Susina, Ga.
Sows and pigs running in good bermu-
da pasture and given twice day a mod
crate ration of corn meal made into
slop should make a normal and satisfac-
tory growth. There is some advantage in
thus feeding corn. Experiment has shown
that little or nothing is gained by cook
ing the food
Cotton seed should not be fed to hogs,
though there are numerous instances on
record where boiled or roasted cotton seed
has been fed with apparent advantage.
But we regard the tests made at the
Texas experiment station as conclusive
that cotton seed in any shape is not
proper food for swine. 1t is apt to cause
trouble sooner or later in the majority
of cases. Where peas are fed to hogs it
is desirable to soak them thoroughly but
they need not he cooked.

A Mysterious Mountain.
From the San Francisco Can.

For the last half-century the American
residents of Tucson, Arizona have been
trying to solve a mystery in the shape Of
what appears 10 be q hole through a noun
tain peak in plain sight from the town In
the clear rarcfied air it looks to be only a
short distance away when in reality ii is
at least 40 miles, The earliest residents no
ticed the phenomenon, and the only diff
hculty that lay in the way of finding out
just what it was was the fact that it was
inaccessible, and when they came any
where near the spot the hole disappeared
from sight. In fact, it can only be seen
from within a few miles of Tucson, and
this has led many people to believe that it
IS not hole at ALL
BY the aid of good marine telescope
the mountain can be brought to within a
few miles, but not near enough TO tell the
exact nature Of the rock formation. An

Grape Fruit-Citrus PomeIanus.

Agricultural Editor Morning News. AS
subscriber 10 the Weekly News will you
permit me to ask what Grape fruit is, and
nature of its growth? Is it a vine or
what?
Would you give a description of it in
or not it can be grown here in Michigan.
Detroit, Mich, April %
The Pomelo or Grape fruit belongs to
the orange family. The fruit is much
larger than the orange, but the mem
braneous matter that encases the pulp is
as bitter as quinine This must be care
fully removed, and when it is done a very
edible fruit is left. Many come to like
grape fruit even better than the orange
Another name for this fruit is "Shad-
dock" the result of being introduced into
the West Indies by Capt. shaddock
There are said to be forty odd varieties
of the Shaddock or pomelo. The botani-
cal name is Citrus Pomelanus. 1t makes
a very handsome tree.
Some varieties produce a fruit, single
specimens of which weigh ten, and often
times as high as fifteen pounds. There
is a vast range in the different varieties
but the kind usually found at the fruit
stands is about the size of a cocoanut,
with a pale yellow and smooth skin. The
fruit grows in clusters on the tree, hence
was called grape fruit There is every
reason for its cultivation being greatly
extended, as the taste for it grows on
one, and its medicinal value is consider
able.
This much said, it is not necessary to
add that il is not adapted to Michigan

and desirable to all men, no matter for
what special reason, and so uniformly
and universally acceptable by them
that they will everywhere among these
producers and consumers readily eX-
change for il any item Of property they
wish to exchange, knowing that it will,
willingly and without loss be taken in
exchange for any other item OF proper
ty they may happen to want and When
ever they may happen to want it. That
kind of property for which all other
kinds can be exchanged, which can
buy and sell all others, men call money.
To serve this use most effectively and
economically, it must possess in the
highest attainable degree certain quail
ties; it must have value, real useful
| ness in itself; for men do not willingly
trade valuable for valueless things; it
must keep It's value for a Valueless
thing merely because it once had value;
they must have the present substance
and not the mere tradition OF value; it
must be as invariable in value as pos
slble, that, while it Is kept on hand
awaiting other exchanges, it may lose
as little as possible of its power to buy
other commodities; it must be as near
| ly imperlshable and indestructible as
possible; 1t must have as small bulk as
possible consistent with sufficient
abundance, both for convenience of
handling and for safety and cheapness
of carriage; it must be of "A sort equal
| ~ valuable, equally desirable, equally
acceptable wherever men trade, else it's
purchasing power is not everywhere
equal, and it's function so far fails.
| Wherever men have advanced beyond
| saVagery, they have by custom and
| common use adopted some then aVaila-
BILE form Of property, possessing more
or less of these qualities, as the medium
of their exchanges. SO long as, for any
reason, that form has had a recognized
value and acceptability as wide as the
range of trade of that time, it has serv-
ed it's purpose, even if imperfectly.
When it's acceptability has ceased, or
has has ceased to be commensurate
with the field of trade, it has dropped
out of use. History is full of instances
of disused and abandoned moneys.
Whenever a particular form of prop
erty has served as a medium of ex-
change, 1t has necessarily become a
measure of the value of every item of
property exchanged by its intervention.
| When CoWries were the medium, every
thing else was valued in cowries. 1t
was the same way with sheep, cows,
cloths, hides, punches of shingles, etc.
So that intermediate kind or form of
property. by first exchanging for
which all other kinds of property are
exchanged for each other, is. for the
time being, both a medium of exchange
and measure of value of the things

units like cowries, arrow heads, sheep
or other like sort, the conventional unit

What Money Is

Trade exists before money. Money is
born of the necessities of trade, and is
simply it's instrument. And trade, no
matter how complex it's forms, how
narrow or how wide it's field, what the
range of it's objects or the number or
character of it's instrumentalities and
incidents, is nothing else but the free,
willing exchange of one mans property
for that of another. The fundamental
fact and the everlasting moral element
in such exchanges is this: No man will
ingly exchanges his own valuable COM
modify, his property, except for anoth-
er commodity, another piece of proper
ty, of at least equal value to him. The
whole principle and motive of honest
trade, and the absolute condition of
permanently prosperous trade, is
property for property; substance for
substance; equal value for agreed equal
value. Anything else, no matter how
phrased, is robbery of one or other of
the parties. and is Immediately de-
structive of real commerce, for it eX-
hausts the party who is made to get
less than he is made to give.
But the direct exchange or barter of
scattered commodities by their respec-
tive owners is slow, laborious, costly,
and incOnvenient process. The problem
of trade is to bring the scattered owners
of needed commodities and the scatter
ed consumers of them effectively to-
gether, as seasonably, quickly, and
cheaply as possible. All the manifold
instrumentalities of commerce are
merely devices to that one end. And
the first necessity to that end is some
form and kind of property so useful

The Greenbacks.

The demand notes, or greenbacks, are
maintained at like parity because while
government undertakes to pay either
gold or silver for them, as may be de-
manded, it does in fact pay only gold,
having already borrowed 1892, OO0, 900 of
gold to enable it to keep its pledge.
What the World Demands.
Another dominant factor in the stu.
alton is this: that. as neither our silver
dollars nor our legal tender promises of
dollars go" in the worlds market out
side our own doors, we have to deal
with that world in its own money,
which at the present time is gold.
Whenever, therefore, we have to settle
a balance against us and to send thai
world its money, these legal tender de q.
mand notes. not being available for
that purpose themselves, but being in
circulation and easily obtainable, our
readiest and cheapest way to get the
gold is to take the notes, go to the Uni
ted States treasury, demand the gold
and ship it. AS the treasury cannot
cancel the note which has taken it's
gold, but must reissue and pay it out
again as often as it comes back for
gold, the government becomes, through
this going and coming greenback, the
regular furnisher Of gold for our for
eign commerce and also for those who
have begun to think it worth while to
hoard it against a probable change to
a silver basis.
