a QUEER RAILROAD.

1t Is Run Upon Texan Principles, But
Gets There-Sometimes.
There is some queer railroading
down in Texas" said w. A. Shaw to
a Globe-Democrat man. There is
road down in the southern part of
the state tifty-three miles long whose
cannon-ball covers the distance in
just four hours if it has an exception
ally good run of luck. Trains are
run each way three times a week. If
one doesn't chance to get lost and so
blockade traffic until n hand-car
tracer can be sent out for it.
There are no telegraph or tele-
phone stations on the road, and when
a train leaves the terminal where the
general offices are located the con-
ductor is master of the situation until
he gets back again. Sometimes the
pneumatic tire comes off the sulky of
the man employed to ride ahead and
drive the cattle off the track, and the
train is a week making the round
trip. ! rode over the road once, then
walked back because was in a hurry.
ION the trip out we pi.ked up
drunken farmer who had laid down
on the track. The conductor CHANGED
TO know him, and held the train while
the trainman and baggage master
carried him to his home a mile away.
IN about an hour the brakeman re-
turned with an invitation from the
farmers wife for crew and passengers
to come over to supper. We went,
and after the repast an old cotton
field African, with a cracked fiddle,
was introduced and we had a dance.
The conductor then wanted TO pro.
coed, but the engineer, who was sit
ting up to the hilarious farmers
buXom daughter, said the hogs had
rooted out several crossties down be-
low the water tank, and he was APP
prehensive of repetition of the Ash
tabula disaster if we attempted to run
over that part of the road at night.
SO we stayed and danced until day
light.
1--WE got of after breakfast next
morning, and the farmers daughter
was a passenger. She wore a sun
bonnet and carried large tin pan.
Three miles out we stopped and the
crew helped her pick wild strawber-
ries enough TO fill her pail. Then we
backed up and the engineer carried
the bucket of berries over to the
house for her. When he got back hu
discovered that he was out of coal
and couldn't bulge. The farinel
kindly donated enough fence rails to
pull us out of the difficulty, and we
got through, by great good luck, in
just twenty-eight hours. Oh! some
of those roads down there are light

Pork Pointers.

Extra heavy pork is nearly always

In fattening pigs it is quite an item

a liberal allowance of bulky food
is very necessary with all kinds of
growing stock.
There are few farm animals that
pay better proportionate profit than
a good brood SOW.
The incessant drain on a SOW that
is sucking litter of pigs sharpens
her appetite amazingly, and she will
need liberal feeding.
1t is less expensive and more salts
factory in every way to keep the boar
in a good, thrifty condition rather
than allow him to get too fat.
One advantage with hogs IS That
they give returns in so short time,
that even if only a small profit is
realized they can be made to pay.
Brood sows require ration that is
rich in the elements Of bone and
muscle. The objection to some is
that it tends to cause an excess Of fat.
Oats, rye, wheat, middlings, bran
and oil meal are preferable to corn as

foods That will equal corn however

IIotbeds.

Hotbeds, by being protected at the
sides and ends with boards, and COW
cred with glass, confne the moisture
which arises from the earth, and thus
the atmosphere is kept humid and
the surface moist, and the plants are
not subjected to changes of temper
allure, as uniform state can be main
tainod, no matter what the weather
may be. The bottom heat of the hot
bed warns the soil, and enables the
grower TO put in his seed early and
obtain plants of good size before the
soil outside is warm enough to re-
ceive the seed. Care, however, is
required to prevent scorching the
young plants. In bright days the
heat is intense inside the frame, and
unless air is freely given, or some
course taken to obstruct the rays Of
the sun, most likely great portion
of the plants will be ruined. When
the sun gets pretty warm give the
glass thin coat of whitewash. This
gives little shade, and, with some
air during the middle of bright days,
will make them all safe. The hotbed
Is made by forming a pile of horse
manure with the straw used tor bed
ding, or leaves, some three feet in
height. Shake all together, so that
straw ana manure Will be equally
mixed. 1t may be sunk into the
ground foot or eighteen inches, or
made on the surface. On this place
about five inches of good mellow soil.
Then set the frame and keep it close
until fermentation takes place and
the soil is quite warm. 1t is better
to wait day or two after this, and
then SOW the seed.-Farmers Voice.
