There is in some localities grow
| ing sentiment to the effect that pro-
ducers of pork by wholesome processes
should not be compelled to compete
with the degraded product from city
swill. Those who supply grass and
corn cannot realize the profit gained
by persons who, within easy reach of
large towns, are enabled to secure
garbage or hotel refuse at low rates or
even for the hauling The Massachu-
sets Ploughman considers this sub
ject at length, intelligently, and shows
that it touches not only producers, but
consumers and the general welfare,
and has even a bearing upon our ex-
port trade. First the passing swill-
cart is can indescrbable stencil" and
menace to health. as are also, to an
aggravated degree, the hogpens where
this fermented or rotting slop is shov-
elled out to the abused swine, amid
"sickening odors" against which long
suffering, peace-loving neighbors hest
tate to make complaint. Again, its
use promotes disease-as hog cholera
and possibly trichina--and the aver
age housekeeper is not able to detect
by appearance the difference between
this meat and that fattened by decent
methods. Moreover, the swine mala-

stream or by other means of transit,

Tate, withal, against the reputation of
American pork products abroad, Our

facts warrant for legislative restric-

may avoid it, and raisers of grain fed

Why 1t Is Called STAND of Fire. +"

The prevailing impression that there
are volcanoes upon these islands, says a
correspondent in an account of Terra
del Fuego, is mistake. The name
LAND of Fire. originated from the
fact that every night the entire land
scape is Illuminated by myriads OF
fires. When the Indians go ashore at
shutdown each family builds a fire to
protect them from the cold, as it
always freezes, and the effect is very
fine. Around here and among sailors
the islands are known as "Fireland,"
and the natives as "Firelanders."

To Grow Plants from Cut,,up.

The old way of roofing cuttings in
small glass bottle filed with water
Is good method when hotbed can
not be used; but the bottle should not
stand so close to the window as to
become hot, and thus scald the root
lets. A little cotton wool within the
rim of the bottle will prevent evapo-
ration. In two or three weeks the
roots will be plentiful, and then the
cuttings may be transferred to thumb
pots, or, if the season suits, into the
beds. As each cutting is taken from
the bottle, dip the roots into little
warm sand until each fiber is coated.
