Styles and Methods In the Days When
II Was New.

It Is not so very long ago when a
daguerreotype was the only photo
graph. Yet today, when in the fraction
of second is made the negative from
which hundreds Of pictures may be
printed, we seem very far removed
from the days when separate sitting
was required for each picture.
Abraham Bogardus, one Of the first
Americans to use Daguerres process,
once favored us with some reminis-
cences that throw an interesting light
OIL those "old times"
I'm the early days Of the daguerreo-
type the frock coat was seldom seen.
A man was we'll dressed when he wore
blue cloth coat with black velvet col
lar and plain brass buttons, his waist
coat being either white or light yellow
and double breasted. The only time I
ever saw Daniel Webster he wore such
coat and yellow waistcoat.
II often made pictures Of old men In
full ruff1ed shirt bosom and wrist
bands as we'll and with hair In a cue.
Some men still wore straps at the bot
tom of their pantaloons. Most OF
them, instead Of twisting their mus
taches, employed their hands to roll
their hair over their ears.
Indeed, a mustache was seldom
seen, and it required considerable
courage to appear with one. Young
women would laugh, and street urchins
were ready to ridicule the wearer.
1T was common for women to have
their hair shaved at. the parting to
make the forehead high. The higher
and broader the expanse the better
the woman was pleased and the great
er was the number Of her admirers,
the high broad forehead being sup
posed to betoken intellect.
1.-The pictures we made at that per-
iod were pretty severe. Every line
and wrinkle would show. We had not
learned the art Of retouching, and the
likeness was sure to be there-horribly
correct it sometimes seemed.
"As for the retouching process, 1t Is
right to soften strong lines and re-
move frowns, but it Is not right to re-
move line when by so doing one de-
stroy the contour Of the face. l have
had persons seventy years old ask II
could take their picture so the wrinkles
would not show. My answer invaria-
bly, was, yes, but where will the like
ness be?' A photograph that Is not
likeness seems to me not only a mis-
leading but a senseless thing.

WHY THE HAM Is Too SALTY.-"We
are having many complaints about the
unusual saltiness of ham, bacon and
canned goods this summer" said a To-
cal butcher who does a large family
trade. Il suppose it is the same every
where else. Standard goods that we
have been able to recommend for years
are salt as brine now. The packing
houses tell us that 1t is because they
are no longer permitted to use the pre-
servatives that got such raking over
the Goals after the Spanish war Iney
simply must pile on the salt or their
ham and bacon won't keep. The pack
ers will be obliged to find some way
out of the difficulty, or they Will have
to go out of business altogether. In
the trade we are noticing the falling
off in orders from hotels and restau-
rants. No man wants rasher OF ba.
con or a slice Of ham for break1ast IL
it Is going to send him round with a
raging thirst all day. y."-Philadelph1a

JOHN w. MOORE.

Mr.. John w. Moore, one Of the old
est and most highly esteemed citizens
of Bethesda township was born near
McConnellsville, on August 16, 1917,
and is now living with his son, Mr.. P.
M. Moore, about five miles south Of
Yorkville. He is today aged IS years
II months and days.
Mr.. Moore was born on a farm, and
has been a farmer during all Of his
active life. In May, 1S43, he was mar

farmhouse, with its veranda and white
columns, to which the field road led up
q gradual slope, showed only its out

steadied his gaze upon the house, saw
the figure of an elderly woman come
out of the gate and with quick step
hurry down to him. 1t was his mother.
She was tall and angular and had high
cheek bones and small blue eyes. She
had rather thin gray hair, which was
wound into a knot behind her head,
and over it she wore only small red
breakfast shawl. which she held In

The Alfalfa Hog.

It will not be a great while until
the term alfalfa hog means a differ
ent type from that grown east. When
the railroads master the problem of
carrying hogs through without dis
ease quite per cent of the pork of
the country will be grown west of the
corn belt, where alfalfa does better
than in the central states. We look
for the time when our pigs will be
shipped east to cattle feeders and
farmers who have more corn than
hogs. These shoats when put on a
heavy corn diet, whether on an alfalfa
farm or not, make rapid gains and
we believe will make better use OF
corn than hogs grown on a corn ration.
Everybody in this country knows that
hogs grown on alfalfa have much
greater resisting power to cholera
than those grown on corn and sub
jected to the same disease under the
same conditions.-Field and Farm.

FatteninR Growing Birds.

A matured animal or bird fattens
more readily than one that is growing.
because it's requirements are fewer.
1t is sometimes very difficult to make
q growing chick fat, as the food goes
to form bone and muscle rather than
fat, the carbOnaceOus material serving
to heat the body. Such chicks seem to
grow rapidly, and really attain good
weights in a short period, but they are
not always fat. In order to fatte1
them properly, the work must be done
quickly. They should be cooped. up.
and given plenty of cornmeal and
ground grain moisted with milk. with
wheat and ground corn at night One
week is long enough, as they will begin
to lose flesh or become sick if kept con-
fined too long, for The growing chick
can subsist but short time on car
bonaceous diet. The necessity for nj
trogen, due to the formation Of feath-
ers, as well as lack of the elements
of bone, will cause chicks to droop.
The chicks may be made to gain one
fourth their weight in ten days; that
is, two-pound chick in ten days
should weigh two and one-half pounds.
But in such cases the weight is not SO
desirable as the fat, as they will gain
very rapidly if highly fed, even when
running at large, though they do not
fatten readily on account of all thu
food going to flesh and bone. AS sool.
as they mature they fatten very quick
ly, and with pullets The difficulty will
then be to prevent them from becom-
ing too fat.-Farm and Fireside.
