lit 5 curious, said Bourbon county
farmer Saturday, how the people have
turned around within a couple of years
and become distrustfui. - The bunch
OF agrIcutlurists had been discussing
trusts and graft. Il had four hogs to
SELL not long ago, and advertised them
IN the Paris papers. A number of
people came out to see them. Among
them was widow who prides herself
on her business qualities. She wanted
me to swear to the breed, the weight,
and the fact that the hogs were in
good health. She wanted to be assur-
ed OF their good eyesight and hearing.
She wanted me TO sign a paper that |
mad raised the porkers instead of steal
ing them. When | had done all this
and the sale was about effected she
suddenly turned and walked away.
Hello. now, what's the matter?' call
ed after her. You've cut their tails
off, she replied. Yes" l said, that
was done when they were pigs She
studied a moment and then said, We'll,
you will have to knock off fifty cents
apiece for missing tails, or don't
buy. So it seems to be whole hog or
none at all.

Political PiCk.UpS.

! The increased railroad rates on grain
from the West will not go into effect
until May !. This is the first time in
many years that railroads have raised
rates or grain at the opening Of navi-
cation. Usually there is reduction
in rates at that time to compete with
water transportation. The increased
rates are said to be in retaliation for
the action of the legislatures in the
Central West in reducing passenger
freight rates. The railroad magnates
should remember that retaliation can
be played by more than one side.
