One of DiSraeIi's Epigrams.

Disraeli's epigrams were pointed and
double edged. and this one, given by
George Russell in his diary. is about
as sharp as Disraeli could make it.
Some one had asked Disraeli if he had
read the Greville memoirs. Now. there
never had been much amity between
him and the Grevilles. and so he said ::

conceited person with whom l have

Millions I'm Drainage.


II is estimated that the swamp,
overflow and marsh lands Of Texas COW
er az area equal to 2.24O,0OO acres.
Those are sections that would be suita-
bic for cultivation after they were re-
claimed, and after reclamation suck
l?nds usually become the most produc-
tive of any In tie territory in which
they are located. Upon reasonable es-
Inmates, let US see what the reclama-
ton would do toward increasing the
wealth of Texas. besides improving the
health and destroying insect pests in
the localities which need drainage. In
their present unfit condition for homes
OF agriculture. the value of these sec
tons, according TO estimates, ranges
from 81 10 S per acre; but. accepting
SIS, the present value would be S17,-
$4,000.
Now. placing the cost necessary for
draining or reclaiming at an average
of about so and the value in present
shape at 8 per acre, or SIS per acre for
tie lands and the Improvement which
would make them suitable for farm
ing purposes. and the difference (S42)
between SIS and $50 per acre would be
a fair estimate to make for the en-
hanced value produced by such inn
provement. If we rely upon getting SIM
liar results in Texas as have been pro-
duced in other States by such improve
ment. Now il the value Of these 2,240,-
600 acres Of uatillable and uninhabita-
BILE lands can lie enhanced $40 per acre
and the lands made TO class among the
most productive and desirable in Tex

Finishing Hogs for Market.

Pork proguction is one Of the most
profitable fsrm industries in Georgia,
especially when conducted in conne.-
ton with d%airying and upon land where
plenty of caeap range, forage and root
crops can te ecured. The most salable
kind OF pork is that which contains 9
large proportion OF lean meat, as the
lard and fatty portions of the hog are
cheaper in price and troublesome to
handle, says a Georgia bulletin. The
type OF hog that produces a large share
of lean mea, is rapidly becoming the
most popular in America, and Is known
as the bacon type" examples of which
are tie Yorkshire and Tamworth
breeds. All the present breeds of hogs,
however. can be fed in such a manner
as to produce the same results, by a
proper combination of protein or nitro
geneous feeds which produce lean meat.
and starchy or carbonaceous feeds,
which produce the fat.
There is no question that the cheap
est method Of growing a pig from wean-
ing time until ready for the final fat
tening or finishing period, Is to use
good range or pasture, supplied with
acorns, mast or Bermuda grass, and in
addition some root or forage crop, such
as rape, peanuts, chufas, cowpeas. arti-
chokes, potatoes and sassava. with per-
haps a small quantity of grain. But
Tho trGyr.1 i60o nP Cfnal-nnp u-I,an faI-
ing up pigs weighing 125 to $50 pounds.
for the purpose of hardening the flesh
and finishing for market, is to feed
them in pens almost entirely on a diet
o. corn fo~ six or eight weeks. This
practice will invariably produce more
ot h soft fats than by feeding upon
a properly balanced mixture.
