I live in a boarding house, Don't laugh when I tell you Of all the sorrow and distress That I have to go through, I retire to bed at ten o'clock And am 'most asleep, you know,.

As to the amount of food, I only, say, a writer in the Ohio Far mer, that ýn my jndgment you can not push pigs too fast if you teed for bone and muscle rather than fat. and I would give a variety or food and all that they will eat. You must use jud'gment and not teed* so much that some foul freed will be left in the trough; but if you only give wrhat, they will eat a;, clean, there is no danger of over. feeding. In order to. give variety, and encourage them to eat a large quantity of food I would feed some whole corn eacb day-one or two cars each per day after the pigs are three month old. When the object is to develop a pig so as to get it ready for market as soon as p~ossible there is-no economy in short rations, but the more food we can get it to digest the cheaper we cad produce the pork. I believe bran to be the cheapest; and best food we can give toea growing ptig; bnt we must° feed with some other food. Oil meal is only to be fed as a balance ration and for the small quantity required we can aff rd to pay $1.25 per 100 pounds; but it con-Id not be sub stituted for the other foods named. I place a good deal of importance on the use of salt ini this ration, both to make it palatable and also to add to its digestibility. Always manage so as. to have your .slup barrel emptied once a day, to prevent it from becoming too sour; and add salt each time you mix fresh slop. It is best to have two barrels and use theta alternately. I am speak ing now of hot weather feeding, when a little carelessness or neglect will develop acidity so as to inijure the food. U~nftbf Tair tiom. Senator Gersad Brown, State lecturer of the Pennsylvania grange said in a speech at Williama's .Orove that the necessity of uniting in, one supreme effort for the correction of the unequal and untjust taxtation prevailing in Pennsylvania had greatly increased by reason of the depressed agricultural interest. What could be tolerated in pros perous times could not now be endured, when the owneus of real estate were not only oblige to pay their own tax, but at large majority of that levied on other property holders. Real estate was - taxed ,seventeen mills, but the holder of city and borough property could and did, racoup himself to a larger degree by making up for the dis criuuination aginst real estate by commanding corresponding higher rents. The farmer had no power to raise the price of his products, and so repay himself for increased taxes. Stook to- the amount of $6,000 has been subscribed and srrranige mernts are in progres4 tot the con struction of an ice factory and cold storage warehouse.

"It may have been noticed," says the Galveston News, "that thie widow of Jefferson Davis sinci hie death~ signs her name ' J, Jefferson Davis.' Many persons doubtleae suppose she has added the name Jefferson to her Chriatithn Mamar Vari na. But thia is not- the proper explanation. V. is the abreviation of veuve, the French for widow sand itie the customi in Louisiana, and perhaps in other parts of the South for widows to place that letter before the Christian nhmes of iheit+' deceased husbands.
