Gone to rest, one little darling,
Here no more we'll see her face:
But we'll meet again in heaven
When we've run iife's rugged race.
Gone to rest, asleep in Jesus
Blessed hope, We'll meet again,
And in heaven there'll be no parting,
Wen be free from care and pain.
Short her stay, but how we'll miss her
Stricken hearts alone can say;
When we see the little garments,
Miss the child's face day by day
Gone to rest, she's free from sorrow,
With the Angels round Gods throne,
And again we soon shall see her;
But our hearts are sad and lone.
When we reach the pearly portals
or the City bright and fair.
There Wen meet our little darling
She will bid us welcome there.
And with Jesus and the angels
We will dwell forever more,
And we'll know our little darling
When we meet on that bright shore.

Hog Notes.
BY Shepherd.

Feed bro ID sows but little corn.
Good slops is best for sucking
sows.
Sour swill should never be fed
any time.
Nothing is more detrimental
to litter of young pigs than
damp nest.
There is no surer step In over
stocking than a struggling far
rowing season.
With plenty Of milk as start
er, young pigs will soon take to
slop made of mill feed.
There is little danger in having
the sow fatlf the food used to
produce fat is Of the proper kind.
AS soon as the little pigs begin
to eat, they are then practically
supporting and demand less of
the mother.
AS far as can be done, the sows
should be bred to farrow their
pigs not later than the latter
part of September.
The SOW can never reach the
point as mother she would have
attained if not bred until she was
more fully developed.
There is no question but that
the proper feeding and care of
the hogs has much to with ward.
ing off disease.
The habits and dispositions of
animals depend almost entirely
upon the care and treatment they
receive, and more especially is
this true of the hog.
Usually it will be found to be
a good plan to have a bucket of
slop ready to give a SOW as soon
as she is done farrowlng.
If the trough for the SOW is
made flat and shallow, and the
slop fed the sow is sweet and
warm, the pigs will begin to eat
at three weeks old.
There Is no real necessity in a
sucking SOW losing flesh. After
all danger is past. and the pigs
are four weeks old, feed her suf.
ficlent to keep her in good flesh.
While the pig is a wonderful
assimilator Of the good, bad and
Indifferent foods that come in his
way, he cannot make good pork
out Of every thing he will eat.
1t is not always safe to assume
that a SOW Will never farrow a
larger number because she only
Iitters a small number the first
time ; in many cases it is best to
give her second time. Live

quiesced In the diagnosis. It was
then ascertained that last summer.
while living at Kiona. Mr.. Perry was
working horse which was suffering
from lumpy jaw. though no one sup
posed the disease was communicable

Mr.. Perry's case. is practically the
same as cancer. Much interest is
taken in the case by physicians.
