BETTER BACON.

So far as we can learn from the frag-
ments extant and the limited descrip-
lions of the eighteenth century pig,
says the Mark Lane Express Almanac,
1t must have been very similar in form
and character to the American rail
splitter, which is said to be capable of
passing with ease through the lodges
of an ordinary gate or rail fence by
merely turning itself half over and ne
gotiating the obstacle sideways, or, as
in some districts. it was of that coarse,
heavy boned, ungainly form with
which some of the older of your read
ers who have Travelled in the Fen and
some other districts may be familiar.
The greyhound type was as equally
well suited for the performance of
those scavenging duties which extend
ed to the removal of various inodorous
morsels which our careless forefathers
allowed to collect in the larger villages
or even towns as for the raiding of
henrooSts and the conversion into pork
of varying quality of the enormous
quantities of acorns, beech masts, etc,
which were to be found in the numer-
GUS forests, woods and uninclosed
grounds which were private or public
property. The increase of population,
the necessary sanitary regulations and
the Enclosure of these vast areas of
woodland depri red the greyhound pig
of its raison d'etre. The taste for meat
somewhat more toothsome if slightly
less sayory than the three or four year
old pork furnished by the gaunt deni-
zens of the forest, combined with the
necessity for a less expensive meat
making machine, when the materials
for It's production had to be purchased
or grown, led our forefathers to seek
to improve the original pig.
During the first quarter of the cen
fury, when farmers were struggling
through a course of agricultural de-
preston quite as severe if not so long
continued as the present generation of
agrIculturists have experienced the
pig of the period appears to have re-

RECENT INVENTIONS.

Doors can be rigidly held in any posi-
ton by new clamp having a spring con-
trolled piston, the upper end of which has
a head inserted in a semicircular slot,
which will hold the piston in either a
raised or lowered position.
An improved tobacco pipe has a plug
inserted in the front of the bowl which
can be removed for cleaning, with the
bottom of the bowl formed of plastic ma
terial to take up the nicotine, the filling
being removed when saturated.
A westerner has patented horse
hitching device to be carried by the wag-
on, rod being attached to the axle near
one wheel, with a hook for the reins. a
device on the wheel catching the rod and
pulling on the reins when the horse starts
up.
For use in cleaning pavements a Ger
man has patented flexible brush which
is semicircular in shape, the center being
formed of flexible shaft, around which
the bristles are inserted, the curvature of
the brush rolling the dirt toward the CEN
ter.

AN EDITORS APOLOGY.
A Happy inspiration That Proved to
BE a HnOme rnnir

A Happy Inspiration That Proved TO
Be boomerang.
The editor of small provincial pa
per in Austria was in great difficulty
to find fit subject for his leading arti-
Gle, having been too intent upon other
business or upon pleasure TO provide
one. The last moment had come and
his brain In vain. when he suddenly
was inspired by happy thought and
dashed off the lines:
after carefully perusing the leading
article written for the present number
by one of the ablest of our contribu-
tors, we have arrived at the conclusion
that it may be misinterpreted by the
authorities and regarded as an attack
upon the government. We ourselves
consider it to be perfectly innocent
but. as we are unwilling. for our read
ers' sake as we'll as for our own. tC
have our newspaper confscated. we
have very unwillingly. though. as we
think. prudently resolved to Withdraw
the article This must serve as the
apology to our readers for the blank
space in our present issue"
The journal was published in the
evening. and the sly editor. after per
forming this little piece of stratagem
left the office in high humor AS soor
as he arrived in the office the next
morning clerk came up to him with
a doleful expression and said. Herr
Redaktor, the paper is confscated by
the police!'' For what reasony' ask
ed the astonished editor For mali
cious ridicule of the institutions of the
Austrian empire by the omission of the
leading article" replied the man

trograded rather than improved in
quality. The coarse, ungainly pig was
general then. At later period the
Chinese and the Neapolitan pigs were
introduced and taken up so keenly 10y
fanciers and more wealthy landowners
and farmers that soon after the mid
die Of the century our pigs had not
only lost that extreme size and coarse
ness whose loss was a gain. but the
improvement was too great. and that
a certain amount of size and quick
growth, both desirable and necessary.
had, like the lean meat in the pigs
been lost. The fashionable pigs of that
day had become mere animated blad
ders of lard, very pretty to look upon
when their curly hair had been wash
ed and boiled, but of no practical use
but for the furnishing of fat with
which to fry fish. This craze for short
shouted, fat backed, obese specimens
of the porcine world was increased by
our American cousins. who perhaps
saw in them so marked a difference to
the pigs In the States that they desired
to possess something so totally dissim-
liar to the pigs belonging to their
friends and neighbors. To such a
pitch had this fancy for rolly poly pigs
attained that the complaints of our
curers of hams and bacon were both
loud and deep. Fat sailed pork and
lard could be produced in the States at
about half the cost of manufacture in
England, so that only the longer and
leaner of the English fat pigs could be
converted at a profit by our home ba-
con curers. who, further could not OBJ
tain a supply of the raw material to
keep their plant at work. German and
subsequently Swedish and Danish ba-
con curers began to compete with our
own curers, to be followed by large i'm
portations of Canadian bacon to such
an extent that self preservation drove
the English curers to devise some
means of calling the attention of our
pig breeders TO the folly of producing
pigs which would realize but a second
or third rate price on the market and
to the fact that a continuance Of such
a suicidal system must eventually drive
our bacon curers ont of the market and
give to foreigners the monopoly of sup
plying our markets with exactly that
class of pork products which is most
profitable to manufacture.
One or two breeders Of repute took
advantage Of the opportunity and pro-
duced pure bred pigs of the bacon type
and succeeded to such an extent in
combining length and depth Of frame
with a large proportion of lean meat
that a marked change soon became no
ticeable in the country pigs in many
districts, and our British bacon became
consequently first class. Our foreign
rivals, noticing this improvement in
the pigs O certain breed. speedily
awaited themselves of the opportunity
to purchase large numbers from the
original breeders. so that now our as
cendancy in the bacon trade is again
being challenged, and it win behoove
us to look well to our laurels, or we
shall find both the Danes ana Cana
dams taking a considerable portion of
our best trade.

oIeomnrcnrine Sales.

Recent frequent convictions of per
sons in New York state found with
oleomargarine in their possession are
taken to indicate that traffic in that
commodity continues In the face of the
laws of the state board of agriculture.
Some idea of the extent of the oleo-
margarine trade may be gained from the
statistics just published at Washing
ton, which give the quantity made and
sold during the fiscal year ending July
l, so, 495, 628 pounds, an increase of 25,-
106.901 pounds over the previous year,
This is in spite of the fact that the
''anticolor" law exists in 81 states. 1t
is on the point of color that the legality
of oleomargarine sale hangs. In its
natural state, that of a pearly white,
there is no law against It,

GUERNSEY MILKERS]
) SOME OF THE CHARACTERIS-
TICS OF THE POPULAR
Z DAIRY BREED.

Some idea of the popularity of the
Guernsey may be gathered from the
fact that there are now registered 49,
300 Guernseys, one-third of which num-
Der has been added since 1895, since
the time when the cattle attracted gen
eral attention at the Chicago fair The
half and three-quarter blood heifers
and cows sell readily at from $50 to
SIS, and the demand is greater than
the supply.
Although the variety bears the name
of the island of Guernsey in this coun-
try. says the New York Tribune, it is
called the Attorney breed in its native
country The name Alderney has been
given indiscriminately to any of the
cattle of the Channel islands. to both
Jerseys and Guernseys. A writer on
the subject says that the Guernsey has
little or none of the peculiar deerlike
style and expression that characterize
the Jersey They are coarser in bone,

With persistent mixers there is sell
dom difficulty If alfalfa only is fed for
a time. If a COW continues to give
milk under this treatment or If the
udder is hard and feverish, the work
of drying up must stop and the ration
be changed to light milk ration, with
loosening feeds, and the COW MIXED
regularly. Forced drying up under
these conditions Injuries the COW. If
by oversight the drying up process has
been neglected until within three or
four weeks of calying, do not attempt
it, as there is risk of injury to the

Doylestown has four odd characters
who pool their issues In buying shoes
They all have the same sized foot. and
each regards this fact in the nature of

them in such quantities there is nafu.

think that there would be an equal di-
vision of the Shoes but that isn't their
little game.
The shoes are owned collectively.
share and share alike and when not
being worn they are kept in closet in
the express office. which is the general
lounging place of the quartet If one
man wants to wear new shoes. he goes
to the express office and puts them on.

wants to wear patent feathers in the
