in other kinds of stock for farmers to
take up something less than the best
because Of lis high price. But the
pig is the farm stock that no ore is
too poor to own. It increases rapidly,
and by crossing with thoroughbred
boars of any established breed, and
selecting the best for breeders it
power ot any man to- get
more out of his feed than he has done.
This is practically the same as selling
their grain at a higher price. a thing
that if attempted in any other way
than by feeding it to improved stock
reminds US of a man who tried to lift
himself up by pulling at his boot strap
while he was standing in his boots.

A kind of bituminous rock which is
found in several places in California
Is being extensively used for street
pavements in that state. These pave
ments are very like the asphalt pave
ments in New York and other eastern
cities such as that in Wall street.
The only difference between the two
materials is said to be that asphalt is
a manufactured article made of btu
men and sand, while the rock has
practically the same elements naturally
