HoG-RAIsING FOB PROFIT

I rom the Kansas Farmer
Mr.. II. F. Mellenbruch, of Brown
county, is thus reported at the Hamlin
Institute, recently:
He favored the cross of the Poland.
China with tho Jersey Red, using
thoroughbred males, because that pro-
duced thrifty hog. prolific in raising
pigs, marketable at seven or eight
months, and also profitable to feed
eighteen months. and ranging in
weight from 225 to 900 pounds. He
advised saving only the very best for
breeding purposes; neglect of this will
make any breed run out. The choicest
sows should have pigs early in March,
and these bred again to have pigs
in September. The rest
should have pigs in May. Do not
keep too many in Que place, for heslth
and comfort; if in a hog-house, give
them plenty of air; if in a pasture,
shade and water is desirable. Feed at
regular hours. Corn is good feed for
hogs, but they must also have some
other for change; summer grass will
do. Marketing with profit is an
unsolved problem when prices are
fixed by the combined buyers to suit
their avarice. Kansas farmers should
at least butcher enough hogs and cure
enough hog meat to supply Kansas
people, and thus save to themselves
the profit that transportation both
ways costs. Have hogs mature at
different times Of the year and it will
enable us sometimes to avoid a crowd.
ed market. Kind treatment in hand
ling will make hogs gentle, and their
raising source of pleasure.

CLOUDS or DUST AT SEA.

The German steamship Argen-
tine, now in port, had a curious ex-
perience in her passage across the
Atlantic. When north of the Cape
Verde islands the sun suddenly be-
came obscured by clouds Of small
reddish yellow dust, which covered
everything Though the sky was
cloudless, the sun could scarcely
be seen. This lasted four days,
and at times the dust was so thick
that it interfered with the ma
C iinery Of tie vessel. The Argen-
tine was steaming constantly dur
ing this time, and when she got out
Of the dust and Captain Scheon
was able to make an observation
he found he was several hundred
miles north of the Cape Verde
islands. 1t is supposed that the
dust was swept from the islands by
some wind storm.-Philadelphia

AN UNSOLVED MYSTERY.

There was one man in Salem to-
day that was happily surprised.
w. II. Simpson,, who resides
about three miles east of Salem,
came to the postoffice to-day, and
the delivery clerk with pleasant
smile, handed him a small package
together with his other mail, says
a Salem ex. of TIE Dist. The
package and its contents were not
looked for by Mr.. Simpson, SO
when he opened it he was SUI
prised, to say the least. What
was in that package, do you guess!
Why it was his testament lost by
him on the 1st day of July, 1868,
at the battle of Gettysburg, twenty
six years ago. On this day, the
first day of the battle, the boys
were ordered to throw off their
knapsacks, and from that day
to this Mr.. Simpson has never seen
his testament. Who could have
found it and sent it to him is the
unsolved mystery. The testament

A HORRIBLE DISCOVERY.

New Orleans, Sept. 19.-One Of
the most horrible cases on record
in the criminal annals of this city
was brought to light yesterday and
the perpetrator of the outrage
safely landed in Jail. Louise
Sehenmaker, a pretty blonde, aged
Is, had been missing from her
parents residence for over a year.
All efforts to locate the girl proved
futile until this morning, when
Sergeant Kenny was informed
that young white girl was kept a
prisoner in a room in the rear of a
barber shop situated on Felicity
street, by a negro named Gus
Reed. The officer repaired to the
place and finding it closed broke
open the door in the rear of the
shop. A horrible sight was pre-
sented. Standing in the center OF
the room was frail white girl, her
nakedness being hid by tattered
and torn undergarment. Her face
was pale as death, while her eyes
cleaned in an unnatural manner
AS the sergeant entered she rushed
toward him and clung tremblingly
to his arm, re peating half dozen
times in piteous tones: 'Save me.

poor creature, but her mind being

THE ORIGIN OF SUNSET"

"Sunset" Cox as Samuel Sulli
van Cox was known to thousands
of the American people, received
the name ''Sunset" from the fol-
lowing gorgeous description of a
sunset written by him while edit
ing the Statesman Of Columbus,
Ohio. This was in 1853. The
s.Sunset" article reads as follows:
"What a stormful sunset was
that of last night! How glorious
the storm and how splendid the
setting of the sun! We do not re-
member ever to have seen the
like on our round globe. The
scene opened in the west with a
whole horizon full of golden, inter
penetrating lustre, which colored
the foliage and frightened every
object into its own rich dyes. The
colors grew deeper and richer, un-
til the golden lustre was transfused
into a storm cloud full of finest
lightning, which leapedin in dazzling
zigzags all around and over the
city. The wind arose with fury;
the slender shrubs and giant trees
made obeisance to its majesty.
Some even snapped before its force.
The strawberry beds and grass
plots ''turned up their whites" to
see Zephyrus march by. AS the
rain came, and the pools formed,
and the cutters hurried away,
thunders roared grandly and the
fire bells caught the excitement
and rung with hearty chorus. The
south and east received copious
showers, and the west all at once
frightened up in a long, polished
belt of azure worthy Of Sicilian
sky.
Presently cloud appeared in
the azure belt, in the form Of cas-
tellated city. 1t became more
vivid, revealing strange forms OF
peerless fanes and alabaster tenn
pies and glories rare and grand in
this mundane sphere. But the
city vanished, only to give place to
another isle, where the most
beautiful forms of foliage appeared,
imaging a paradise in the distant
and purified air. The sun, wearied
of the elemental commotion, sank
behind the great plains of the
west. The great eye of the
heavens however, went not down
without a dark brow hanging over
its departing light. The rich flush
of the unearthly light had passed
the ram had ceased; when the
solemn church bells pealed, the
laughter of the children rang out
and joyous after the storm is heard
the carol of birds; while the forked
and purple weapon of the sky still
darted illumination around Star.

1t is now stated Oh good au thori-
ty that Steve Brodie did not go
over Niagara falls at all. The
whole thing is said to be a fake.
There is good reason for believing
that, if the water falling over Nj
agara in one minute ever fell upon
Brodie, he would never tell the
story of how it felt. Professor
w. D. Cunning estimates the
average amount passing over the
falls at 100000 cubic feet per
minute. Allowing 621 pounds to
the cubic foot, this would give a
total of 562, 500 tons per minute,
or 25,312,50O tons in forty-five
minutes, of which somewhat more
than thirds passes over the
Horseshoe falls. Other estimates
place the total amount passing
over both falls as high as 100000
900 tons per hour.
