But the taste of the market has
changed. Big hogs are no longer in
demand. Instead of an animal weigh.
ing 450 pounds, one of half that weight
is the kind desired. Big hogs can
only be sold at reduced price. Con-
spmers demand smaller hams and
shoulders and we'll streaked bacon,
while lard has been almost completely
superseded by cottonseed oil.
To supply changed conditions the
type of hog has undergone marked
modification, and swine breeders will
do we'll to recognize it in order to
market their pig crop at gain.
While the smaller breeds are more
largely used, the chief difference has
been in the feed. Plenty of corn
means the ability to produce plenty
of pork, so that it must remain our
chief hog food; but corn is only one
of the leading food factors in success.
full pork growing.
Many farmers have made q practice
of keeping pigs constantly on corn,
which has tended to bring on an un.
healthy condition and render the ami
mails easy victims of hog cholera.
Barley, wheat, peas and clover or
alfalfa should also enter into the
rations. Both the health of the ami
NAL and the quality of the meat are
affected by the diet. The latter is SO
well recognized that pork made from
a mixed ration brings higher price
than that made from corn exclusively.
It is worthy of careful note that in
the great hog markets of the world 1t
is not the hog from the great hog
producing countries that sells at the
highest prices, but the meat of the
hog from dairy sections such as Dem
mark, and, to certain extent, from
Ireland.
1t is also well to remember that fat
tening animals ought not to be fed
longer than necessary to bring them
up to maturity. 1t is well-estab-
lished fact that gain can be made in
hogs weighing 200 pounds much
cheaper than in those weighing 400
or over. Feeding and trying to fat
ten old animals is not paying bust.
ness, generally speaking, rs proper
returns are not obtained for the food
consumed. New York World.

TIE ART IN GOOD SOUP.

In the art of cooking there are un.
told details to be learned, and among
them the most important in that great
art-the making of soup. A noted
traveller once remarked, ooh, the bad
soups I have eaten at people's houses !"
The fashioned soup of fifty years
ago was thick glutinous mass which
was dinner in itself. When the soup
was done the soup meat from which
the soup was made was served and con-
sidered an excellent dish. But nova
days the soup has become o separate
institution, the commencement of the
dinner after the half dozen oysters
are served.
In this age the French soup is the
delicate liquid that is usually given.
1t requires genius of II home woman
to accomplish this desirable end, for
it is only one in a hundred of ordinary
families, whose cooks are not up to
the mark in all dishes, that really can
make good pot of soup. For the
breakfast In fourchette, the soup, if
one is to be part of the menu, should
be light and delicate, and for dinner
the same should be served.
Meat for soup should always be lean,
and that from the shank is excellent.
1t is muscular and full of nutriment.
For every quart of soup allow ono
pound of meat without fat. 1t should
be washed, then placed in kettle with
one quart and pint OF cold water and
teaspoonful of salt. After boiling
slowly for five hours there will be only
one quart of the liquid, the extra pint
having been lost by evaporation.-New
York Recorder.

USES OF RAW HIDE.

For wide usefulness, few things ex-
teed raw hide, though it is not COM
monty understood in the East, or
among civilized people as should be
the case, writes Hollister Sage. The
Western pioneer, through necessity,
learned the art of manipulating it
long years ago, and its use has not
been forgotten. A coil of sun-dried
cowhide tied to the plow handle, tur-
ret ring or wagon stake, is security
against breakdowns and many mishaps
which arc likely to overtake the
farmer or teamster. Soaked in water,
it becomes timber quickly and will tie
harness, wagon or other things to-
gether and hold them firmly, whether
wet or dry. When it dries, it shrinks,
binding more firmly than over. On
the treeless, rainless wastes OF The
Southwest, where fiercest sun and
constant drying winds would shrink
the tire from any wheels used in moist
climates, the raw hide tire is indis-
pensable, because the dryer it gets
tho closer it sticks If after long
wear the tire is found loose, new one
can bo quickly whipped about the
wheel at night, ready to start with in
tho morning. For belt laces, traces
and other harness straps, chair bot
toms and innumernble other places
where hard wear is demanded the raw
hide with tho hair exposed, or turned
in out of sight, is invaluable and could
be used in the older States oftentimes
with great advantage. Or these skins
may he ''tawcd." as the process is
called where the hair or fur is pre-
served, and no tannic acid is used.
This is done by spreading a mixture
of finely powdered salt and alum in
equal quantities upon the moist flesh
side and doubling one, or laying pairs
flesh sido together. The hides are
left thus for several days, when they
seem to have become something like
leather. They are then stripped.
scraped, rubbed with chalk and pun
ice stone until smooth, and pulled and
scraped while drying to make them
soft. Country Gentleman.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
ZOE CHEST MANAGEMENT.

Food that has little odor itself, and
food that absorbs odors readily should
be placed at the bottom of the refrig-
orator. All foods with a strong odor
should be kept on the top shelves.
Sour milk or cream should not be
kept in the refrigerators. Salad
dressings, tartar sauce and celery
should be covered closely so they will
flavor everything that is shut up with
them. Pineapples, strawberries and
raspberries, should not be shut into a
common ice chest with milk or cream.
In the refrigerators where there is q
circulation of dry air, butter, milk,
cream and other delicate foods may be
kept in the lower part of the refriger-
ator, and the fruits, vegetables, ETC..
with stronger flavors and odors, may
be kept on the top shelves. 1t ar
ranged in this way there will be little
danger that one kind of food will alb
sorb the flavor OF odor OF another

TO CATCH MoLEs.

A correspondent of the Rural World
says: Anyone who can catch fish can
cutch moles. We do not catch them
with hook and line, but it requires
about as much patience. Find the
place where the moles are working,
then open the run for aboutsi inches
and put in loose dirt at each end of
the opening; then fill up the run and
press it down. This will prevent him
from passing. AS he attempts to pass
he will come in contact with the OBJ
struction and will press the dirt up
wards in order to get through. Now
is the time to do tho work for the lit
tie pest. So be ready with mottock
and dig him out. Be sure to strike
behind him or you may fail to get
him. The best time is IN the morn
ing about sun up and noon and before
sun down.

CUT FEED.

OUT FEED
For work or driving horses, those
in daily use, cut feed moistened and
mixed with finely ground meal, being
much more easily digested, is prefera-
BILE to whole grain and uncut hay.
The saving of food is another reason.
Where whole grain is used consider
able portion of it is voided undigested
in the excrement. The best cut feed
is made by mixing clover hay moist
ened with oats.-and corn ground to-
gether. New York World.

Held Up.

The east bound passenger train which passed Benson Monday morning was held up one and one-half miles cast of Maricopa by three masked men who rode up to the track horseback. Tue train had left Msricopa station only few minutesswhen the engineer was Jagged by display of red light. He brought the train to standstill. The robbers immediately commenced shooting, and the passengers all sought safety by getting under the seats. One robber stood guard over the engineer and fireman while the other two went to the express car and made a demand upon the messenger for the treasure box, which he gave up. They also took his watch and chain. The rob bers eyinced disposition to enter the coaches and rob the passengers, but after discussing the matter in the hearing of all, concluded not to do so, mu to the relief of the thoroughly frightened occupants of the coaches. They then remounted their horses and rode away in the darkness. The train backed up to Maricopa, reported the proceeding and proceeded on It's way only half an hour late
 As soon as possible posse started out under lead of Sheriff Drais Of Pin al county Tho trail of tho robbers was found and traced several miles, and then 1t doubled, toward Phoenix. Within seven miles of that place they were joined by Sheriff Murphy, Of Maricopa, and they came suddenly upon three men in heavy thicket Of mesquite timber. They were at once ordered to throw up their hands, uhereupOn they immediately opened frc upon the posse, which was re- tarned with sigor. After brisk fight
