INHUMAN TREATMENT.

An investigation of the Riverside Peniten.
tiary near Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, discloses
state Of affairs equaling in barbariry the
Tewkesbury Almsherse Of Massachusetts
Insane inmates Of this Riverside institution
were placed in straight jackets and electric
currents applied to their heads until the
blood ran from their noses. Some were
dipped into an ice.cold bath and then
scrubbed until the skin was worn off their
backs and the raw, bleeding flesh exposed
The miserable patients were subjected to the
most inhuman treatment in the presence Of
the physician in charge, who laughed while
the victims wrilhed in agony.
1t seems incredible that the unfortunate
inmates of State Institution can be subject

and pleasure Of an official appointed because

TORS for the position, and it will be still
stranger if the individual is punished or even

CuriOsities of Appetite.

Sir J. Gorst said in the English Par
Lament the other day, to illustrate the
ancient truth that ''one mans meat is an
othe mans poison" that he was once Sc
verely cross examined by party of New
Zealand chiefs who had strong views on
the depraved English habit of eating
what they called decayed cheese. He
might have further elucidated the pro-
verb with long list of eatablcs in which
we delight, but which certain savages
cannot even mention without feeling Of
repulsion. A while ago DR. Finsch saw
hens scratching around in New Guinea
villages, and learned that the domestic
fowl is good for nothing except feathers.
The natives could hardly conceive that
human beings would eat such a creature,
and the bare idea of lunching on eggs
was enough to make a respectable Pap.

particularly of white, heighted tNc
charms of the fair sex when tastily dis
posed in their abundant frizzes, and so,
after all, these gentle birds were not
made wholly in vain.

Waste of Natural Gas.

The american Manufacturer prints an
article calling attention to the waste of
natural gas which is going on in those
districts where it has been discovered in
abundance and devoted TO practical ends.
The article gives figures gathered from
certain number of factories in Pittsburg,
and the tables show that from twenty-five
to thirty-fve per cent. of the whole
amount of natural gas consumed in these
establishments is wasted, either through
the use of defective apparatus or the care
lessness and indifference of operatives. 1t
cannot be said that there are reliable in
dications showing that there will be any
general failure of the gas supply in the
near future, but the dictates of ordinary
prudence are all on the side of a consump-
ton which is adequate to the carrying on
of business, and not on the side of squan-
dering valuable fuel merely because it is
cheap and the supply seemingly mex
haustible.

WISE WORDS.

Good words are good, but good deeds
are better.
There is a woman at the beginning of
all great things.
Censure is the tax man pays to the
public for being eminent
knowledge is dearly bought if we sac
rifce to it moral qualities.
The sweetest thing in life is the un-
clouded welcome of wife.
In youth one has tears without grief,
in old age grief without tears.
We find self made men very often, but
self-unmade ones a good deal oftener.
And be aware of thine own children;
and take heed of them of thy household.
Where pride is there also shall bere-
proach, but where humility is there also
is wisdom.
To know how to be silent is more diff
cult, and more profitable, than to know
how to speak.
A man should never blush in confessing
his errors, for he proves by avowal that
he is wiser to-day than yesterday.
Beware of him who meets with a
friendly mien, and, in the midst of a cor
dial salutation, seeks to avoid your
glance.
A homely man of merit islnever repul-
sive; as soon as he is named ,his physique
is forgotten the mind passes through it
to see the soul.
No man in daily life ought to be salts
fed with what his life now is. He ought
every day to be looking forward TO some
of the possible improvements.
There are few husbands whom the wife
cannot win in the long run by patience
and love, unless they are harder than the
rocks which the soft water penetrates in
time.
If you will be as pleasant and as anxious
to please in your home as you are in the
company Of your neighbors, you may
have one of the happiest homes in the
world.
Charity itself commands US, where we
know no i'll, to think well of all; but
friendship, that always goes a pitch
higher, gives a man peculiar right and
claim to the good opinion of his friend.

HOW TO REAR YOUNG PIGS.

The following extracts are taken from
paper read by DR.. G. H. Grimmell, be-
fore the American Poland China Record
Association:
''There are great many breeders and
raisers of pigs, and each one has a road
marked out tolerably we'll, and thinks,
perhaps, that his way is the best.
'And now for me to try to tell this
audience of intelligent breeders and ex-
perts how to rear young pigs. First,
quietness about their quarters, as few
visitors as possible outside of persons in
charge, feed for dam for first few days
nothing but a little bran and water, a
nice clean bed of hay, not too much so as
to heat or entangle pigs therein, but
sufficient for comfort, with good sunlight
on warm days, and a good ventilation,
clean troughs and good hygienic surround
ings, with a good grass lot to run in and
out, pen to be occupied by dam, have
pens and lots so as TO admit those of the
same age to the same run.
"Increase the sow's ratiOns as the pigs
increase in age, by giving ground oats,
bran and a small portion of oil cake, till
the sow supplies milk for the litter, never
feeding any sour swill to sow, as that will
impair the young pigs digestive organs,
and you will have diarrhea, white scour,
as called, from the deranged condition
by the fermentation of sour swill, through
the sow's milk.
"When the pigs are large enough,
commence to encourage them by feeding
in a separate trough, from the dam
sweet milk, soaked corn in small quaint
ties and oats, and as soon as they viii
take hold of same, give them libera
supply Of ground oats, bran, oil cake anC
soaked corn, never losing a minute bu
TO see if they are just loose enough to b
good hearty eaters at six weeks old; b.
that time have them learned TO do with
out the dam, which turn out, and leay
them their old quarters to run in and ou
at will then feed them Just what the
will eat clean from one feeding TO th
next, and increase feed as their appetit
increases and they digest the same, nevc
allowing their feed TO become sour, mix
ing my swill fresh morning and evening
which they relish with an appetite fit fC
a king. Always keep appetite gooc
bowels regular, clean quarters and aboy
all allow no constipation in your pigs.N

COTTFD FLEECE,

"Cotted" fleece in sheep is not con.
fined to any breed or country, but is
found among all races, everywhere. This
condition of fleece is caused in many
ways, and may be best understood as a
stoppage in the growth of the wool and
yolk, caused by a sudden change in the
environments of the animal, as from good
to poor food in winter, chased by dogs,
physical injuries and difficult partu,
tition. 1t sometimes occurs after hard
drive on the road, when the animals are
put in a cool or damp place and allowed
to rest; but one of the greatest melting
causes is plunging them into cold water
1T washing-time when they have been
overheated by driving. Thus it may be
seen that this deterioration of the fleece
results from some sudden adverse dis
turbance, and although the other effects
may speedily pass away, the fleece is per-
manently injured. Breeding ewes are
most liable to cotted fleece. Floclls in
which this condition is found most
largely are usually those which possess
delicate constitutions and lack of
stamina. Where this occurs to sheep
two seasons in succession they should be
weeded out,-Neto York Tribune.
The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1889-07-03
WHAT OATS REQUIRE,

Oats require a long season for growth,
and cool weather; therefore sow them
early, but do not SOW on frozen ground
with the expectation that they will sink
down in the mud and sow themselves.
This slipshod method will do for the poor
ignorant and wretched (no men more SOY
Egyptian "fellahs" who scatter their seed
wheat on the rich mud left by the floods
of the river Nile, but not for an American
farmer sowing oats in the spring. For
this crop the land must be thoroughly
well plowed and harrowed-it should
be plowed in the fall, in fact--and the
seed must be well covered And this il,
to be done as early as possible. Three
years ago we sowed oats in warm spell
in February but did not cover the seed
deep enough; hard frost in March
killed nine-tenths of the plants.-Neu
