he has sold short at 90, and his neighbor

that he may fill his barns and store
houses, and 10! his children's lawyers
divide the spoils among themselves, and

He growleth and is sore distressed be-
cause 1t raineth; and he beateth upon
his breast, and sayeth, any crop Is lost!'
because 1t raineth not. The late rains
blight his wheat, and the frost biteth his
peaches.

DECIDED IMPROVEMENTS.
The Good Work Done in All Departments
of the GOyernment.


1t is perfectly evident to all observers
that in every department of government
at Washington decided improvement
in the modes of doing business is noted
since the new Administration came into
power. Those who have transactions
with the Government feel that the va
rlous departments are run on business
basis. General Villas ab-
solute mastery of every detail of his
office and his successful efforts to cope
with those who have heretofore had
things their own way in the department,
has won for him unstinted praise even
from his anniversaries.
Congressman Hill, of Ohio. in the
course OF a campaign speech at Def
ance, last week, made some apt al
Iusions to the prosperity of the country
under Democratic Administration.
He alluded to the wild charges of the
Republican orators last year, that all
sorts of calamities would come upon the
country in the event of the election of a
Democratic President. Nothing of the
kind has come to pass. On the other
hand, business is steadily improving.
No rebel debts have been paid, no ne
groes sent back into slavery. but the
country is moving along safely and
prosperously. The Democratic Admin
istration has instituted reforms. stopped

SOFT CORN.
Pigs More Easily Fattened on New Than
on Old Corn.

Pigs More Easily Fattened on New Than
on Old Corn.
Now is the time when pig-feeders
may avail themselves of corn in the
most digestible condition. Some erro-
neously suppose that old corn is better
for fattening than new corn. If
weight for weight of corn only is con-
sidered, this would be true. but that is
not the question. On which will pigs
fatten the fastestP When will an acre
of corn, of any certain yield, make the
most pork? VIII fifty bushels, har-
vested last year, and now thoroughly
dry, make more pork than the same
corn would have done when in the
milk or dough stateP Many, perhaps.
would answer yes, but the answer
would be wrong. When corn is in the
thick milk it is certainly moro easily
digested and a greater percentage
| will be digested, and consequently an
acre of corn in that condition will
make more pork than afterward, when
the corn becomes fully ripe and cured.
This has been proved by experiment, and
this is quite reasonable, for the more
completely it is digested the more pork
it should make. The argument for
cooking is. that this process renders it
more soluble, and thus more digestible;
but corn in the thick milk is quite as
soluble as when well cooked, and must
be equally digestible. When in this
condition, the cob is soft. and the pigs
will eat much of the cob with the grain.
When pig feeders have tested this way
of feeding they will never require an
argument in its favor afterward. This
is also a saving of labor to those who
get corn ground, for in this succulent
state it is more digestible than any.
meal. Judgment must be used not to
overfeed, for pigs are very fond of the
green corn. Commence moderately,
and watch the effect upon the pigs,
giving only what they can properly use.
Cattle will also fatten faster upon corn
in the milk than when it is ripe. ND
