Feeding Hogs.

One of the cheapest and best rations
which can be used in connection with
corn in fattening hogs is wheat bran and
oil meal made into slop with skim milk
Feed the slop first and freely, and then
what corn they will eat up and clean
When oil meal can not be procured
conveniently use middlings of mill
screenings, ground fine. They can
generally be had at small cost at this
time of the year and will help make up
a good variety, and better results can be
procured than with corn only.
Milk as food for pigs has feeding
value far beyond its actual food eleme-
ments, given in the proper combina-
ton with other rations, but it is waste
to raise them exclusively upon it, No
matter how plentiful it may be- Mid
dlings and green stuff should be fed with
it, so that double the number of pigs
may be kept with the same milk. In
this way only can its value be turned
to the best account.
Whey is not a fit food for growing pigs,
but is excellent when properly balanced
with heterogeneous foods. The Younger
the pigs the more profit is there in feed
ing them, for it costs twice as much to
put a pound of gain on a pig one year
old as it does to make the same increase
in one six months old. The more rapid
y forced from the start the greater will
be the profit
Especially upon prairie farms is corn
ed to hogs in large quantities, and there
lard wood ashes are wholly unknown;
yet upon these very farms is the greater
iced of ash materials for aiding and
building up the bone of the hogs. Corn
obs furnish very strong ash, and these
hould be burned and carefully fed
The old way was to keep the hog on
ght rations until year old, then pas
are one summer, and begin to fatten at
xteen months. Now we have the
oring pigs ready to bring the top price
November or December. and where
ilk can be had to give them a good
art, weight of 200 pounds is attained
the age of six months.

Glanced sparkling of her golden hair.

And look of contentment rested there.

Where is Home?
BYM. C.

Home is where affection binds
Gentle hearts in union;
Where the voices all are kind,
Holding sweet communion
Home is where the hearts can rest
Safe from darkening sorrow;
Where the friends we love the best
Brighten every morrow
Home is where the friends that love
To our hearts are given;
Where the blessings from above
Make it seem heavenl
Home is where the stars will shine
In the skies above us;
Peeping brightly through the vine
Trained by those who love u.s.
Yes, it's home where smiles of cheer
Wreathe the brows that greet us;
And the one of all most dear
Ever comes to meet us!

The Value of Set of Farm Scales.

Most farmers realize TO certain ex.
tent the value OF a set of farm scales
But few men seem 20 think the value
equal to their original cost. In many
instances they have more than paid for
themselves the frs, year
A farmer in Illinois sold seventy hogs
toa shipper Before delivering they
were weighed upon the farmers scales.
When weighed upon the buyers scales
there was discrepancy OF over I,soo
pounds After investigation it was
found a l,ooo-peund weight had not been
counted, which would have amounted to
5000 "a, Ss.Ss per cwt. the selling
price,. and would have been lost but for
the previous weighing.
Another farmer sold five cows to
local butcher at cents per poued,
guessing their average weight to be 900
pound. When delivering them
neighbor induced him to weigh them On
his scales. Their average weight was
found to be 1000 pounds. loss Of 100
pounds 70 each COW. or loss of $40. 90

Tramps Boxed Up.

For some time past the Reading r. r..
freight cars have been broken into by
tramps who wanted to steal a ride or
help themselves TO the contents of the
cars. A strict watch has been kept
of late and on Saturday evening a box
car was found to contain gang of the
hobos. who were seen to pry open the
door and enter. Special officer George
Senft, of Egg Harbor City, was tele-
graphed for and came here on the down
train, closed the door and fastened it.,
and run the whole layout into Atlantic
City The tramps Were conveyed to the
city Jail and on Monday morning were
brought before Recorder Ingersoll. They
were tough looking crowd, and gave
their names as follows: Minus Quinn,
of R. L. frederick Mcclure, of N. Y; John
Davis, John Dougherty, Arthur Lennis,
VIM. Slavin and James Craig, of Phila-
delphia. When they were searched razors
and knives were found in their posses
sion.
After hearing the statements OF the
prisoners and carefully weighing the
evidence the justice held five of them in
$500 bail and two in 500 for their ap-
pearance at the September term Ofcourt.
The latter furnished the bail and were re-
leased and the others We're taken to
Mays Landing where they will likely
spend the summer.

The Tramp Nuisance.

Pleasantville is being overrun with an
army of tramps, and it is high tine that
the Borough authorities took the matter
in hand and rid the community OF their
presence. Pleasantville is not only SUBJ
iect to it's share of the ''hobo" army, but
it is also obliged 10 be annoyed with the
large swarm that is driven away from
Atlantic City. Over there they are not
tolerated an hour, but are escorted to
the drawbridge and told to 'git'' The
only road leading off shore are the turn
pike and the two railroad tracks. Over
these the poor creatures come always
hungry and tired, and sometimes insol-
ent. Not one out of twenty of them
want work or would accept it at
fair wages. The most Of them are
"bums" and regular tramps who go
wherever they are tolerated. and stay
until driven out. There should be plenty
of law to rid the place of this growing
nuisance. If there isn't the Borough
Council should lose no time in enacting
some.
