swlll for Young rgs.

There is no better food for young
pigs after weaving than good skinned
milk wi,h..aslittle sweet, moderately fine
wheat bran and corn meal stirred into
it. There should not be large pre-

though corn meal is excellent 10 finish
of faueniag with. Many young pig
has been spoiled by ogee-feed,ng With
corn or corn meal. 1t is impossible TO
get good growth on such food alone.
Clear milk would be better, but milk
would pay a larger profit when gwen
in connecuon, with Some grain. Milk
alone is rather too bulky for a sole
diet; it distends the stomach too much,
and gives the animal too much to do
TO get rid of The surplus water. Many
young pigs are spoiled by overlooking.
When first weaned they should be
given g little at time and often. They

Eggs for Winter.

Fresh-laid eggs in the winter are
worth much more than summer eggs,
and by the requisite care and pains
taking every poultry raiser may have
a good crop of eggs in the winter. A
warm place with southern exposure
should be provided, and the fowls be
well supplied with stimulating food. A
meat diet is necessary for laying
fowls, and the supply of insects being
cut off by cold weather, the loss should
be made up by small rations of fresh
meat three or four times week. par
ched corn, oats and buckwheat are
excellent food for laying liens. The
Light Brahmas and Leghorns are con-
sidered among the best winter layers.

A sensible exchage says: Why is i,
that eggs are not sold by the pound
instead of the dozena The presen,
custom, absurd and ridiculous as it is,
offers a premium on little hens and
little eggs, and is a fraud of the frs,
water on the purchaser. The eggs Of
the large breeds weigh nearly two
pounds to the dozen, and CT small
breeds but little over one. In the
name of the lordly Asiatic, whose deep,
rich crow awakens US every morning
we protest. The eggs from his harem
are genuine, sixteen ounces to the
pound, two pounds to the dozen-al
wool and a yard wide, worth one hun.
bred cents on the dollar; whilst the
eggs of little non .sitters, that fly over
the highest fence and roost on the
highest tree tops, are fraud and de
luslon. You have to eat two 10 get one
and pay twice for the proper amount
of albumen. Let us do away with TIT
fat egg business and buy and sell egg:
by the pound.

A FEW REMARKS.


Editor San Antonio Light.
"All you sinners leave the hall. l
want TO talk to these Christians"
-[Dixie Williams.
What does Mr.. Williams mean by this4
What Is hIs oalllngs Ia IL that OF a
Saviour, or does he come as a condem-
ming judgea Why did he turn out these
sinners that came In quest Of salvation,
and preach to Christians who were not
In need Of IT. Why does MIR. Williams
In nearly every sermon he breaches as
saIl the saloon menf Ia he not aware
that the business Of these mon Is ~
legitimate ms any other? What great
sin have they been guilty OF that he
should offer up prayers for their saliva
tionY Can Mr.. Williams destroy n grown
oak by beginning at the top, cutting
branch by branch, would not It's destruc-
tion be more effectual II he would tear
II from the earth and destroy Its growth
Can Mr.. Williams imagine for mo-
ment that he can stay the old topper that
has tapped his barrelp How does MIR.
Williams propose to accomplish the sal
vation of the rising generation De-
stroy the whiskey or the one that drinks
II? Perhaps Mr.. Williams has been In
jured by some saloon man. What Is MIR.
williams idea of Christianity From
what does he existp Who furnishes the
money to defray his expensesp Who 7
| ask The Christians Bah, what
Hypocrisy This Is not Gods idea Of
Christianity How many to-day crouch
and SILVER by fireless HEARTH Poor
little children standing begging In the
streets while their poor, weak, widowed
mother struggles to keep them alive.
There is the poor cripple who Is unfit
for manual labor; there lie the hungry
trampl What benefit do these nightly
sermons confer on these unfortunates
compared to nickel In his pocket and
n beer saloon near by with free lunch
and hot stove? Yet In the face OF all OF
this the church squanders millions every
year In sending such men as Dixie
Williams abroad to preach nonsense.
Yet squander 1t thus instead Of using 1t
to relieve the want and wretohedness
that confront them on every hand.
In conclusion would say to MIR. Will
liams. some morning between the
hours of 10 and IL O'Clock, thar he
drop into saloon and study the true In
wardness of q saloons mans heart.
Destroy the root Mr.. Williams and
| the evil will soon wither and die from
lack Of sustenance. CHERRY Bon.

Dear sir-You will Remember that
some time ago remarked to you that !
suffered from an uneasy, painful feeling
In my right side, caused by a congested
condition OF the liver, which prevented
me from riding on horseback and engag-
Ing In violent exercise OF any kind. You
then told me that you had suffered from
a similar affection Of the liver, and had
cured yourself by using certain medical
herbs which you had discovered and
urged me to try them. i did so and am
now well. Hepatozone contains no
hurtful drug, aud yet II Ii signally efii-
cient as q liver medicine.
Respectfully, w. J, MATHEWS, NJ. ID.
Austin, April IL, 1883.
Hepatozone will act thoroughly on the
liver In from two to four hours time,
and does not produce nausea or gripping
pains In the bowels.
Hepatozone win remove all diseases
incidental to disordered state OF the
liver, and Is therefore recommended In
all liver complaints. III
