Bacon Breeds of Hogs.

Several years ago considerable was
being written about the Tamworths as
the only breed that would make good
bacon hogs. 1t is doubtless true that
this particular strain is best suited for
the purpose, but, on the other hand, it
Is n question if it ever paid any farm
rr 70 raise them exclusively. True,
there are specialists who have made
money in catering to the fancy bacon
market, but they found it profitable
only after long years of experimenting
md fully learning the secret of Feed
Ing to produce certain results. With
the average farmer, who raises what
pork he needs for home consumption
and perhaps a dozen head besides. 1t is
doubtful If it pays him to experiment
much with breeds, beyond getting some
strain that will give him the best re-
turns in weight at the smallest expense
for feed. If one Is raising swine with
an idea of selling the progeny when
young to other farmers, then consid-
cradle care should be taken to secure q
breed for which there is n demand, and
then to breed the animals on the plan
that will give strong, healthy and pure
bred young, and in this way work up q
reputation. 1t must be admitted, how
ever, that there Is demand for fancy

Farm Notes.

To have clean, smooth-barked trees
whitewash them.
A lighted lantern under the lap-rob,
on very cold day will help to keel
you warm.
If you did not cut out the boreri
from peach, ounce or apple in the
summer or fall, do 1t now.
A wooden rag moistened with castor
oil rubbed over the harness will keer
mice and rats from gnawng them.
Equal parts slfted coal-ashes, salt
and clay moistened with a very little
water will cement cracks in stoves.
DO not let the apples freeze either in
bins, or on the way to market. They
may tell you it will do no harm, but
it will.
Small apertures in the walls of build
ings often admit draughts of air sufH
Client to cause great injury to stock
especially the dairy COW.
Give geese a dry shed from damp
ness and drafts. They will stand al
most any amount of cold If theil
quarters are dry. Whole oats and
corn, some cabbage or boiled vegeta
bles and plenty of pure water make
the best rations.
1t may be an advantage to chang,
the garden location every two year,
and SOW clover on the plot. The rea
son is that as the garden soil Is sub
ject to teaching, like other portions o.
the farm, the clover roots go dowI
and bring the fertilizing ingredients t,
the surface. AS the garden is ais
made rich by extra applications Of ma
nure a change of location enriches
different plot every year or two, whll
the close cultivation destroys thu
weeds.

Irish Politics.

The tragic times In Ireland, wheL
peasant was at open war with landlord
and all were at war with English rule
are relieved by many good stories. AS
Michael Marlborough says In his book
Irish Life and Character" the mer
curlal Celt is whimsical in time of trou
BILE.
When A. j. Balfour, the present
Premier, was Chief Secretary for Ire
land, he met Father Healy at a dinner
In Dublin.
Tell me, Father Healy," said Mr.
Balfour, lis it true the people of Ire
land hate me as much as the National
list papers representa-
Hate you!" replied the priest. 81
they hated evil as they hate you, Mr.
Balfour. my occupation would be gone.
| Yet it was Mr.. BalfOur who a few
years later had accomplished much to
ward the paclficatlon Of Ireland. Hi
name became amuslngly prominent il
Irish families. A gentleman driving
into the town of Westport, Count,
Mayo, was stopped by pig which RAJ
In front of his horse. An old peasan
shouted across the ditch to boy VIII
was watching the pig stupidity;
"Arrah, Mick, will ye stir yerself
Don't ye see Arthur James runniI
awayT
Struck by the name the gentlema
asked the old man about it, and foun
that In gratitude to Mr.. Balfour, VIII
had been the means of getting them tn
pig, the peasant had given the animI
his name.

Brief Hints.

Half teaspoonful of sugar will re-
vive a dying fire.
When baking n Custard pudding or
pie, as soon as the cuStard becomes
solid remove the dish from the oven,
for too long cooking will make the cus-
tard watery.
When flavoring has been forgotten in
pudding or cake the fault may be
'emedied by rubbing the desired ex-
ract over the outside of the cake as
Don as it is taken from the oven.
Every scrap of the bread box's rem,
lants should be dried, rolled and saved
Cor use in frying or other culinary pros
,esses. The crumbs keep better in

To have fried oysters crisp, tender
md plump, they should be Dreaded,

them to stand at least an hour before

sectionalism, and the masses ar
everywhere seeking the solution
Every citizen is knitting his brow
in his earnest endeavor to thinl
out some plan by which labor ant
capital may each have Just di
vision of profits, and in the hop,
that some mode Of determination
on this point that will be Just anG
final will be found.
The authorities from Mr.. Roose.
velt down to the humblest executive
are earnestly striving to assist in
developing measures and means to
bring about this result. The public
press is educating the masses as
well as capital, that this end
may be obtained peaceably and
Justly. The public schools and
colleges are in the discussion
debating earnestly this all-im-
portant question, and all grades
and classes in this great country
are working to the end that solu-
ton may be found that will bring
happiness and just reward to the
toilers Of the land, and also that
capital may receive fair compen-
sation for money actually employed.
This is already the verdict Of the
people; the verdict of the greatest
body in every civilized country
the consumers-which is today the
great arbitrator of the labor ques-
tion; for surely no matter how high
wages or interest may go, the con-
sumner is the one who has the para
mount interest, for on him must
fall the responsibility of paying
every cent that everything costs,
with interest on the investment.
Capital cannot pay the unrestrained
demands Of labor and work with
an unrestrained watered stock, for
prices would go to heights that
would work untold hardship on the
great mass of consumers, many of
whom have limited and fixed in
comes that cannot be changed with
every flight of prices. Therefore,
the consumers interest must be
considered in the adjustment ofthe
great question.

in our views, but we believe we are
