dent Hobart passed favorable night. and
the Improvement that has been observed
for several days continued today. He ate
solid food with relish and IL was promptly
assimilated With his meals he took milk
and between meals was given milk
punches.
This Is a marked change from his condi-
ton ten days ago. At that time he was
rapidly sinking and his stomach had re-
fused food Of all kinds. For several days
he lived on grapes and the juice of grape
fruit but II soon appeared that his s;om-
ach was so congested that he could not
even take these.
Mr.. Hobart now spends most of his time
in a reclining position. and he sleeps with
out the aid of opiates. The most painful
and alarming feature of his illness has been
his attacks OF nervousness as night APP
proaches. These attacks have decreased
Mrs. Hobart, who has spent nearly every
minute of her time during the past .wo
weeks at the bedside OF her husband feels
very much encouraged and has had more
rest than formerly.

The central record. (Lancaster, Ky.) 18??-current, 1899-02-10

A dressed hog is always salable, and
if the price is not right at the time the
pork can always be barreled and sold
at a profit. We have known fOrehand-
ed farmers who, when pork was much
below it's usual paying price, would al
ways put their hog crop into the bar
rels and sell it out by the piece, says
the American CultivatOr. This makes
much better pork than that put up by
the great establishments in the West,
for farmers cut out the ribs when they
barrel side pork, and without the ribs
the pork keeps better. 1t is true, the
incest, sweetest meat on the hog is
close to the ribs and in the tenderlOin.
But there is danger in this lean, ten
der meat, especially when in contact
with the bone, where, as the old saying
is, the meat is always sweetest. In
every case where meat begins to be-
come tainted the first place tOspOil il
close to the ribs, probably because in
packing pork with the ribs there is al.
ways some air i'm the bone and this at.
fectS the meat adjoining it. So in ev
cry locality where pork put up by farm
erS can be had it is generally preferred
to the packed meats from the grocery;
which have been put up with the bone
| in some western city.
