THE PIG OF THE FUTURE.

1t is pleasing to note that Our en-
terprising and diligent Department of
Agricultural has set itself to work to
ascertain if the ordinary habits of the
American pig can be improved, or if
he has any latent ambition for high
er and clean1ier state. The Govern
ment purposes raising litter of suck
lings on sand floor. They will be
bathed at due intervals, fed with
certain amount of delicacy and for
whole year will be kept in condi-
ton of responsibility. After this
these well-educated pigs will be intro
duced to an ordinary pig pen to ascer-
tain if they will forsake their manners
and elect mud for pleasure and the
trough for gourmandizing. It is to
be hoped these pigs will yearn to stay
in the clean and wholesome yard of
their babyhood.
It must be said that the commonly
supposed natural habits of the pig
are merely artificial or acquired. They
have been forced upon him or have
not been of his own seeking. How
matters stand now we cannot say, but
there was a time when the writer
knew the life of the pig was not alto
gether happy one. In summer time
he skirmished for himself, getting the
dishwater and kitchen refuse daily
and some milk on churning day.
He developed into razor-backed va
riety, with a nose that could reach
through a fence and root potatoes
from the third row. IF he was pen
ned up it was in an ill-kept place,
where he was squealing half the time
for something to eat or drink. The
wild pig or the natural pig is not un-
clean. 1t is dirty when kept in pen
because it cannot be otherwise. If
afflicted with flies or vermin it must
seek the mud puddle. When left at
large, with sufficient provender, swine
do not naturally seek filth and slime.
When free to roam in the woods they
are no more unclean than cattle. So
the Government experiment will re-
suit, probably, in notifying a great
number of mistaken farmers that mud
is not necessary to the existence of
swine. 1t is a pity that farmers
should labor under this mistake, for
it induces them to keep disease breed
ing nuisances about their homes, and
it must be that the quality of pork
deteriorates under such feeding and
keeping as are the lot of the usual pig.
Human beings could not endure it to
live in filth and fatten on garbage,
and Europe does what it should when
it puts high duty on meat that
comes from a missused animal. Do
away with the pig sty as it is ordina-
rily seen and formerly common. No
more profitable animal at present can
be raised than the pig. Some farm
ers know this and act accordingly.
They do not let their pigs take pot
luck or accidental feed till the fatten-
ing time comes, but give them
chance to be clean and decent and
never allow them to squeal for whole
some food. d.-Laneaskev pa. Exam

THE HORSE DID IT.

One of the recent graduates of West
Point tells this story:
| fell in with an old army officer
after the exercises. He looked ME
over and asked me good many ques-
tons. Among others he asked how
! came to be appointed, and I told
him that it came about in the usual
way.
A recommendation does not ne
cessarily mean merit, he said.
/ assented to this.
81 do not think that passing an
examination always means merit, he
added as crusher.
/ said I supposed not. l had re-
solved that I would not violate any
Of the rules by getting into an argu-
ment with an old regular, now on
the retired list.
=" I know a young man who got
here" he continued, ''just after the
civil war, because he was mentioned
by the commanding officer in an en-
gagemet, for bravery, and the
youngster never intended to be brave
he did it because he did not know
what he was doing, or because he
could not help it. He is dead now,
and I do mind telling you about it.
"He vas at headquarters in the
army of tie Potomac, and, as he was
good sor. of fellow, he got in with
general Of one of the divisions who
lived prettyhigh. He and this young
man went On bat on one occasion.
Not to speak disrespectfully of the
dead, the young man got as drunk as
sailor on shore leave.
While he was in that condition
the division got orders to go to the
front and this young fool was put in
the saddle and told to go in the other
direction. But the engagement came
on quickly and the horse on which he
sat, being like Jobs war charger,
smelled the battle and turning, dash
ed into the thick of the fight.
"'The young fool who rode him
had just enough sense to hang on and
the horse plunged and neighed into
the fray. 1t was miracle that horse
and rider came out of it alive.
"'The commander of the division
witnessed what / related, and in his
report to Grant he made special men-
ton of the daring of the fellow. The
result was that the fellow was ap-
pointed cadet. He was a graduate,
I believe, of the Missouri university
before he went into the army, so he
was able to pass here.
"'But what I want to impress upon
you, young man, is this. If this fell
low had not been drunk he would
have kept his horse from being so
reckless. And in that case he might
not have been mentioned for bravery,
and, consequently, he would not have
been appointed cadet.
He was good fellow-peace to
his sou1-but he owed his education
by the government to his horse.
And to getting drunk, I added.
Well, said the old regular, you
know what Lincoln said, when some
body told him Grant got drunk.
"And with that he turned away,
evidently satisfied with his lecture" "

bold, feminine hand, were registered
"Mrs. Archibald Giddings, child and
maid" Archibald Giddings' pres
ence of mind did not forsake him
he signed the register, "Amos Grid
ley" and hurriedly left the cabin.
He must make the best of it, and,
at all events, his identity need not be
discovered. 1t was really quite a
piece of good fortune; he could meet
and study his wife without being
known. The child puzzled him.
The maid called him 'Archie :" he
was fine little fellow, about 3 years
old; presumably Mrs. Giddings had
adopted him, This appealed to Mr..
Giddings as piece of good judg-
ment.
At breakfast "Amos Gridley" and
Mrs. Giddings were introduced and
also Miss Eunice and Master Archi-
bald. It suddenly occurred to Archi-
bald Giddings (alias Gridley) that he
had forgotten his wife's given name
Mrs. Giddings was well-dressed and
quiet, but neither particularly beauti-
full nor what could be called mag
netic. In fact, she was quite plain
the child called her mamma. !"
"Now, if it had been the maid |
Eunice, fine name !" thought Archi-
bald Giddings; but he promptly
drowned the thought by joining the
captain in a brandy and soda. The
captain took his straight.
Little Archie promptly attached
himself to the person of "Amos Grid
ley, Esq.," and the twain soon be-
came bosom friends. This necesita-
ted frequent walks, talks and games
with the maid, who was exceedingly
bright, accomplished and attractive
even beautiful, Mrs. Giddings was
a very poor sailor and seldom left her
cabin. Miss Eunice was an excellent
mariner in both fair and foul wealth
er. Father Neptune was dealing the
cards.
When Archibald Giddings sought
his berth he was haunted by dreams
of Eunice Che dropped the Miss in
his dreams.) Archibald Giddings'
mind had found something new to
work upon and was making the best
Of it. His blood fairly boiled through
unaccustomed and delighted new
channels.
These sensations would have been
extremely pleasant to Archibald Gid
dings had he not been tormented by
his keen sense of honor. 1t was not
Mrs. Giddings, his lawful wife, that
inspired this tumult within him.
All voyages have an end, and on
their last night afoat Archibald Gid
dings found himself promenading the
deck alone with Miss Eunice. The
ship pitched heavily, and Miss Eunice
clung closely to his arm for support
as they paced the deck. Was it pos
sible that she cared for him?
He never knew how he told her
all about it or what he said or what
he did. Her answer burned itself
indelibly into his bewildered brain
and a new world seemed to open to
him.
81 have known it all for three days,
dear, I found your name in one of
your books, 1 am not the maid, but
your legal wife, Eunice. The real
maid is my cousin, the Mrs. Gid
dings, you know. Yes, it is her
child"
What followed is not matter for
the historian to record. Suffice it to
say that the following week the Mel
bourne-bound Australian packet bore
the following entry on its passenger
list:
"Mr. and Mrs. Archibald Gid
dings' maid and child"
Life's voyage had made its real be-
ginning.

FEEDING CLOVER Hay.

The keep of farm teams is costing
money this year. Grain is cash
article, whether purchased or grown
upon the farm. Scientists have fg-
ured out that clover hay should fur
nish horse or COW quite well-bal-
anced ration, and many farmer is
wondering what ails the figures, ex-
perience having taught that clover
hay without grain will not keep
team in good condition at hard work.
1t will pay to think this matter out
right. The clover contains the food
elements in the proportion the sci
entists state, but with them is too
much bulky, indigestible stuff to
make clover hay alone a fit feed for
the horse which has small stomach
and limited time for eating. More
than this, the clover fed alone has
too free an effect upon the digestive
organs. While good clover hay has
about the right proportion of food
elements in it for the working horse,
it is not a perfect food, for the rea-
sons stated. 1t can, however, be
made the basis of a ration for horses
at moderate work, with great saving
of grain, if judgment is used. Being
bulky, some more concentrated food
in the form of grain--should be
given, and if it is binding, like corn,
so much the better. A little old tim
othy should be added. In this way
the new clover hay of this year can
be made to displace half the grain
ordinarily given to farm teams. 1t
should, however, be good clover.
The cutting should be in full bloom,
and the curing should be done in the
windrow and cock. That prevents
the leaves from becoming dusty. The
man who has not fed early cut and
perfectly cured clover hay is not a
competent judge of its value. Over
ripe or overcured clover is utterly un-
fit for a horse, while good clover ap-
proaches grain in value.

WEDDING.

Death went wedding, wedding,
His sickle over his shoulder;
The weak, the old, the overbold,
Grew weaker, wanner, colder.
He weeded them out of the garden,
The frail folk racked with pain,
The sick and the old, and the overbold-
And let the strong remain.
Now Death goes wedding, wedding,
The sword the tool he usesi
He gathers the fair, the debonair,
The young-and the old refuses.
He gathers out of the garden
The young and the strong and the gay,
He filings them far to the ditch of war
And the others he bids "Stay!"
So here in the ravaged garden
And out in the cornfield yonder,
The weak remain-lonely, in pain
And work. and brood, and ponder
How death digs out of the garden
The strong, and the brave, and the gay,
The flower of the years-with blood and tears
And filings them as weeds away.

THE DANGER OF BEAUTY.

I never read the papers
Without feeling 80 content
That both my eyes are twisted
And my nose is slightly bent.
I'm glad my mouth is out of line
And that my teeth are few,
And If had a wealth of hair"
don't know what I'd do.
A 'stiny foot" or lilly hand"
Would fill me with dismay,
And If / had q slender waist
I'd sicken in day;
For l have noticed from the first,
As strange as 1t may seem,
The girl who gets the worst
OF 1t Is "lovely as dream"
The papers never tell about
A woman being shot,
Or mangled by trolley car,
Or married to sot,
Or forced, at point of pistol,
Her last fifty cents to lose,
But that her eyes are s.limpid"
And her boots are number twos.
So can live in sweet content,
Without the slightest fear
That trouble or calamity
VIII ever hover near.
And when see my misfit face
It's some relief to know
That I'll outlive the beauties
BY hundred years or SO

THE HIRED HELP.

1t would seem that the question of
securing good and reliable farm help
might be simplifed by making the
laborer feel that he is wanted on the
farm. No one is ambitious who
knows that he is hired only because
he is actually needed by man who
would discharge him any minute if
his service could be dispensed with.
Possibly if the wages were fixed at a
reasonable rate for the year, and not
cut down to board and a mere pit
tance in winter, the tendency would
be to induce good help to stay.
Again the farmer should not de-
mand more than reasonable days
work. Don't work full day in the
field and then compel the hired help
to do the chores, but stop the outside
work early enough to leave time for
milking. 1t is not wise to do unne-
cessary work on Sunday, there is
enough that has to be done. Posi-
bly,, too, it is unwise to let the hired
mans pay run. Pay him regularly
at the end of the month to keep him
in necessary spending money. The
man who INDUCES in a spree after
every pay day is not good help under
any condition and had better be dis
charged.
If it is possible, it is we'll to make
good man feel himself part of the
family, as it were. Do not relegate
him to side table and make him
sleep in the stable, but give him a
good bed and board. Docking on
stormy days, letting pay day come ir-
regularly, and making the hired man
feel the family is above him general
ly is pretty sure way to sicken even
good hand. Farm work at its best
is confning, but need not be irksome
if the farmer, by the exercise of judg-
ment and generosity, treats his help
as he would like to be treated were he
in a similar position.-W. E. Stone.
