English Towns.

That there are many instances in
England of two or more towns enjoy
Ing the same name is a fact that no.
body can we'll help knowing, but prob
ably few people are aware of the very
wide extent to which this duplication
Of names prevails. Newton seems to
hold the same rank among places as
Smith among individuals, no fewer
than seventy-two towns and villages
in England alone bearing this name
BY including the Newtowns, obviously
the same name with slight difference
in spelling the total is raised to little
short of ninety. AS every town must
have been new town" at some time or
other it shows great lack of inventive
genius among our ancestors who had
the naming of the towns. There are
sixty-eight places named Sutton. Our
ancestors seem to have found the four
points Of the compass of great service
in the nomenclature Of their towns, for
besides the Suttons there are fifty-one
Westons, forty-nine Nortons and seven
teen Eastons To these last should be
added thirty-eight Astons, another form
Of the name very common in the west
of England.-London Chronicle.

THE CURL IN
THE Pigs TAIL

An old man while locking over my
herd of Berkshire swine not long ago
remarked 70 me: There are some hogs
which / prefer to the Berkshires, but
there is one feature about your Berk-
shires that / always like very much,
you always have the curl in their tails.
And, after all, there is not SO much in
the breed of hogs in profitable pork
production as there is in the good feed
ing and care that show thrift by the
curl in the tail.
lon one occasion few years ago |
wanted to buy some pigs, and the man
who was then farming one of your
places asked me to come and see some
at the pigs the man apologized for
their bad condition by telling me they
were bewitched and that he had been
thinking about going to consult witch
doctor about them. The pigs were
NANCY, thin and bore all the ear
marks of unthrift. Their tails hung
down straight and sorrowful looking.
OF course | knew there was no use in
arguing with a man who believed in
witches and things of that kind, but |
could fully agree with him that there
was something the matter with his
pigs and advised him to widen their
ration of nubbins and dishwater, to
take In all they would eat of skim milk,
cornmeal and wheat middlings. | told
him | had never fed anything so effec-
tive as that combination in bringing
back the curl to pigs tails and that |
believed the trouble with his pigs was
that their tails had lost their curl"
| feed my swine considerable corn,
probably more than the professors
would approve of as scientific feeding.
To my mind that feeding is most sci
entific that produces the best results
from minimum cost. that keeps up
the curl in the tail and shows a good
profit. A careful, watchful feeder can
use a great deal of. corn In his swine
feeding without by any means produc-
ing an undesirable amount of fat.
Corn does not all run to fat. 1t con-
tributes to the making Of lean meat,
blood, bone and the repair of tissue. 1t
Is not all clear carbohydrate. 1t has
protein also, and one of It's greatest
recommendations is that no feed that
we can use carries it's nutrients In a
form so digestible as those in corn, and
no feed is more palatable.-W F. Nc
Spartan in Farm and Fireside.

The Continental Express company is
a grea Institution 1t does business in
every state between the seaboards, and
its employees. who are messengers OH
trains. local agents, route agents. office
men and drivers, number thousands.
The Continental continues to be great
and to pay dividends because it takes
q particular interest in the goings in
and colnings out of each of it's en-
ploye2s. 1t demands services of them
and loads responsibilities upon them at
which bank presidents would shudder.
The company's motto, il thing SO
thoroughly useless We're ever an APP
pendage of an enterprise SO utilitarian,
would be, The Continental expects
every man to Go his duty"
The corporation comes nearer to rep
resenting abstract justice than the SUI
preme court Good men are advanced
in precisely the degree they deserve
advancement. Bad men are punished.

A Domestic Treasure.

Sir Squire Bancroft in proposing the
health of the bishop of London told a
story in his inimitable way. A charm
ing young damsel came to London to
visit an aunt, who probably came origi-
nally from Scotland, for when the
young lady was leaving in cab for
an evening party she said: Nov, mind;
don't you pay him more than / shiI-
ling. It's his legal fare" Arrived at
her destination. the young lady sprang
out, handed cabby shilling and bound
ed up the steps of the house.
Ere, | say. miss!" called cabby.

Some months ago quartet of cat
tlemen dining in a Chicago hotel drift
ed into a discussion Of market topics
Naturally comparison was drawn be-
tween the vaulting prosperity of the live
mutton trade, the satisfactory condi-
ton of the hog market and the rough
road the cattleman was required to
travel Picking up the bill Of fare,
one man said This price list is a par
tial explanation of the discrimination
against beef A decent steak costs a
dollar, but mutton chops are carded at
40 cents and pork chops nickel less
The average diner is actuated by mo-
tives Of economy and orders the cheap
er article. The chop, pork or mutton.
is enjoying distinct advantage over
the steak, for the reason that 1t costs
the eater less. And the farther east
you go the more pronounced you will
find this disposition to eat chops. Bos-
ton and New York are the greatest
mutton consuming centers in the
world. We must furnish the consumer
with smaller but better finished beef
In New York not long since every re-
tail butcher | interviewed told me that
the demand in steaks was for a thick
cut but light steak. In other words,
the big carcass is out of Breed
er's Gazette.

Skim Milk Calf Unattractfye.

Calves brought up on skim milk are
most unattractive from six to twelve
months of age. The Idaho experiment
station reports: They develop a stom-
ach out of proportion to the rest of
their body, and their coat is not quite
as smooth as it is when calves run
with their dams. However, the calves
have learned how to eat and digest
coarse feed in larger quantities than
calves reared on whole milk. The d.
gestive organs are better developed for
pre- o+ica' fooain" from this period on to
