prevailed in all portions of the list, though
fluctuations were on a very limited scale and

in one or two speciaities. Opening figures were
only slightly changed from those Of last even

however and at II o'clock the market was
dull and stagnant at small fractions below

THEY AGREED THEN AND EVER
AFTER.

A Baptist minister took charge of
a parish near Boston where he knew
that one man was decidedly opposed
to his pastorate. Soon after his
arrival the Rev. Mr.. X. called upon
Mr. A
"Brother," said he, IL hear that
you think l a IN the wrong man to be
the pastor Of this church."
''Well, to be frank, replied Mr.. A.,
Il do think that another would have
filled the place better
Nov that is just what | think, "
said the pastor But as long as we
hold this opinion in opposition to the
majority of the parishioners, let's try
to he unselhsh and make the best Of
it,"
After that call, Mr. X. never had a
tirmer friend or more faithful cham
pion than Mr.. A. Boston Herald.

FEEDING HOGS FOR WEIGHT.

The farmer who diminishes the
ration of maize, allowing but por-
ton only, substituting therefor bran,
middlings, milk, and clover cut fine
and scalded-will have his hogs
larger, heavier, healthier, and Of a
better quality of flesh than from
corn. While getting the advantages
of a systematic method of feeding for
the best results in producing the
heaviest pork, the fact that prime
lard brings a price that makes it
desirable on the part of the farmer
to have his hogs fat, it must be
admitted that it is serious obstacle
in the way when lean meat is adj
vocated, but the lean is simply in
terspersed with the fat, and the
greater increase from the variety of
food does not diminish the supply Of
lard. The farmer will find that in
those portions of the carcass from
which the lard is produced but little
difference will be observed, and the
hog will be much more valuable as a
whOle.-T American Farmer.
