sometimes hear, with the greatest astonish-
ment, although we ought net perhaps to won
der at any assertion without knowledge,
some persons, and those even farmers, say !:
" As to the breed Of Hogs tits all nonsense; it
is corn that makes the Hog; give them plen-
ty Of that and you will have pork enough"
And is it possible then that q farmer can be
SO ignorant Of the nature Of animals, as not
to know that there are some breeds of ami
mails, especially Hogs, now so improved as
to possess tendency to fatten to such de-
gree as to take less than half the food of the
common breeds to put them in condition for
killing? And is it matter Of small consid-
GRAFTON, with the farmer to obtain animals
which, in comparison with other breeds, will
enable him to make saving Of at least one
half the foodnecessry to fit them for market,
besides their arriving at comparatively very
early maturity, (for as to great size, that is
not a matter Of near 80 much moment as
their other qualities,) and making much su-
perior meatf we will say nothing Of the
symmetry and beauty Of their forms, and
their being more easily managed on account
Of their greater docility. There will be fail
ures and discomftures in all human under
takings, but that is no reason why the gen.
eral means of Improvement should not be al
lowed to proceed, particularly in SO funda-
mental and .all-important pursuit as that Of
agriculture. If the old are contented to stand
still in love Of ease and calmncss, there is
more excuse for them but the young and
ambitious, at any rate, should be ever stri-
wing towards perfection in all their underta.

Crops in Ohio.

1t is now found, says the Cincinnati Ga
sette, that the great tornado destroyed large
share of the young fruit and fruit trees in the
section through which it passed, the loss in
this respect will be perhaps, the heaviest
farmers have to sustain. Lovers of Apples,
Peaches, Cherries and Pears, may expect a
heavier draft upon their purses.

The Out Worm.

This enemy to the farmer and gardener is
very destructive to the Corn, and garden
crops this spring. The use Of little lime
and ashes mixed is good to clean them out.
1t may be either applied in the ground with
the seeds or plants, or at the surface of the
ground with both. They do not like the al
