Southern Pork Raising.
The Commissioner: of Agriculture oi
Georgia in his excellent Manual on the
Hog, discusses the question or. Southern
Pork in an able manner. While his re*
marks are designed more particularly foe
the^pteteM C^oma, still they may apply'
more or less to ail the Southern States.
* The bog is a native of the warm or
more temperate regions of the earth.
All the animals of the order to which
the hog belongs are natives of warm cli
raates, 'arid none are found in modern
times as far North as the hog. The
elephant, rhinoceros, and- hippopotamus
belong to this order. The hog therefore
. finds a eongenial honte at the South.
^ In every instance of decided improve*
. ment which has resulted in the establish?
ment of a valuable breed, it has been
the result of a cross of the small, early
maturing, Southern breeds upon the
coarse breeds of more Northern climates;.
The . Berkshire, . -Essex and Poland t
China-rthe Ufi?eg~staridaid breeds of the
presentdayj-3alloriginated in this W8y.
?nyT?f tfiew Breeds, introduced Tnto'the
South, and properly cared for, will im?
prove rather thahr-deteriorate.
Apart from all 'theoretical^ considera?
tions, the fact of the entire adaptability,
of our climate to the hog has been dem?
onstrated. In 1860, one fifteenth of ail
the bogs in the United States were in
Georgia* and during the late war, she
not only feu Bex.population, but furnished
millions of pounds of bacon to theaxnjy;
of the Confederacy.
In the rriuch larger -portion of the
South the ground seldom freezes, and
when it doe8^|?f??ds only ??^tt?h.?r
two in- ^derpth,- -aid rarely con tiou es so
during the day. The hog is furnished
by the Creator with a snout formed for
the purpose. of- corning up the soil in
v search of food, both animal and vegeta?
ble. There,,are few days in the. year
when the ground is riot in a condition to
be penetrated by this snout in search of
?^?i^ojBiiJ?pj??jtj^;ap, mild. that,
the rye or barley, sown early in the fall,
furnish, during the winter months, , the
green food so necessary for health and

;'night, while they luxuriate, in green paa-t
tores of tye or -barley, ? of in-gathering1
rich nuts from the fragrant, upturned,
soil during the day.. Notwithstanding'
5 the fact that Georgia was, in I860; so
largely a planting State, she ranked
x seventh -in- tha-'nambo of hogs'-owned,*
and even in 1870, after: the loss of the
-war, she ranked ninth, notwithstanding
the most flagrant neglect on the part of
; the farmers, under the . paralyzing influ?
ence of their losses occasioned by, the
resnria ^ the war, - arid the complete
tfiacHg^izalfcn of oatefttirailar^rsysteau
With, the same care and attention
bestowed now that was -given -to .raising
- hogs in 1860, Georgia need^ot purchase
a pound of pork frorrr- other States. <
Indeed, it can be clearly demonstrated
that pork. can be raised as cheaply in.
Georgia as any State" in the. Xjpipn
though at the present time it is' estima?
ted that about ten million dollars are
annually expended principally by the
farmers and farm laborers for pork, lard
and bacon imported from the West.
.. ;yTt has been shown already. that Geor?
gia is in the isothermal belt which passes
through the; natural habitat of the hog;
that previous tb, and daring the late
war, an abundant supply for home con?
sumption was raised in the State. It was
not only raised, but cared arid preserved
on the farm.during the year without dif?
ficulty. Hams, unsurpassed in quality
that were two years old, raised and cured
in Georgia, were of no uncommon occur?
rence. As far as climate is concerned,
the , there is no difficulty either in rais?
ing, curing, or keeping bacon. .... .
Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Tennessee
and Kentucky are the largest producers
of pork, according to the last census. -
Clover and Indian corn are almost ex?
clusively relied upon for the support arid
fattening of hogs in these States, aided
only by the gleanings of small grain,
harvest fields. We have in Georgia all
; these resources, besides a number of other
cheaper crops which furnish excellent
food}; I which ihe hogs gather from the
"fields. The sweet potato, Sold pea,
ground pea, chufa, etc., produce large
;' crops per acre, at very small cost. A
variety of fruits, also, such as plums,
'blackberries and mulberries, which grow
spontaneously, besides thei peach and
apple are valuable auxiliaries.: A very
small quantity of corn is needed daring
the growth of the hog, and while fatten?
ing, only enough just before butchering
to harden the'flesh.
In order to secure proper attention to
-the production of any commodity, there
most be-a-reosonabie demand for it when
produced/ That there is such a demand
in-Gerirgra isshowrf^y thV^ast'^qaanti-^
tfes annually imported from -other.
States:- -Pork^or bacon is almost the
exclusive animal food of'"the negro
population, and constitutes the principal
source of supply for the tables of the
whites, especially in the rural, districts of
;^*8tafe.f^M$i\^\\WX >'?'?"
". As far as the country is concerned,
therefore, Georgia possesses every neceo
: sary requisite for the cheap, production of >
pork Of thbvery best quality, the only
difficulties resting with the people, who
tick neither the energy nor intelligence
required for utilizing the natural advan?
tages of climate and soil, with which they
are surrounded. The great difficulty
lies in the adoption of a mistaken policy,
.under the influence of the high price
which cotton commanded after the late
war, and the disorganized, migratory
character of free negro labor. The idea
that it was economy to produce cotton
almost to the exclusion of other farm pro?
ducts, relying upon the former to pur?
chase supplies, took possession .of the
people ten years ago, while high prices
prevailed, and a system of cropping on.
shares and. renting was adopted, which
has been difficult to discard. Under this
system, rotation of crops, in separate in
closures, became almost impossible, and
consequently the utilization of pastures
by stock impracticable. Again, in the
usual contracts with laborers, the latter
boarded themselves, and consequently the
landlord did not feel the necessity of pro?
ducing more pork than enough to supply
his own family. These circumstances,
combined with others, have tended to
diminish the production of pork in Geor?
gia for the last ten years, but the price of
cotton having fallen to very low figures,
it can no longer be relied open to pur?
chase supplies, and hence farmers are
endeavoring to shake off their habits of
speculative; farming, and, as rapidly as
possible, preparing to make tbeir farms
self-supporting.
? Living in North Beaver township,
this County, is a man named Wilson, who
has a little daughter aged two years aud
which was born without ears. On one
side of the face there was no sign of an
outward ear, the side being perfectly
smooth, while on the other side there was
a little cartilege, but it had grown over
the canal. The other organs of the child
were perfect, with the exception of the
jaw, which was badly shaped. On Sun?
day the physicians performed the difficult
operation of making an opening, and
found a perfect inner ear by* cutting
through the integument to the bony
opening into the inner ear. Tbey then
formed as perfect an outer ear as possible
from the.flesh and the little one is able to
hear perfectly,?iVewccwtfe (Pa.) Newa.
A Bemarkable War Belle.
Philadelphia, October 17.?That
hair grows upon the human body after
death has been a theory held by many
S-ominent physicians, but discredited by I
e profession generally. Experts who
follow: theonelanchory pursuit of laying,
oat and'dressing the dead hold in some
contempt this professional opinion, and
declare that cases of hair growth after
death are frequent, and even so palpable
that even a novice would hot fail to -de?
tect them.
A very curious relic is in the posession
of a Pottsville book-keeper, a veteran of
the late war, was examined by several'
Philadelphia doctors recently, and ap?
pears to furnish conclusive proof that
death does not always put an end to the,
growth of hair upon portions of'the
human body, even after the lapse of many
years. ' Henry Matthews was a good boI
dier during the war, and was at the front
in some of the, hottest engagements of
that great struggle. As a member of
Company H, of the F?rfy-eighth~Tennr
jylvania Volunteers, he was in the fight
.MhEJoW Harbor; -OnyMay 26,1864, he
Prfas^struck down- byNarbullet, which en
[ Lered.-- the . back" .part of the- head.
The ball passed through a portion
if the brain, and: was. taken out above the
forehead. The operation was performed
by Dr. W. B. D. Blackwood, then Sur
i;eon General of the division, who now
lives at No. 246 North Twentieth street,
[ i U-.tbia city. During the progress of the
operation a mass of the brain, weighing
about an ounce and a half and as large
lb au egg, escaped. The bullet, to which
tome of-the-brain matter and a portion
of the scalp adhered, was preserved, and
upon bis departure from the hospital was
given to the wounded mao, who, to the
i^tODishment of the; surgeorj, recovered.
] Je has suffered no mental inconvenience
and now occupies a responsible clerical
po?ition in the Beading Railway o:5ce at
3?ottsvlUei When;the'-bullet was'pre
sented to him twenty . years ago. at the
hospital door the brain, matter and the
little patch of scalp h'ad'dried .up,:but a
fsw short hairs could bo seen sticking out
from- the latter. The bullet had been
considerably- flattened,- and some what
resembled in shape a miniature clam
shell? & ;
As time elapsed Mr. Matthews, who
g reatly2-'prized & tufa relic, noticed !* ah
astonishing' fact. ' The-hairs, which: at
f r?t were scarcely prominent enough to
t $if'oticedj were j growing. - 'Otbelr nairs
grew out also until a thick - black bunch
appeared at the back end of the bullet.
?At first his Mends refused to credit the
story /although he showed the precious
r 3iic io proof. ' Once or twice- he cut off |
tie ends df thegrowing hair. It contin?
ued to grow. 'About a year ago. Mr.
Matthews came -to -Philadelphia and
;iwghP'-^^Br^BricTcwo^jrto whom he
e thibiled the . bullet with its bunch of
apparently healthy hair. The surgeon,
iu;tfce,jjresence of, .professional witnesses,
cat- off an inch of the:hair/ measured
that which remained, boxed, and, sealed
up the bullet, and placed it in trusty
hands for safe keeping. Recently the
package was opened. A careful meas?
urement showed that the hair had grown
orer an inch since the ball had been last
!.<:en, and Dr. JBrackwood said yesterday:
-The fact is beyond dispute. Apparent
y without nutrition, upou the dried up
p irticle, of .scalp and brain, this hair
'hi id 6een-and5s bow^ growing as surely,
if not so luxuriantly, as it grew upon
W.atthewa' head'when he was shot. I
?collect the wound,* the operation and
tie .presentation of the relic -to the in?
jured man after his remarkable recovery.
It seems to me to settle beyond; doubt
that hair can and does grow upon dead
bodies. The fact has' steadily been de?
nied by medical journals.and medical
men generally, but the men who' have
charge of the medical college - 'subjects,'
tbose mysterious felldws who have every
opportunity to know, nearly all declare
that they continually. witness the proof
of it." -
That hair can be transplanted arid will
contract organic adhesion is a recognized
[iast, and the American Cyclopedia.says:
"Hairs will grow after death and live for
centuries^'But no such remarkable' in?
stance as the hair growing on Mr. Mat
thaws bullet is on record.
A Smokeless Locomotive.
? - ' -
A short time ago it' was stated that a
new locomotive, invented by Mr. Cbas.
B. Coventry, was on trial on the Chicago
and Northwestern JRailway, whieb--it.=was
chimed, was destined to solve the problem
of preventing the emission of dense
smoke and cinders from locomotive a tacks.
The locomotive was tried in freight ser?
vice of the Chicago and Northwestern
/or three weeks,;and has given the great?
est satisfaction." fs During- the iasr 'two
weeks it has been on trial on the
suburban trains of the Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific. The poorest quality
of bituminous coal was used, and yet, at
no time, although at one point it ran
fifty miles an hour, did any bls.ck smoke
come out of the stack. Not a particle of
cinders and dust was thrown out. The
Bm jkeT.that wasAemitted was. thirT and
white-looking ?much like escaping
steim. 'There, was r>o badodor from
escaping gas, as is the case on ordinary
engines. Mr. Coventry explained that
the gassea on ordinary engines are usually
thrown out of the stack, which is the
caise of the density of. the,smoke. On
hia engine the -gassea are all burned, and
thin was. what caused the saving of fuel.

Humiliation baa come to the family of
Prof. Gansing, the celebrated physiolo?
gist. Several days ago, John Gansing, a
young man of promise, married a Chinese
woman. When the Professor heard of
the disgraceful affair, he swore that,
never again should the worthless fellow
find shelter under the paternal roof.
Several days afterwards the son came
home, bringing his wife with him. Un?
observed, they entered the parlor. When
the old gentleman entered, not suspect?
ing his son's return, be was shocked by
an avalanche of indignation.
?3 T?rjcfw ^date you bring"' this woman to
my-honse?" he exclaimed." ~~
'i The young man was astonished.
"Father, I do not understand you," said
he. "I thought that you would welcome
my wife. She doesn't speak very good
English at present, buttfnder your teach?
ing she can overcome the difficulties of
ouruneven tongue."
'^Weiconie" your wife I" stormed the.

"Don't be violent in manner. Ying

"How on earth can you love such a
creature V said the humiliated father.
"0, Idon'tlove her."
'"Theri why in the thunder, air, did you
m^rryber?" -
"Dld'gentleman, there is no^use in cut?
ting up. Respect for your teachings
caused me to marry her. In your;
lectures you say that a' man should marry
his opposite. Some time ago 1 began
reading accounts of Chinese customs, and
I found that, they .were our opposites in
everything. I have followed your ad?
vice""
The Professor groaned.1
"Besides that," continued the young
many "theparentsof the girl died recently,
leaving her the controlling stock in the
largest laundry of the country."
The Professor's face brightened.
"She has considerable "money on hand.
I have,none. In this respect, too, we are
opposites.*'
The Professor laughed.
"She has generously consented to pay
off the mortgage on our place."
The Professor threw his arms around
the young wife and kissed her muskmelon
countenance. Releasing her, he turned
to his son and said:
"I am pleased at your choice. The
Chinese are not nearly so yellow as they
have been painted. . I should have mar?
ried this sort of a girl?not too opposite
but just opposite enough for all practical
purposes. .Your Another, my son, is my

"Grace teas in all ncrttept, Heaven in her\
eye,
In every gesture dignity and love.'"
So appeared Mother Eve, and so may
shino her fair descendants, with the ex?
ercise of common senso, care and proper
treatment. An enormous number of fe?
male complaints are directly caused by
disturbance or suppression of the Men?
strual Function, in every such caso that
Stirling and unfailing specific, Brad
riEM's Female Regulator, will effect
relief and cure.
It is from the recipe of a most distin?
guished physician. It is composed of
strictly official ingredients, whose happy
combination has never been surpassed.
It is prepared with scientific skill from
the finest materials. It bears the palm
ior constancy of strength, certainty of
effect, elegance of preparation, beauty of
appearance and relative cheapness. The
testimony in its favor is genuine It
never fails when fairly tried.

This will certify that two members of|
my immediate family, after having suf?
fered for many years from menstrual
irregularity, and having been treated
without benefit by various medical doc?
tors, were at length completely cured by
one bottle of Dr. J. Erad?eld's Female
Regulator. Its effect in such cases is
truly wonderful, and well may the rem?
edy bo called "Woman's Best Friend."

A FEW WORDS FROM
CAPT. R. W. BOOTEE,
a well-known
CITIZEN OF MACOH, (JA.
In August, 1881, nearly three years ago, my sod,
who was at that time living at Clinton, Ga.. came
over to see me with the sad intelligence that his
wife was in the last stages of consumption and
that he r physician had pronounced her case hope'
less. I went immediately over, and I felt that
nothing; could be done. She was coughing and
spitting: incessantly, and at times would discharge
from her lungs a large quantity of pus or matter
?could not sleep or retain anything on her stom?
ach, ami was, in fact, In tho last stages of the dis?
ease. This was about the time you began to ad?
vertise Brewer's Lung Bestorer, and as my son'
expressed a desire to give it to his wife, two or
three bottles were procured and with scarcely a
vestige of hope we commenced giving it to her in
small doses, gradually increasing the quantity un?
til the p rescribed dost? was reached. She began tc
improvo after a few doses and continued to do so
daily, until uhe was finally restored to life and
health, and is to-day perhaps in better health than
ever bet?re. She is subject to colds, but a few
sw .1 lows of Brewer's Lung Bestorer (which she is
never without) relieves her immediately. I con?
sider her restoration to perfect health a mlraclo,
for which she is indebted to Brewer's Lung Re?
storer. My iion is almost a monomaniac on the
subject of Brewer's Lung Bestorer and never lets
an opportunity pass where he thinks such a medi?
cine would be required, that he does not speak of
it iu most glowing terms. Not long sirce a North?
ern gentleman on his way to Florida heard of this
cure anc. was induced by my son to give it to his
invalid wife, and she was cured as if by magic."
Brewer's Lung Bestorer contains no opiates.
