All the Old Testament Written OH q
Single Sheet.

Up in a book dealers place in Broad
way, not far from Eight street, curiosity
seekers and men who can afford to in
dulge their love for old manuscripts,
can find perhaps the strangest bit of
writing known. Ona piece of parch-
ment-like paper, five feet wide and six
feet five inches high, are written all the
books Of the Old Testament, forming
the design of a window in King Solo
mems temple. No lines are used.
Written words form the whole design.
The writing is very minute, but legible
to the naked eye. Ink Of three colors
vas used, but principally black ink. 1t
is a very intricate piece Of work, mar
velous in its way, and must have taken
considerable time and patience.
The work was executed by II David
Dividson, apparently in a mood Of re-
ligious fervor. He was blind in one eye,
and his manner of writing was to lie at
full length upon the floor, on his stom-
ach, with his one eye Che was near
sighted) very close to the paper. He
died some twenty years ago. Each
chapter and verse is numbered. The
writing is not running script, but each
letter is separate; nor are the letters
much, if any, larger than a thirty-sec-
ond of an inch high. The work is for
sale, but a high price is set upon it.

departments in Swine Feeding.

In the sixth annual report of the Wis
cOnsin Experiment Station. Professor
Henry makes the following deductions
from the results of experiments to de-
termine the effects of various foods upon
hogs:
l. For the market price or cost of
production, Indian corn is beyond all
comparisonthe cheapest single-food ar
ticle for hogs. 2. Hogs will live q long
time and make a fair gain upon an ex-
elusive corn ration. 3. When kept
but when yet small, have the form and
appearance of mature hogs, being
dwarfed in size. 4. When kept upon
corn ration, with or without ashes, if
keptinthe pen, hogs seem satisfied; af-
ter eating they lie down in apparent
comfort to await the next meal. 5. The
carcass of the hog on corn ration con-
tains more fat and less waterthan doesthe
carcass of the hog On mixed ration. 6.
The carcass of the hog OF corn ration
may contain a quarter less
muscle or lean meat than that on mixed
ration. Z. Hogs on corn ration have
less blood in their bodies than those on
mixed ration. =. The liver of hogs on
corn ration weighs less than that of the
hogs on mixed ration. 8. The kidneys
Oh 0OSS Ou corn rutlOu are SLltllleI Ludu
those of hogs on mixed ration. 10. The
skeleton of the lhog on corn ration is
lighter than that of the hog on mixed
ration. II. The hide of the hog on
corn ration weighs less than that of the
h og on mixed ration. II. The hair of
the hog on corn ration may be less than
that of the hog on mixed ration. Is.
The bones of the hog on corr ration
have much less strength than those of
the hog on mixed ration. II. Hogs
living oncorn meal, water and salt, did
not seemto have their bones strength
ened by feeding Well water, instead of
rain water. Is, Hogs living on corn
meal, salt, and rain water, had their
bones doubled in strength by feeding
hard wood ashes, and still further
strengthened by feeding ground bone.
Is. Hogs fed on ground bone or hard
wood ashes had the ash material of
their bones about double in amount,
ground bones giving better results than
wood ashes. II. Hogs living on corn
meal, salt, and water, when fed ground
bone or ashes, drank more water, con-
sulmed more food, and made much
heavier gains than those n6t getting
bone or ashes. Is. There was no in
c4ense OF muscle with the hogs on corn
rition getting ground bone or hard
wood ashes, over those on the same
feed gettingno ground bone or ashes.
IL. Whilethe body of the hog, perfect
OF imperfect, is the result of Inheritance,
itcan be greatly modified by the food
given.

THE
Care in Raising Poultry.

SAIS Ill IAaiStnS 1OuAtfy.
j. NJ. Rice, of Christian County, Mo-,
contributes the following to the Prac-
teal Farmer:
Most farmers read the poultry journals
or articles on poultry in our farm papers
with q great many mental reservations,
especially when the question of profit is
treated. AS a general rule the condi-
tions as to market are not so favorable
on the farm as it is to those who consti-
tute the majority of our poultry writer's.
They are generally breeders of thor
oughbred stock and live close to the
best markets, devote their whole time
to the business and have the inside"
as to both quality and prices. But aside
from these we judge the difference in
profits is accounted for principally in
the question of care. We often hear it
said IF we only got the prices" of some
supposed favored locality then we
could make it pay largely" But they
forget that generally where large prices
are received, large expenses Ill raising
points in care at this senson of the year
are the care in setting the hens and of
the chicks until they are at least q
month old. The common faults are set
ting hens where they are constantly dis
turbed by the laying ones; not eNamin-
ing the eggs to see if they are fertile,
resulting in a comparatively small hatch
and many of these killed in the nest.
The little chicks receive the vermin
from the mother, weakening if not de-
stroying many of them; they are trailed
about in the dew, caught out in many
showers, in fact the disasters to the
young chicks are legion in numbers.
Now first, the nest boxes should be SO
arranged that they can be slipped from
the laying room through the partition
into q quiet apartment. where nothing
but the other setting hens and the at
tendant enters. Here feed and water
with other necessaries are kept, and
only an occasional outing is ever neces-
sary, and but little attention otherwise
is needed until the chicks are twenty
four hours old. Fanciers have much to
say as to their food, but We take it that
there is no special secret here. If the
mother is lousy, as is apt to be the case,
it care in u very special manner has not
been given to house and fowls, put as

THE ORCHARD.
What Trees to Plant.

Among the many new fruits that are
now offered to the public there are no
doubt many good things, but to sift out
the good from the worthless much time
and patience is required.
lie desire for something new is so
great that there are persons ready to
supply the demand with articles that
may or may not prove valuable, and
often times the innocent purchaser will
be sadly disappointed after years of
testing his highly priced novelty. 1
signal to go slow in the purchase of new
and untried fruits, especially if fabu-
lous prices are asked for them, for this
is one of the allurements held out to
lead men to buy.
liza high price is asked, the conclusion
is that the article must be of great value,
and SO men risk their money on some
thing TINT may be of no value whatever.
In h list of fruits here given we do
not wish to be understood as recon-
menulng them for general cultivation.
While some of them may do we'll over
a wide area of country, others will sue
coed only in certain localities.
Apples for the district south of the
torty-frst parallel:
Rabbit, a Seeding from the Baldwin,
pIOuuCtu Ill 1llluOlS.
Pearson, q Seeding from Washington
County, Iowa.
Arkansas Black, a promising long
keeper.
Mammoth Black Twig, resembles the
Wine Sap, but larger and better; q good
keeper.
Icy. origin, Missouri; resembles
Willow Twig; quality OF the best.
York Imperial, an old variety, yet new
in the West, where it has come to the
front as one of the most valuable Or
chard varieties. For u more northern
climate we mention as follows: Peer.
less, Patterns Greening, Wilcox, Wind
sor Chief; all new, and as yet with but
limited trial.
Pears The Idaho is before the publ,
as a pear of great value, but it has beef
tried only in the locality where it origi
mated.
Lincoln, n seeding production o
Illinois, very promising. The origina
tree IS now "a years old and said to b.
healthy and producing abundant crops
of fine fruits.
Plums-Hawkeye, Cheeny, Pottawat.
TAME, Rockford, Wyant, and Mag
noketa.. These are all native plums, be-
longing to the Chickasaw family, and
are harly as far north as Minnesota.
The Rockford is, without doubt, the
best in quality, but not as large as the
Hawkeve or Cheeny. ~
Grapes = The Meyer and Green
Mountain grapes are very promising
varieties for certain localities; the
former a seed grape similarto Delaware,
the latter a white grape.
The Eaton will be likely to succeed
over a wider extent of country than
either of the others. as it belongs to the
Labrusca family, the same as the Con-
cord. 1t is a very large grape. Among
the small fruits there is one perhaps,
that comes to us so highly recommended
for n market fruit as the Rusk straw
berry, now offered for the first time COR
sale. OF raspberries the Ada Palmer,
Nemana, and Muskingham are among
the many candidates for public favor

Making Cows Good Feed.r..

WANING No"s NOOu reeuerJ.
The COW for the dairy, no less than
animals intended for making beef, needs
to be a hearty feeder. In fact, there is
greater necessity, since the production
OF a large yield of milk demands
stronger digestive powers than are re-
CURED to luy on fat. If a calf is con-
stltutionally q poor feeder. do not try to
make a Gov of it, for it will be o disap-
polntment. But make sure before turn
ing the calf over to the butcher that the
fault is its rather than your own. Poor
feeding, either by irregularity or dis
proportioned %rations, weakens the
digestive organs. The most common
mistake in feeding calves with other
than milk is in giving too rich food,
Ind that containing 700 little material
for making growth. Dat meal is excel
lent, especially if the coarse parts are
removed, and it is then cooked. But
after the calf is three or four months
old 1T should be given as great a variety
as possible. If early accustomed to eat
anything lset before it, the habit will
last through life, and a COW thus reared
VIII be invaluable for families keeping
only one animal, to which all the eata-
Bile refuse from the kitchen, including
the warm dishwater and skinned milk,
may be given. If a COW is thus trained
to cat anything she will improve her
dairy qualities, and transmit these char
acteristics to her Young.
