of the swarm, and, being OF a mecna'l'-
cal tarn of mind, slipped a collar iur-
nished with a silver bell afou [n' Tue IL.
,jcnl's neck and set it free. The result
was that the rats disappeared from that
s I house and migrated to another
= few doors off, where a studious man
of nervous temperament resided. Wax
cned in the night by a curious linking
sound, which came fitiul!y, appar-
entity rom every corner OF his room, ne
haunted by the day and by night, and
lost his health through anxiety and
terror. Having at length discovered
the cause, he has now commenced
lawsuit against the man who belled the
rat. demanding heavy damages.

The VALUE OF Conn CONVERTED Ixro
PoRK.-Secretary Rusk Of the Department Of
Agriculture says that farmers in all parts Of the
country are inquiring as to the probable
profit Of feeding corn to hogs at present
prices. He desires to state that the pros
poets Of large returns from judicious hog
feeding has seldom been a. bright as
now. In average years il takes about nine
pounds Of hogs, live weight, to bring the price
Of . bushel Of corn. This year five pounds Of
hogs bring much as . bushel Of corn. If
ten pounds Of pork are made from bushel of
corn, which may be taken as q fair return, then
the present prices Of hogs would make corn
bring about IS cent? bushel il fed to these
animals. which Is about twice as much as it is
now quoted at on the Chicago market
