Hardly day passes but that one may see

pedestrians have no rights that they are
bound to respect and frequently the latter
are nearly nearly run down while crossing

A Chicago packer who is watching the
feeding of wheat to hogs says that the ma
jority of the hogs now sold in market show
the unmistakable signs of wheat feeding.
The wheat makes much better and frmer
meat and more of it, and also a finer quality
of lard than corn. Those who have tried
meats cured from hogs feed exclusively on
wheat say they prefer it to corn-fed hogs.

sure of election, and Shiawasse is sure of a
