its bar and every merchant was a

whiskey we also sold hot oysters over
the bar and had big bowl of salt down
behind the counter for oysters and a
similar bowl Of sugar for whiskey.
When a man bought oysters we set out
the salt and when he bought whiskey
we set out the sugar.

LIVE STOCK BREvlTIES.

Nor SO much depends upon the build
rs upon the care and management
Sows WITH pig should be fed well in
order to have the pigs mature early.
RADICAL changes of treatment or
sudden changes Of food OFTEN result in
q disadvantage to the thrift of the hogs.
Too MUCH grain is more detrimental
to breeding stock than too little. A
good portion of their food should be
coarse and bulky.
CONSTANT feeding of corn is almost
certain to produce an excess of fat, and
this tends to produce an unhealthy
state of the system.
WHEN commencing to feed to fatten,
the brood sows and growing pigs
should be separated from the fatten-
ing hogs, at leas. when fed.
STORE up supply of clover espe-
cially to feed the pigs during the winter,
they will thrive better than if they
must depend upon grain alone.
IT is good plan in building hog
house to arrange a place to store feed
and bedding overhead: in many eases
it will be found quite "a convenience.
If hogs are fed within twelve hours
before killing, the meat is more liable
to sour than if no feed is given, while,
In addition. the food will be wasted.
WHENEVER the nights begin to get
cool good feed of whole corn can
nearly always be given with benefit.
1t is one of the best materials for keep
ing up animal heat.

they should have feeding place to
themselves, commencing with light

One remarkably cold Sunday he came

Tho Experience of Man Who Knows
How to Observe Things.
Many farmers cultivate and hoe their
crops too deep. | used to think Tor
rather did it without thinking) that it
was the proper thing to let the Guilt
yator run just as deep as | could. and
then follow with the hoe in the same
way. This was mistake, as by so
doing not only cut and tore off many
of the very strongest and best roots,
that were giving my crop the very life
it needed. but also caused the ground
to become drier. and made it heavy
work for my team and men. We should
cultivate and hoe our crops as shallow
as possible. thus leaving the fibrous
roots undisturbed to grow and nourisl
the plant. AT the same time the thin
layer of earth that we stir acts in the
most perfect manner as d mulch.
To prevent hillsides from washing,
first pillow lengthwise with the hill and
never up and down. by SO doing. each
furrow, to certain degree and for
long time, acts as sort of dam, and
holds the heavy rains back from wash
ing. Next. be sure to plant with the
drills running lcngthwise of hill. and
you thus make your crop and it's roots
act as a solid turn-water. Then the
constant cultivation you give the crop
has a tendency to make a sort of valley
between the drills, which holds the
water back, whereas if your rows run
up and down the hillside, each space
forms perfect water drain for the
heavy showers to fill up. and the water
will rush down hill, outlying ont your
land badly. More than this. if one will
take the trouble to run several burrows
with the pillow lengthwise of tine hill
between every tenth row of plants,
and not disturb it in cultivating, he
will find he has a perfect stop water
and his hillside will be preserved from
gullies AMI washing baily.-Cor Coun-

"Just for fun" said Harry. as he
cracked his whip around old Whitey's
legs, making the good horse start and
plunge, throwing Aunt Betty against
the dashboard and breaking several of
the eggs in the basket she was carrying
to a sick neighbor.
OF course Harry was sorry; but that
very afternoon, just for fun, he threw
stones among the ducks along the
brook-side, until he struck one and
broke its leg. And then he was sorry
again as he saw the poor thing limp
painfully after the others.
When he pulled Katie's curls until
she cried and slipped away Ned's chair
giving him hard fall, it was just TO,
