DRESSING HOGS

II would, doubtless, be great saving to farm
ers if they could learn to scald hog OF five six
hundred weight, with The aid Of two men withou:
a tub, where it would require halfa dozen men TO
lift and -scald hog of six hundred pounds besides
the expense of an extra tub, and at the hazard Of
scading themselves IN the process.
Every farmer who is in the habit of dressing hogs,
is familiar with the practice, when places upon "A
hog are not properly -scaded, of laying hand
ful Of brstles, and pouring hot water, when the
bristles readily come it is termed. Let us take
n hint from this practice, and instead Of lifting a
hog in and out of a tub of hot water, place him on
a plank boards laid n common sled, or 9th
er convenient place. Then cover the body, or the
upper side at least, and the legs and head, with
some cloth that will set close and ,woollen is best
as it will retain the heat better than linen cot
ton. Thick cotton, or double cotton will answer,
but horse blanket of woollen is best. When this
is wrapped close to the hog, pour on boiling hot
water sufficient to wet the whole thoroughly, and
the blanket will retain the heat so that it will soon
scald tho hog, and let the hair loose Try, and if
not loose, cover and pour on more boiling water.
When one side OF the hog ceased turn him over
and treat the other side in the same way.
Ifyou put tar in the boiling water, or sprinkle
fine powdered rosiu on the hog, before he is cov-
cred, it will take off the souri, and his skin will be
a clean after scalding off the hair as lady hand
Women may clean the head and feet OF the calf,
in the same manner.-1ibany CuItirator.

PRoTEcTIoN OF SHEEP.-'FThe point which my
very few observations will embrace is the extraor
binary increase in the growth and condition OF
sheep by being fed under cover, in an open yard,
with shed in it. This idea had no doubt
red to many others besides myself but am not a
ware that any one has SO fully examined into the
effects attending that inquiry us happened to do
in the course efthe winter, and the winter efore.
Gentlemen, the principal is one which we have &C
knowledged in, every practical way, by every
thing that eats, namely, that if it has plenty to eat
is warm, and has nothing to do, it is very likely to
increase. ! certainly was no: aware, until by re
peated experiments tested the truth OF it, namely,
that the same an mals when placed in the shad de
and kept warm, increased very much more rapidly
in their condition and weight, than when out in
the open air, but also that they consumed a much
smaller quantity of food. have not the papers by
nc to refer TO, but as far my recollection goes,
il is this. that the quantity of food consumed
less by at least third, and that the increase OF
weight fully one third, taking it in round mum
bers. At the beginning of the season, ] built
shed which will contain about eighty hogs, "a shed
which will serve for cattle well y and l merely
