cnnked Food for swine

The question for cooked or uncooxed
food OF SWINE Is one that cannot be
decided by any narrow series OF OK
periments- and the fact that farmers
are about equally divided regarding
the question. show that there is merit
and demerit in the results. Reasoning
from our own natures, we would un-
hesitatingly say that cooked food
would make not only the most but tho
best pork. Nearly everything which
we eat Is digested and assimilated
better when it is cooked. Nature IN
preparing her food for man and ami
mails generally surrounds IL by tough,
fibrous substances. which can only be
masticated with difficulty. and then di-
gested at "A great expense OF energy.
Cooking often softens and moistens
these coverings. SO that tho stomach
is greatly helped in its work.
Pork Is laid on the body OF swine
only according to the quantity OF food
which Is digested and assimilated. and
not according to the quantity that Is
eaten. Many pigs are great feeders
but they do not get fat. IL Is COM
mon symptom OF dyspepsia and indi-
gestion TO have u rayenous appetite
but this does not make the person fat.
On the contrary all OF the food is
taken into the stomach TO help over
load it and no good results follow.
The majority OF the experiments
have shown that cooked food thus BEN
efts swine and that they improve
faster and fatten better when fed with
cooked food than when kept solely on
raw. But another point must be con-
sidcred Cooked food by aiding the
digestion also makes IL possible TO
produce better pork. and the swine
that have been properly kept in other
ways will have sweeter and jucier and
tend erer pork for having had their
food cooked. The only question that
remains is does this extra quality and
quantity of pork pay for the time and
trouble spent in cooking food? As
suredly it does in many cases, but
each farmer must decide that for him
self II Is not such difficult matter
TO cook the food when the arrange
ments arc made for it on large
scale. American Cultivator.

To the Land or Perpetual summer
Just at this season OF the year North
ern people who are adverse TO cold
winters are beginning TO look up rail-
way guides with view of obtaining
information as 10 the shortest and
cheapest route 20 the South-~the land
Of perpetual summer and flowers. The
tourist bound for the south invariably
concludes that the Queen 4 Crescent
road. running from Cincinnati. is the
most convenient and best equipped for
passenger traffic between the North
and South The run via this road,
from Cincinnati To New Orleans Is
made in twenty-seven hours. The
points of interest are numerous and
instructive. After leaving Cincinnati
and midway 10 Lexington Is the monu-
ment to Henry Clay, standing in a
beautiful knoll in the cemetery and
overlooking the city 20 the
south. Leaving Lexington, the
train sweeps through the pictur-
esque Blue Grass country 20 the
High bridge which spans the Ken
tucky river 2s5 feet above the water
The scenery hereabout is enchanting
fand ample time is given TIE passengers
TO survey It's grandeur. A. the High
bridge is left in the distance the train
has passed into historic territory.
Wild Cat ford, Cumberland ford. Fish
er's Creek aud Mill Springs are places
made famous thIrty years ago. There
are short stops too at Emory Gap,
Walden's ridge and slack-up while
crossing the Chicamauga and Tennes-
seerivers IN sight OF famous Mission
airy ridge. A short stop is made in
Chattanooga, destined 20 become the
Umpire city OF the south. The q. ~
c. station there is one of the prettiest
in the country. The dining room Is
equipped with every dclicacy afforded
by the market.
The next point of interest is Look
out mountain. tho base of which Is
slSirted by the tracks of the Q. a G.
The view is a delightful one. The
ride through Alabama is intercepted
by small towns and cities showing
awakening industry on every hand. A
remarkable feature OF the journey is
the railrord bridge across Lake Pom
chartrain. For long distance the
sight Of land is lost to the passengers
and as one has described 1t, 1t is like
going 10 sea on railroad. All in all,
the q. Il c. route is full of interest to
the ordinary traveller.

II the federal government desires to

be little opposition on the part of the
people and the press. but If IL gives
irresponsible underlings the power TO
stamp out the press when it exercises
it's right to discuss the law, the result
will be not only opposition, but in
dignation all along the line.
Just now the papers are having a
good deal TO say about the arrest OF a

law. IL the arrest was made for
