An Object Lesson ON Confidence

The scramble of bankers and inyes-
tors yesterday in New York City bonds
affords a striking illustration Of the ex-
tent to which confidence has been re.
stored by the defeat of Organism.
When the bond was offered before
election the bids are very few and 60
low that none could be accepted. Now,
in less than a week after the people
have declared that a dollar is to remain
a dollar, no less than sixteen millions
of bonds are offered-and what hap
pens?
The entire amount is bid for many
times over, and they can be awarded
at prices so high that the city will have
to pay little more than 3 per cent on
the borrowed money. The bonds are
payable in gold, but Notwithstanding
this fact, and despite the high credit of
New York. they could not be sold so
long as there was any fear that the
American people would c%ountenance
a policy of reputation.
BY the force of the present reaction
on every side we can judge of the dan
ger we have escaped.-New York Her

EARLY FATTESINe.
Pork Produced from Corn Alone is Not the
Best Product.

Pork Produced from Corn Alone is Not til,
Best Product.
Corn is not SO exclusively the feed
Oh hogs at any age as 1t used to be.
Instead of growing pigs on their swill
with pasture, and thus stunning their
early growth, 1t is the practice of the
best farmers to begin the high feeding
from birth, keeping the pigs always in
condition for the butcher, and topping
off the last few weeks with a clear
corn diet. Many farmers" according
to American C%ultivator, prefer that
pork for their own use shall not bs
topped off. 1t is sweeter but less firm
in texture, containing more moisture.
This, however, only means that the
pig killed after being fed so as to
waste in cooking is by that fact shown
to be In healthy condition. All ami
mails in perfect health are composed
largely of water. This is evaporated
when internal fevers evaporate the in
ternal moisture, and the meat is then
said to be firm, solid and will waste
little in cooking. Whenever pork of
this kind is not wanted, it should be
fattened with boiled vegetables or fruit
mixed with wheat middlings and bran
to make the right proportion of nitro
genous matter. We have often more
than half fattened hogs on boiled
pumpkins and windtall apples and
never had pork that tasted better than
that thus fattened. Even before we
knew that it was unwholesome, we
never much liked the pork fattened on
corn alone.
ut is well always to select the breed
ing SOW early and give her the especial
kind of feed and a r adapted to pre-
pare her for her mission in life. The
old fashioned practice of some farmers
Of feeding all the pigs together on
corn until nearly fattening time tend
ed always to deterioration. Not but
that the SOW which had fattened least
and had made liberal growth instead of
putting on fat even with this feed was
the SOW out of the lot that was then the
best adapted to breeding, but it was
also the SOW that had shown by it's
failure to fatten when highly fed that
it lacked the especial trait that made a
hog valuable. What is wanted in
breeding sows is the greatest possible
ability to make use of all the food
given, so that the tendency will always
be to an excess of fat, and feed them
that this tendency will be kept in
check and yet so literally as to pro.
mote vigorous growth. This means an
abundant, but not any concentrated,
ration of food adapted to make growth
rather than fat. All the grains are too
.fattening. Wheat middlings and skim
milk diluted with dish washings, with
enough grass in summer or beets in
winter to keep tho pig from ~squealing,
build up a long, rangy SOW that
will produce and better pigs in
half a dozen years of her life than a
farmer can make by any other like
in vestment Of money!
