Yes, it is the nasty habit of pitching out of the back door a paiiful and dip ful now and then, of greasy water, and a handful of parings and the geb. eral waste of the kitchen, which breeds totei and bitltous diseases. The waste disappears for the most part in the soil but that is the key to the mis chief. Tha soil, gets full after a tiirie, and ferments and the hot sun breeds gases which surround and enter the bouse. This is true not only of the cheaper, poorer houses and careless families, but well-to-do, intelligent people have spots behind their houses saturated with slops. In populous towns no amount of supervision can prevent a great deal of filthy evii;but in the country towns slops should be carried out to trees and poured in small quantities here and there as a fertilizer. " Trees will take up a large quafatity of water, and be grateful for it. There must be simply constant in telligence in the disposal of waste. Farm Life.

THE NUWAB'S TREASURE Whenever I went io Iho Jumoo Gate and looked out upon the splendid palace which the old nuwab Tana had built. I felt liko leading a looting parly through its gardens to the underground treasure, and when I walked through the ShoiUtnpara. or Devil's Qmirler"' of tho city, and caught sight of the malicious eyes looking at mc from beneath bluek brows. I felt ray blood rim cold, for I believed that in U short timo wo would feel tho knives of theso dark faced demons in our vitals. A few days before the outbreak at Mcerttt where the Sepoys opened the rebellion by murdering tho whito Oilicers of the native regiment, tho old nuwab died. I don't know what hastened his death, but it was said that a cobra bit him on the arm. and sent him Out of tho world beforo ho could add his name to the black rascals who wcro about to render tho names of Cawnpore and Lucknow tho most famous as well as the darkest in history. Ono afternoon Case, a daro devil young fellow who had run away from homo to take cr.ico with us in tho Punjab, came to tUc unci proposed a scheme which could have found birth iu no other head than his. This was a secret vi?i! io tho palace and a trip to the underground region, provided wo could reach it. You don't proposo to steal any of the treasure, do you Jack," I asked. Not much; a. ring or so for tho girls at home and mat bo a charm for tny&clf when 1 shall have served out my time something the treasurer of tho nuwab' s household won't miss If you don't want to go. Tom I'll get Murray or Ilinlon." 1 told him that sooner than sec him entrust his secret to thoio fellows 1 would join him. and wo concluded to make the attempt that ory night. We met no one, or olsc the paiacc was do-erted. for it was rumored that the scr rants had killed themselves after tho death of their master, and keeping on. we camo at last to a Uoor set in the walL which Casey said was the way to tho underground vaults. in a short I me we were bect-nth the palace of the nuwab. and I leaned against a wall of solid .stone while my companion inspected tho map with a match in ono hand. Not a sound came to our ears, and I felt unfunny, for 1 knew that death would be our portion if we wore teen by tho merci less natives. This is the way." cried Casey. Don't you se3 the strange trail on tho floor here as if a serpent had worn H binooth by crawling along the lings? Ail wo have to do is to follow this trail -Ind we will open our eyes to the greatest treasure outside the royal palaces of Delhi Casey led rao on and on. down a passage which seemed endless, but at last we came to an open door so low that wj had to stoop to enter the chamber beyond. Here I straight ened and looked at my comrade. For tho life of mc I could not have found my way out if I had been com pelled to beat a retreat. Tho walls were dry. oven hot. as if some unseen fire raged beyond thorn, and when I touched them 1 turned to C.iscy and declared that wo were approaching tho infernal regions, but ho laughed and pushed on. At last we stood in a chamber which the torch of Casey revealed in a man ner that drew a startled cry from my throat Wo had reached the main treasure house of the nuwab! Gems irliltcro:! everywhere; they" lay on the floor in indiscriminate con fusion necklaces rings. Indian brooches, daggers with jeweled hilts and swords tipped with diamonds that were enough to have illuminated a great room. Hesides. there were drinking-cups adorned with c'h'gies of tho native gods and goJdesscs. 1'ra li ma. Siva. Vishnu the whole cata logue was there, and uot one seemed missing, down to the smallest and most insignificantdeity of tho dark skinned ntce. All at onco Casey's torch went out and we wcro left in utter darkness. The light was extinguished without apparent cause, and I felt my heart conic up in my throat as i thought of some devil magic connected with tho accident. Casey struck another match, but it would not burn, and in this way we exhausted every ono we had. throwing the'i on tho lloor with curses as wc deplored our failure. Wo must get back!' I cried. There is some power at work hero and wo will find ourselves in a trap unless wc make tracks for tho outer rooms."' My God! the door is closed and wc are already shut inl" Those words went to my heart liko a sentence of death. They fell from Casey's lips and 1 started toward him in tho dark, stumbling over a heap of regalia only to find his words true the door was shut and immovable! Suddenly my hand came in contact with something which sent a thrill of horror through every nerve. I did not have to think tho second' time to guess what I had touched in that btygian gloom for the contact was quite enough. I had simply laid my hand oil the body of a boa! For somo timo I leaned against the wall deprived of tho power of speech. I woudered where tho serpent was and how near to my body was his dis gusting head, and the folds which can crush a stag to doath in an instant My God! I have touched a snako! rang out the voice of Casey, and I felt him reel against mo in the dark. No wonder the old nuwao used to say that h"s treasure couldn't be looted. Ho has kept it guarded by serpents and we are in their coils!'' Wo stood togother. our hands touch ing and our hearts almost stilled by 1 terror. Shut up in si chamber with a lot of boas waa terrible enough, and when we knew that these monsters could seo in tho dark and wero noise less in their actions, our fears in creased until wo were fairly paralyzed with it ' We searched our pockets and I finally fished up from ono corner tho stub of a lucifer, which I handed to ray companion, who look it with a cry jf thankfulness. I held ray breath as he drew it along the wall and. at tho same time. 1 raised my cocked pistol eager to send a bullet through the head of the -juwab's treasure guard. Where would we find iho serpent and how j large waa he? The little flame leaping up seemed to shino like a star amid the gloom, but in an instant it went out. like the others had (lone. But that short period of time was enough. Looking down on us from a hold in the wall, with onn-half of his glisten ing and spotted body out, was a serpent of tho constrictor' speciesi large, terrible, and loathsome. The forked tongue darted in and out with in a few feet of our heads and tho littlo eyes shone like diamonds in their malignant gleo. I saw that the snake was banded with a gold band, which encircled the neck' just back of tho head, thus fix ing tho question of ownership, for the old nuwab had banded overy living thing in his palace; why not the slimy guard of tho treasure? When Casey saw tho serpent he gave ono unearthly shriok and stag gered down the walL leaving "me. I stood there with weakened limbs and cold sweat on my forehead. I felt as it were, tho hot fetid breath of the reptile on my cheeks, and when I recoiled as an act of self-preservation I thought I was falling down into some bottomless pit. Not a souud had followed Casey's shriek. I felt for another match, in tending in a moment of forced conr ajre to send n. bullet through the men acing head, but found nothing of the kind. I crept down tho wall to a corner, stooped and picked up some thing at my feet only to drop it. for it was a lizard, which stung mo cro I let it go. All at onco tho voice of Casey rang out calling on God to help him. 'J he sounds fro.o every drop of blood in my veins and I started over lo where he was to quiot him. when I recoiled, for I hoard tho breaking of bones and knew that the serpent had the poor fellow in tho fatal coils! Desperation at last brought action to my nerves and senses. 1 resolved to face the terror, to tako the initia tive and thus armed I crept down the wall with ono hand thrown out and iu the other one of tho short but razor-edged and bediamonded knives which 1 had picked up at my feet Whero was the slayer of poor Casoy? Seeing nothing in that gloom. I crept on and ou until all at onco my hand came In contact with something horribly smooth. It was tho body of the boa! My hand could not span tho girth of that terrible form, but I beliovod from the sudden wriggling that I had touched it no-ir tho head. In fact when 1 moved my hand again it came in contact with iho gold necklace, and them, with tho fury of demon despair and rovciigo. I hacked away with the Indian knife. I felt that blade go through flesh and bone with tho keenness of a kris. With ray blood at fever heat and my nostrils filled w th t';o suffocating odor which emanated from tne ser pent, I did not stop foi- a second, but cut away for life. I felt that everything depended on what I was at and I worked that knifo with all in m'ght. feeling tho folds give way. an. I the gold band at last fell to the lloor with a ring. 1 knew from the contortions of tho hujo body that the hca.l was oil, and stag -f ring back with a gasp I fell ag. the wall When I came back lo life I felt some air on my cheek, and then a streak of light which camo from a certain spot showed mo the interior of the place. I looked about mo an instant and then shut my eyes. In 0110 corner lay tho crushed body of Casey, and across the lloor. roach ing from wall to wall, stretched tho spotted length of tho terror of the nuwab's treasure-house, tho severed head tarec feet from tho trunk. My first thought was escape. Tho light came from tho hole in tho wall und I drew myself up to it, squeezed my body through and dropped on tho other side. There I found a door leading I knew not whither, but I did not stop to ask. I threaded the corridor, passed up to tho sunlight in the nu wab's palace, and fell headlong, un conscious on the street My escape from the palace was miraculous and for three months the surgeon" hsid a mad patient but after the plundering of tho palace by tho enraged soldiers in return for the massacre of t awn pore. I came b.tck to reason, and again took my place in the- ranks. Not for a long timo could I be in duced to speak of the adventure -in the subterranean chamber. The very horror of it seemed lo congeal my blood when I recurred to it and those who afterward went down to the chambers found no jewels at all but on tho lloor of tho scene of our foolish raid they discovered tho bones of Casey and near by tho lon.r skeleton of the nuwab's sentry. It was supposed that thoso left in chargo of the palace had removed the treasures as other treasures were re moved in a mysterious manner during the rebellion, and that the rich ."ewels and rogalia of the old nuwab wont to adorn the palace of some young rajah. I am quite sure that if all tho treasure had been poured out at my feet I would have taken nothing but the knife which saved mo from the serpent. In my iiaste to escape from that demon chamber I carried off nothing but the terror of it a terror which will never leave ma and which comes back with terrible distinctness every anniversary of that night in the nuwab's treasuro-house.

Quality n Xeessarj Part of Slop That SllMj taste Fodder Corn Pout try rieklnjrs ami IJouc iirtld Helps; Tfoiiirs In Care or iJs. In the pig we have iho prospective' hog. and on tho good qualities of (bo pig dopends fhe value of tho .hog. The indifferent care given to so many pigs is tbe great causo of tho poor quality of hogs put on the market every voar. With somo men tho trrcat opportunity to mako choice no-k has slipped away beforo they got ready to commence wors. hen they get ready, they have a poor stunted shoat to wor with. In every day work with a young pig the growth is so regular as to oe nam to perceive, xct ail caro.ul experiments prove tho fact that the young pig makes the greatest growth for amount of food as com pared with the well grown and de veloped hog. Judging by experience, hogs always appeared to us to mako tho fastest growth at from 175 to ".i0 pounds, and wo tvodld accept our judgment based on observat on as correct wore not tho well attested experimental facts against U3. In the light, of these I:iet3 the man that wants the uio3t there Is in them will com mence his care at the earliest possible moment. He will have a care as to the quality of tho animals coupled for the production of the cxpeclo.1 pigs, will have much care of tho dam whito carrying tho pigs, will know that sho has proper feed for her own perfect health and tho development of the embryo young. If such foods as produco muscular development arc in search and re quiro effort and motion to aecuro them, the development of tho sow will bo such a3 to secure tho proper develop ment o( tho young. The sow fatted on rich grain is apt to produce weak pigs while the sow kept on grass, routs and the masts of tho forest foods that sho inu-st gather by con tinual motion will produce strong, v'gorous pigs. Wc are too prone to feed the foods that are Iho mo3t con venient without giving due regard lo the demands of nature Seldom is due care taken to feed the pigs through the dam, beforo or after birth. The real worth of the dam growing the pigs to weaning time is not as a rule placed at as high an es'.imato as it should be. The sow is usually well fed till tho pigs begin lo eat, then the greater attention is given to the pigs, as shown by tho low condition the sows are often found in. Some will answer that they aro low iu flesh because they are good Bucklers. This is not always true, it is liard'y to be expected that sho wili hold up to the weight immediately after farrowing, yet it is not necessary that she should become a walking skeleton. Pigs well fed through the dam will mako pork as fast, or amount of food consumed, as they wsll for somo time after weaning when they consume all food for them selves; conse jucntly it. stands to rea son that the sow shotild be highly fed while suckling, and with proper foods. We havo ruined many valuablu litters by feeding too high, by being til loo big a hurry to have the pigs fat and plump. Our most serious mistakes were made by too high and rich feed ing when tho pigs wero three or four weeks o'.d. At that ago it was our aim to have the pigs commence eat ing, and we fed them r'c.i food in un stinted quantities. Under this treat ment the pigs would scour, acil in our haste to have them moving on. tho trouble would become chronic and often result in the total loss of the pigs. There is a limit to this forcing mai ler, and it is found in moving can tiously at Ibis age. The pigs may not please the eye so well in their plumpness but they should in their rangy appearance. Our custom now is to let the pigs commence eating corn as soon as they will, says the Ohio Farmer, by being with the sow? whi e they eat their ration of corn th.own to them on the cob. Wo do not feed corn meal, as wo have not a mill on tho farm and the toil and the expense of gong to the mill would overbalance the benefit obtained. Wc teach tho pigs to drink at threo to four wcoks old by giving skim milk or fresh milk, in troughs separate from the r dams, in convenient places where they will find it. From this drink we soon havo them drink slop. lor making slop wc use brown and white mid dlings, niicd in the proportions found in the grain before grinding Otertho required araouut of mid dlinirs we pour the skim niiik wo may have, along with tho kiloheu slops. Just now wo have thirty-nine head of pigs that arc well started to eating. Fc this number we pour in the trough one-half bushel of middlings, and over this pour from four io six gallons cf bkim milk and kichen slops. The pigs are allowed at once to cat what they want I" feeding in this way Iherc is no risk from sour slop as the kitchen tlops used accu mulate between feeding times. We ouly feed twice a day. It is conveni ent to fee.1 in this way. as tho quan tity of siop accumulated is su.'l'cient and more, to meet the wants of the pigi and it saves the trouble of mix ing the slop in a tub or barrel. When Ihcv require mare Ii-cd than tho accumulated slop will ! moisten properly, we will have to oring into use the sloplub and use water, mixing at ono time for tho no t When we have the feed mi ed in the troughs, we throw on the feed ing grounds a basket of car corn. When we notico that tho pigs havo oaten what slop they want and go to , the corn, wc turn the dams lo the ! troughs and let them cleanup. If we ' allowed the remnant to remain in the ' trough from one feeding lime to an- i other, that the pigs cou.d go to it sit will, wo would soon have an awful ' lot nilmg with scours and thumps: as ?i ' . hnvn no trmililp- 'Ihe nirs have two full and satisfying rations . per day. and aro always ready for I their feed at feeding lime. Tho cas- ual observer concludes that slop is slop to the pig. regardless of quality. The practical feeder knows" by the observed thrif.iness i of the pigs, that quality is what the -trs must havo in slop. Stale and ! w ... -- ----- i--o- sour slop works rain. What wo mean . hv stalft is that remaining in the ' troughs from one feed lo another, j While it may appear that pu:s thrive ; best on what may be termed sour slop and that they have sharper ap- ' petitcs. it is uo doubt safest to feed it ! sweet. If a practice is made of feed- ' ing it sour the danger is too great in ! feeding sometimes too sour, it is t well ior tne iceuer to get an tne in- formation possible from other jiracti- , cil feeders But practice alone vrill mako a successful feeder. Judgment as to amount to feed aud the time and manner of feeding, only becomes a safe guide from practical experience. Tiutt ."-:tr-ji To-.Ip. The 'rsbeopy tasto" of mutton does ot come from contact with the wool in skinning or from tardiness m dis embowling" ihe animal; it is of far deeper origin.

It is a very. very, very common thing for the farmer to lose a hundred dollars ia August because he didn't havo tho sweet corn patcli. Cows allowed lo dry up then, stay dry. It is uot merely ono month's milk lost: it is threo or four months' milk. "Dairying don't pay." Shades of Davy Crockett! What kind of dairying are you doing? Tho cows drop their calves in the spring just as the prico of butter drops to the lowest notch and you dry them up jUs,t as it begins to raise to a respectable prico. Then you keep your dry cows all tho time butter is high, getting no returns, and when butter comes down you are ready to commence business again. Now tome juicy, nutritious feed when pastures fail lo keep them flush until fall feed comes on preserve.--, the milk flow, but without th.s they shrink in milk and all the fall feed in tho country cannot got them back to a good mess of milk again. This is why wo errow sweet corn and recommend it to others. Rural Life. r-Js f rit:it; 'i'lipr. The tops of potatoes after the crop is dug contain much plant food, and as they are mostly rotted down to dust in fail and winter, this plant food is easily available. They should not be taKen to tho barnyard and com posted with manure as was once ad vised. Thoy rot readily enough with out composting, and mixing with ma nure only preserves the spores of the di.-oaoe. which may otherwise bo car ried over for tiro injury of the suc ceeding potato crops. I'robi.b'.y tho bcht use that can be made of pot'tto lopa is to save them free from weed-, and use as mulch for strawberry beds. Iloro they rot cover the land lightly whilo it needs i-ovcring. and do not havo to bo raked out of the way iu spring, as straw often does when it hits been used as winter mulch.
