A Detroit Mr.. HYDE.

OvERFEEDING THE PIGS.
It Produces Apoplexy, Paralysis and Other
Serious Ailments.

| 1t Produces Apoplexy, Paralysis and Other
Serious Ailments.
Swine are proverbially greedy, but it
is the duty of the owner of an animal
to control its natural habits when these
are opposed to its well doing; so that
the first thing to be done in feeding
young pigs is to measure their feed
judiciously. They should never have
all they will eat. Only fattening swine
should be so fed, and they would soon
die from overlooking if they were not
killed. When young pig chokes at
the trough, squeals and falls over in Il
fit, it is overfed; when it goes to the
side of the stall, champs its jaws, foams
at the mouth, and does nothing else
than this, it has been overfed, and in
both cases it is suffering from conges-
tion of the brain, due to indigestion
and disturbed circulation. 1t is in a
state of apopleXy and will probably
die, anyhow, but the others may be
saved by at once reducing their feed to
about one-tourth OF what they have been
getting. The prevalent paralysis of the
hind limbs is caused by overlooking by
which the kidneys have been oyertaXed
and the nervous system of the lumbar
region (the lions) is disturbed. Thus
the power of motion of the hind legs is
lost. Recent experiments in feeding
young pigs goes to show that a forty
pound pig needs no more food per day
than two quarts of milk and four
ounces of solid food, such as bran or
oats and corn-meal. On this allow
ance, gradually increased, pigs make
steady and healthy growth, while two
others kept in pen by themselves,
and suffered to gorge themselves, be-
came stunted, stopped growing and in
the third week one was attacked by
congestion of the brain and had to be
starved out of it, losing fully two
nonths' growth. When young pigs
ire weaned, they should be fed in
1hallow trough. from which they can
take food only slowly. A pint of milk
and two ounces of boiled corn-meal
mixed with the milk will be enough for
daily ration the first week, and
gradual increase may be made, sub
stitu'ing raw meal, not exceeding the
limit above mentioned, for IL six
weeks or eight-weeks' old pig of the
best kind, and less in ratio with less
weight. Overlooking is the common
bane of the pig. American Agricul-

HINTS FOR MOTHERS.
What to Do When One of the Youngsters
Hasthe Earache.

hds thc AShTucues
One of our little girls has been
troubled with earache since her baby
hood. No sores have gathered, but a
cold or exposure to a strong wind is
almost certain to cause her acute suf-
fering with earache. After trying
nearly every thing that have seen or
heard recommended, have settled on
this application as giving surest and
quickest relief. 1t is a flannel bag
stuffed with hops and wrung from hot
vinegar. lay the bag over the child's
ear, as hot as she will bear it, cover
the whole side of the face with dry
flannel and change the hop bag as
often as it becomes cool. The warm
steam filling the childs ear soon re-
lieves the pain.
Stuffing the ear with the "heart of q
roasted onion" tricklings of molasses,
wads of peppered cotton and Jumps OF
mutton tallow have never yet in my
experience eased earache and such irri-
tating messes crowded or poured into
the delicate labyrinth of the ear may

member what we suffered with its tor
lures in our own childhood. Heat and
moisture gave us relief, and, following
in our mothers footsteps, we have

all this work and exposure are need
less. We simply wiring Il towel from

The agreeable fashion OF burning

came in there has been demand for
the delicious pastilles, or ''reeds,"
which are the condensation of Eastern
fragrance, and their use has brought
about u greater love for aromatic odors
