Reducing the Loss of Pigs.

One of the sources of loss in pig
raising is the number Of deaths at far
rowing time due largely to the lack
of some important element in the
makeup of the mother which probably
could have been controlled by the feed
ing. Experiments have shown that
blood meal is one OF the most impor-
tant feeds for both mother and young
but Ii must be given intelligently.'1r it
is likely to prove of little use. OF
course, it is understood that the main
loss of the pigs comes through the
scours and this is controlled by feed
ing the mother blood meal.
Then, too, the care of the young pig
has much to do with its progress, par
ticularly during the first week of its
life. and If there is anything
that it needs more than another
at this time it is dry, warm and
clean bed. The Importance Of this can
not be overestimated, and il one win
give this point the attention it de
mands he will see radical difference

Abont the seediess Apple.

Several papers have shown illustra-
tons of a so-called seedleSs apple. and
have had more or less to say In favor
of it. While it will not do to condemn
any new thing which may develop
merit as time goes on, it is safe to say
that even should a seedless apple
prove to be fairly good it will be I'M
able to compete with the better va
rleties which have seeds in smaller or
larger numbers.
AS one fruit grower pertinently said:
IF some one will originate and intro
duce an apple without core we will
welcome it, but l cannot see much of
a future for seedless apple" Fruit
growers will find many good varieties
of apples among the standard sorts,
and can afford to let seedless apples
alone for time, at least. If there is
any value to such an apple nursery
men will find it out, and the fruit
grower will then hear Of it and in
ample time to benefit him.

MANY WOMEN TALK TOO MUCH.

Some women are born gabblers. but more are

them is by constant yolley of rapid-f1re ceuver-

THE MYSTERIOUS WAYS OF FASHION.
BY sabrieI de Ia RochefOucaurd.

In literature and in politics Fashion has few
ideas, but she dictates opinions Often it is wise
to listen to her lavish advice in order not to be-
come the object of ridicule. Ridicule is FASH
ions weapon which she plies without mercy
when she chooses to take revenge.
Sometimes artIess persons, noticing that Fash
ion rarely admires the same thing two days in
succession, led into trying to anticipate her.

AS n result Of the revelations in the
Chadwick case, the Treasury Depart
ment will start an inquiry to ascer-
tain if possible why it Is that national
bank examiners do not detect such
frauds as We're perpetrated on The
bank at Oberlin. The Comptroller OF
the Currency declines to discuss the
subject, but there is every reason to
believe that by direction of the Pres
ident he is preparing to make it plain
TO the examiners in the field that they
must use greater caution. Within the
last year a large number of national
banks have gone to the wall, and in
nearly every instance, it is asserted,
the examiners ought to have had some
knowledge of the condition of the
banks long before they closed their
doors.

Influx of immigration and not dras
tic legislation by Congress will solve
the negro question in the South. This
is substantially the decision of the
House committee having charge Of the
bills proposing reduction of the South's
representation in Congress. While n
resolution may be adopted directing an
investigation, no bill will be passed
to punish the Southern States for us
franchising the negroes, as leaders in
Congress believe that not only the de-
velopment OF the South. but the well
fare Of the negro, would be injured
by a legislative attempt to correct the
evil.

great temples and palaces of the an

of the proposal now seriously consider
ed, to execute in staff, at full size and

whether the change is wholly desirable,

how beautiful temporary structures in
