The proposed child labor bill promises to Prove a rock upon which the legislature will sadly split. SLch legislation is almost a new Clemtent in this state, and with no satisfactory precedent our peo ple are (lisposed to go slow. It is claimed by statisticians that the movement from country to cities bas practically ceased-at least. in such alarming proportions--and a (lecided tendelney is manhifested to wards a return to the soil. This is hopeful inl View of' the present con gested conlitions ill large (ities and thegeneral demand for all opell - ing, inl farnming sectiolns, for intel ligent, Ilabor. 1ho knows 1,he trials of iis mothr?

In an1swer to al article from Itl;ustio last week, I shoulId Iave put tho questAion at little m11o poin ted, but. I had 1roleiece to selling meet, as I notice it, is gell era lly' raised ol corn Inst aIolie, as fee'd. and lito hogs generally iii i ud hol)es. Ity) plantin g pin(or1S, potatoos etc. snppeenIlt th corl, the n1 1per S:Ction of our coultry ougliht not to 1liy I 1)ound of pork or bacon. Not iece the Cleimsoni Collego experiment. station 's report on valuie's of articles as hog feed Pindors at $24.50 1 r icre, pota toes at $18.75, corn at $ 1.50; this louks nlrveasonable, but I believe tlwrO is a gieat di pierence. I have bween tryiing this plan in part. for several yeaI's and am m Iuch pleased wvith it. I helievo now that it is a soiry hog or one that has poor feed and attention that does not make from 3-4 to one pouid of meat evrVy day it lives, if kept soven to eighteen or twenty months . Many of the experi. mental stations in tho Unitcd States report that one bushel of corn will make twelvo pounds of mot. I doubt this. A tar'go hog will eat a pehck cf corn per day and would havo to make aboit three pou1nds of meat per day. If it (d0es thie twelvo loundIs ait lix cenits make sovently-t wo cents; the corn is wor'thI srevent y- five cents, to say nothIin g of time wasted and lost in attention. The western man feedes Corn worth abuult half as much as ours, one-hjaif cent per bushel pays freight to us. I think it wisc to calculanto closely on our business. I notice thero are some men01 who seem to got more moiney, aind get there first, who sell some eggs but nio chiekons. I believe a chicken will eat a pock of grain or dough in 90 days, and, if good stock, will weigh two pounds. At 10, 12, or' even 15 cts. there is no monoy in) it, making no allowancei for what the hawks and cholera take. I agree wvith him in enving the Biblo ought to be read and obered more. But "If aniy provide not for his own aned espec(~ial ly for' those of his own1 hiouse, hie hathi denied the fadI ith ad is wVorse~ than an in fidel.'"
