From the American Farmer.

"THE HOGAN ESSAY.n
was quite interested in the Essay on the
Hog, in your February number. Much in
formation was impaired. and some that I
deem important and should be generally un-
derstood, was omitted.
Males and females should not breed un-
Ill twelve months old" Excellent advice. It
is too much the practice to let young sow
have litter by the time she is twelve or fif-
teen months old, and then kill her.
This is decidedly wrong. Those who de-
sire fine pigs SHOULD keep one or more breed
ing sows according to the size Of the farm
or stock they intend TO raise). After two or
three liIters they generally improve as moth
ers. They are large and roomy; they bring
much larger. stronger and more pigs at a lit
ter, than year old sow. They nurse their
pigs well, take more care Of them, have bet
ter supply OF milk. and pigs from two, three
or Eve year old SOW will grow twice as fast
and be twice the size at four weeks old, of
those from young sow.
A large old breeding sow is worth as much
as good COW TO farmer. and will net him
as much and more with less labor. She will
have certainly Two littcrs year, or five in
two years, and will average ten at litter af-
ter the third or fourth litter; and as good pigs
will bring - each. or $40 a year, it is more
than COW will produce.
! say. don't kill old sows. Remember they
are good nurses and experienced mothers 1t
is the wild and reckless young sows that kill
the pigs. When SOW filters she should moi
have too much straw, and what is furnished
should be very clean, and short cut straw is
the best; but dry clean leaves from the woods
is still better.
Those who keep large boar and large sows
for breeding iud their gain in il; aud tIrose
who have not tried il, and will do so, will
find il 70 their advantage. Such is the ex-
perience Of one who has tried il, and the re-
suit was highly satisfactory. J. c. +.

BUILDING ON THE SAND.

By ELIZA COOK.
IT'S well TO WOO. It's well TO wed,
For so tho world has done
since myrtles grew and roses blew,
And morning brought the sun.
But have care, yc young and fair,
BE sure to pledge with truth;
De certain that your love will wear
Beyond the days Of youth.
For if We give not heart for heart,
As well as hand for hand,
You'll find you've play'd the "unwise" part,
And "built upon the sand.'
'Tis well to save, Ills well to have
A goodly store Of gold,
And hold enough Of shining stuff
For charity IS cold.
But place not all your hope and trust
In what the deep mine brings;
We cannot live on yellow dust
UnmiId with purer things.
And he who piles up wealth alone,
VIII often have to stand
Beside the Golfer chest, and own
Tis built upon the sand.p
'ris good to speak in kindly guisc,'
And soothe whene'er you can;
Fair speech should bind the human mind,
And love link man to man.
But stay not at the gentle words,
Let deeds with language dwell;
The one who pities starving birds
Should scatter crumbs as we'll.
The mercy that is warm and true
Must lend a helping hand,
For those who talk, vet fail to do,
But " build upon the sand.'

PLANTING EARLY POTATOES.

As soon as the weather is open and the
frost is entirely out OF the ground, is tie time
to prepare your ground for, and to plant po.
tatoes for an early crop. Select the driest
and best exposed bed in your garden. "a
light, sandy mould, if possible. Manure il
broadcast, with about hall the manure you
intend TO apply, dig that in to the depth Of
the spade. rake finely; then Law of rows four
inches deep. three feet apart; then strew The
residue nf the manure along the rows, place
the sets ten inches apart IN the rows. and
cover. Then give the bed broadcast dress
ing Of mixture comprised Of six parts ashes,
one part plaster aud one part salt; taking
care to give the drills full dusting. The
vines, when they first come up, should re-
eei,e another dsstins, as also al each work
ing. and once week after being laid by, un-
Ill the vines 90 oui Of bloom. As TO the work
ing Of the potatoes, il is sufficient 10 say that
they must be kept clean Of weeds aud grass,
and the earth open from the time that the
plants are three or four inches high until
laid by. The dusting with the prescribed
mixture must be done early in the morning,
while the vines are wet, 50 that portions Of
the mixture may adhere TO them.
With regard to the sets, they should be so
cut as TO have two eyes to each. As each set
is cut Il should have the wounded part rubbed
10 plaster or ashes, and put away IN cool
dry place, where they would not be subject
TO freezing. II cut two or three days before
being planted, 50 much the better.

c1y-Burlingame says he consented to 6cht BROOKE

p Burlingame says he consented to 6ght Brooks
TO vindicate the honor of Massachusetts, We think
the honor that could be furnished BY such vile as
sassn as Brooks or could be vindicated by putting
bullet through his worthless carcass, could hardly
be worth any person troubling himself about. No
thing more clearly indicates the vtiated state of the
moral atmosphere at Washington, than the circum-
stance that Burlingame would consent to speak to
such an unhung scoundrel Brooks at ell. We
venture the opinion, assuming that Brooks could
live in Boston and keep out of the penteniary, that
Burlingame such man would ever risk his re-
putation by speaking with him, much less consent
ing TO give him chance to shoot him. There must
be something radically viated and vitiating in the
atmosphere that reduces gentlemen to speaking
level with Brooks
