A Tribute to Mrs. Hog.

Says j. M. Andrews, of Dawson,
Mo-, in the Kansas Farmer, writing
of The Old Spotted Sow"
Most potent of any single influ
ence in the building of this, the
mightiest nation in history, is the
spotted SOW. Her sons and daueh-
tiers pay the taxes, buy the shoes
and clothe the family, and cause
new home to be developed farther
West, and send our children to COL
lege. They supplied the food of the
Anglo-SaXon, a race that was never
conQuired since history began. The
old SOW is the mother of all the
porkers that feed the human race.
She is the ready aid of the farmer,
the pet of the rich man and the
ever-present aid of the poor. She
is the economist of the farmer, and
the conservator of their resources.
She partakes of the grains of the
field, and leaves the farm richer for
her presence. AS she helped to de-
velop the farm from the wilderness,
and as she ate of its first grains, so
she will renew the life of the soil
and make a greater agriculture
possible"

A correspondent in China tells
how the Chinese, who. handle silks
and satins in the most wonderful
way always mix a thin flour paste
and rub it over the wrong side of
the satin, along the line which you
wish to cut, and use only the
smallest possible amount. Rub off
with the fingers all that you can
and allow the remainder to dry.
Press the right side of the mater
ial with a warm iron, and the most
intricate pattern may be cut from
the silk or satin without a single
travelling; nor will the material curl
up in any way that makes it so
difficult to work with successful
ly.-Ex.
