The conclusions arrived at were

The CONCLUSIONS arrived at were
The effect of the bone meal and ashes
was to save about 13O pounds of corn, or
% per cent. Of the total amount fed in
producing 90 pounds Of grain, live weight.
By feeding the bone meal the strength
of the thigh bones was doubled.
There was about so per cent. more ash
in the bones of the hogs receiving bone
meal and hardwood ashes than in the
Others
That maize, of itself, cannot build strong
bones, and must be supplemented by ash
materials from other sources, and may be
a cause of pigs becoming too fine and
lacking bone, a common complaint from
the corn feeding sections

Experiments in Hog Feeding.

Weak bones in corn fed pigs has been
made a study at the Wisconsin Expert
ment Station, first, to find out the bone
making properties of maize; next, whether
the deficiency would be made up best by
bone meal or wood ashes
Six pigs were fed on corn meal and
skim milk previous to weaving, and on
corn meal alone afterwards, until 129 days
old, and were then put up two in a pen
together. Each two received only corn
meal as the grain ration, but lot l had
pinch of bone meal in its trough, and lot
had hard wood ashes always at hand in
separate trough while lot 3 get nothing
beyond the meal and rain water All
these had all the salt they could eat.
The experiment was in three trials, be-
ginning September 80 and ending January
20.
The first question was to find the guam
tity of maize required to produce 100
pounds of weight The result of the three
trials was
With maize alone. ............. 629 pounds
Maize and wood ashes. ......... 491 pounds
Maize, with bone meal ......... 487 pounds
The second question, the average break
strength of each thigh bone:
With maize alone .......... 301 pounds
Maize, with wood ashes .. 581 pounds
Maize, with bone meal. $50 pounds
The total ash of thigh bones was
With maize alone............ 1O7 grams
Maize, with wood ashes...... 1902 grams
Maize, with bone meal. . 159 8 grams

Suicide.

Suicide is usually the result of
despair. Some say it is insanity,
some pluck, aud others Insist that
it is cowardice afraid to meet the
issue of life. 1t may be any or all
OF these, but it is certain that no
failure in an attempt at suicide
has been satisfactory either to the
subject or the friends. Everything
goes to show that no mind isration
al that will take its own life. AMI
mails have been known to suicide.
Dependency is disease of a ner-
vous system, though we may notice
60 per cent of all suicides are those
of uubelieYers, 2S per cent insane,
% per cent driyen to a corner be-
cause they dread humiliation, 80 per
cent are females and A males, &C
per cent are unmarried, 70 per
cent are over love affairs, Z per
cent over religion, l9 per cent oyer

PELONR DEAD

There was qnite an assemblage
of neighbors at the Trigg home on
State street yester day to attend
the funeral of "Pelone," a pet dog
belonging to the family.
Pelone was OF Mexican birth, /. e.
he came from Mexico. His former
owner was a tamale man, and
Pelone learned some bad habits
while associating with the tamale
merchants on the plaza at San
Antonio, and .hese habits got him
into many scraps here and was the
cause of his sad end.
He had the habit of prowling
around at night to see what he
could find that was not tied down
with a string, that would do to eat
and it was while on one of these
nocturnal visits to a neighbors
chicken coop, that he was mistaken
for a coon and was fired at by the
owner of the heunery, and his de-
niseIsoon followed.
They dug his grave wide and
deep,
Placing dog fenuel at his head and
feet,
And many were the tears they
did weep
Oyer the grave That did him keep.

lowing advices to the Associated Press

TENDER 3:
1t will be the Territory Of Hawaii"
That is the name which the annexation
committee has decided to recommend
10 Congress. Thus will be preserved
in the political nomenclature OF the
United States the distinctive origin o.
this part of the United States. The
history and tradition Of the Island and
the associations that no resident here
wants forgotten will go In unbroken
union with the name.
The form Of the government will be
modelled on that OF existing territories.
There will be no further departures
from this than local conditions and ma
tional political considerations make ne
cessary.
It is probable that in working out the
details the form OF government Will not
approximate so closely to that OF state
government as the ordinary form OF
Government docs. But the ultimate
possibility Of statehood VIII not be ba=-
red. There will be no district OF Co
lunbia or Alaska form of government
proposed. Hawaii may he divided into
two districts and Molokal, Lanai and
Nyhau may be attached to some other
municipal district.
The question OF territorial legislature
has been fully settled. There will pro-
badly be one, but with limited powers
All the attributes OF sovereignty. how
ever, will be exercised by the natlona-
government OF the United States. The
peopIe of Hawaii will be called on to
consider themselves as Americans, look
ing TO the national government as
source of national power. In local at
fairs they will have the opportunity or
