PoRK.-In selecting swine for fatteoiup

PoRE.-In selecting swine for fattening
purposes, II is safest not to make choice Of
long backs, OF hollow ones. These may, in
time, become large hogs, but it will take
much corn or other food to fatten them well.
Generally, hogs, which when fattened, will
weigh from three to four hundred pJubds.
are the most profitable and make the mos
desirable pork, either for domestic use, or for
the market The practice of selecting in
early spring, plump built pigs at from four
or SIX weeks old, and making them Cat a.
possible by Thanksgiving week, is TO be com
mended. Two such Pigs may easily be made
to weigh twenty or twenty-five scores and
as these are not subject to the cost of win.
tering over, but are kept only through the
vernal season, when vegetables are plenty
and other means of feeding are at hand, the
cost of keeping two such swine will not equal
that Of supporting one hog year or eighteen
months TO make him weigh five hundred
pounds. The last two pigs which we raised
were dropped IN April. They were slaugh
hCAVN i0'S w ANofchhOciy auu lIlciI ohi'eu
weight was SIX hundred and eighteen pound
both nearly of equal size.
Some say that pig pork, being young ana
tender, does not spend as we'll, or last a.
long, as the flesh OF old hogs. 1t may be so /;
one reason, however, may be, that, being
sweet and tender, the members OF q family
are more disposed to partake of it than diff
ferent kind.
We have known some dairy women who
I'D the kDack of making butter that would
Last the family long time indeed, on,-
p'und would Iinger as long upon the table a.
two pounds Of sweet butter.
Most housekeepers in every village car
conveniently keep one pig through summer
and autumn from the refuse Of their gardens
snd the waste OF their tables. The purchase
of TWO or three bushels Of Indian corn one
month before the slaughterng, and given
them partly in the shape Of SCALED meal
NAV be all the actual cost required. And a
vel fttened, plump, sweet pig or ten scores
about Thanksgiving time, is no unacceptable
contribution 20 the meat Room, or the Gel

UTILIZING WAsTE-In the operations OF
the farmer, the great secret of his success is
the facility and cheapness Of the manure
heap which is made out of the waste ma
terIals that accumulate or exist about him. -
This material Is always accumulating, and
where agriculture is badly carried on, there
is usually proportionate neglect of nanures
4 country il impoverished in its agriculture
just in proportion as it's crops are removed
and the waste is unsupplied TO the soil now
undergoing exhaustion. Hence q country
that carries its products to the city, and
where the waste Of the city is allowed to run
into the sea, is in great danger Of being run
out.
Like nature herself, the farmer should al
low nothing 10 run to waste. He must learn
to utilize everything. The ancients when
engaged in mining operations frequently per-
formed their wsrk very unskilfulIy, and it is
said that the silver mines that were wrought
in Greece in the days of Xenophon are now
worked over again by making use Of the
waste materials of that day.
Poor farming only partially uses the waste
materials of the farm good farming saves
the whole, just as the skiIful miner works
out all the gold from the ore.
II is hard finding farmer at the present
day who will allow O stream to run through
his barn>yard and carry off his liquid manure
or who will set fire to his heaps of straw, or
who will allow his chip>yard to accumulate e
load after load of refuse matter. These faults
OF the farmer are rarely to be seen at the
present day, but the great question will arise
In tine minds of most farmers, how they shall
add to their manures and how they shall
treat them.
An important rule is to make the manure
heap common receptacle of every thing
otherwise useless about the bouse and barn.
II is surprising how great an accumulation
of manure attentive farmers can make by
watching every opportunity to save 1t.

brought down the house by his Vieor-
Gus illustrations and logic, aud his, at
times, eloquent periods. And just
here let me say, that the reception of
this man and the applause given, came
from no vulgar, ignorant, vicious
herd, but from an audience of near
four thousand as Intelligent, substan-

were intelligent. substantial and in

respect. The humbug cry of negro
equality has no terror to them. 1t was
not the negro that they honored, but
| the manhood, the intelligence and the
force of character in him. The color
of his skin did not blind them to the
claims of these.
