Prof. cSTeed.ng Corn to Hogs.

ut is estimated, from an experiment
made by S. b. Anderson, that luo bush
els OF corn will produce $50 lbs. oil gross
increase in the weight oil hogs. loo
thrifty hogs were weighed and put INTO
pen. They were fed for 100 days as
much corn as they would eat. The aver
age consumption was 100 bushels avery
six DAYS. The averge increase per hog
for the 100 days was l75 lbs, or at the
rate Of II lbs. per day.
1t thus appears that bushel Of corn
will produce gross increase OF loa los.
Throwing off ID to come at the net
weight, gives $ 2-5 lis. Of pork as the
product OF busAel Of corn. II 5 % lbs.
OF pork are made by hushel, or So lbs.

From an experiment made by Samuel

stock Breeding.

The subject Of improving breeding l.
TO diminish, or if possible, to remove the
defects of live stock, and to require and
perpemate desirable properties. The
general art is to make such a selection oil
males and females, as are likely to pro.
mote the object, paying particular af'en'
ton to a maxim which is too frequently
forgotten-the governing law OF the an
imaI kingdom that like produces like
B. that the good or bad properties OF the par
ents are hereditary, and are almost ln-
variably impaired to their progeny. we
know that some animals iatten faster
than others, and that they are generally
more hansomly formed; on handling
them. we find the skin and parts beneath
are soft and mellow. The mellowness
is a kind Of soltness and elasticity per-
ceived upon pressing the skin, and Is a
very favorable sign OF the aptitude OF an
animal 10 fatten. These parts are so
MANY membranes which in fat ANIMALS
are full Of fat, and stock possessing that
mellow feeling is an important object
for an animal is almost valuless, though
it may be possessed Of perfect symmetry,
if it cannot be made fat without extraoT-
binary keeping.
The object Of breeder should be to
get as little bone as possible large round
leg bones indicate course animal,
whereas flat and small bones are sym
toms Of being well bred, 1t is highly
desirable that there should not be excess
in one part and deficiency In another,
but that an animal should be fat on every
point in equal proportions, taking care to
get as much as possible in those where 1t
IS most valuable; for instance IT is OF
more value On the loins, ribs, and rump
than on the neck or hooks - therefore
breadth Of the loin, length Of the rump,
rotundity of frame, a good deep chest
and shoulders placed obliqnely, SO that
there may be no hollowness behind them,
are Indispensable qualities IN a good
formed animal, and | believe our best
Devons possess these requirements IN
greater degree than any other breed oil
