Meat and Grain.

For the successful production Of eggs
at any season Of the year it is necessary
that the hens should have mixed ami
NAL and vegetable diet During the sum-
mer months insects and worms are
abundant, and fowls having a range can
easily supply themselves. with animal
food, but in the winter this necessity
must be supplied if the best results are
to be obtained. Meat scraps and green
bones are the best substitutes and should
be fed at least twice week. When
farmers feed more wheat and less grain,
they will have larger profits from poul-
try. The introduction Of the green bone
cutter also lessons the cost, as cheap
bones and meat can be cut fine and fed
without the necessity Of cooking the
meat
A fair comparison between grain and
meat will show that meat is really
cheaper than grain, because it increases
egg production and also contains less
waste. A grain fed hen appropriates a
large part of it to the storage Of fat,
which is not desirable, while lean meat
is almost entirely heterogeneous The food
which produces no eggs is decidedly the
most expensive to use.

The Blessing of strong Nerves

Is recoverable, not by the use of minreal
sedatives, but by recourse to effectual
tonic treatment. Opiates and the like
should only be used as auxiliaries, and
then "a sparipgly as possible. Vigorous
nerves are quiet ones, and the most d.
rect way to render them 40 is to rein
force the vital energies. That sterling in
vigorant, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
will be found all sufficient for this pur-
pose, since it entirely removes impede
ments to thorough digestion and assimi-
lation of food, so that the body is In
sured its due amout of nourishment and
consequently of stamina. Rheumatic tend
encies and affections of the kidneys and
bladder are also counteracted by the Bit
tiers, which is besides thorough medi-
cinal stimulant, infinitely purer than the
raw excitants of commerce, which react
injuriously upon the nervous system.

young man named Graham was re.
Gently sent on western trip by the invest

had to be away from home for two weeks,
and during the greater part of that time
he was out of doors, roughing it, taking
long rides into the country and tramping
over rough ground. He wore new suit
of clothes when he started on the trip, but
before he arrived at home it was so torn
and soiled that it was practically of no

was sent away on another trip that kept

known as the "old man." This time the

A Bad Sign.

A Welsh county court Judge recently
had before him a case in which printer
sued pork butcher for the value Of a
large parcel Of paper bags with the lat
ter's advertisement printed thereon.
The printer, having no suitable illustra-
ton to embellish the work, thought he
improved the occasion by putting an
elaborate royal arms above the man &
name and address, but ultimately the
latter refused to pay.
The judge, looking over specimen,
observed that for his part he thought
the lion and unicorn were much nicer
than an old fat pig.
"Oh, well" answered the butcher,
perhaps your honor likes to eat ami
mails like that, but my customers don't.
I don't kill lions and uniforms. I only
kill fat pigs. J"

Reflections of q Bachelor.

When man is in love, he can be brutal,
but he can never be selfish.
It's the same feeling that makes man
bet on horse race that makes a woman
go to an auction.
A man is always looking for nicer
brand of smoking tobacco and a woman
for better style of curling iron.
Marriage would be happier if man
were content to consider his engagement
only the prelude and not the whole pro-
gramme.
When woman gets married, she be-
comes either a slave or a slave driver, and
the man she marries can make her either
one.
When woman gets caught in an argu-
ment with man, she says, "Well, it's SO
anyway" When the man gets caught, he
says, "That's just like woman. New
