The Luscious Banana.

The banana plant is dubious. The
sprout starts up from the ground and
grows somewhat after the manner or
sugar cane. Generally in one year af-
ter it begins to grow its fruit is ready to
cut. Each tree bears one bunch OF fruit
which grows at the top. The stalk is
really composed OF successive layers of
leaves, formed by the top leaf coming
off and those around it also, which die
and dry up around the tree, thus MAX
ing the stalk. There are generally four
or five leaves at the top, new ones
springing forth as the old ones die. The
end of the stalk blossoms in manner
somewhat similar to that of the Gala
lilly. This blossom is inclosed in pad
almost the size of 4 cocOanut which is
composed of succession of leaves. AS
the pad expands the leaves drop OIL and
under each of the leaves is "hand" OF
bananas, or what we recognize as one of
the clusters on bunch of bananas. The
developing Of these successive "hands'
or LAYERS of bananas constitutes the
bunch. AS these successive layers are
developed, the bunch increases ID
weight and bends over. When the ba-
nanas are fit to be taken off, the tree is
cut partly in two about half way down
the stalk, and the tree bent over and
the fruit gathered. The tree is then
bent back again into its former position
for the purpose of preventing the water
in the rainy season from going down
into the roots and decaying them. After
the rainy season sprouts begin to shoot
up from around the bottom of the stalk,
and then the latter is cut oil close to the
butt. These shoots grow into new
trees. Sometimes there will be four or
five shoots, but ordinary only one or
two are left to grow.

Importing wild Hogs.

This spring herd of wild hogs, inn
ported from Hungary, have been turned
loose in the large forests Of Sullivan Co.,
n. Y, where they will be allowed to
multiply until the woods are stocked.
There is deal Of romance which sur
rounds the simple mention of the Wild
boar. He is the gamiest game of Europe.
He is the savagest fighter of all the wild
beasts of the Eastern hemisphere north
of the tropics. Wolves and bears are
craven towards, even when in close
quarters, compared with the wild boar.
He fights until he is actually killed by
spear thrusts, or by shot, or torn to
pieces by the dogs. He fights not to save
his own skin, but for his charges. Sew
eral sows and their progeny, up to
three or four years old, form herd led
by one grand old boar. In case OF dam
ger, the weaklings 60 to tbs center OF
circle formed by the stronger ones, and
the old general awaits the attack ana
meets the foe. They do not seek battle,
but avoid it, and they are not dangerous
until close pressed, and then they will
not pursue. Thus they do not interfere
with the occupation of the woodsman,
or with travellers through the forest, but
mind .heir own business, if not molest-
ed.
There are many sections, thousands
of acres i'm extent i'm this country, In
which these animals might well be
bred; and, if kept pure, there might be,
after a few years, every autumn, fine
sport-not unaccompanied by danger,
which always adds zest to sport Be-
sides the flesh would be eagerly sought
for I'm the market, and the boar's heads
alone, if well tusked, would sell ut
Christmas time for more than the entire
hog. 1t seems surprising that the wild
boar has not been imported before this
by some of our wealthy sportsman, and
made at home in some Of our extensive
forest ranges. We shall watch with in
terest the experiment, and make known
to our readers the progress and results.

CHECK REINs.-Check rcins, as Il gen.
eral rule, are of little use on the road,
except in the case of inveterate stum-
blers. These it is necessary to some
times check up high, so as to make them
lift up their feet, and besides, if they do
trip, the check rein Furnishes them Sc
verely. Stumbling is chiefly due to bad
shoeing, hence this use of the check
sayors Of needless cruelty. If Il horse
SHOWS tendency to stumble, pull off
his shoes and drive him barefoot, being
careful not to break his hoofs. He will
soon get over the tendency in all proba-
bility. When the feet wear, if they do,
so as to necessitate shoeing, if it is sum
mer weather put on toe clips only, and
renew them often.
The check rein is used to make a nat
urally down-headed horse carry his
head high, or as high as his mate, and
is often made an instrument of wanton
torture by unfeeling grooms and dri-
vers. The real use of the check is to
prevent horse getting his head to the
ground when standing. 1t is of no use
at all, except as above explained, when
travelling. Every horse works better
without one, whatever work he does.

CosrAerous DISEASES IN THE STABLE

CONTAGIOUS DISEASES IN THE STABLE.
When we consider for a moment the
number of diseases Of contagious ma
ture horses are subject to, and the care
less manner in which they are exposed
to the same 1t Is astonishing that we do
not have epidemics of this kind oftener
with our horses. To fully appreciate
the risk that is incurred, we need only
visit the city or country towns on court
DAYS or Saturdays, and see the number
of all kinds and conditions that stand
tied and almost touching each other in
every available space about town, to say
othing of the number that are packed
together in the public stables. The lat
ter, as a rule, are much safer from COM
ing i'm contact with disease than those
outside, for no sensible stable-man
would admit any animal inside Of his
stable that is affected with any. kind OF
contagious disease if he knew it; but 1t
often happens that neither the owner oil
the horse nor the stable-man is aware OF
the disease until it Is too late to remedy
the evil.
Contagious disease of n most virulent
character may be perpetuated for an ill.,
definite length of time by feeding horses
in stalls where the disease has existed.
OF this kind we may mention CHAMBERS
and Spanish itch especially. Either of
these most fatal disorders may be con.
veyed TO other horses by feeding in
stall where horses suffering with them
have been kept. To destroy the virus,
take "A pint of sulphuric acid and put it
in bucket of water, and with an old
mop wash all parts of the stall, especial
ly the trough and manger, as well as
the sides of the stall. Then put a few
pounds of stick sulphur in an old iron
pot, and stopping the stable as well as
possible, burn il, so rs to fumigate the
stable thoroughly, taking precautions
against fire. Ii is good plan to set the
pot in "a tub of water, then whitewash
with lime and carbolic acid. This will
protect them thoroughly.-Sptrt Of the
Farm.

FALL PIGS.-lt Is doubtful III anything
is gained ultimately by having sows
farrow twice year. The sucking of
two filters must injuriouslv reduce the
SOW, and the pigs are not properly nour-
ished thus injuring them. But when
the spring filters are still-born, o. lost
shortly after birth, or, in some eases,
when sows are too young to be bred to
farrow in the spring, it is good policy
t. breed tor fall pigs. But to make them
rs good as spring pigs they must have
good shelter and the equivalent of green
food. Swine shelters are more likely to
be made too warm than otherwise. The
swine lie close together, and their bod
les are compact, hence they require
rather open shelters. Sheltered swine
usually suffer more from foul air than
cold. Good ventilation is the first essen
tial of swine shelter. This must not
be forgotten when constructing shelters
for fall pigs, for, because they are small,
the shelter is likely TO be made warmer
than for mature swine, which is saying
that it will be altogether too warm.
They should have no litter if the shelter
will keep them dry and protect them
from winds. The equivalent of green
food is easily provided, and it is not a
more expensive food than grain. Tur-
nips can be grown after crop of early
potatoes or sweet corn has been removed
from the land, or even OH stubble ground.
The small potatoes may be gathered up
and boiled. a patch of rye will give
green food until covered by the snow
and at intervals during the winter. The
vegetable scraps may be saved, and thus
the pigs be kept thriving through the
winter.

A HOUSTON NOTE.
w. II. Baker Sues for $4,000 Loaned a
mining Company.

w. Il, Baker Sues FOR 100000 Loaned IA
Milling Company.
Special TO the Gazette
Houston, TEX, Nov. l6,-The district
court was all day trying the case of VII
liam II, Baker vs., ID, p. Shepherd, +. A.
Rice and II. B. Latham, executors of the
estate OF L. j. Latham, deceased. The
suit is on note for $4,000
borrowed money. When the Houston
Flour Mill company was erecting its
building and works, money was wanted
for the purpose, and VIM. II. Baker was
applied TO for loan. He agreed to loan
$4,000 on note signed by ID. p. Shep-
herd, f. A. Rice and L. S. Lath-
am individually. The note was executed
in that way and a check given for the
money, which was duly paid The money
was received by Mr.. ID. 7. Shepherd, one
of the makers 0f the note
aud president of the Houston
Flour Mills compsuy, and used in the
building Of the mill and getting and
placing the machinery. II was also a
part OF the agreement with Mr.. Baker
when the negotiation for the 800, 900 loan
was made, that when the mill was fin
ished the note should be taken up and
a note of the mill company
substituted, secured by first mortgage
or deed OF trust lien on the mill property.
Under our laws It seems that the estate
of msn after his death is not liable for a
debt contracted by him in his life as
security. II man dies owing q debt
merely as security his estate IS released
from the liability, Capt. l.. j. Lath.
am died before the note in
suit had been taken up
or paid and his executors hold that it is
security debt and that the estate Is not
liable. The plaintiff by his counsel Gold
thwsie Ewing, contend that the note
was not signed by either Of the makers as
securities bat by ell as principals
and proved by the plaintiffs own
testimony that he demsnds the
note in that way and refused TO lend the
money on any other terms. The de-
PENDANT, by his counsel, Messrs. Jones
s Garnett, insists that the money, Though
nominally loaned TO Messrs. Shep-
ard, Rice and Latham individually, WAS
In fact loaned to the -four mills,
company That IL was handed TO Mr..
Shepherd as president Of the company,
was received by him for the company,
was applied to the company's uses, and
that MIR. Baker knew when he
loaned 1t that it was for the
company, and that the makers OF
the vote were only using their credit to
court rendered Judgment in favor OF
plaintiff for Sl6,803 with 9 per cent in
terest. An appeal was taken.
