A Vexing Question.

Occasionally there appears on our dining
table some two inch cubes about the color of
cigar trimmings. The walters tell us that it
is bread" but though it is certainly good to
eat. as it swallows easy, if it is bread, what
in the Samuel HUI is it made Of? The ques-
ton has divided Equality colony into two
great parties, one claiming that is made of
cedar saw dust, and the other is positive that
it is baked cereal coffee grounds. None but
the cocks can solve the deepening mystery
and they refusing, the bloody chasm widens
between the contending factions.

The Biggest Hog.

The largest hog ever raised was re-
Gently slaughtered in New York. The
animal was Jersey red boar 215 years
old. weighing alive 1909 pounds, and
dressing / 1886 pounds The National
Provisioner has the following to say of
the prodigy: ''This huge swine measur-
ed over feet from tip of its nose to
end of its tail. 1t measures 81 feet
across the loin, 211s feet across the hams
and feet in girth. This makes the hog
feet through. 1t is split at the shout
der, and to look into the great carcass
is like looking into the crevice of a
cavern. The carcass spreads across the
perspective of the store like Titanic
statue of pork personified. 1t also looks
like the body of the great hog god en-
balmed and reposing in its gigantic
majesty. From hip bone to toe it meas
ures 81 feet and about the same from
the crest of the shoulder blade to the bot
tom of the foot. The great fat jowls ex-
tend nearly 2 feet across. From between
the ears TO the tail is over feet The
tail itself is the smallest thing in the
big prop )rtions. 1t is mere point in
the air. The face of the hog is also
small for the size of the animal. 1t is
only is inches long The hams are mon
sters in size. and the vast stretch of
pork in the long waist is borne just
above the ground by four comparative
ly small feet. The usual porker is a
mere pygmy by its side. The biggest hog
heretofore grown weighed 1850 pounds
dead weight. .
