Pork VS.. Expenditures, may show the balance
on the right side. During The present month
we begin TO pen our hogs, feeding potatoes,
pumpkins. apples. skinned milk, sops, &C..
boiled together with little corn meal. In
October feed corn almost entirely. The corn
is ground in corn and cob mill, and all the
lood cooked, as we believe saving al rs to
80 per cent, is made thereby, Al this period
we turn our porkers into fertilizers, in other
words. set them up as manufacturers giving
them the droppings Of the barn, swamp muck,
straw, leaves, and and all sorts Of refuse to
turn over daily, sprinkling this compost freely
with charcoal. In The reckoning up this
comes in as quite a pile on the credit side,
and It we DO not derive anything very hand
some from the pork, We have something to
deposit with mother earth which we have fea.
