The financial success of feeding pigs for
the home market depends on the timely
closing up of the operation. To go beyond
100 to $50 pounds live weight doesn't pay.

Fifty years ago the government issued
it's first agriculturist report. There was
no agricultural department, and the agri-
cultural interests Of the country were
consigned to the patent Office. In the first
report, published in lS49, a gentleman
from Iowa contributed an article on tho
best breed of oxen to raise, for work pur-
poses, and that was all Iowa had to say.
There are about fifty different kinds of
insects that attack garden crops, while
nearly 200 kinds attack the vineyards and
orchards. Different species are attracted
to the plants suited to the wants of their
offspring and are sometimes repealed by
OdOrs which, to them, indicate danger.

contain small proportion of crude car
bolic acid, which will add to it's efficiency

THE RIGHT THING.
A New Catarrh Cure, Which is Rap
idly Coming to the Front.

idly Coming to the Front.
For several years, Eucalyptol,
Guaiacol and Hydrastin have been
recognized as standard remedies
for catarrhal troubles, but they
have always been given separately,
and only very recently an inge-
NOUS chemist succeeded in COM
bining them, together with sother
a~ntiseptios, into a pleasant, efec-
tive tablet.
Druggists sell the remedy under
the name of Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets, and it has met with remark
able success in the cure of nasal ca
tarrh, bronchial and throat catarrh
and in catarrh of the stomach.
Mr.. F. N. Benton. whose address
is care of Clark House, Troy. n.
Y, says: When L run up against
anything that is good / like to tell
people of it. / have been troubled
with catarrh more or less for some
time. Last winter more than ever.
Tried several so-ealled cures, but
did not get any benefit from them.
~ADOUS SiA MCCAS dSO 4 uouSAt a oV-
cent box of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
and | am glad to say that they have
done wonders for me. and | do not
hesitate TO let all my friends know
that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are
the right thing"
Mr.. Geo. ]. Casanova, of Hotel
Chiffon, West Ninth street, New
York City, writes: / have COM
menced using Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets, and already they have given
me better results than any catarrh
cure l have ever tried.
A leading physician OF Pittsburg
advises the use of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets in preference to any other
treatment for catarrh of the head,
throat or stomach.
He claims that they are far SUI
perior TO inhalers, s~alves, lotions
or powders, and are much more
convenient and pleasant to take,
and are so harmless that little
children take them with benefit,
as they contain no opiate, cocaine
or any poisonous drug.
All druggists sell Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets at so cents for full
sized package, and they are prob
ably the safest and most reliable
cure for any form of catarrh,

The influence Of the National Stogie
| Makers League is making itself felt.
The organization had its inception IN
Wheeling, and w. H. Riley, of this city,
is the national president. Garfield AS
sembly, K. of L., was really the nucleus
of the organization, which now has
branches wherever the industry is car
ried on extensively.
The members of Twin City local of
Pitsburg and Allegheny have notified
their employers of z demand for an ad-
vance in wages, to take effect October
22nd, the alternative being a strike.
The increase asked is rs cents a thous-
and, or about 10 per cent, and
about seven hundred men will lie
affected n Pittsburg. Several in
dividual manufacturers have al
ready indicated their willingness to pay
the advance, and it is believed that the
stogie makers will get their demands
without a strike.
A Pittsburg paper, in discussing the
situation, says:
They have several good points to
support their arguments. The first is
that wages in Pittsburg are about 20
per cent. lower than in Wheeling, and
that they only ask for an increase of
half of that amount. Another point is
that Cleveland, Cincinnati, Muncie,
Ind, Grafton and Wellsburg, w. Va,
Marietta, O., New Castle, Uniontown and
Clarion all pay what Pitsburg now asks.
Canton, o., is willing to pay it, and has
asked for the label. Another strong ar
gument is that two years ago, when
1.-THE revenue was raised go cents a thous-
and, nearly all the manufactures In
creased the price 81 a thousand, and
wages remained the same.
Another strong point in the argyll
ment of the men is that the stock now
used is harder to work on account of it
being finer leaf, and as a result more
care has to be taken with it. Some OF
the leaders say they do not believe that
there will be a strike, but that the man
ufacturers will see the justice in the
asked-for increase, and grant 1t at once.
The men are prepared for a long fight,
however. The local league has some
money, and every man in the Wheel
ing district is pledged to give a portion
of his a to assist the men who may
be out in Pittsburg. Tarentum, Leech-
| burg and East Liverpool, O., will make
a demand for the advance.
THE largest shop in Pittsburg en-
| ploys 100 hands. Other shops have
from a half dozen up.
There was a mass meeting of stogle
makers last night at their hall, corner
of Fifth avenue and Market street. The
meeting was addressed by the national
officers, nearly all of whom were pres
ent. The national officers are: w. H.
Riley, president, Wheeling; James Nc
Laughlin, vice president, Pittsburg; F.
| D. Thomas, secretary, Wheeling; Will
liam Wagner, treasurer, Wheeling. The
| president, secretary and treasurer and
