
show n greater or less tendency TO re-
spond 10 their feed, taking ON n rapid
and shapcly growth. II is quito com
mon occurrence for the best of brood
sows to bring one runt, but the sow
that brings more than one should be
sent to the feeding yard without delay.
Uniformity, to be of material value,
must embody the higher and most val
liable points of excellence in the make
up. A herd of SWINE may possess
short shouts and small ears, or, if they
are Bcrkshircs, have the regulation
markings, but these count for little,
taken by themselves. To be uniformly
valuable the herd should be well de-
yclOped all through the upper half Of
the body, having symmetry combined
with n broad level rump, u deep, thick
ham, and such depth of chest is always
observed to accompany good feeding
and strong vital characteristics.
While making selections with II view
to rendering the herd more uniform in
general make up, it should not be lost
sight Of that there is quite u choice
among swine in the matter Of DISPOSE
ton among their fellows. The brood
sow that worries other swine in the
nest or at the trough, as some do un-
no matter if n good one,
should be bamiShcd to the feed lot, rs
no farm stock will thrive when har-
asScd.

THE MUSIC OF THE RAIN.

Falling, falling, on the housc.tOps,
With music quaint and rare,
Like the sound OF human heart-thrOhs
On the silent midnight air,
Or the tears OF angels falling
When they weep with those who weep
Or the lullaby OF mothers
When they rock their babes to sleep.
Like the drowsy wine of pOppics
With its weird, enchanting power,
Coming to the weary listener
Like the dew to dropping flower;
Like calm sleep to those who suffer,
Or like tears to those who mourn;
Like remembered words Of loved ones
From our aching bOsOms torn.
Strangely sweet, bewitching music,
All enthrallCd my senses lie,
AS ! watch the mystic Future
With the shadowy Past 90 by,
While calm and holy quiet
Steals upon my heart and brain,
Then | fall asleep, still listening
To the murmur Of the rain.
So, mayhap, sometime hereafter
shall lay me down to rest,
Oycrweary, and shall listen
For the music loved best;
When, its gentle cadence falling
Through the midnight silence deep,
Softly soothes my troubled spirit,
While 1t lulls me into sleep,
When, at last, my soul has fallen
Into sweetest, glad rcpOsc,
That on earth sunshine nor shadow
No awaking ever knows
Like the voice Of waiting angels,
Or the vcspcr bells in toll,
May the sOftly.falling raindrops
Chant requiem for my soul.

"When | was n little boy" said a
gentleman, one evening, 81 paid u
visit to my grandfather, II venerable
old man, whose black velvet cap and
tasscl, blue brccchcS, and nudge silver
knee buckles, filled me with great awe.
When went to bid him goodbye, he
drew me between his knees, and plac-
ing his hand on my head, said Grand
child, have ono thing to say to you;
will you remember it? | stared into
his face and nodded; for | was afraid
topromso aloud. We'll, he continued,
whatever you do, do the best you
can
"his, in fact, was my grandfathers
.cgacy TO me; and it has proved better
than gold. / never forgot his words;
and believe | have tried to act upon
them. After reaching home my uncle
gave Marcus and some wedding TO do
in the garden. 1t was Wednesday after.
noon; and we had laid our plans for
something else. Marcus, frcttcd and
ill-humored at his disappointment, did
not more than half do his work; and |
began pretty much like him, until
grandfather's advice came into my
mind, and | determined to follow it.
In q word, did my best. And when
my uncle came out, | shall never forget
his look of appreciation rs his eyes
glanced over my beds, or the fourpcnce
he slipped into my hands afterwards as
he said my work was well done, Ali
| was glad and thankful boy, while
poor Marcus was left TO drudge over
his beds all the afternoon.
"At fifteen was sent to the acad-
envy, where | had partly to earn my
own way through the course. The
lessons came hard at first, tor was
not fond of study; but grandfather's
advice was my motto, and tried to do
my best. As q consequence of this,
though | was small of my age, and not
very strong, my mother Lad three
offers for me before the year was out;
and one from the best merchant of the
village, a place in whose store was
considered very desirable. When |
joined the church, | tried to do the
Lords work as well as | did my own;
and often when | have been tempted to
leave the Sunday school, or let a hinds
rance keep me from the prayer-meet-
ing, or get discouraged in any good
thing, my grandfather's last words,
do the best you can have given me
fresh courage, and would again try"
Here, thon, was the key to this mans
character. He is considered one of the
hest business men, one of the best citi-
zens, one of the best officers of the
church, one of the best ncighbors,
fathers, husbands, friends; in word
he is universally beloved and respec-
ted. And what is the secret of it allP
He always tried to do the best he could.
Let every boy and girl take this for
their motto. Act upon, it will do Won
ders for you. 1t will bring out powers
and capabilities which will surprise
and delight yourselves and friends.

gentlemen. "lIe was Il man with n
clear head, extraordinary memory,
and much personal magnetism. But |
can not understand why he chose a
public life or has pushed himself for

thoughtful, visionary fellow, absolutely
destitute of ambition" 81 can tell
you the secret, said the other. "You

Young men at school and college are
very apt to be enraptured with spark
ling eye, a rosy cheek, or some charm
of manner in some young woman that
they happen to meet. They are hardly
masters of themselves; and moon
light night, or a song, suddenly tempts
them to ask the enchanting creature
who has bewitched them to share their
future. They do not consider that she
will be the most real, active force in
their whole lives, almost irresistible
with power to drag them down or to
lift them up in body, mind and soul.

DO Not Feed Vermln.


How many there are who, when they
feed their choice fowls, little dream
that they are feeding yermin, and it is
not only the feeding Of the much dread
ed pests, but to think you are allowing
your birds to be dcvourcd alive by lice,
which, If allowed toremain on the birds
or in the house, will soon destroy the
growth and vitality of your once thriv-
ing stock, and in Il short time you will
be obliged to kill your birds, thinking,
as well You may, that they never will
mature into the specimens that you had
hoped for. Many will tire of the re-
suits, and determine never ts engage
again in the breeding of poultry, and
oftcntimcs condemn the breeder of
whom they purchased their eggs or
stock, for thus selling stock that was
not up to the standard, when, had the
chick been raised under more careful
and experienced hands, kept free from
lice and well fed, the results would
have been very satisfactory. consid-
er that poultry raising is the most
profitable of any branch of the farm,
although we all know that many far
mer turns n cold shoulder to the fowls,
and considers that every bushel of
grain fed to them is thrown away, Not
so, however. They will return u good
reward for all the extra care and atten-
ton shown them. Give them n fair
trial, whether for fancy or profit.
At this season of the year, in cXam-
ining your coops and houses where the
fowls have been allowed to roost dur
ing the summer, you will see in the
cracks of the boards and roostS, the
small spider lice, which feed upon the
hen few hours each night. then desert
them and again return to their old
quarters. The same with young chick
ems, where they are allowed to remain
in their boxes.
They are many ways in which these
insects can be cleared from the house
for Il short time but it requires q very
powerful remedy to keep them out,
and at last had found the most cilec-
tive remedy ever known. have used
it several years, and now propose to in
troduae the same to the poultry fancy,
and to the farmers, for keeping their
buildings free from all vCrmin.
