Pigs That Go Down Behind.

Those pigs that "go down behind"
are a puzzle to most swine-breeders,
and the common idea is that they have
kidney worms. This, however, is a
mistake in a majority of cases, for
post-mortem examination has failed to
disclose single worm in the kidneys
of such hogs. The fact Of the matter
Is that these paralyzed pigs are but
the evidence Of improper feeding and
management. Experiments at the
Wisconsin Experiment Station some
years ago proved beyond question that
a sole diet OF corn fails to produce
strong bones in growing pigs, and that
on the contrary such young animals
require mixed ration Of highly nj
trogenous character in order to develop
all Of the organs, tissues and bones
in the most perfect manner. When
pigs are weaned and the corn crop Is
coming into use farmers are too apt
to use 1t as a sole ration for pigs. IL
is so easy and handy to use, and tie
pigs like it so we'll that the temptation
is great, but the price Is paralysis and
the fictitious worm gets the blame.
Mix the rations and give plenty OF ex-
ercise, and these cases will become I'M
common and the quality Of our pork
products will be vastly improved.

Tho Oswald Ration.

The above named ration Is favor
lite one for the feeding Of lambs and
sheep in the west and consists Of
mixture of 2S0 lbs of shelled corn, 60
of faxseed meal, 80 Of oats and 30 Of
wheat screenings. When sheep are put
upon this ration begin with light ra-
vion Of oats mixed with still smaller
per cent of corn until the sheep become
accustomed to the mixture. 1t Is un-
necessary to grind grain for sheep II
their teeth are sound, and 1t does not
pay to grain sheep that have not sound
mouths.
A common error Is made by many
young shepherds in at once placing
fattening sheep upon full feed, with the
result that they are sickened and do
not make the gain expected. The
proper way is to accustom them grad
ually to grain diet, and even one-quar-
ter OF pound of oats or mixture Is
often found to be more than sheep will
at first clean up, whereas after time
they will eat and digest quite large
quantities. 1t may be said in connection
with the above that wheat screenings
and hay without other food are being
largely used for the fattening of sheep
at the large feeding yards of certain
western railroads, as for instance at
La Fox, ILL.,, and Trevor, Wis, and the
sheep apparently thrive well and are
healthy.

Washington Letter to Buffalo Ex-
press: For the first two months OF
the new fiscal year our government has
expended $1O2, 1853 ,OSO.33, OF which $751;
0S6, 469.S1 has gone for the support Of
the civil and miscellaneous establish
ment, and all the rest for military ex-
penses of one kind or another. The
army got $34 1882, OS0.O6; the navy, So
6SS, 245.4O; military pensions, $26,O55,-
674.S0, and interest on the war debt,
SO, 153, S45.3S, a total on the military
side of the ledger Of SIS, 159, S45.64, or
at the rate Of $474, 959, 073.S4 year for
war-like outgoes, while the total cost
of the civil establishment was at the
annual rate of $126,39S, 1886. At the
present time not quite so per cent OF
the expenses of carrying on this peace
full country are on account of wars,
past, present and anticipated, but the
ratio is nearer to 80 per cent than
to any other round figure. Is there
any other country, free or despotic,
which spends larger proportion of Its
income on war? / do not know, be-
cause l have not had the opportunity
to look up the statistics, but l should
be surprised, indeed, to find that any
country Of high civilization, or pre-
tending to high civilization, spends
four times as much on war and war
like preparation as on all it's civil ex-
penses put together. 1t is difficult to
comprehend that, with hardly a reali-
cation of it by the people, we are be-
coming the most warlike of nations,
so far, at least, as outlay on military
matters goes. Moreover, the taxes are
largely taking on a new form. Ihey
are coming home to mems business and
bosoms more closely than heretofore.
The indirect taxes of the tariff, which
have from the beginning of the repub-
lie been the mainstay Of the federal
government, are so no longer. For the
first two months Of the new fiscal year
the receipts from the tariff were $751;
S,151.53, while the receipts from the
indirect taxes Of the internal revenue
were $50 $50, 613.s6.

In recent report to the Australian
government on Preventive Inocula-
ton Against Tick Fever" by Frank
Tidswell, chief assistant medical officer
of the government, in speaking of ami
mails that possess natural immunity,
he says:
1T must be admitted that some
doubt exists in the case Of sheep. The
American observers came to the con-
custom that sheep were not susceptible,
but they only report one experiment
in which blood was injected into
lamb. BY similar experiments on two
sheep in Queensland DR.. Hunt set up
fever in both. One recovered and one
was killed in a dying state. Post
norton examination did not reveal the
characteristic lesion Of tick fever, and
the examination for heterogeneous
was indefinite. The blood from one OF
the sheep injected into bullock pro-
duced no well-marked disease The
evidence is, perhaps, no more than sus-
picious, but it is possible that tick
fever, like tuberculosis, occasionally
occurs in sheep. AS DR.. Hunt remarks,
the subject merits further study

In killing poultry all unnecessary
cruelty should be avoided. One would
think such advice to be without
cause, but it is fact that the modern
way of bleeding the fowls to death
through the mouth and picking them
while they are dying is cruel and
should be abandoned. P. H. Jacobs
says that blow on the head will rem
der the bird unconscious and that the
bleeding will not thereby be interfered
with.
II the hen gets lame and continues
so it is generally better to SEND ner to
the kettle. 1t has been the experience
of many that lame fowl stands round
so much that she gets fat and stops
laying. The queer thing is that she
will be found to have no signs OF eggs
in her. This scans to be due to the
fact that the fat has increased to sucn
an extent that he formation of even
embryonic eggs is discontinued. why
a fat fowl should stop forming eggs 1t
is difficult to say, but it is a fact.
Now that the cooler weather of fall

Markets for Dairy Products.

Secretary Wilson Of the department
of agriculture is reported as saying;
1.-THE people in the Mississippi val
ley are alive to the new markets in
the Pacific for their products. That
we may be doing something along this
line the agricultural department has
sent an agent to China to establish
agencies for the sale of our dairy prod
ucts. We find that this Puget Sound
section imports dairy products from
the Mississippi valley. One object OF
my present visit, therefore, is to en-
courage your dairymen to prepare
not only to supply their market, but
the greater market which is opening
up in the Pacific. Good butter, neatly
timed, brings thirty to forty cents a
pound over there. We of the Missis-
sippi valley have concluded that a
great change is coming. Our great
markets will be to the west rather
than to the east"
