Fattcning Hegs.

WHEN hogs are fairly on their way of
being fattcned, receiving several times
day all the food they can eat, the more
they can be made To cat the faster they
will fatten and the more profit the farmer
will derive from the food given them and
consumed.
There was once strife in certain
neighborhood Of good farmers as to who
should annually have the fattest hog.
Each one took pig of the same litter, so
that they all started alike But somehow
1t turned out that one certain man always
came outahead. This constant victory ex-
cited wonder and curiosity. But at last the
secret leaked out. The successful farmer
was in the habit of giving his pig all that
it would eat, and then turning into his pen
another hungry pig, which, of course,
would commence feeding vocilerously.
This would arouse into action the sluggish
appetite of the other pig, and he, too,
would turn in eating with eagerness, and
resolutely competing with the hungry pig
! By this means the hog that was being
fattened was stuffed several times day to
repletion.
There is another way by which hog
can be induced To eat much more than he
otherwise would, and consequently be

be fed, for instance, all he will eat of corn
in the ear. Then fill his trough half full
with clean water, and strew into this
trough three or four quarts of shelled corn,
and it Will be found that the hogs appc-
tite will come to him again, and this adj
ditiOnal amount of food will also be CON
sumed.
1t generally the case that those hogs
which do not take on fat very rapidly are
poor caters; and it is an object of impor-
lance worthy of the farmers attention to
make them full eaters Every fattening
hog, which is really thriving SATISFACTORY
ly, will always denote that by his peculiar
snuilling and difficult breathing just after
eating all that he will eat And perhaps
it will be found that even scrub hogs
about which so much complaint is mad,
for their shyness in taking on fat, can be
made To give much more satisfaction i
some cflectual means are taken to make
them greater eaters.-Erchahg6

Farm.Yard Manure.

NOTWITHSTANDING the great use made
of artificial manures in Great Britain, the
value of the produce of the yard is not
overlooked. a late number of one of
England's best agricultural journals
speaks as follows on the subject 1.-THE
produce of the farm yard is to every
farmer the first and the chief assistance.
The production and use of farm-yalt,
dung is the foundation of all successful
farming. A very large proportion of the
manure thus produced is employed for tire
root crop. Its employment differs very
widely according to the nature of the soil.
In some cases it is drawn upon the land
as soon as it is made, and plowed into the
soil without delay; in other instances il is
heaped in the field until spring tillages
are well advanced; while some adopt the
rule of drawing it fresh from the yard,
and putting it in bouts or ridges, ready for
being at once covered up by the ridge
pillow. Each system has its advocates, and
there are circumstances under which each
may be preferable"

Winter Management of Sheep.

The method to be employed in fatten-
ing sheep for market depends somewhat
upon the kind of feed used. Turnps de-
serve special notice In this respect Be
cause they have no superior as food for
sheep, and because their cultivation is
good for the soil The supply of food
they furnish is very large, and the ground
is cleaned by them equally as well as by
oats or buckwheat. For fattening sheep,
however, they should not be used alone, but
corn-meal, oil-cake, pea-meal or yemeal
should be mixed with them, the latter in
very small quantities. Mixed i'm this way
they will fatten sheep quicker than with
any other kind of feed From fifteen to
twenty pounds of white or purple strap
leaf turnips a day, and | think them
equal to Sweeds for fattening With
this amount should he fed half pound
of oil-cake, or one pound of corn meal, one
pound of peas, or half pound of rye
The tendency of rye is to bloat sheep, and
it should therefore be fed i'm small quaint
ties Every farmer who intends To fatten
sheep should provide for an abundance
of turnips, aud he will find his profit

Underlined Ailments.

There are many ailments, tryin. in their nature,
but the symptoms of which not sufficiently
specific to enable physicians to classify them under
any particular head. AS general rule they arise
from general debility o: the whole organization,
but their primary cause in at least three out
of five, is a lack oil brisk vital action in the stom-
ach and liver. Stimulate and tone the relaxed and
digestive secretive organs, and bodily ease, health
and vigor will follow the treatment. Among all the
medicines which have been recommended as con
ducive TO this end, none has been administered
with such uniform and entire success as HOSTEL
TER'S STOMACH BlTTERS.
Its ingredients were selected from the vegetable
kingdom, originally, with view To the invigora
ton of the physique and the constitution and also
for their antiblious and slightly relaxative prop
critics. Twenty odd years of experience has proved
that these herbal restoratives were wisely chosen
and have been judiciously apportioned in this Gel
ebrated preparation. Not only as specific for in
digestion and all kindred complaints, but as
household remedy for all the minor ailments incident
to humanity, it has obtained reputation based OF
unimpcachable testimony, which fairly eclipse'
that of any other proprietary oilcna medicine IN

To Cook Dried Beef.

meat after it is poured into the platter.

in the healthy condition and rapid
improvement of his stock. The
turnips can be fed on the field where
they grow, or at least large portion of
them can be fed in this way. But it is
well not to rely on this way of feeding
altogether. When frosts and winter set
in early they freeze, and are covered up
with snow, or, if not destroyed, they can
not be used. A good way to harvest them
is to dig long trenches and bury them /;
then they can be dug up and hauled in
whenever wanted.
Until winter it pays to feed them in the
ground, as it saves the labor of gathering
| them, and manures the soil at the same
time. Sheep thus fed on turnips and mea
