Fruit For Hngs.

Many orchardists find profit in feed
ing hogs on refuse fruit, and this means
of disposing of it is increasing in ia
vor, as it is found to be profitable.
Much fruit taken to the canneries or
packing houses is rejected because it is
overripe or understood. This is weighed
out and returned to the grower and
converted into pork; this brings
profit to the grower as a by-product
of his orchard. a prominent orchard
list who combines fruit growing and
pork raising claims that prunes are
worth $40 per ton as hog feed, and
that pork fattened on prunes requires
no grain for hardening. Pears and
applies make good feed, but must be
followed with grain in order to harden
the meat. Grapes are very commonly
used as hog feed in poor seasons and
frequently hogs have been turned loose
in the vineyards. Prices for grapes this
season viii not allow this. but it is a
fact that fruit-fed pork, especially that
fattened on grapes, makes the sWents
est meat in the market.

A New and Valuable Feed

Orange Judd Farmer: The pulp
from the beets after the sugar is ex-
tracted, makes an admirable feed for
all stock-horses. cattle, sheep. swine
and poultry. Yet it's value for this
purpose is only beginning to be APP
precfated in this country, though in
Europe the farmers would no more
think of allowing beet pulp to go to
waste than our farmers would think of
using hay for fuel.
At the Utah factory, a feeding COM
pany has contracted for all the pulp
for a series of years, and have erected
adjacent to the factory $50 as to save
all hauling and handling possible) a
complete system of sheds and feeding
pens. Two thousand head of cattle are
fattened here each season for market
They eat the pulp greedily, consuming
from 100 to 125 pounds per head each
day, besides about Is pounds of hay.
These cattle command very good
market, the meat being very Juicy and
tender. The cattle fatten quickly IN
der proper conditions, and as the com
pany gets the pOmace or pulp for
nothing, except the cost of removing It
from the factory, the enterprise is a
profitable one. The past season over
1000 sheep were fattened here on pulp.
AT the WatSonV1le, CAL, factory, l.
700 cattle were fed at the creamery silo,
and beets that fall from the wagons
there are also used as stock feed.
whereas it was formerly necessary to
dump the pulp in the ocean to get rid
of it. Dairymen pay 15c per ton for
having the pulp loaded on cars at fac
tory, and SOC to 81 per ton freight, so
that it costs them 75c to S1.15 per ton,
besides hauling from local depot to
farm: at these terms, they consider
it the cheapest and best food. More
and more of the pulp from the two
sugar factories in Nebraska is utilized
for feeding purposes. Two schemes for
other big factories in Nebraska involve

Ocean Fogs That Are Full OF Fine

People laughed at the man who said
that the fish he had hooked kicked up
such a dust in the water" Perhaps
they will laugh at the heading of this
article, but there will be sea dust never
theless.
We have heard of waterspouts, n
showers of fish, of salt rain and many
other curiosities which present them
selves in the atmosphere, but to assert
that there is such thing as sea dust is
to transcend all reasonable bounds. The
evidence, however; in favor OF its exist
ence is exceedingly observation-disclosures
BILE in fact-and this is the story told by
eye witnesses.
They say that in certain parts of the
world, notably about the Cape de Verde
islands, there are constantly met at sea,
several hundred miles away from land,

blown into the mouth on windy day in
March.
No place is free from it's presence, its
fineness giving it power to penetrate
everywhere. The sea, while the dust is
falling, looks as though it had been pep
pared and is discolored for some dis
lance down. Sometimes the dust comes
in shower and passes off again. The
fogs are nothing but vast quantities of
the dust suspended in the air.
1t is not only in the vicinity of the Cape
de Verde that this wonderful dust is

On top of this is an iron bar, fastened
by a strong spring, from the top of

end. This finger was made to come
in contact with a small brass roller,
over which a sheet of paper was de-

came from a small wood drum, which
was operated by a series of pulleys and
cords, all worked by a crank. This

It must be recalled in reading this
that Southwestern Virginia is
confessedly one of the richest
and most prosperous sections of our
State. 1t is but question of time
how long the business men of Virginia
can stand this strain. If the country
people have no money, the city bust

he cannot make collections he cannot
pay his creditors, and the result is as
sure as any other business proposition
You cannot create money and credit

impression of the gold standard men
during the Presidential campaign.
The present deplorable financial con
dition of the mass of the producing
classes of this country is, or ought to
be, as much out of politics as the
typhoid fever, or cholera, or famine.
Its remedy lies very largely in the
hands of the business men of all par
ties. If they remit it's cure to the gold
spectators, great banking interests

The voice of the true business men of
the land, authoritatively expressed, in

weight with the legislation of the
coming called session of Congress, and

alive action by which it could be

Senator W0lc0tt in England.
9 London Statist says:

"Senator Wolcott. as a matter oil
course, will be we'll received in this
country. He is a gentleman of high
character. He stood apart from the
Jingoism that burst out after the Ven
eZuelan message, and he refused tC
support Mr.. Bryan. But we hope the
Senator will not mistake the consider
alton shown to himself personally for
any sympathy with bimetallism. That
would be a grave error. The British
Bimetallic party contains many esti
mable men, but, outside Lancashire,
it has no political influence. In the
city it's members are looked upon as
mere faddists The fact that Mr.. Bal
four belongs to the party leads many
to think that its political prospects are
brighter than they are. As matter
of fact Mr.. Balfour could not raise the
question IN the Cabinet without max
ing his own seat untenable or break
ing up the Government"
The foregoing shows that England
is single standard country, that no
relief from our financial stringency
will ever be found in that quarter
The United States is indebted to Eng
land in millions, this England wants
paid in gold with no other kind of
money on a par with it. 1t is absolute
folly therefore to talk about "bimet-
talic agreement" and those who nave
held out such hope were deceiving the
people and did it wilfully, and malic-
iously. There has never been a mo-
ment when a bemettalic agreement
was possible, aid there never will be
so long as we owe England dollar.
