Kzx>er I mental Pi K -Feeding.
Ohio Experiments Experiment hi feeding swine under- at the
Station wore
taken to solve the following points: 1.
To produce flesh at least expense; 2, to
proa feeing uce flesh most rapidly, expense not
considered; 8, to produce most
edible meat, time and expense not to be
considered. The record shows that early
penned in March eight follows: pigs were selected and
shire and as Poland-Ohina; Pen, 1, two Berk
Poland-China one Pen 2, two
and one Berkshire: Pen :J,
two Berkshires. The food consisted of
the following: Pen 1 (cheap food), corn
meal cooked with twice its weight of
skimmed milk, giving a nutritive ratio
of 1:1.1; Pen 2 (rapid fattening), pea
meal cooked with twice its weight of
skimmed milk, giving a nutritive ratio
of 1:2.0; Pen a (for lean meat), equal
parts with corn-meal and pea-meal cooked
ing an nutritive equal weight of whole milk, giv
a of 1:8.0.
The director of the station stales the
continuance and the outcome of the ex
pertinents to have been that, in the nine
gained ty*two days of feeding those in Pen 1
pounds;in 448 8-4 Pen pounds; in pounds. Pen 2, 42*. Those 1 -2

fed upon corn-meal and skimmed milk
gained in flesh the most steadily. By
atvid ng the experiment into two sec
tioos of forty-two days each (for con
venieuce in calculation, leaving out the
eight that days in the middle), it was found
much the lArgeR||irt of flesh was
laid on during tBr*f!rst half of the
trial.

at are stated below:

At the average price per pound paid

Tho gilt-edge butter of the future will
not be washed at ell, says the American
Cultivator. The fine aromatic odors and
the nutty flavor will be retained, and not
washed away in streams of water. Water
injures butter. A cloth wrung out in
ice water, or even in fresh water, and
then spread over a layer of butter will
destroy its color and take out the good
qualities from the surface layer. Ice

"heel” ways accompanied by the old “bobbin
and a large bowl or tub of wnter

being .red to throw out the surplus

equally charged with moisture. The

two single large double wheels underneath and
wheels on the side that ran
against the leed. reed These wheels used to
destroy the in time, as the under
wheels did the race-board. There was
no box motion then. A piece of strong
twine was fastened to each picker and
brought fastened to the centre of the loom and
to a handle which the weaver
held in his right hand, and with which
the shuttle was thrown with great pre

“This is all right,
* Hood’s Sarsaparilla A
Can’t Fool me Twice. ”
Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is a peculiar medicine. In
very many respects it Is so different from any an.l
all other inedi lnes ever offered to the public that
It Is with peculiar force and propriety that It may
be said to be Peculiar to Itself. It Is peculiar to
Itself. In a strictly medicinal sense, In three import
! ant particulars, vi*.: first. In the combination of
remedial agenta used; tecond, In th# proportion In ;
to Itself
which they ara mixed; third, In t'ie prooesa by
which the active curative properties of the prepara¬
tion are secured.
These three Important points make Hood's Sarsa¬
parilla peculiar In the wonderful cures ithasac om
pllshod, wholly unprecedented In the history of
medicine, and giving to Hood’s Sarsaparilla a clear
right to th* title of "The greatest blood purifier ever
i discovered.”

Dear Sir:
I was taken with a very
severe cold last Spring,
and tried every cure we
had in the store, and could
get no had help. village doctor

prescribe for mo, but kept
gettiug worse. I saw an¬
other physician from Port
Jervis, N. Y., and ho told
i me he used l iso’s Cure for
Consumption in his prac¬
tice.
I bought a bottle, and
before I had taken all of it
there was a change for tho
better. Then I got my em¬
ployer to order a quantity
of the medicine and keep
it in stock. I took one
more bottle, and my Cough
was cured.
