Keeping Swine.

During the winter and spring
stock hogs do much he best, par
ticularly 10 this section, fed on corn
and Stops, After grasses have
started, they will do very well alone
for while. Clover ! have found
to be the best, as besides keeping
the hogwell, 1t tnrlches the ground.
BY the time grasses begin to be
tough, stubble OF small grain will
be found fully sufficient 10 keep
them growing and in good order,
until corn is sufficiently matured.
Meantime, however, if swine could
have the surplus apples from the
farm, they would add much to the
firmness Of the fat, make the skin
thinner, the meat whittier, and in
other respects much superior.
Parsnips, too, are an excellent arti>
Gle Of food, and when fed in con
nection with sour milk or swilf,
viii Fat in less time than anything
lever tried. Parsnips should be
fed Just as taken from the ground,
without cleaning or cooking.
Swine that have access TO stone
coal do much better and are always
healthier than those that have not.
They Fat faster, and indeed I'nevelI
knew hog thus situated troubled
with The kidney uormE Soap suds IS
also very healthy; but too much care
cannot be taken in giving every
thing TO swine, as brine which has
saEypefrg in it, is sure to kill every
one that drinks it. Sweet whey is
also apt to produce death, and
should, therefore, stand until it IS
sour before it is given. WieHiI is
aot convenient or practical to feed
a pples or parsnips, | have found
green corn Stalks. fodder and ear
excellent, a hog " i'll fat much fas-
ter and better ia warm weather
than cold. Hence it is no waste TO
iced green corn to swine in the

Fat BullOcks--- Butchers Yarns.

L at BnllOcks--B Butchers Yarns.
Billy IL vas one of the most
notorious butchers of truth in the
abstract, that ever lived. If the
truth answered the purpose best and
a Lie wo uld do him a positive injury,
lit seemed he VI ould tell a lie in pref
erence to the truth, at any time and
on any OCCASION. In this respect he
was indeed an anomaly. If man
told a big yarn in Billy's hearing, he
was sure to be beaten-Billy had al
ways something more wonderful to
relate.
Billy's neighbor, Judge j., had
had many a bout with him, spinning
yarns, but invariably had come out
second best, although he had an exu-
berant Imagination, and his reputa-
ton for Yefacity was none of the
best.
On one occasion the Judge was ri
ding past Bills farm, when Billy
hailed him, and inquired if he didn't
want to buy quarter of fine beef
as he had just killed an elegant steer.
WAS he fat, Billy?' inquired the
Judge.
! oh yes, answered Billy; fat as
whale. [ rather guess you va uld
: think SO, if you but knew how m uch
tallow we got out of him. VI by,
Judge, we got three hundred and
twenty pounds, to fraction-w hat
d . you think of that?'
| Now, the Judge thought this to be
r3 ther a tough yarn, but he felt N ore
ii clined to beat Billy at his own ga me,
t ban to, express any doubt about his
Y eracity,
sThat W as a pretty consider4 BILE
steer, Billy replied the Judge; but
not a patchin' to one | killed a few
years ago, He weighed, nett, yer
two thousand pounds, and he turned
out four hundred and ten pounds Of
Ftallow, as n ear as / can recollect.'
/ Billy was taken all aback for an
instant, but collecting himself he
confessed that this was the largest
animal of the OK kind he had ever
heard of, e kept one that ne once
sold in til & Philadelphia market IL
This said Billy, was the largest
steer that ever had been seen wit hin
TIL recollection Of man. He was an
elephant in his proportions-som me-
thing on the Mastadon order. W hen
we got him into the city eontinI led
Billy, his gigantic dimensions stra ck
EVERYONE with amazement. 1t was
almost Chr istmas time, and he was
bought by butcher for Christi has
beef. On Christmas eve, preparatpr
to being slaughtered, he was para fed
through the streets, decorated with
flowers and gay colored ribbons, and
followed by an immense crowd =
Well, said Billy, he was slaughter ed,
and he weighed, nett, twenty seven
hundred pounds! And how much
tallow do you think we got but OF
him?
The Judge thought such an anil nal
would turf out considerably nj pre-
than good deal. He, however, t old
Billy he wouldn't hazard ain. opini ion
