It is remarkable how many farmers there are who seem to wholly ignore the fact that any other food than' dry corn is euitable for swine, when it is within their power to keep suck stock half or two thirds of the year on food not nearly so expensive and on which it would thrive much better. No man 18 really a ruccessful hog raiser who relies on corn alone or an excla- sive grain diet of any kind for build- ing up the framejwork of his growing pigs and shoats. Grain is all esson- tial at feeding time but only ot mod- erate extent before. Small Grain for Mgs. Western farmera have become so accustomed to making pork from corn that they ecarcely know what to do when & cors crop fails, Many farm- ore hesitate to settlo north of the line where larga crops of cern are raised, because tkey think they can not pro- duce pork to advautage. Now no one will deng that cornis a most excel- fens foed for fattering hogs, snd where it can be cheaply produced it is | gonerally the most economical article | that oan be employsd for that pur- pose. It is trae, howevor, that pork 1s ecenomically produced in places where corn cannet be ripened and that farmera thore'tind as much profit in radsing beef and mutton. In Great Britein barley is chiefly used for fat- teaite hogs. InTanada all the small grains except wheat, peas, and roota lazeely take the place of corn. In the New England stetes a little corn is d in conmection with potatoes, pumpkins, and mill-feed. A variety of the food given to hogs sppears to promote health end to produce meat of fine favor. As prices range thie season it is likely that oats will prove tc be a cheaperiood for hogs in maay| marts of the west where but little cora s raised. Experiments tried by sev- -otal seer to ehew that two bushels of -oats are worth as much as one buskel f corn for maling pork. In meny arts of the country it is easier to raise two buekels of onts then ene bushel of corn. The cost of theash- ing the oatais less than that of hvek- tng the corn. To produce the best ve- sults the oats-should be ground before they are fed. They will be readily | eaten and digested, however, if they re soaked in wailk ar water, Barley hich has boen discolured by ezpos- ure is an excellent food for pigs.

Easton, ilton, Ont, Raising German Oarp. Several subscribers during the past weok have been asked for information respecting German carp, their charac- teristics, their value for food, the construction of ponds for them, the method of feeding them, their excel lence as compared with other fresh water fish, and the means of obtain- ing a full supply. Detailed informa- tion on these poinis has been given in the Chicago Times during the past two years, but it may bo proper to repoata portion of it. The German carp is groatly inferior to the white fleh, lake trout, black basy, or even the pickerel, so ‘tar as flavor is con- cerned. The ‘flesh is white, but not very firm, and is gen- erally defoient in fat, ‘The fish grow co ‘Jarge size and increase very rapidly if allowed sulicient food. They ave desirable chiefly for the rea- sons that thoy are easily propagated, that they will do well in water too warm and 00 impure to support other and more waluable fish, thay they will eat & grest variety of subsiences thav are of litslo value, and that the small fry will endure transportation long distancee with little liability to ingury. Experiments show that the fish thrive in almost any latitude, and tnat they are not molested by noises and dis- turbanees that operate to exterminate many ‘varieties. On these accounts the Germen carp i8 & vory desirable fish for persons who live remote from mar- kots, ‘for farmers and village people who have water on their own grounds and oen raise the food required for feeding them, The German carp has boen zalled tho ““fish of civilication,” the “farmer’s fish,” and from its pro- pensity to eat almost anything placed at its disposal, the ‘‘aquatic pig.” It i not likely that this fish will ever be e favorite in city markets, but it is'| lilsoly to prove a great boon tu peo- ple living in the country. The fish was first brought to this .cotntry by the United States fish coramissioners several years e¢o, and hes been propagated at their hatchery near Washington. The fish commis- sloners of each state have been sup- plied with them, and several of them hwe been engaged in propagating them, The proper way to obtain a limited supply gratuitously is to apply to the fish commissioners of 'the state where one lives. Several persons who are epgaged in fish farming on tker own account have them for sale in large and small quantities, The small fry ocan be trausported in milk caus or other suitable ves- scls, The fieh commissioners of soveral states have arranged to send them by express to persons ordering them, They may be kept intubs or barrels of water & short timo after their arrival, but it is desireble to have n pond in readiness for them. The German carp will live in water thet is somewhat impure, but with very little doubt they will thrive best in water that is nearly pure, A small natural lake that is free from other kinds of fish or from those kinds that will devour them, is suitable for cazp, An artificial pond can ofien be propared for them at little cost. It whould be in the main from thseo to four feet deep, and should contain soveral deep holes for the sc- cammodation of the fish during .cold woather, The fish are pot active l‘uth\Y I\m/l Mt l\ 2] 7 THE 0TTAWA CYI INDER CORN SHELLE" n.‘\wl,m..vmx, or, oahe i | pond bage, celery, ardon veg d and chopped liv ocllent kind of food for young csrp aa | r those of larger growth, Most of ho leavings of the table will be read y doyoured by tho oarp.

San Francisco Wasp. ‘‘What is it, darling?” Gazing upon the still, white beauty of the summer night, lost to all thought save of the sweet young love that filled their beings and intoxicated their senses, living each in the heart of the other and caring for naught else, Mary Boyle and P, Murphy trod eilently the shadowy ways that led to the rustic monstrosity known as the Pavillion, in Golden Gato Park, “*What is it, darling?"”’ he murmured again, while the moemetic lont a fif- teent-cent tonderness to his tones and his manly boeom throbbed with sym- pathy. But she answerad not, There was a look of anguish on her foatures. The fair young Galway face was troubled, and, though the ordi nary observer might have seen noth ing but freckles upon it, the eye of love looked deeper and saw tho writ- ting of care that told of troublo in her heert. She clasped kis hand in hers —clasped all of it she could at one clesp—and gasped faintly: ‘‘Leave me!” Ho started as if shot—atarted with saddenness—and there was a pallor on kis face as he asked: ““You don’t mean it?” “Yes, Louave me,” sho answered, almost weeping, ““Not for aye, darl- ing,” she hast'ly continued, with some embarrassment. ‘‘Just a lml«. plain | leave of five minutes’ duration.” ‘‘Leave you unprotected against the errant hackman and yon carnivorous hotel-keeper?" he proteoted. ‘It must be." He left her, and the reckless steps of his accordion shoss as they crunched the gravel made rapid re- treating musto. Then the maiden stole forth into the moonlight and then into the shadow. A circle of white showed ominously under her polonaise as It trailed along the ground, and with nervous, impetuous steps she sped along the shadow-marked paths, through the sweet, cool might breezes, freighted with the mists of the gen and the perfume of the sceub osk, until a dark glade of the half- acre forest was reached, Here, with none to regurd her, her busy hands tied knots and things in mad impetu- ority, and then she hurried back. Torn with conflicting emotions of desertion and & cocktatl, he was the picture of despair, He leaned auainst one of the pavilion posts, almost weepiog. She laid her hand on his shoulder tendoriy, lovingly, “Then it ain't a cold shake,” he aeked, brightoning, There was the light of a great love in her eyes as she held her right ear toward him and murmured, as a wo- man only can: ““No, Patsy dear, skirt,” It was only my Kamoks, Mo, Feb. 9, 1880, I purchased five bottles of your Hop Bitters of Bishop & Co. last fall, during the winter, but lie in a sort of dozmant state, covered or partly cov- ered /in the mud. The pond lhould contain a few islands and should have part of the water shaded by flat rocks or plank extending from the banks L is alse desirable to plant some trees on the banks of the pond and on the islands, The carp pond can easily be mede atiractive as well as useful, The pond can be supplied with water drawn from a stream through & pipe, or can be filled by water wsuing from & sprivg or raised from s well by| wmesus of & wind-pump. An artesian well will supply ruflicient water for soversl carp ponds.
