Cooked on. Raw Food for
Swine.

A correspondent of the Mirror and
Farmer in commenting upon the vir-
tnes of cooked and raw food for swine
says that he has practiced both sys-
TENS and finds that raw food is the
most profitable and the best for the
hog. / have been through it all he
says. The old set kettle on the porch,
filled with potatoes and pumpkins,
boiling all the evening and filling the
house with steam, stirred up anew by
being jammed up and mixed with meal,
when we went in from our husking, so
that we could smell pumpkins and
scorched sWill in the chamber all night.
Then there is the stopping of water,
and dust, smoke and ashes from the
wood and fire; pigs squealing over
hot swlll one day, and roofing at sour
chunks OF cold dough for the next two.
All this, with the variations of locality
and circumstances, can be remembered
by every boy reared on New England
farm.
We are learning to pay great respect
to the teachings OF science; but while
we are in this yielding, blasting mental
condition, it is well to remember that
there is a difference between Scientific
theory and the results OF practical ex-
periments. There is also difference
between the value of certain articles of
food, when tested by chemical analy-
ses, and the same articles fed to stock
in proper combination with other sub
stances. Experiments at the Main
State college for a series of years have
proved that dry, raw meal for pigs is
better than cooked meal and the best
farmers and feeders in that State are
following this practice, and most of
them are also convinced by experience
that vegetables, including apples and
pumpkins, are better raw than cooked
for pigs or any other stock.
Swine are Kept for profit generally,
and to. use up such things as would
otherwise 60 to waste. But, if we must.
use fifty cents in time and materials.
to prepare ten cents worth of food. it is
not very profitable feeding, especially
when we leave the foodpoorer we
found it.

Of Wit as well as Of wisdom, he commonly

Victor Hugo's MANUSCRIPTS.


II may be interesting to those with whom
the great French poet was favorlte author
TO know that the manuscripts left by Victor
Hugo win furnish matter enough for ten
volumes. The arrangements for their pub
lioation have all been made by the poet
himself, who set them down In what Is
known rs his second will. Three volumes
are nearly ready to appear, and probably
comprise miscellaneous prose and poetry,
while the seven Others will be made up of
letters, notes, and similar documents, dat
ing from Jersey and Guernsey, and written
during the poets exile from his native land.
The publication of the manuscripts will eX-
tend over q period OF ten or fifteen years,
although the poet has fixed no special time
for their production. In the event of the
death of one or more of his literary eX-
ecutors, who are his special friends, NJ. A.
Vacquerie, NJ. Paul Meurlce, and NJ. Le-
fevre, the poet has left instructions for
their replacement by some other person
or persons to be chosen by his friends or
testamentary executors. The new eXccu-
tors are to receive SO much per cent. on the
profits Of the sale of those works. Some
difficulty still exists as to the old manu-
scripts, which the poet, during his lifetime,
had intended to leave to his friend, Nine,
Drouet, who few years ago preceded him
to the tomb. Whether Victor Hugo, after
the death of this lady, made a third will to
regulate the disposition of those manu-
scripts will not be known until the eXocu-
tors have opened his testamentary docu-
ments. This has been delayed owing to
the illness of one Of the executors. Nine.
Drouet was to have left the manuscripts to
the state at her death. 1t is affirmed that
the Messrs. Rothschild have 100000, or
100000 francs, standing in their DO olis to
Victor Hugo's account; but there is no
actual sum set down In the first or principal
win prepared by the poet in the Photographic
form. Ample provision is made in this doc
ument for his two grandchildren, for Nine.
Edouard Lockroy, and for the poets only
daughter, who Is In private asylum.-LOR-

The suit of Barrister Adams against his
prospective father-in-law, Lord Chief JUS
tice Colendge, of England, has had an end
ing in practical good to the young lady and
no damage, at any rate, TO Mr., Adams, In
this last respect the lord chief Justice is not
so fortunate. He has been shown by the
scandal TO have been very parsimonlous
and unjust parent, and his reputation as a
man must have suffered at home In consc-
quenoe Of the revelations made, as IL GER
tainly has abroad. After compelling his
daughter TO seek refuge remote from her
home, and, though the offspring of the
highest judicial officer Of tho land, TO earn
her living In such ways as were open TO her,
because he did not approve her choice, the
settlement now made by which he agrees
to pay her 5000 year after her marriage
with Adams may be accepted as a reluctant
admission on his part of his responsibilities.
