Sick Headache.

The periodical recurrence of sick
headache, with many persons, is
grievous affection. Those who suffer
from it should correct every habit, and
avoid all indiscretions, which they
know are likely to be followed by an
stack. They should also overcome
every arrangement Of the system
which exists, if possible, and strength
en- every part and function of the
same. In fact, they should treat at
first not the head and its aches, but
endeavor to build up the general
health. In the attempt to do
so they must not indiscrim-
inately dose themselves with
drugs, but rather depend upon
pure air, exercise, sufficient sleep, good,
wholesome food and like measures.
One of the greatest essentials in treat
ment will be careful selection of diet
and rigid restriction to those articles
of food which, in their experience,
have proved the least burdensome to
their digestive organs There is no
dietary which is alike suited to all.
Each must learn what, and how much,
is proper for him or her to eat, and
what should be avoided, and those sub
stances which are known to be difficult
of digestion should never be INDUCED
In. While careful not to tax the stom-
ach, they must keep the bowels active.
If constipation losH,s, headaches are
quite certain to l.ar. IN. Y. Ledger.

MUSHROOM CULTIVATION.
DO Not Come Up All at Once, Nor ID,
They Grow Forever.

DO Not Come Up All at Once, Nor Do
They Grow Forever.
Mushrooms do not come up all at
once, nor do they grow forever. II the
spawn is good and planted early in
September, from four to five, and
sometimes six, weeks will expire be-
fore the first crop of mushrooms makes
its appearance.
The first crop will flow for two or
three weeks, then the mushrooms will
thin out, and slight dressing of fresh
loan, about halt an inch in depth,
should be spread over the bed. When
this coating has been beaten down
with spade, the soil should be gent
ly mostened with tepid water, and in
a day Or two a second crop of mush-
rooms (often better than the first) can
be gathered. The second crop of mush-
rooms may last for three or four weeks,
andabout the latter part of December
the spawn will be found to have ex-
hausted itself, and fresh manure, fresh
spawn and fresh loan must be pro-
cured for the formation of new beds If
another crop of mushrooms is desired.
To grow mushrooms successfully
great care must be taken to obtain
fresh spawn, which can be bought in
all the horticultural stores. But if
the cultivator wishes to make his own
spawn, he can do so by following these
directions: Take equal portions Of
horse dropping, COW dung, and fresh
loan, you mix the whole thoroughly
together, as you would make mortar.
Then form the matter into%cakes
about the size of large brick. Place
these bricks on edge under cover until
they become half dry, then insert into
each brick a piece of spawn half an
inch or so square, and let the bricks
remain until they are quite dry. Then
spread about eight inches of horse
dung over the floor of the shed, on
which build the bricks in pile, keep
ing the side in which the spawn has
been put uppermost. Then cover the
| pile OF bricks over with sufficient sta

weeks the spawn will have spread it.

and IN some measure to assist in the

ana IN some measure TO assist In the
movements OF the internal organs. 1t
Is q universal rule that the use Of all
muscles develop their size, and lack
OF use causes them to perish. 1t is
equally true that the more animals
are upon their feet and in active mo-
ton the more such muscles will be In
use; and 1t is further true that all
swine have the same number Of mos
eies' IT therefore follows that in a
long narrow body the side muscles
must be nearer together than in the
short, deep-bodied animals.
IT Is true that the width or thickness
OF the muscles may, and do, exert some
influence as to the proximity of the
several muscles Of the sdes1but not
sufficient to affect the fact that they
are much closer together In the long,
round body than in the short, deep,
fat-sided animal. Fine, hair indicates
fine skin. and fine sixth indicates fine
tissues, especially of the fat tissues.
In round-bodied animals the excess of
fat stored up is placed muchs more
plentifully uponthsS back than In fat
sided animals, and in such, eases the
round-bodied animals fat Is. as a rule,
frmer than the fiat-bodied ones.
Age and condition have also an In
fiuence, in that the younger animals
usually produce muscles that are
tender as compared with aged ami
mails Quickly-fattened animals also
produce more tender meat than
those that are always fat. An
animal that is too fat is not so
good for bacon as one that has only a
moderate amount thereof, Sows that
have sucked pigs are not good bacon
producers because the portions covered
by the udder IS more or less impaired,
but that difficulty may be more than
counterbalanced by the extended use
of and growth of the belly muscles
during the carrying period.
Assuming that the foregoing state
ments are true it is easy to conclude
that 1T is the long, round bodied, fine
haired and firm-feshed, moderately
fatted animal from ten to eighteen
months of age that make the best
bacon producers. There are in every
breed such animals in greater or
lesser degree, and by care and selec-
tion such strains of animals can be
easily produced by care' in selecting
and mating. Cor. American Swine.

HOGS FOR BACON.
Which Is the Best Breed for Smokehouse
Purposes


Purposes
Where there exists SO very much
honest and persistent diversity of opin-
ion among swine breeders touching the
above query, it will be impossible to
settle such an important question to
the satisfaction of all the readers of
the Swine Breeder. But, notwithstand-
ing such conditions, lit may not be
amiss to so examine the matters sug-
gested and thereby set thinking ma
chimes in motion which may result in
practical experiments and resulting
progress.
In this article no breed or breeds will
be named, but the better kind of ami
mails for the purpose will be de-
scribed and the readers are left
to determine whether the ad-
herents of any one breed can suc-
cessfully claim pre-eminence for
their favorite, for it may be truthfully
said that between different animals Of
the same breed are often found as
radical opposites in good bacon pro-
ducing qualities as between those of
different breeds.
1t Is not the intention to here dis
cuss the question as to whether the
best bacon producing animal is the
most profitable one, but to describe as
nearly as practical the essential quail
ties of the best bacon-producer In
such description color is not involved,
but form of the body, texture of flesh,
age and condition are the matters de-
manding careful consideration. AS is
doubtless we'll known, the bacon
pieces are obtained from the sides OF
the carcass of swine and the size and
construction of such pieces are mat
tiers which assist in answering the
conundrum under consideration.
The essentials for the production OF
the best quality of bacon are the rela-
tive proportion Of the fat to the lean
portions, the firmness of the fat por-
tions, and the tenderness of the lean
parts. The lean portion consists OF
the muscles of the body passing along
the sides and belly. These muscles
were not created for the purpose OF
making bacon, but 10 support the belly
