Keep the Hog Pens Clean.
Hog pens and runs should not give
off offensive Odors any more than the
stables and pastures of horses and cat
tie, and IL they do, something is wrong
in their management, and cholera is
likely to devastate herds so kept.
Cleanliness is Il specific preventative as
well as remedy for many ills incident
to both man aud beast, and filthy quar-
ters may not only he the means of
spreading disease in the herd, but also
of disseminating fever germs, etc, III

diphtheria may trace their origin to
the dirt and filth of one kind and
another. As "A rule, the hog pens are
the most filthy places on the farm.
te-Weed-Daisy.
This is common weed all over New
England, and, how much mere widely
it is known, we are not Informed.
Some farmers are so particular to keep
it out of their fields that they go
through the grass before it is full grown,
and, as soon AS the white-weed gets
we'll up, pull out all they can see. This
method is not always etfectual, for new
plants seem to spring UP where seed
must have remained dormant for many
years. 1t flowers before most of the
grasses are fit to cut, and, if not cut
early, perfects its seed, and so scatters
enough in the field, or when gathered
into the barn, where seed finds its way
among the manure, to keep any farm
well seeded. When it grows among
clover, aud can be cut early, and well
cured, it forms quite good food for
cows, and some horses are quite fond
of il, and seem, like the cows, to thrive
upon it.
A man said recently that he had
seen cows turn away from hay to eat
with avidity well-cured white weed.
Another told of II horse which was fed
for months upon little else than white
weed, and that came ont III the spring
sleek and in fine condition. We do
not encourage the sowing of white
weed seed, but, on the contrary, adj
wise farmers to use all reasonable
means to keep it out but, if it gets in,
and an occasional crop appears, to cut
it in season, before it has perfected
seed, and get it into the barn, for it
has value. At the same time, we
should advise turning over the fields
that produce it, aud either plant hOed
crops for year or two, and then sow
down again, or turn over the sward,
manure we'll, after which it may be
sOwed down again. There is, rs "A

4 IJ-Year-OId Girls Suicide.

PHILADELPHIA. July 9.-The report of a
pistol rang out at l ,2o3 Deacon street this
morning. Then two girls ran wildly out
into the street, shrieking 'tMurder!' \
policeman ran into the house, and in the
third story front room he found "A girl ly-
ing on the floor gaSpng for breath. Blood
was flowing from wound in her head.
In one hand she held Il pistol. Before a
physician could reach the spot she was
dead She was Carrie Evans, and she had
killed herself from jealousy. The two
girls who ran into the street were Pube
Evans. her sister, and Miss Mortimer, 4
friend living in the ncighbor hood. Carrie
was only ID years old. The brother. who
went away early this morning, left his
pistol in bureau drawer. Carrie began
to TOY with the pistol, and when her sister
eXpostulated she laughed and said, II am
not afraid" She then inserted some car
tridgeS in the chambers. When Miss Nor
timer came in, almost the first words she
said We're: 81 want to show you some
thing" and held out her hand. ON the
engagement finger was ring.
''WhO gave it to you?' the Evans girls
asked
''Tony," said Miss Mortimer, repeating
the name of a young man who had been
devoted in his attentions to Carrie Evans
Carry turned pale at the proof of heI
lover perfidy. She uttered a short cry,
her lips quivered, and She could hardly
control herself enough to ask in a husky
voice did Tony give it to youE Then
her hand mechanically moved toward the
pistol, which lay on table beside her.
Miss Mortimer saw the movement, and
started to her feet, saying TO be sure he
did .
Carrie grasped the pistol and cooked it
Then springing to her feet she held the
weapon out at arm length, and said
''TGen I'll shoot you.
Miss Mortimer and Phoebe ran scream
ing from the room, and rs they disappear
ed through the door they heard Carrie
cry:
Then if I can't shoot you I'll shoot
myself
There was loud report, aud the cir
fell heavily to the floor. The ball had en-
tered her head and lodged in the brain
