AGRICULTURAL Raising Hogs for Market. •In raising bogs for market, we should have a definite object in YieW. This objeot ehould be to produce the hog that will realize the highest price in the market at the least eost for pro - deletion. It yOur raarket requires heavy, fat hogs, the I3erlishire1 Poland , - China, and CheSter White are suit- able. As a rule, the Shorter breeds of hogs can be produoeci at less cost than the longer-sided,fellows. The greeter tiae distance the extremities are front the heart, the greater will be the food required to maintain the animal in life. • • In selecting the breed, see that the znale animal has a good pedigree,' that he is a typical animal of the breed he represents, that he is descended from animals that have been, in the habit of prociaoing large litters, and that he is well developed for his age. The • sow should be seleoted for rapid, de- • velopment, regular breeding, producing • large litters, and. gentle dieposition. • The brood, sow should be retained for several years, •as clad. sows Produce stronger pigs. She should be allowed to raise two litters annually. If we wisla to have vigorous, healthy young pigs the brood sows should be carefully fed. During the sunnner there is no trouble, as the sow usually has suf- ficient variety in her food.' With the early spring pigs there is often heavy loss from the fact that the sows are given too concentrated a food and not sufficient variety. No one variety of grain contains all the elements of ani- mal life in proper proportion. Many farmers feed their brood sows largely on' peas during the winter, with the result that the young pigs are flabby and weak, and very often live, but a few hours. Milk, roots and oat chops, bran or shorts, with access to earth or sods, Make a welt -balanced ration, and should give good. results if the sow has exercise daily. The young pigs require a warm, dry, pen, and should be attended. to very closely dur- ing the first few hours to see that all, are suckled and that none are chilled. Cut straw or chaff makes the best bed- ding, and only a limited, quantity of it should- be used at first. Poles should be arranged around the walls to prevent the little fellows from be - ing squeezed by the dam. When a week old they should be encouraged to take some exercise on fine* days. This makes them stronger and, prevents them from becoming too fat internally. Castration should be performed when the pigs are six to eight days old. When six weeks old they should be weaned, which is best done by remov- ingall at one time and returning them again after twelve hours, and again after twenty-four hours. • This makes a gradual change, and is much easier .on the dam. The little fellows should average from twenty-five to thirty pounds at this age, and if they have been taught to eat previous to wean, ing they should continue to grow as though nothing unusual had happened. Milk with oat chop and. roots -makes the best ration we have tried for young pigs. If the oat hulls are removed by a sieve for the first few days, they ,will eat the food up clean. The trough should ' always be cleaned out before giving the next meal. We find. it an advantage to feed the young pigs four times daily until they are at least ten weeks old.; after that age three meals daily are sufficient. Regular feeding is just as important with pigs as with any of our farm animals. At ten weeks old they should. average from forty to fifty pounds, and after that age, if properly fed, should increase from one and. one-half to two pounds' daily. For winter feeding we find that about four dines the quantity of roots by weight mixed with chopped grain give -s us the best results. The grain is chopped fine and mixed with pulped roots, and the whole soaked for twelve hours before being fed. Salt is added at the rate of one ounce for every 1,000 minds of live pork daily. When milk is plentiful we have more rapid growth and the pigs keep health- ier and more vigorous. In his natural state tile pig swallows considerable earth daily, and this should always be provided for.winter feeding. To have the best results the pens should be cleaned out regularly, as the pigs rest contented in a dry, clean pen, and are always on the move when the P805 are wet. The troughs should be arranged so that each pig will have an equal thanc,e, A pole along the center of the trough to prevent them from putting their feet at, 'eaves a large percentage of the foed. In sum- mer, feeding clover or green peas will take the place of roots, and if milk is plentiful very little grain is required. It should be our aim to force the pige to mature as early as possible. The younger the pigs are when they, ar- rive at market weights, the greater, will be the profit. The food of main- tenance increases with the size ot the hog, while the daily average gain is just the reverse. From careful ex- periments extending over three years' feeding, we have ascertained that a newly -weaned pig weighing from twenty-five to thirty pounds will in- orease in weight at a cost of 2 1-2 cents Per pound. When tea weeks old and weighing fifty pounds it will cost - 3 •petits per pound of increase. - At fif- teen weeks and an average weight of 100 pounds, the Cost of procluetion will rise to 4 cents per pound of increase, and there is a corresponding inbrease of cost of production as the pig gets older and heavier. These orperiments lead to the conclusioir that we should make the average daily gain as great as possible, and also that when pork is selling at low prices we should Sell the hogs at lighter weights. Hogs weighing from 160 up to 200 pounds have taken the top pries during the past two years. Thee can be pro- duced at an average cosi, of e1-2 mute per pound live NVOlght, . Our experience is that buyers Make too great 8 difference in the price of pork lite weight and dressed weight. We have been able to reelize the best prices by selling the pork dressed. Buy- ers meet with so many producers volio have their hogs overfed when SeUrn live weight, that they reckoe ona higher percentage of offal, and thie dis- oriminates on the honest producer. With Berkshire pigs weighing trout 160 pounds and up to 200 pounde, wts find a different% of from 17 to 20 per tent, between dressed and live weights, With these data you can very soon estimate which way it will pay you best to seli. te. TIUIB X Save the Manure. The Preeervation of the eaanure Mede on feeding farms during the winter eeason is of great impoetanee if our farms are to be •kept anyvaliere near their original fertility, "'With sheep as with other stock kept on the farm oee of the inaportant items a become iS the manure, While on pasturage this will be distributed • more evenly over the field than with any ether elaes a stook" says NVool Markets and Sheep. " As a fertilizer sheep Mari- ure is the next richest of any usually secured on the •farm, poultry manure, is properly managed, being considered the best. As with all animal fertil- isers much depends upon the manage- ment as to the quality*, Wherever it becomes necessary at any time to com- mence sheltering the saving a the leaeause should. begin, With anything like fair mauageneent the manure se- cured from any class of stoat ought to be suffieient to pay for the labor arid care required to feed and menage. One important item iu the management, when it is an item to save the manure, is plenty of bedding. When stook of any kind. is (*Willed, whether in feed lots or under shelter, sufficient bed- ding should always be provided to ab- sorb and retain all of the liquid void- ings. •With sheep this is as impor- tant as with any other stock.. One of the best plans of management with sheep in the fall and through a good part of the winter is to shelter at nigbt, and on cold or stormy days, and al- low them to run out every day that the weather will permit, • In supplying bedding not only is it possible to re- tain all of the liquid voidings and in this way increase the quantity of man- ure, but it will add to the comforts of the sheep, keeping them warmer and cleaner. There es no especial advant- age in using more bedding than is ne- cessary to obtain tee liquid voidings and to keep the stook clean, as more than this is adding to the quantity and lowering thequality. One important item in keeping sheep healthy In win- ter is to keep dry, not only over head, but under foot and by using sufficient bedding. This Gan be done to a good advantage if the roof of the shelter is tight. Where a fair-sized stock of sheep is kept with good management, a considerable quantity of manure can be secured and manure is one of the four 'possible sources of income with sheep, the other three being wool, lambs and mutton, and being an income it is an item to make the most out of it possible." ' Feeding Young Stock. The question of feeding young cat- tle should have serial:1s attention dur- ing the winter mouths. We wish right here to condemn the practice of feed- ing so much corn to growing stock. Only a very ,srnall amount of corn should be included in the daily ration df calves, especially at this time when oats and oil meal are so cheap. Feed liberally. Far bettor to err on the liberal side in feeding youngstook than to have them stunted and poor in the spring, as half a' year may easily be lost fer want of a bit of extra atten- tion during the winter, If you have acilities for it the linseed meal might be mixed with boiling water and pour- ed over a heap of chaffed hay, with vhich the ground oats had been pre- viously mixed. Tf not, mix it with he meal and gide in two feeds daily, eking care to let them havea plenty of water. Young stook are very often netted by being turned out and allow - 31 to stand starving about till it suits he herdsman to let them in. Of course, if there is no water in the erns they raust be let out, but in hat case we would provide plenty of rough room, so that all could get a drink at once, or nearly so, and then ring them in as soon as satisfied. If 11 their food is dry they should have he chance of water twice daily. Re- member there is a scarcity of stock in he country, therefore it Is sure to be ear next spring, and, whether to sell r keep, is worth rearing well. Also ceding stuffs are abnormally cheap, and ertamly cannot be put to better pur- ose. a 0 WHAT BECOMES- OF THEM.? People Who Mysteriously Misuppear and Who, Cannot be Traced. Have we a record of people who mys- teriously disappear and are never heard of? said a well known private detective to the writer: Why, we have Many such cases. Sometimes foul play, or sui- cide, or accident is the cause. Only the other day the relatives of a well-known gentleman visited us to obtain our help in the search for their eonnection, 'who had mysteriously vanished bile' night. What the total nuralaer of people who vanish from sight in this way every year raa3r be I don't know, but no doubt the police could tell you. At any rate, we had at least twenty during the last few months. Sometimes we are suc- cessful in finding the rueaway or mis- sing person; at other times no trace can be discovered, or the remains may be found. You see, the means of disap- pearing are go easy that the police or private detectives have frequently no evidence to work upon. A reward of $500 was offered for the recovery of the body, of et well,knowngentlenean, much reepected in commer- cial circles. His businesa was in a satis- factory condition, his relations and his family were of the best, mad altogether he was not the. man to disappear. But he did. He told his family that he was • going to, Boston, but so far as we know, he never got there.Eirerybddy was on the qui vivo; seaports were watched, everything that could be done was done, but it was of on avail The gentleman had vanished. completely. • Lcusiness affairs cause many a man to disappear mysteriously. Bad trade: a mistake in stmne commeicial tratisac- tion ; gambling on the stook exchange, necessitating the abstraction of some of his employer's cash, are au possible. Many a man who is lost to this eountry, and in the minds of his relatives dead, is at this present moment enjoying ill- enrned money in Spain or South Am - emit, where extradition lans are often of no ii,vail.

TER IN.BS THE lion The blather's Influeneen "The hand that rocks the eradle rules the world," is as trlie today 08 •, it was one thousand years ago. Prom lanes immemorial poets hart sung of Mothers' love aud =there' influence, and yet mothers aro slow to Appreciate the immense truth of it, mother's charge is a holy one; it is in her power to make or mar it. A great' man said, "AIX that 1 am my mother made me," • What memories he must have had of her—a sweet, gentle mother, strict in discipline, yet ruling all with love, „lbw, often have mothers seen pro- perisities in their thildrea, when YOurigt that have brought to them later iti life sorrow- and shame? Yet when the child did what was wrong the mother would laugh and call it "cute," A lit- • tle boy, not more than three years old, very bright for Itis age, had learned OU the street to swear horribly. In his home he Was accounted remarkably smart, and the disgraceful habit grew upon the misguided aim until he could scarcely say a sentence unaecompanied by an oath. Is this little oue to blame? No, it is the mother's shame. Row is the world to be redeemed from its ers 'rote and vices with such mothers? Many criminals who are inmates of dreary prisons have their mothers to thault for what they are. It must be an awful thought for a mother to know that through her carelessness or indifference her child has turned into the wrong path. If a child is provid- ed. with plenty to eat and wear, many believe their duty done. As far as a higher life or morals are concerned, they might as well have beeu born any- thing bat human creatures, A mother's love should not blind her M regard to her children's faults. We all know that every one has faults —00 000 is perfect, and to rectify them while it can be done, will effect the future destiny of her ehild. Cross words and punishments are not always essen- tial to correction. Example is a won- derful teacher. Mother e would do well to set a high standard and thus draw their children with them. It is a poor man indeed, whose own mother has not made all mothers to be venerated by him. The Use of' the Chafing Dish. The chafing disl is a boon to the housekeeper., In no other way can " left -overs " be made so appetizing, while -for Sunday night tea oe when un- expected company drops in, it will be found to fill a long -felt want, quickly transforming an extremely plain, mea- ger meal into a delicious little collation. The raere fact that the feed is prepar- ed before one seems to give zest. In the evening, too, the young folks de- light to entertain their friends by stewing oysters, concocting a Welsh rabbit or even scrambling a few eggs over the alcohol lamp. :Indeed, thaf- ing dish parties are exceedingly popu- lar. A chafing dish shoulcl come within the means of every purse, as they are of every style and grade, from tin one to the exPensive silver dishes, or those of hard metal silver soldered. The medium priced, nickel -plated ones are the most extensively used. The cost of the alcohol might prove an ob- jection to some, but very little is neces- sary, an experteclainaing that he has cooked ten recipes on less than a pint of fluid, while if wood alcohol be em- ployed. the expense is reduced to a tri- fle. This retails for 25c a quart, about a quarter the price of the purer spirit, and burns as well, the only objection being an etherish odor, while care should be taken not to inhale the fumes more than is necessary. Here are a few of the dainty dishes which can be readily prepared on the table in full sight of the family or guests: Creamed Codfish.—Por this simple but very nice dish use 1-2 pint of salt codfish, picked up, 1 tablespoonful of flour, 2 tablespoonfuls butter, a little pepper and a gill of cream. Melt the butter in the cutlet dish set within the hot water pan, blend with it the flour, and then while staring constant - add the fish, which should previous- ly ha-ve been soaked for an hour in te- pid water. Lastly pour in the cream, slightly pepper and allow i6 to simmer 10 minutes, stirring all the time. Lobster is delicious prepared in •the same manner, but should be simply brought to the boiling point. Omelettes, Plain or with Jelly; Ham or Cheese.—For a plain omelette take 4 eggs, 1 teacupful of butter and 4 tablespoonfuls of water with seasoning to taste. Allow the butter to get very hot, in the chafing dish and then pour In the eggs, thoroughly beaten, the whiles and yalks separately and well whipped up with the mulk. When done, rail 3M edge quickly over until all rolled up. If a fancy omelette is desired, before folding spread. it with grape or currant jelly, with finely chop- ped. ham or with grated cheese. Welsh Rabbit.—Following it Mrs. Lincoln's recipe, one of the few which do not call for beer or ale, Take 1-4 lb of rich cream cheese, cup cream or milk, 1 teaspoonful mustard, 1-2 tea- spoonful salt, a few grains of cayenne pepper, 1 egg, 1 teaspoonful butter, 4 slices toast. Break the cheese in small pieces, or if hard, grate it. Put, it with the milk in the chafing dish. Toast the bread and keep it hot. Mix the mus- tard, salt and pepper ; add the egg and beat ,well. When the cheese is melted stir in the egg and hueter and cook two rainntes or 00311 13 thickens a lit- tle, but do not let it curdle. Pour it over the toast. These are but a few of the many ap- petizing dishes that can be prepared on the convenient little cooking appar- atus. Beefsteak, chops, fish can all be cooked on it to perfection, and such delicacies as sweet breads, shadroe,and arogs' legs are better thus done than i0 any other manner, while scraps of ham, smoked beef, a. little left-ovet corn or tomatoesi—indeed almost any- thing,—will by means of the ehafing dish and in. the hands of a skillful man or woman come out delicions,with no hint of being a makeshift.

Bar silver is firmer in London with sales at 311-831. per ounce. The net earnings for Canadian Paci- fic for the month of September show an increase of $71,339. Money continues easy in Toronto, the rates for call loans being 4 to 4 1-2. Prime commercial paper is discounted at 6 to 6 1-2 per cent. The hide market is in a demoralized state. Toronto dealers on Monday re- duced the prices of green 1-2c., and No. 1 are now quoted at 6 1-2. There is a better demand for Mer- chants' Bank stock, as well as for Com- merce, these issues now selling at the highest prices for months. Wheat is very firm at Ontario points. This is altogether owing to the tact that farmers refuse to sell in spite of higher markets than elsewhere. _Some Toronto grain dealers. are buying Chi- cago wheat instead of Ontario at this season as it is ninth the cheapest. The visible supply of wheat in the United States and Canada increased 4 1-4 millions last week, and the total is now 50,486,000 bushels as against 78,- 274,000 a year ago, and. 69,345,000 two years ago. The amount ma passage to Europe is 24,960,000 bushels, as against 25,280,000 bushels a year ago. The amount of wheat in store at Fort William is gradually increasing and now is 2,076,480 bushels. An extra fleet of steamers will be put on to take some of the grain east, as a great portion of the elevator capacity at Fort William will be required to hold what is already stored in smaller elevators west of Winnipeg. A new banking law came into effect in New York state on Nov. 183. 13 provides that no officer, director, clerk, or agent of a bank can borrow money from the bank with whieh he is connect- ed without the consent of the board of directors, and, it provides that hereafter no savings bank shall be located in the same room or any rooms communicating with a discount bank. It compels the complete paying in of the capital stock of a bank before it shall begin business. It forbids a majority of the board of trustees of any savings bank 'to belong to the board of directors of any discount bank. From Montreal we hear that the fine open fall weather is not wholly favor- able to the dry goods trade. Country stocks are reported as not being very much broken into and sorting orders are only moderate, travelers, however, are selling some fair bills of spring goods. City retail trade has show e some an- prevement the last week or so. Several mils have given notice of advances in hosiery, underwear, flannels, pillow cot- ton, and bleached and unbleached sheet - Inge. In groceries there is a good de- mand for currants andraisins, but, the market at the moment is bare of stock, and neav supplies on direct vessels now due are anxiously looked for. Quite an advance is reported in both lines. Green hides are down another cent this week, and for leather, which continues dull, easier prices prevail. The improvement in wool is well held, and stooks of for - 418 quite moderate, It considerable prpportion of a eargo from the Cape has betin sold to advantage to American buyers. Heavymetals, though not very i active, show ncreasing strength in several lines, notably black and galvan- ized sheets. Glass is advanced. Ship- ments of obsess have been heavy and the advanced values are fairly held. Theenitter market shows much activity and a further gain for the week of a cern., to a cent and a hall on fine cream- ery. The long continued lack of rain is becoming a serious matter in the coun- try, fermers in many eeceions being unable to do their fall plowing owing to the great dryness. The wholesale trade at Toronto is fairly active, the orders of a sorting - up character being fairly numerous. The tone of the dry goods and hardware markets is strongest with advances in prices fully in.aintabied. The outlook is considered promising, with stocks of merchandise in the country within bounds. Betail merchants contimie 36 buy eautieuely, and are thus enabled. the better to meet mettiring obligations.

The live etock trade this year is keeping well ohm4 of last year's trade. The shipmeats from the port of Mont- real up till the first of November were such as to show bighly seeisfaelotar progress. UP to that date 171,252 sheep - were sent abroad, whereas up to the same date last year the exportatione under this head aggregated 119,341. Last year was a phenomenal year, for in 1893, up till .November only, 1,781 , sheep had been exported, but large as it was the reeord of 1894 is being out- done. The ;rattle trade shows an im- provement also, though not so great. This season's shipments of cattle have , aggregated 88,460, whereas up till this date last year we sent abroad 79,390, and up to the same date in 1893 we exported 80,495. The exportation of horses, however, shows the most strik- • ing expansion. Already we have ex- ported 11,896 horses this iyear, as against 5,095 up till 'Wail date in 1894, and 1,516 in 1893.
