HOGS.

Strange as it may seem, hogs, like
people, are endowed with tempera-
ment. That hog which is always nos
Ing and shifting about and alert at the
sound Of every. approaching footstep
possesses a nervous temperament, and
you want to feed him with special ref
erence to furnishing your bacon sup
ply, while that old fellow ever there
in the corner, that never stfrs unless
it is to eat, you want to consign to the
pork barrel He has what is called a
phlegmatic temperament The reason
for the distinctions made is obvious.
For the bacon you want streak Of
fat and streak of lean, and you get
that In the first because the fat is all
worked off running around, but the
second snoozes contentedly all the day
long and does nothing but lay on the
fat, which is just what is wanted for
the pork Perhaps you have noticed
that some hogs lay on more fat than
others and have wondered why.

A COMPARISON.

A farm which Is continually drained
by the production Of large crops raised
with reference to supplying the local
or foreign markets becomes in time
like the small town which has just
been visited by the circus The farm
sends forth it's crops without a CORE
spending return Of fertility to the soil;
the town parts with it's money without
receiving proportionate impetus and
growth In business In the one case
the object sought Is money, which
gives nothing back to the soil. IN the
other case the object in view Is pleas
ure, which adds nothing to the wealth
Of the community Each year that the
farm loses its crops the soil becomes
that much poorer. Each time that the
town has q circus the people have just
that much less money to spend for 9th
er things.

were filed in 50 as to make the bins
mouse proof a heavy, square board
cover was fitted over the whole on

added If desired with but little work

It is not only the merchant of the
small town who objects to the PERM
cious mail order system as commonly
carried on, but the farmer himself is
getting stirred up. One intelligent
farmer says that It is beginning to af-
feet the value of farm property, but
that is not the worst Of it. The daugh-
ters and wives are devoting their Sun
days TO the shopping by mail, trying
to get something for nothing by pay
ing the freight bills. When this mail
order catalogue business gains such
foothold in the home that it interferes
with the moral and religious training,
then something should be done.

STANDARD TERRA GOTTA
CHANGES A SURPRISE.
Action of the Board of Directors
Yesterday Discussed on All
Sides Last Night.

The news of the sweeping changes
at the Standard Terra Gotta Works,
published exclusively in the EVEN
ING NEWS last night, was almost the
sole topic of conversation here after
the paper appeared. Some of the en-
ployes at the works denied some of
the details in the story, but from best
obtained there seems to
be no reason for changing what the
NEWS gave to the public yesterday.
That Albert Bollschweiler is out of
the Standard entirely is admitted by
all. All efforts to see Mr.. Bollsch-
weller have failed thus far. He is
declared to be in New York today
e. c. Richmond, Peter Glauss and
Paul Woitscheck, who were dis
charged few days ago, are reinstat-
ed, as stated last night. The NEWS
also said that Mr.. Woitscheck had
been made director and president of
the company, succeeding Mr.. Bollsch-
weller, and that George c. Hill Is the
new general manager. These facts
are disputed by some, but as far as
the NEWS has been able to learn.
they are substantially correct.

John Seaman, Il grocer, and Wal
ter Mullen, milkman, were given
trials before Judge Lyon yesterday in
the district court, on charges pre-
ferred by the State Board of Health
for selling milk containing formalde-
hyde. John Seaman was found guilty
and fined $50
The case of Walter Mullen was
non-suited. Another milk case was
discontinued.
The case of the State Board of
Health against John Fink, of Wood
bridge, for an alleged sanitary viola
tion, was also discontinued.
The trial was by jury. Beekman
&c Spencer represented Seaman and
Mullen, and the State Board of
Health had its own attorney here.
The state authorities are prosecut-
ing a vigorous campaign all over this
section of the state to stop the use
of formaldehyde which is put into
milk, ii is alleged, to keep it from
souring as soon as it otherwise would.
Inspectors have been here from time
to time recently, frequently hating
milk wagons on their rounds on the
street. to secure samples of the milk
for the purpose of testing it,
