Salt and Cold Water for Swine.

it is not common practice, we think
10 give salt to swine occasionally, while
every farmer would consider it prime
duty to offer il to his neat stock, horses
land sheep, as often as once a week. To
be sure, the swine get little salt in the
slops from the kitchen, but only little,
compared with the amount given TO other
animals In proportion to their weight,
why do rbey not need as much salt as the
other stock on the farm
We find an article going the round of
the papers upon the use of salt for fat
tening swine. The writer states that
"he selected two pairs Of barrow hogs
weighing 200 pounds each. One pair
received, with their daily allowance Of
food, two ounces of salt; the other pair,
similarly fed, none. Ia the course of
week, It was easily seen that the salted
pair bad a much stronger appetite than
the others, and after a fortnight, it was
increased to two ounces apiece. After
four months the weight of the sailed hogs
was $50 pounds each, while that of the
unsaIted five weeks later, reached only
300 lbs. The experiment was repeated
with almost precisely the same results"
Ii such should prove to be the general
result, most farmers have not gained all
the advantages they might have done
from the food fed out. From the exam
pie cited; there is no indications that the
salt excited a morbid appetite, and pro-
duced unnatural flesh and fat. OF course
sound judgment must be exercised in the
use Of salt as well as grain or any other
food
Another neglect Of swine--and some
times a most cruel one--ia that of not
giving them plentiful supply of pure
cold water. Why i! is supposed that the
bog should not need water as well as the
COW or sheep--neither of whom work.

several times, and finding it empty and

THE LITTLE SHRoUD.---To me, few
things appear so beautiful as very
young child in its shroud. The little in
nocent face looks so sublime, simple aud
confiding among the cold terrors of death.
Climeless and fearless, that little mortal
has passed alone under the shadow, and
explored the mystery of dissolution.
There is death in its sublimest and purest
image; no hatreb, no hypocrisy, no
suspicion, no care for the morrow, ever
darhened that little face death has come
lovingly upon it there is nothing cruel
or harsh in victory. The yearning of
love cannot be satisfied for the prattle
and smile, all the little world of thoughts
that were so delightful, are gone forever
Awe, too, viii overcast its presence, for
we are looking on death but we do not
fear for the lovely voyager for the
child has gone, simple and trusting, into
the presence of its all-wise Father; and
of such, we know, dis the kingdom of
