We learn from reliable authority that two Palmerston girls recently visited a photographer and had themselves photographed with their faces stuck coquettishly through a torn newspaper. When the pictures were finished and delivered they were horrified to find that the paper they had used was a Chicago sheet, and just below their smiling faces was a big display advertisement of a clothing firm which announced : "Our shirts are all wool."

It was late in the yeer when Bill reached Winnipeg, tad. tiie Wily weather is supposed to have effect- ed his usually well-balanced judg- ment. At any rate in due course of time he presented Mr. Van Horne with a report, the main conclusions of which were these : (1) That in order to raise hogs at all it would be necessary to furnish each hog with a fur coat or por- table stove. (,2) nett even with these comforts the hog would be sure to become thick of hide, this being nature's provision against cold, and long of snout, nature's provision to enable it to root in the hard -earth ; so that, given time enough, it would develop into an alligator, chasing the affrighted settler from Rat Portage in the east to Whoop _ip in the we ,t, and making hint tired, to say the least, from too much o:ftil?l3is,, (3) But if notwithstanding 'thesis o1 jectiop.s, Mr. Van Horne was still bent upon' trying to raise hogs in Manitoba, it would be well, in view of the pre- sence of so many roving Indians, to import a long-legged variety, and breed not for fat but for speed. Iver. Green has been in Manitoba sineet ttieen, and allows that his re- port Wail jitzllltiiced. Hog -packing has grown to he cllj d an industry in Winnipeg, and all the hots ere Manitoba -bred. At one time p4ei4 ers were obliged to get live or dressed hogs from Ontario, but that day is past. The Manitoba hog is sufficiently numerous to supply. not only the local demand but the demand in the Kootenay and parts of Iaaritish Columbia. Just now, too, the 24144 (05 of the Calgary -Edmonton region are be- ginning to raise hogs and to go in extensively for poultry and eggs.
