PIG FARMS APE
 THRIVING NOW
Many People Are Engaged in
 Producing Pork.
1T IS 4 RECENT INDUSTRY
Nothing in Husbandry More Prohts- bic to the Farmer Than Hog Rsis- tno-Useful to Reclaim Scrub
 Land and Make lt Productive.

Special Hartford CorrespondenceJ
 Hartford With pork on the hoof bringing $1t.50 hundred, the wonder is that more attention has not been paid in the farming sections here about to hog raising as department of husbandry. There isn't anything that will bring the farmer more money than hog raising with pork atthe pres ent prices, and 1t is predicted that there will be an advance of from to cents a pound. Men who have made d study Of hog raising say that II lne hog is properly handled. the fertilizer which it produces Is worth Co the land nearly as much as the hog itself VIII bring in the open market. Hog fertu- lzer beats any fertilizer for corn and grass. and while the hog Is developing itself for the pork market t can be used to reclaim acres of scrub land on farms which are now considered worthless and which give no return 10 The owner. although each year the tax collector come around for the taxes. 4 census of the hog population within 4 radius of ten miles of City Hall will
 
 show that 1t is much greater in the aggregate than it was ten years ago The hogs however, will not be found distributed about on the farms as they used te be, but are concentrated on what can properly be called pig farms There are about dozen such places within ten miles Of City Hal, while but few pigs are to be found in the possession Of the general farmer where len or a dozen years ago there were many. A man who is familiar With the pig farm industry hereabouis' aB it has developed within few years, said that he believed that there are approximately 1000 pigs on the pig farms on the outskirts of the city That the pig farm has become a recog- nized industry with many Is shown by the difference fin the way things are done from few years ago. Until very recently table refuse was not 5uppos- ed to have any merchantable value and the hotels, restaurants and large boarding houses were glad to give 1t to any who would call and take It away. Since men have started in the business of raising hogs. the refuse has become an article of value.

Pond Homestead Burned.

The old Pond homestead near Pc quabuck was burned. The reason giy. ell is that gasoline was used instead of kerosene for kindling fire. The house has lengthy history and was built in 1795. Jonathan Pond, the first of the Pond family to come from Bran ford settled at first on Chippin's Hill
 in Bristol and then bought the farm at tho foot of Fall Mountain on which the burned house was built. It re- mained in the Pond family for nearly 100 years The farm of 200 acres was partly in Bristol and partly in Ply mouth the Schneider homestead near by being at the time one of the Pond homes. The house was last occupied by the Pond family in 1864.

 Or ever you go from me. Tour wonderful ways. my laddie. your

 Is wondrous place With play and song the whole day long,

 Its story upon your face. You've got to grow up. my laddie, and

New Orleans Futures.

New Orleans, August S.-Cotton futures
opened steady at an advance of 1 to 3
points on good cables, both official and
private English futures were higher than
due and private advices expressed conf
dence in the present level of values. The
weather map was again very favorable,
left and cloudy, with considerable rain
indicated in Texas and Oklahoma. The
forecast promised more rain which re-
vived hope among the bear element that
this will be wet month. With the main
features SO well balanced, the market did
not move much and at the end of the
first half hour Of business, prices stood 3
to 4 points UP.
Toward the middle OF the morning the
market weakened rapidly under bearish
crop accounts from nearly all sections OF
the belt bat particularly from Texas and
Georgia Offerings from both sides in
creased and prices crumbled away until
the most active months were 20 to 81
points down from the highest levels. No
support was offered the market on the
way down, but finally around 1905 for
October shorts began to take profits Buy
ing from this source checked the decline
and brought about a moderate recovery,
the market at noon standing is to 81
points under yesterdays close. At the
lowest, prices were 25 to % points under.
A feature Of the morning was the receipt

The feature of the days stock market,

Lehigh Valley moved in sympathy, the
buying being attributed to the same
sources as in the case of Reading Har-
