WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Nc
Bride, of Oregon, has received the following
from F. p. Ash who arrived at Portland on
Nov. 30, direct from Dawson: Il know that

will require the resources of the United
States government to equip an expedition
strong enough to overcome the obstacles of
a midwinter journey. This expedition should

Dover Castle DAMAGED bv Fire.

DOVER, England. Dec. 1.-THE eastern
portion of Dover Castle was Quilted by fire
to-day. The outbreak is supposed to have
been due to an overheated chimney. There
was some difficulty at first in getting wa

the entire garrison was utilized in passing
buckets from hand to hand to fill the tanks
and the supply so obtained proved suffi-

damage was comparatively small and very
much less than was at first expected. The

HOG BREEDING.
Produce tho Animal for Which There 10 n
Demand.

Produce tho Animal for Which There 10 n
Demand.
We are very much interested in sew
eral articles in the June issue OF the
Swineherd, relative TO the causes why
the various breeders were raising their
particular breeds. Each one gave
what they supposed was a good reason
for their action in raising the breed or
the hog for which they believed u de-
mand existed. We were considerably
amused at the ingenious effort made
by p. c. liolme, of Oxford, Ohio, to
convince himself and the readers OF
the Swineherd that the Poland-China
of the market from his own reasoning.
He succeeded in making very good
showing for one of his competitors, the
noted Berkshire hog.
1t must be conceded that the hog
that comes nearest meeting the pres
ent demands of the pork market is the
one, other things being equal, that
should be the most popular hog for
farmers. 1t will be further aclsnowl-
edged that the class of pork hogs most
suitable 20 years ago would not meet
with the same favor to-day. The hog
that grows rapidly and natures early,
and does it ON the least quantity Of
feed, is prolific in its production Of
young, has the choicest quality of lean
meat in ham and Sides is the hog for
which there is the greatest profit to
the raiser.
II u hog requires IA months TO be
produced, even IL it was suitable for
market purposes, would be too expen-
sive to produce, and would, therefore,
not meet the requirements of the rails
Ell. In our estimation the Berkshire
fills the bill in giving n profit TO the
farmers and furnishing the class of
meat demanded. Mr.. Holme shows
that, away back in the Poland China
history, the introduction OF Berkshire
blood was valuable influence in build
ing up the present breed Of Poland
Chinas. In our judgment, it Is neces-
sary to meet the changed demands
with another introduction of Berkshire
blood that would be even more valua-
BILE than the breed.
The Poland-China was bred with a
view to making lard hog. Owing to
the adoption of vegetable oils as sub
stitutes for lard, that character of an.
imal is not in demand. The demand
has drifted away from the lard hog
and meets its requirements in the lean
meat hog, Of which the BERKSHIRE is
the greatest and best AS Mr.. Gentry
says: THE up-to-date lean-meat hog
The Berkshire is just right for the de-
mand. The Poland China will have tc
be re-modeled to meet the present de
mand. While the Poland-Chi is O
greet breed Of hogs and has served
their cause WELL and we have no oh
lection to any breeder commencing
his breed, we believe sincerely that the
Berkshire is bound to make rapid pro.
gress and gain popular favor every
where as the right hog for the present
time. And this is the latest reason fol-
my sticking to the Berlshires. Cor

HE PAYS THE "RlNT."

The Hog rs Factor In Farm Economy,
Although great deal has been said
TO the credit of tn , hog, the topic is by
no means exhausted. lie has long been

tleman that pays the rint," and II we
treated him with more care and con-
sideration we would also find him re-
sponsive to our call for monetary u.s.
sistance, when periodical demands
were made upon u.s. Secretary of Agri-
culture Wilson has said regarding the
hog, that he grows cheapest on the
pasture, and beside the fields that grow
his grain. He is most profitable as a
subordinate department., because he
can not consume the coarse folders of
the farm. He furnishes the best mar
ket in which TO sell the by-products of
the mill and dairy. He assimilates
more OF the most concentrated feed
stuffs than any other animal OF the
farm. Quicker returns come from him
than horses, cattle or sheep. He pays
the rents in European countries, lifts

agricultural people thrive who buy
