There is no poisou in the hog's teeth as there is in the fangs of a poisonous snake. It is rather the poison which comes from the saliva, as the hog is a very indiscriminate feeler and not at all cleauly. When a hog is made angry the amount of this saliva ia greatly increased, nud the danger is greater. Even a alight contusion from a hog's tooth should be prompt ly washed out with some antiseptic. Dilute carbolic, acid, one part of the acid to 2000 of water, is good and al ways a reliable antiseptic. Home should always be kept where it can be handily procured, to put oa cuts or outside injuries received on any part of the body. It will greatly hasten their healing. Cost ot KIrIi Ilred roultry. Convinoed that he should follow the advice of those who know bow to im prove the flock of fowls, the farmer is naturally anxious to know what the cost of new blood will be. If the flock is the ordinary farm stock, mainly mongrels, and the grade is to be raised chiefly from egg production, new blood of a dollar a head will be good enough. If the stock already on hand is of one breed and of fairly good quality, and the new blood ia desired to add to the size of eggs or to increase egg production or size of coming chicks, then stock at four or even Bve dollars a head is none too good. If fancy fowls are wanted, bred to the standard, then he must expect to pay anywhere from ten dollars up per bird. But where you can get stock which will add to the value of that you already have. If increased egg production is wanted, buy front breeders who are willing to guarantee that their stock is all tbey claim for it iu the matter of egg production. If weigut and markings are desired, buy from those making a specialty of these points. Last, but by no means least, not be fouled by the claim that north ern bred stock is necessary to add value to southorn flocks, or vice versa. It is ugreed that certain seods north ern grown are best for southern plant ing, but the claim will not hold good water with poultry. Buy whore you can get the best value for your money and the nearer home the better, other things being equal. Atlauta Journal. Lima as at Fertiliser. Those who believe that Ume is necessary as a fertilizer, and their opinions are'not based upon actual tests of the soil, they would do well to test it. Htir np four or five touspoon fuls of the soil with enough water to make a thick paste. Allow it to stand fifteen minutes. Then part the soil with a knife blade and insert one end ot a strip of distinctly blue litmus paper (to be had at any apothecary store), pressing the soil about the pa per. After five minutes romove the paper carefully in order not to tear it and rinse quiokly with water. If the bine eolor has disappeared and a red one taken its plaoe, the need of lime is probable. The fingers should never be to ached to the end of the paper to be inserted in tho soil, for they alone will redden it intensely. " It would also jt well to test as fol lows: Take two glasses, place three teaspoonfuls of soiUa oaoh and add water till half full; to one glass add two teaspoonfuls of ammonia waler, to be obtained of any druggist, stir both thoroughly and again five minutes later. Allow thera to settle and it the one to which ammonia was added gives a black inky looking liquid, and the other Bottles out nearly clear, farther evidence of the need of time is given. The first test should be relied npon if but one is nsed, bat if the seooud agrees withHho first, the case is so muoh the more certain. Where lime is lacking, beet leaves often turn red and many of the young plants die; lettuce plants also often do the same. On light, sandy soil from 1000 to 2000 pounds of air-slaked lime may be applied on tho furrows and harrowed in, preferably in the autumn. Ou heavier soil from one to two tons per sore may be nsed in this manner. On heavy and moist soils, there is less danger from spring applications than on light ones. If air-slaked lime is not to be had, ordipary builders' lime will answer, only the quantity may be reduced in that case to about two thirds the amount ' Plaoe the lumps in piles of forty to fifty pounds each and oover with moist soil. Id a few days it will be sufficiently slaked so that it can be spread with a shovel. Harrow or odltivate in the lime atonoe. Ii there are any lumps, repeat the har rowing or cultivating after two or three days, when they will .have slaked so that the lime can be mixed with the soil. If the land is very dry, sprinkle eaeh pile with about half a pail of water before covering it with soil. Twice as muoh of wood ashes as of air slaked lime, will also answer. Potatoes planted on limed land should be treated with corrosive sub limate solution or formalin to prevent "soab." Watermelons should, if pos sible, be planted on unlimed laud, or where the lima has been applied two or three years .previously. American Agriculturist. , j . eURIOUt, jilONUMENT. Old Iron Anvil with Bladga Mammas on Top One ot the queerest tombstones ever designed to mark the grave ot a man Is now on exhibition at the ship hard ware store ot William H. Whiting A Co., on the northwest corner of Pratt and South streets, says the Baltimore News. It Is an old Iron anvil, with a sledge hammer laid oa top of It, and wilt mark the last resting place of John O. Angelo, nn 84-year-old ship smith of Pocomoke City, Md. Angelo was born at Woodbury, N. J., on Aug. 2, 181 5, and began bis apprenticeship as a blacksmith on June 28, 1828. When he had served out his apprenticeship and reached the age of 21 yoara his employer presented him with the an vil and hammer on which he bad done hla first work. He has used It contin ually ever since. A few weeks ago he conceived the Idea of using It aa his tombstone, so he made an Iron handle for the old hammer and fastened It with a metal peg to tho top ot the anvil. He also attached three links to the handle of the hammer, which Is supposed to Indicate that he Is an Odd Fellow. He then sent tho anvil and Its attachment to the Whiting firm to galvanize, In order that It inlRht not be rusted away by exposure to the weather over his grave. It was a dim cult task, and It had to be dipped In a mass of seventy tons of molten sine before It was successfully accomplish ed. He wrote to the firm not to spare any expense to make a good Job of It, but they will make no charge for their work. Angela Is still working every day for two shipyards at Pocomoke City and Is as hale as the youngest of the men about the yards. He Is a skil ful workman, and although bent with age, he wields a heavy sledge with power and dexterity. Ill llobaonlsed tho Maids.

There Is comfort In the knowledge that so many forms of Illness are not due to any aetual disease, but simply to a constipated condition of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, promptly removes. That Is why It Is the only semedy with millions of families, and Is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact that It Is the only remedy which promises Internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which It acts. It la, therefore, all-Important, In order to get Its beneficial effects, to note when you purchase that you have the genuine article, which Is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only.

Syrup of Figs, which It manufactures, confirms the state ment, which the company freely makes, that the best of remedies only should be used when needed by the human system.
