REARING HOGS.

Mr.. Editor.--I wish 70 add my testimo-
ny to that OF Siam" at 80 of the Cabinet
for August; have never been able to rear
the frs. litter of pigs from young sow with
credit to myself, or profit to any one, and
it is now my practice 10 kill them for roas-
ters, rather than make another attempt. |
have, however, seen some who have been
more fortunate, but, as a general rule, be-
ieve the thing, as | have stated it, is
we'll estsblished; and in paper, which
have now before me, " The Carolina Plan
ter," find the following observation
1t is fact of common observation, with
even our old servants who have long been
hog-minders, that the first litter of pigs from
young sow, or as they call them, gilt pigs,
are naturally of feeble constitution and un.
thrifty, and difficult to raise, and even il
raised, never perhaps acquire the size and
weight that litters of the same sow do after
wards" And, in addition to this, would
say, have raised m5Ie than twenty calve:
from young cows--Iheir first c1lves-ant
have never failed in obtaining them fine
strong and healthy; nay, if | were TO doub
lie the number, should not be beyond ih
truth. Can any of your readers accoun
for 4 phenomenon that is so generally accre
Gited, as to have grown into proverb-
d" The calf Of young COW, the pig Of a
old sew" t.

EMEDY ORTHE BOTS

* I'm T. y y TIL f 3 o L S.
In my early days, my father, being
fond of good horses, paid great attention
10 their health, and whenever he appre-
hended that his horse was affected with
the bots, had recourse 10 strong salt water,
generally brine in which beef had been
sailed. and II appeared to have n favora-
bic effect upon the animal. The brine
was given first without any thing preced-
ing 1t but after my neighbor had made
the following experiments we changed
our course Of practice. A two years old
horse having died Of the disease. our neigh
Dor opened him, and taking the nsophegas
or oxen, as II is perhaps more generally
called and from the stomach, split open,
andexposod the grub TO fair view-he found
their heads deeply imbedded in the cellular
substanc he then dropped few drops
o! the brine on some Of them, which in
duced those il touched 10 contract and adj
here with greatertenacity- then dropped
on some others some molasses, which in
stantly produced different effect they
appeared TO expand and slacken their hold;
on these he dropped some beef brine rs al
first which caused them Immediately 10
let 60 and fly off from their former station.
He found that by this course he could dis
lodge them whenever be pleased hence
the expedency Of administering something
sweet and agreeable before the brine is
given, is clearly suggested. As there is
no doubt that the insect called the bot bee,
depositng the egg or nit on the hair ofthe
horse, produces the grub in the stomach
by berg taken into his mouth, it is very
desirable 10 prevent their continuance on
the horse whore he would be likely to take
them into his mouth, which we have seen
one horse show great reluctance to do:Ehe
deliberately viewed the part thickly COW
cred with nts, and after some hesitation,
contracting his lips, with his teeth, bit the
part, and thed, as if to avoid all adhesion
of the nits, he gave verys udden motion
of his lips. These little eggs or nits are

Rail Road WheelaeiM rood TTre.-Mr:
Henry Dsccs, an Englishman, has in.
troduced new railroad wheel which the
Liverpool papers compliment highly. Ii
consists of q deep channelcd tire, in which
blocks of wood, chemically prepared 10
render them mpervious to water, are fixed
with the grain placed vertically, and are
then fastened with one or two bolts to each
The wheel, when so fitted and turned, pre-
SCENTS rather a deeper rim than usual, and
shows a wood-laced tire. The wheel is
stated 10 possess many advantages; that
the wood wears considerable time: that il
can be easily either returned or retired
and this without the usual cost or labor:
that il works smoother and easier than IRON
tired wheels, with the advantage Of going
well in wet weather upon inclined planes,
having a sufficient bite on the rail, without
dropping sand 10 assist il in this respect:
and lastly, an important result will be, that
the rails themselves will suffer less wear,
and that the fasten;ngs, sleepers, and the
blocks will receive less injury, and thereby
favor the laying Of rails on stone blocks
whenever they are considered most desira-
be-
