From the New England Farmer.
FARMERS WORK

FaHening Slcine.-Judge Peters Of
Pennsyivania. formerly President of the
PhIiadelPhia Agricultural Society stated
that "sour food is most grateful and ali
mentary to swine. Oae gallon of sour
wash goes farther than two OF e,reet. 1
mean The wash ascidulated to the degree
necessary FOR distil.a,ion, not acetous. !"
Mr.. Arthur Young likewise observes the
.'mest profitable mode Of converting corn
Lgrainl OF any kind, into food for hogs is
to grind it into meal, and mix this with
water IN cisterns. in the proportion of
five bushels Of meal to one hundred gall
Ions OF water; stirring it well several
times day, Tor three weeks in cold wea.
ther. or fortnight IN warmer season
by which it will have fermented we'll
and become acid, till which. il is no,
ready to give.-The mixture should al.
ways be stirred Immediately before feed.

Judge Peters also observes that dry
rotten wood kept constantly in styes. for
fattening hogs, to eat at pleasure. is a
good thing but will take the liberty
