Mr. Reecher IS a Farmer.


Mr.. BeecheT's farm consists Of tbir;y-siz
acres, and is carried on or strict scientific prin-
ciples. He never puts in any part Of a crop
without consulting his book. lie plows aud
reaps aud digs and sows according to the best
authorities-and the authorities cost more than
the other farming implements DO. As soon as
the library is complete, the farm will begin to
be profitable investment But book farming
has its dra backs. Upon one occasion, when
it seemed morally certain that the bay ought
/ to be cut, the hay book could not be found
aud before it was found it was too late and the
hay was AL spoiled.
Mr.. Beechcr raises some of the finest crops
Of wheat in the country, but the uniavorable
difference between the cost of producing it aud
its market value after it is produced, has inter-
fered considerably with its sucecss as cum
mercal enterprise. His special weakness IS
hogs, however. lie considers hogs the best
game a farm produces. He buys the original
pig for dollar and a half, and feeds him forty
! dollars worth of corn, and then sells him Cor
about nine dollars. This is tie only crop be
/ ever makes. money on. lie loses on the corn
| aud makes seven dollars and half on the hog.
! He does not mind this, because he never ex-
poets to make anything on corn any way
/ 1t turns cut he has the excitement Of raising
the hog snyhoS, whether he gets the worth Of
of him or not His strawberries would be a
comfortable success if the robins would cat
turuips, but they won't and hence the difficult
/ ~.
One of Mr. Beccher's most harTasSing diiii-
/ entities in his farming operations comes Of the
close resemblance of difFeren, sorts Of seeds and
plants to each other. Two years ago his far
/ sightedness warned him that there was going
! to be scarcity of watermelonS, and therefore
he put in a crop Of twenty-seven acres Of that
fruit But when they came up they turned
out to be pumpkins, and dead loss was the
consequence. Sometimes portion Of bis crop
/ encs into The ground the most promising sweet
/ potatoes aud comes up the infcrnalist carrots
/ though never have heard him express it
/ lust in that way When he bought his farm,
| he found one egg in every hens nest on the
place He said that here was just the reason
why so many farmers failed-they scattered
their forces too much-conceutration was the
. idea. So he gathered those eggs together aud
put them all under one experienced old hen
/ TIE hen roasted over that contract, night and
day for eleven weeks. under the anxious per-
sonal supervision Of Mr. Bcecher himself, but
she could not phase those eggs Why
Because they were those infamous porcelain
things which arc used by ingenious and fraud
ulent farmers as " nest eggs"
But perhaps Mr. Beecher's most disastrou,
experience was the time he tried to raise an
immense cropof drirl apples He planted
fifteen hundred dollars worth, but never a
ono Of them sproutel He has never been able
to understand to this day what was the matter
with those apples-Hark Train

Dressing Hogs.

st meeting Of tie Delaware lOliol Farm
ers' Club the subject Of slaughtering aud dress
iug hogs was discussed as well as the curing
Of pork. It was recommended that the hog
should be laid on tie back that the party
butcheriua should stard oyerthc hog, left hand
on nose edge If knife towards tire hog; cut
both arteries. three inches ufi lent. five better,
;he main thing is TO bleed wen. Seald as soon
as killyd-twJ hogs to cue ket Ie Of water ;
blood Is il good testc for the water; if too hot
it curdles the blood should be soft, if hard
throw in some ashes; some persons prefer pine
tar or rsiu
Throw bucket Of cold water over the hog
as s,on as scalded-it closes the pores and
wh.tens the skin. When hung up, wash.
scrape upwards, wash again aud wipe with
cloth should be thoroughly washed, scrapci
and wiped; heart or liver should never be en-;
iu the h,-; take entrai!s out 70 jugular vein,
then take the veia heart aud liver ont.
TIE pork should he slightly sal,ed for two
OF three days, skin down, and iheu turned and
covered with salt; pat in brine for thirty days
ormelium-sizcdha ham; brineshouldte brought
10 sc4ld, but used cold brine should be pre-
served. Old brine is The best, but should be
boiled aud SKINNED before used salt should
be well rubbed in coarse salt the best, not
safe 10 use salt in the bottom Of the barrel after
having stood for sometime; eight pounds salt,
five pounds sugar, aud one-hurth pound salt
peter to one hundred pounds meat IS tie best
recipe.

Strangers round her dg5cried,
From her home with fond display,
Went she forth to Be a bride.
Followed the kindly crowd;
In dim Clthod-a, aisle,
Heard har speak her vows aloud,
Heard her vows, and saw her smile.

captain sent the horse to a aliyery stable, but
when he went there himscft to get him. he was
told that no human being dared to approach
him to lead him ont that his heels few Ike
lightning at all who came near him; that he
had nearly mashed ono man to death against

him; aud that he bit at people as sayagcly
as a mad dog One hostler bolder than the
ret attempted to mount him from the top Of

gold enough in the Treasury to meet the adverse
balances of six months foreign trade. II no
more bonds should be exported, and the gold in
the Treasury should be substituted in their
place, the supply of gold would soon be ex-
hausted, and the price run up to enormous and
frightful figures. 1t was in view of this result
to which the policy of Mr. Boutwell, rs first an
nounced, inevitably tends, that gold to his great
amazement and CONSERVATION, rapidly advanced
when he expected il to decline.
Stunned and bewildered by this unexpected
recoil of his own engine, the Secretary has re-
sorted to an eXpedient obvious enough, and
which for a time can be made effective enough
for arresting the strong upward tendency of
gold 80 long as his reservoir in the Treasury
is uneXhausted, he can always, by pouring It
out fast enough, create supply of gold in the
market in excess of the demand, and bring
down the price. But if he continues at the
same time to buy bonds and arrest their ex-
portation, the gold will Immediately find its way
abroad, and he can keep down the price only
for the brief period necessary to exhaust the
Treasury. Then gold will 90 up with an elastic
and uncomfortable bound; the importation of
goods will be stopped in default of any resource
for payment; there will be no further repleni5h-
ing of the Treasury with gold the Government
will lack the means of paying the interest on
the public debt; confidence will be shaken; the
Treasury will be forced to resell mt n ruinous
discount the bonds it has been purchasing; and
distress panic, and bankruptcy will overspread
the country. Mr. Boutwell, is plunging headOng
towards these hideous consequences by the
jerky, itful measures which he adopts in his
desperate endeayor to arrest the advance in gold.
