POINTs OF a GOOD HOG.

The mere name (breed Of hog is not al
ways q criterion of its excellence. Early
maturity and a tendency to take on flesh, win
do more towards making a hog valuable, than
any other virtue contained in the mere title of
Berkshire, Suffolk, &c, for it may possess
more of the valuable qualities of the breed.
In the true Berkshire, the result of a cross
between the Chinese and the Neapolitan va
rieties, we find the nearest approach to de-
sired standard, the chief points Of which are
as follows; The breast and Ions should be
broad, the bones and joints small, and the
legs just long enough to prevent the belly
from touching the ground the feet should be
firm, even, upright and sound; the head
should be broad and thick the snout short.
and ears light, thin and incline slightly for,
ward.
Nor is color to be overlooked in deternin-
ing the breed Of the animal, A dark skin
and thin hair shows Neapolitan blood; a white
skin and medium size indicate the Chinese
breed, while a light or reddish hue, with dark
spots, denotes the Berkshire R,Tal Anaeri-

4. farmer should not imperil his titie 70
land he already possesses. BY over anxiety 70
obtain an additional number Of ado lining
acres.
He should not attempt to cultivate more
land than he can attend te i,s season, O. keep
more stock than the farm win supply nntri-
ment for.
He shoald not put off till tomorrow what
needs to be done to-day should not wait till
farming implement is wanting before aseer-
tanning whether he has it, or # 50, whether
it is in condition to be used.
He should not let his stock rus down so IN
the winter, that half the summer be wasted in
placing the animals where they should have
been at the commencement Of the spring.
He should not, when field is planted,
leave the struggling shoots to contend with
weeds, until the latter become the prominent
feature Of the field.
He should not go to sleep overnight before
first having determined what he and his help
are to commence with in the morning, with
means provided to make the labor effective.
He should not rely much on those he mag
employ: every household want a head no
matter how faithful its hired members may
be. This position belongs to the owner Of
The frm, and he should occupy it. He may
labor VI not as suits his inclination and
means, but the direction Of the affairs should
remain with him.
He should not seek TO get extra work out
of his laborers by turning day into twilight OF
night Laborers regard this practice as an
impetition, and will become morose and dis
contented at the exertion, Besides exhaust
ed nature requires a suitable time to recruit
its energies, and should have it.
He should not give way to passionate Ian
guage because Of mistakes made or errors
committed by his help These are annoying,
certainly, but the use of vile language viii not
tend to repair the fault, nor lessen the chan
ces of repetition of it. Premedited wrong
doing should involve dismissal from service.
he should not, if lured from his business
during passing season by some trivial sport,
be much surprised to find that his hired help
has been enjoying partial holiday during his
absence.
He should not be indifferent to the physi-
cal comfort of these who serve him., None
are exempt from sickness. Let him be Kind
and eonsiderate to those who suffer They
will repay you by extra exertions when restor-
ed to health

wINDGALL on HORSES.


A lady writes to the Obserrer "Wc have
been watching the paper for a remedy for
windgalls. We have a valuable horse made
lame by them. If any one will give us any
information With regard to the cause and
their treatment, through youg 4aIuable paper,
they will greatly obligeu
We can assign plausible and true cause
of windgalls, yet the respedy is quite another
consideration, waile prereatice is still anoth-
er thing.
Windgalls ara the undue engagements of
small sacs on the limbs of horses, about the
hooks and upper pastern joints. They are
the natural and certain results of hard driv-
ing and straining the limbs by hauling, or
carrying heavy loads. Those horses that
have small and slender limbs, are far more
liable to have windgalls than such as have
large and strong legs. When young horses
are put to heavy work, or are driven beyond
their strength, or required to draw so heavy
loads that they strain themselves, windgalls
will soon appear on their legs. Horses that
have not been over-worked nor strained be-
fore they are six years old, seldom have wind
gals.
There are various ways of treating wind
gals. Sometimes they are incurable; and
the more they are tampered with, the worse
it is for the animal. In some instances, the
cautery is employed to remove windgalls.
Yet no one but a skillful veterinarian of ex-
tensive experience should attempt to apply
this remedy. The best and most el6cacious
remedy that we have ever met with, is to pro.
cure a quarter of pound Of arnica flowers,
at the drug store, put it in q bottle, and fill
the bottle with whiskey, and cork it tightly.
Afor it has stooped about ono day, lot the
windgalls be bathed thoroughly with this liz,
uid. Battle and rub the legs and windgalls
well for five minutes with water, previous to
applying the arnica aud whiskey. If the
horse is young, gentle driving and thorough
application Of this remedy, viii almost effect
a cure after few months. Windgalls on the
legs of old horses will sometimes yield to the
remedy. Yet in many instances She old horse
viii need to be reiuyenated before his wind
gals can be cured. -Ne,c York 06serrer

TALKING WHEN MILKING

We have seen it tnoticed some where, that
talking while milking is not good thata COW
viii give less milk, &c. We think we can say
we have had experience in this way. 1t comes
under the head Of quick milking. fast
mixer is better than slow, Talking is very
apt to retard milking not only that, "a skit
tish COW will be uneasy where too much ado
Is, where another personis present, especially
stranger. We think We have seen a decrease
OF milk where talking person was present.
We prefer milking alone, and as fast as posi-
bic. Quietude and contentment are great
qualities in COW. A wild COW is not gener-
ally good one. Ifshe is, she viii be much

The Grover and Baker Elastie-Stitch sewing
Machines are superior to all others for the follow
ing reasons:
l. They sew direct fom the spools, and require
no rewinding of thread
2. They are more easily understood and used
and less liable to dclangement than other ma
chimes.
8. They arc capable of executing perfectly,
without change Of adjustment, much greater
variety Of work than other machines.
4. The stitch made By thIse machines is much
more firm, elastic, and durable, especially upon
articles which require to ho washed and ironed.
than any other stitch.
5. This stitch, owing 10 the manner in which
the under thread is inwrqugbt, is much the most
plump and beautiful in us and retains this
plumpness and beauty even upon articles frequent
ly washed and ironed until they are worn out
6. The structure of the seam is such that
though it be cut or broken at intervals of only
few stitches, it viii neither open, run, or ravel
but remains firm and durable.
I. Unlike other machines, these fasten both
ends Of the seam by their own operation.
8. With these machines, while silk is used upon
the right or face side of the seam, cotton may he
used upon thesother side without lessening the
strength or durability Of the seam. This can he
done on other machine and is a great saving
upon all articles stitched or made up with silk
These machines, in addition to their superior
merits as instruments for sewing, by o change Of
adjustment, easily learned and practccd, execute
the most beautiful and permanent embroidery and
ornamental work
