PASTURE FoR PIGS.


Results of Careful Experiments Extend.
ing Over Four Years
Exercise, good air and sunshine play
much greater part N pig raising than
most people commonly suppose. 1t is
for this reason that the western prac-
tice of relying quite largely on grazing
for the nourishment OF swine is SO sue
cessful-
This has never been 50 clearly demon
strated as by a series Of pig feeding
tests extending over four years, made
by Mr.. A. A. Mills, OF Utah We give
the results below:
/. Pigs allowed to run at large over
IS acres of good pasture and fed full
ration of grain made the most rapid
growth and required the least grain for
one pound of gain
2. Pigs confined In movable pens in
the pasture grew more slowly than
those running loose, and required an
increase of 20 per cent of grain to make
one pound of growth
g. Pigs at pasture, fed under three
different conditions, gained 9245 cent
more and ate but two per cent more
than the pigs getting grass and other
wise similarly fed, but confined in pens
The grain required 10 produce one
pound of gain was increased 40 per cent.
with those IN pens over those in pas
ture.
4. Pigs fed but part rations Of grain
at pasture made satisfactory gains.
Those at pasture getting the three
fourths grain ration gained more than
those fed full grain ration and grass,
either in the yard or IN the pens.
5. Pigs pastured without grain made
about the same growth for three sea-
sons in succession, this averaging Sc
of a pound day.
6. As nearly as can be judged, exer-
else alone increased the gain p per
cent, and the amount eaten but Is per
cent. but decreased the amount re-
CURED for one pound gain % per cent.
Z. Grass when cut and fed green to
pigs, whether fed in pens or yards. or
with full or part grain rations, or with
out grain, proved TO be Of very little
value.
s. Pigs confined In pens and fed on
grass alone, mostly lucerne, for 81 days,
lost over a quarter of pound per day.
9. The average of the pigs fed On
grass gained a little mor> than those
without the grass, but not enough TO
pay for the extra feed in the grass.
10. With the pigs confined IN the hog
house pens. the grass proved beneficial,
while with those IN the yard it proved
detrimental, the latter requiring more
grain to make pound Of pork with
the grass than without IL
IL Pasturing either with full OF
with part grain rations appeared to be
by far the cheapest and best way OF
making pork.

our modern methods OF intensive farm

IN Burke county, n c., about eight

was to build church and schoolhouse.
Recently they have showed consider

mill, in which most of the young people
are employed The property of the col
onists consists of several thousand
acres. This has been divided into small
farms, each family receiving from 50 TO
60 acres. At the same time each house
holder is obliged to assume his share
of the debt which the colony still owes.

LEVI P. MORTON.

There are so many good men candi- dates for the presidency that it seems hardly possible for the St. Louis con- vention to go astray. Any of the men mentioned would make good presi dent and a strong leader for his party.
 But the man who is forging to the front more rapidly now than any of the others is Levi P. Morton, of New York. As vice-president and as gov ernor of New York MT. Mcrton's eX- ecutive ability has won for him many friends who are now active in pushing his claims for the presidency.
 Mir. Morton is a loyal American, a conservative and safe business man, in ardent sympathy with Republican principles, and one of the ablest men in the Nation. ...--.. ~.--s --..-.......
 Whether he will be the nominee or not is, of course, matter that cannot now be predicted. But one thing is certain, MT. Morton has the backing of the most sagacious political workers in the country and his chances for sue cess are even with Reed or Mckinley who had the field to themselves azfeW months ago. And should MT. Morton draw the prize ats,St, Louis he will make a president of which the whole country may justly be proud.

HARRIsoN's PREDICAMENT.

As a presidential aspirant, recent events seem to have placed "the man from Indiana" between the devil and the deep sea. His thirty rooms at St. Louis will hardly be needed unless he uses them as bridal chambers. His family, it seems, not only refuse to consent to his marriagewith the niece of his deceased wife, but decline to speak to or =countenance the lady. This, it is alleged, shot because of any general objection held by them ito the contracting of a second marriage by their father, but because his mar riage to Mrs. Dimmick will be consid- cred as an act tof disrespect to the memory of the former Mrs. Harrison.
 It seems that Mrs. Dimmick's pres ence in the White House and infiu- ence over President Harrison was ob- noxious to the first Mrs Harrison, who after several abortive appeals to the lady to leave the presidential mansion, and to the president to exclude her, was only prevented from precipitating an open rupture through dread of a White House scandal" The matter was finally adjusted during the last illness of Mrs. Harrison by the presi- dent giving her a pledge that on the event of her death he would not marry her niece.
 This deathbed promise the infat- uated ex-president is about to place on pie crust basis, and hence the re- fusal of Russell Harrison and Mrs. Mckee to speak to their step-mother- elect

in conscious pride, and leaning back in his chair said:
 with regard to our carnival, we in- tend to give an affair that has never before been excelled. As Artemus Ward says, 'Ekalled by few, xcelled by nun We have invited Los Angeles people, and they have kindly accepted the invitation. We are buying all sup plies from this city and the railroads. both Santa Fe and Southern Pacific, have met us very handsomely in the matter, and intend to run excursions at a very cheap rate. We intend to have procession that no other city in the United States could possibly equal. There will be over 800 nearly naked Indians, Mojaves, Apaches, Mar icopas, Pimas and all the other tribes. The entire garrison at Fort Whipple is coming down with a regimental band. ~.r
 Cowboys from every part of the ter ritory will swarm there by hundreds. A drilled Indian school with Indian bands, and over 400 pupils will line up. We have 250 bicyclists signed to ride in the procession and hundreds of other novelties; besides, the floats which will be magnificent from present promises. I have just completed a contract for fireworks running into thousands of dollars. We buy all that class of thing here, finding ourselves better suited than in San Francisco. All our citizens come here to spend the summer, and, taking it all in all, the two cities are well known to each other. We shall give, large prizes for bicycle racing, football, tennis, base ball, cricket, etc.

THE FISTIC CARNIVAL.
Preparations Made to Receive 10000
 People

Ell Paso Times: El Paso has made preparations to accommodate 10000 people, as we expect fully that many to be there The state of Texas alone, judging from letters and reports of our agents, will send almost 15,000 sports. California, Colorado and the west will send big consignmentS, and trains are already being made up in the east and in Mexico.
 In addition to the fistic attractions, we will have the best bull fighters from Spain and Mexico to entertain the crowd An effort will also be made to get Col. Bob Ingersoll who is now featuring in Texas, to speak in the opera house at El Paso during the carnival. We want to do all in our power to give the attending sports a run for their money
 A peculiar question is noW puzzling MT. Stuart The Mexican ladies, as you know, all attend the bull fights, and now their husbands are sending in applications for tickets for them selves and their wives. The whole thing is such a novelty to them that they cannot see any difference between the propriety of their attendance upon 8 prize-fght~
 When MT Stuart informed some of them that it was not generally consid- cred the proper thing for ladies to at tend prize-f1ght, the men replied that they could not appreciate the dis tinction between a prize-fight and a bull fight, but if such was the case then what was not good enough for their wives and daughters was not good enough for them.
 The result is that Stuart is on the fence. The Mexican attendance means whole lot of money to him, and he cannot afford to lose it. He is con- ferring now with his associates, and I expect that in all probability the la- dies will be admitted.

CLOTHES MADE OF WOOD.
One of the Things Which the Future Will
 Probably Bring Forth.

Time was when references to wooden overcoat" were understood as the irreverent equivalent of measuring a'man for coffin, but it would seem that suits of clothes made of wood may soon be an accomplished fact.
 The writer, says the Edinburgh Scotsman, is indebted to a merchant of the city of cloth-Leeds-for a glimpse of samples of species of cloth, and also of sort of cotton, made wholly out of wood fiber, these two woven pieces having all the appear ance of attractive articles of their OWE kind. Both these novel textile fabrics are the result of prolonged expert ments with pinewood and spruce, which have been ingeniously torn to pieces in the first instance and then bleached by an elaborate chemical process.
