roedlnr Hogs for Fat or can.


The experiments conducted by Prof.
w. A. Henry, at the Wisconsin agricul-
tural experiment station, last year, in feed
ing hogs, have excited much interest. The
character of the growth was found to be
Largely influenced by that of the food.
Regarding these exper .ments Prof. Henry
writes to us: 81 am repeating the expert
ment in different forms, and have con-
frmatory evidence that the composition of
the body of the hog can be very consider
ably affected by the kind of food given.
Do not try to show that we can produce
carcasses fat and lean at will for the table,
because the notifications by feeding have
In reality rather narrow range. If we
modify the form slightly in one generation
by the way we feed, it is natural to con-
clude that in few generations we can
very materially affect the form and con-
stitution of an animal by proper OF i'm
proper feeding. The hog being greedy
animal and easily satisfied when enough
food is supplied, has been greatly abused,
especially here at the west in the great
corn district. The sermon l wish preached
from the text have given is one in breed
ing rather than producing lean meat
as against fat for the table, though
we certainly can increase the lean by
proper feeding to degree worthy of con-
sideration, and its favor is also capable OF
being improved. Witness the Irish and
southern bacon in comparison with that OF

Good Tres for Smoky Cities.

The gingko tree is proving itself one
of the best trees for street planting in
smoky cities, thriving in the most i'm
pure atmosphere ana not having as yet
been attacked by insects or fungus dis
eases. In this country, according to
Garden and Forest, extensive use has
not been made of the gingIo as street
tree except in Washington, where, OF
course, it is not subj tied to the test OF
an atmosphere impregnatel with
smoke. If it is. in Iced, able to with
stand the most unfavorable conditions,
it might be more generally adopted,
for it grows rapidly, its shape we'll
ad ipts it for association with ARCHITECT
ural forms, and the peculiar character
of its foliage always makes it interest
ing to the popular eye. -Gardener's

acre, ana we Mn proclaim it the banna

acre, and We wiN proclaim it the bannm
farm crop of the world. There is no other
general crop but alfalfa that will do 1t.
In Montrose county we are assured that
as high as seven tons from the acre will be
had. Six tons are claimed in the Arkansas
valley and as many as seven in the Monte
yuma. In the northern part of the state
where farmers are conServativ, they claim
they will get from five to six. Mr.. Rosen-
krans, whose farm is in Eastern Arapahoe
county, got three tons from the first cut
ting and the plant stood fully five feet
high before it was downed by the cycle.
Alfalfa is really wonderful plant that
grows greater and greater in Importance as
we get acquainted with it.
Now, while the prices for beef and NUT
ton remain as in the past few years, every
ton of well cured alfalfa can be made
worth IS or more to the producer. But in
order 10 do this, judgment must be exer-
cised in the selection of the feeders and in
the feeding. In conclusion we viii assert
that alfalfa is a far more important and
profitable crop to the farmers of Colorado
than corn or wheat are to tho farmers OF
Iowa.-Denver Field and Farm.

The Great Crop Of Alfalfal

This will be the banner year for the
great forage plant in Colorado. Prior to
this year there had been three tons, and
in some instances four tons, harvested
from single acre, but this year thousands
of acres viii. go six, seven and eight tons.
In many Instances 1t grows so stout that
the machinery in use is scarcely capable
of cutting and handling it. There are
fields that will yield six tons to the acre
from the first two cuttings. Then there
will be one more, and possibly two more
crops gathered before the frosting in the
fell. Now, If this crop should turn the
producer IS per ton, then he will be doing
as well as he could reasonably have done,
and better than with any other crop on
earth. Show us a farm crop that will go
every year producing without reseeding or
replowing, and with no expense but TO irri-
gate and to harvest. and TO turn to the
pocket Of the producer 900 or 90 from the

About Dogs.

Spitz dogs should be provided with
cuspidors.
Because shepherd dog is skillful in
folding sheep, that is no reason for
supposing that he could be utilized for
paper folder.
The African bloodhound is more
popular than it was when prejudice
against African blood was so much
greater.
A full-blooded dog is one whose
blood would measure about nineteen
quarts. To determine whether or not
your dog is fuli-blooded, bleed him.
A coach dog is never happy unless
he is able to keep coach. In the alb
sence of that, however, his tail will
keep a Vaughn.
The length OF a dog varies, but when
turned into yard he is always three

Pork and Porkers.

Save and cook the small potatoes for the
pigs.
The hog doesn't object to seasoning of
curculio in his fruit.
The hog is omnivorous and is much
benefited by the right sort of vegetable
food.
When the hog gets more variety in his
food and less variety in his drink, he will
not have the ''cholera" so often.
The first point in making cheap pork is
to get the hog to market in the shortest
possible time. The same food makes more
pork in early fall than in midwinter, for
less of the food is used to produce animal
heat.

A Hairless Horse.

A very interesting equine curiosity, in
the shape of horse absolutely without
hair, arrived recently from Australia, says
the San Francisco Call. 1t was exhibited
to few commissioners of horseflesh by the
owner, r. A. Cunningham. The horse, OF
rather the mare, for it belongs to the latter
gender, is pronounced phenomenon. Her
skin is black and as smooth and as fine as
human being. She stands little over
Is hands high, and is about Z years old.
1t would be difficult to find handsomer or
more shapely animal She looks well bred
and is strongly developed. In action the
movement of every muscle is plainly de-
scernable by reason of the animals utter
nakedness. Were it not for her abnormal
appearance the horse would make most
excellent carriage horse. Anything more
peculiar than the appearance of this beast,
with her smooth, shiny skin, black rs
ebony, attempting to whisk from her back
with hairless, stumpy tail, the flies clus-
tering there it is impossible TO conceive.
The softness and smoothness of every por-
ton of her anatomy, even where the name
ought to be found, precludes the idea that
the hair has been gotten rid of artificially,
as by shaving. The black-lesaing process
which has not infrequently been used in
the preparation of freaks of this character,
has not been resorted to here. Viewed
from behind, something in the make of the
animals back suggests the elephant Mr..
Cunningham purchased the mare in Echu-
ca, Victoria, from farmer, who, utilized
her as buggy horse. She was driven
every day distance of ten miles, her ten
der skin being protected by rugs and
blankets.

Says the Texas Live Stock Journal: ut
is not rather paradoxical to call splenic
fever Texas fever when it is unknown
among Texas cattle? No southern Texas
man has ever seen the disease unless in
the north or among imported cattle, and
no one has yet ever found the meat of the
cattle charged with giving the fever in any
way tainted or in diseased state. This is
midsummer problem for the veterinaries
of the bureau of animal industry to work
on" And again: ''Now, so far as the
circulation and influence of this paper go,
we propose to have it understood that they
are not our cattle that have the fever.
They are the other cattle. The man, or
paper who says that south Texas cattle
have Texas fever, or any other kind of
fever-in short, that they are not perfectly
sound and healthy-is either an ignoramus
or liar. They have as many theories on
hog cholera in the north as they have on
Texas 90 fever"

OF years the grand duke and his bride
lived together on the Riviera and in
Italy. Repeated efforts were made to
sever their relations, but without sue
cess. and not even the late emperor's
action in decreeing the annulment of
the union, both as car and as supreme
head of the Russian church, was able
to detach the grand duke from his
blonde and dark-blue-eyed wife. AT
length, in despair. the emperor dis
patched Count Shouvalotf, at that time
chief of the third section of the impe-
rial chancelierie, or in other words,
the head of the secret police, to the
Riviera for the purpose of making a
last attempt to D-ing about q final
rupture between the maynard
prince and the young baroness.
The count happened to reach
Nice during a temporary absence
of tho grand duke at Paris and
was able to have a long conversation
with the ex-maid OF honor before her
husbands return. What took place
during that interview no one will ever
know. For the count is dead and the
baroness and her two children nave
mysteriously disappeared, no one
knows whittier The arguments which
Shouvalof used must, however, been
singularly powerful, for without wait
ing to speak q word of farewell to
Alexis she left Nice and vanished from
sight. Not even her relatives know to
this day whether she is alive or not.
How the grand duke took the matter
| am unable to say. Like many big
men he is somewhat weak of character
and easily led. On the whole, how
ever, he seems to have taken matters
pretty quietly, and few weeks later
left on a prolonged cruise around the
world, during the course of which he
visited New York.
| may add that with the object OF
making the disgrace of Alexis more
marked and his punishment more
severe, the car has recalled his uncle,
| the Grand Duke Constantine Nicolai
witch, from the Crimea and has con
ferred upon him the post of lord high
| admiral and the other honors of which
he has just shorn his exiled brother.

Rein for a Leading Horse.

James S. Rude, Orange county, New

reins, which, with those of the wheel
horses, would make four to handle, he
uses single rein, long enough to reach
from the driver 10 the bits of the leading
horse, running through hame ring, with
strap from the other side of the bit
stretched on directly over the horses
shoulders. A straight pull on the rein

A SUGGESTION VOICED.

1t has been suggested, and we
consider the suggestion worthy of
record, that the public convenience
would be enhanced by keeping open
Government offices continuously
each day from the tune of first open
ing to the hour of final closing. 1t
is said that the hour at noon, from
II to O'Clock, during which oili-
cials vacate their offices, is the most
convenient for many business people
having dealings with the Govern
ment, to he at Government house,
and offices being open for the trans
action of business during that hour
would be great accommodation.
1t is not meant that office hours
should be increased by the addition
of an hour, but that an hour should
be taken from one end and placed
in the middle; that is, instead of
office hours being from 8 o'clock, a.
IN. to 4 O'Clock, p. m, with an hour
of intermissiOn at noon, they be
from 8 TO 3 without intermission. 1t
may he added, that in adopting an
arrangement of this kind we should
follow precedents that exist else.
where: But whether such prece
dents are good for our imitation, il
our peculiar circumstances, may b,
questionable. We merely voice th,
suggestion, and invite discussion.
