Fatten Hogs Early.

We have used this caption. or its
equivalent, on former locations. 1t has
been brought to mind by reading an ar
licle from correspondent of the Ohio
Farmer. He first hogged down. lin
western parlance) forty acres of corn,
between the 10th Of September and the
ga of October By the hogs being
weighed when they were turned in and
when they were taken out, it was found
that they paid forty cents Il bushel for
the corn. estimating the pork at four
cents a pound, and corn at forty bushels
TO the acre
His next course was to take one hun
dred hogs, averaging goo lbs. each,
which were placed in nine covered pens
and fed all they could eat Of corn and
cobs ground together, steamed, and Civ
en- allowance five times day In week
they were again weighed, when, reckon
ing 20 lbs. of corn and cob as equal to a
bushel Of corn, and the pork as before,
the hogs gained 80 cents bushel for
the coin. The weather was warm for
the season.
The same experiment was tried again
the first week in November, when the
corn brought 62 cts, the weather being
colder. The third week in November,
the brought only 40 cts, and the fourth
week it brought but 26 cts; the wealth
er continuing to grow colder. Another
lot of hogs were fed through December,
which only gave 26 cts, bushel for
the corn. A part of one time the tenn
perature was at zero, and then the hogs
only gained enough to pay .fge cents a
bushel for the corn, and afterwards,
when the mercury went down ten de-
grees below zero, the hogs only hcld
tier 0agn.
The inference from these trials is, that
in general it is not profitable to feed corn
TO hogs after the middle of November.
The difference in gain is certainly sur
prising, and whether caused altogether
by the difference in temperature, or not,
no person of observation can doubt that
hogs gain much less in cold weather.
1t seems that the hogs gained much less
by helping themselves to corn in the
field, than when the corn was ground
and cooked and fed to the animals in
pens, under equal advantages of wealth

How Coffee came to be Used.

1t is somewhat singular to trace the
manner in which arose the use of tie
common beverage Of coffee, without
which few persons, in any half or Who'll
y civilized country in the world, now
make breakfast. AT the time Columbus
discovered America, it had never been
known or used. 1t only grew in Ara
bia and Upper Ethiopia. The discovery
of It's use as beverage is ascribed to
the superior OF a monastery in Arabia
who DESTROYS of preventing the monks
from sleeping at their nocturnal services,
made them drink the eifnson Of coffee,
upon the report of shepherds, who OBJ
served that their hocks were more lively
after browsing on the fruit Of that plant
lis reputation spread through the ada
cent countries, and in about two bun
dred years il had reached Paris. A SIM
gle plant Brought there 17l4, became
the parent stock Of all the French coli e
plantations in the West Indies. The
Dutch introduced it into Java and the
East Indies, and the French and Spanish
all over South America and the West
indies. The extent Of the consumption
can now hardly be realized The Uni
ted States alone annually consume it AT
the cost, on lis landing, of from fifteen
10 sixteen millions of dollars.
