were more numerous and the lower
grades of a better general order than
last week. Prices 4065c., with most
sales from to 62c.
THE SWINE MARKET,
The run is only fair as to numbers,
hut it seems to be ample for Il very
moderate demand at least. The quail
| ity is about the same a| last week.
We quote common rough Hogs
sows and stags-at 64063c, and the
better grades at 1876, and extra at
&c. Same time last year sales were
made at $1,000.
THE SHEEP MARKET.
There is some falling off in the
number of the receipts as compared
with the run last week, and the quail
ity is not as good as it was then.
Trade is not active, the supply being
more than sufficient for the rather
slow demand. We quote Sheep at
2(95c, few selling at the latter price !;
Lambs 5(G92c., with few at the latter
figure. Same time last week Sheep
sold at 34GG54c., and Lambs at 5(97tc.

The Des Moines Register reminds
those Democrats who are asserting
that Mr.. Blaine is "the easiest man in
the Republican party to beat" that he
has never been beaten in a political
contest since the time he entered
public life, in 1858. He was twice
elected to the Maine legislature, seven
times to Congress, and once appoint
ed and once elected to the Senate.

The New York Star says Cleve-
land cannot carry New York against
Blaine. The other New York papers
declare that Cleveland can get more
votes in that state than any other cam
didate whom the Democrats might
name. Both are right. The neces-
sary inference is not hard to draw.

NEW USE FOE EGGs.-Every one Is
familiar with the value OF the yolk OF
an egg as hair wash, but perhaps may
not be aw are of its virtue in clothing
cleansing. Beaten mp with alcohol,
eau de Cologne or ether, like ox-gall,
it keeps better, and is more powerful;
or. in simpler cases, it may be used
alone, or merely mixed with water, to
be rubbed on with flannel, for remov.
ing from colored materials the stains OF
mud, or of coffee and chocolate when
prepared with milk. 1t is frequently
applied to velyet collars and cuffs, etc.,
and proves a cleanser, as well as spot
extractor. When it has done its work.
it is washed OFF with soap, and the ma
terlal thoroughly rinsed IN pure water.
Egg has a specially good effect on those
annoying patches of wheel grease be-
longing to the compound class of stains,
as they represent mixture OF stale
grease, iron, and other substances. For
rem oving stains - hot grease - from
white or light colored material, glycer-
inc may be tined, especially with coffee
stains. Mile, Immediately applied is the
best remover of ink. Sour milk is the
best; put the article into a saucer and
let it soak in the milk.

To CURE sTANMERNG.-Dr. Dlo Lew
is In bis magazine gives rule for the
cure of stammeripg which is certainly
simple enough. and which the doctor
says has cured three-fourths of all the
cases he has treated. The stammerer
is made to mark the time in his speech,
Just as it is ordinarily done in singing.
At first he is TO beat on every syllable.
He should begin by reading one OF the
Psalms, striking the finger on the knee
at every word. "Time can be marked,
says the doctor, "by striking the finger
on the knee, by hitting the thumb
against the forefnger, or by moving
the large toe in the BOOT. The writer
believes the worst case. of suffering
can be cured if the victim viii read an
hour every day, with thorough prac-
tice of this remedy, and observing the
same in his conversation.

Ia is an excellent plan TO prepare the
cabbage for dinner an hour before it is
time to cook it. Cut the cabbage into
quarters, and scatter handful of salt
over 1t and Cver 1t with cold water.
This Is good course to pursue If one
has not time to look tie cabbage over
carefully. Caulihower also should be
treated IN the same way, after being
picked apart. There are so many small

necessary i'll looking over vegetables.

A somewhat startling theory OF the
origin of scarlet fever is propounSed by
DR.. ]. c. Peters, prominent and in
fiuential physician of New York city.
At meeting OF the Columbia Veterinary
College, DR.. Peters advanced the hy-
pothesls that the scarlet fever originates
among horses, and that each case OF
this disease may be ultimately traced to
these animals. The arguments, facts
snd dats furnished to fortify the theory
are formidable, and will go far to con-
vince iDquirers.

The pumpkin contains six or seven
times as much water as either corn or
oats ; in q word, 1t is food in a stat
OF much dilution. Analysis proves that
even if the pumpkin should be freed
from its large percentage of water, corn
and oats remain much more valuable
as feeding stufs. While pumpkins can
not be recommended as fat-producing
material, they possess excellent milk
producing qualities, and being cheaply
raised, ay be counted as valuable food
for mich COWS.

The following is a Southern mans
method of feeding a COW: IF you
want large yield of rich milk give
your COWS every day water slightly
warmed and salted, in which bran has
been stirred at the rate of one quart to
two gallons of water. BY this daily
practice the COW will give fifty-two per
cent. more milk Immediately under the
effect of it, and she will besome so at
tached to the diet as to refuse to drink
clear water unless very thirsty. The
amount of this drink necessary is an or
diray pailful of a time-morning noon
and night.
