WHEAT FEEDING WILL DO FOR

We have Just killed one pig, four
teen months old, which weighed 43S
pounds. \ neighbor had two pigs of
the same litter, weights 436 and 439
pounds 1t will be seen that the ave-
rage growth was trife over pound
a day for the whole life of these pigs.
Another neighbor had a pig Of the same
litter, killed at the same time, weight
24S pounds difference of nearly 300
pounds
There is an old adage among pork
makers, that "the breed of swine is
all in the trough" and these expert
ments would go to establish the truth
of the proverb. Though we have full
faith that some breeds are much better
than others, yet very much depends
upon feeding In the cases here re-
corded, the whole difference lay in the
trough. The heavy pigs were well fed,
while the other was stinted. Pork, in
the one case costs about six cents a
pound, in the other not less than ten.
To make pork economically, the swine
must have a dry, warm apartment to
sleep in, and, at this season of the
year, the bottom should be of wood, or
some good non conductor. They
should be fed at regular intervals
The pig knows the dinner hour as well
as his master, and his stomach be-
comes uneasy, if its cravings are not
met at the appointed time. The Sc
cret of thrift depends upon keeping him
in the most comfortable position pos
siblc. If pig squeals, his flesh is
wasting, and the owner should take
the alarm at once. But pigs should
have enough to eat at each meal, and a
change of food, occasionally. They
will grow more rapidly upon a mixed
diet. For the last few weeks these
heavy pigs were fed with two quarts
of corn meal apiece, at each feeding
This made the flesh firm, and heavy,
and the lard very abundant.
Full feeding is as great an advan-
tage to the manure heap, as it is to the
pork barrel. With suitable convent.
ences a farmer may make eight cords
of manure worth sixteen dollars, fol
each pig that he keeps a year. This
will pay for nearly one-half the food {
pig consumes, and very much reduce
the cost of making pork. The rule
then for making pork economically is
keep dry and warm, feed regularly an(
abundantly, with variety Of food
and save the manure.

LUCK In FARMING.

There are few words oftencr upon
the lips of a certain class of farmers
than lack. Smith is "lucky dog"
because his corn never rots, his wheat
never Wintcr-kills. his sheep never
get in to his rye, and his COWS never
invade his meadows and orchards
His crops are better than his neigh
boris, his butter brings more in the
market. and even his wife and children
have more coutcntcd look than other
people. Every thing he touches thrivcs.
What lucky man Smith is
Now, the fact is, luck has nothing
to DO with Smiths success in life. If
You watch the man, you will find that
every result he reaches is anticipated
and planned for. aud comes of his own
wit and work. 1t is the legitimate re-
ward of his labors. and il would have
been bad luck, il it had turned out
otherwise. His corn always comes up.
because he always selects the seed him

He is really SO obstinate, mulish and
accommodating on the kansos ques-
ton, that no one is willing to advise
bin. In fact, he will take no advice
from any Democrat under fifty with
show of civility. The consequence is
that Pugh, of Ohio, and Young Amer

California. feel little sulky, and are
drawing of with Douglas. ] never
saw SO great a change in any man as in
Buchanan, since these Kansas troubles
began. He is naturally plant, but
now his pcevishness, his jealousy of
Douglas, and suspicion that there is a
design to undermine him among our
prominent men in Congress, has set
his back up so that he has apparently
gone to the other extreme Of unrcason-
ing and intolerant obstinacy. He
thinks he understands this Lecompton
business better than any one else, and
has nothing to learn, and he fumes inn
mensely over the slur in Douglas
speech, that he was absent on a patri-
otic mission from the country when the
Nebraska bill passed. Cor. New York
