Experiment, on Corn and Pork

We could multiply such experiments to an
indefinite extent, but the results will not dif.
fer materially from all such whore the condi.
tions are similar. Probably, taking all the
accurate trials together, the general average
would be about l0l pounds Of pork to a
busheI of corn Of SO pounds, and from this
it is fair to deduct about oue.flth to get at
the net weight, leaving, say about S 20 or
40 pounds Of pork as the average net result
of the judicous feeding Of bushel Of corn,
or one pound of pork from 6 23 pounds OF
corn uncooked The lowest amount of cooked
corn meal is stated at 3 4-5 pounds to q
pound Of pork, which is not far from what it
was stated recently.
Now taxing all these experiments We can
easily show the relation which the price Of
corn bears to that Of pork, by showing the
price Of PORK per polnd, at different prices
per bushel for corn. II corn were l2I ceuts
bushel, pork would cost n cent and a half
per pound.
With corn at 80 cents per bushel, Just
about the necessary cost Of raising it in New
England, according to DR.. Nichols aud Mr..
johnson, pork will cost 95.l00 cents per
pound II corn costs seventy cents per bushel,
the pork will cost s 36-l00 cents a pound TO
produce, and so on. But there are many who
cannot raise corn at fifty cents bushel, aud
many who cbnnot raise il for seventy cents,
though DR.. Nichols testified before the State
Board Of Agriculture at Fall RIVER, short
time ago, that his corn had cost him on an
average but As cents a bushe to raise aud
Mr.. johnson, Of birmingham, raised it the
past summer, at cost Of 43 cents aud a
fraction per bushel.- PioRgbmaa.

Berkshire Pigs.

The Berkshire aud Essex are both black
breeds, each of which has its advocates and
admirers, who claim that the Berkshire or
other breed. Tne chief use Of these thor.
ough-bred animals is to cross with and i'm.
prove our common stock and for this pur.
pose If the bears be thoroughbred, it makes
but little difference which breed is chosen
In England where the breeds originated, the
Berkshire is preferred for furnishing hams
and bacon, while the Essex is considered the
best for fresh pork. Crosses of either breed
with good common sows, produce pigs much
"rehued IN form, and able to fatten rapidly
while at Strengthening they yield minimum
amount Of ofal. The Berkshire are covered
with long, silky hair, and 10 the best exam.
pies have four white feet, a spot upon the
forehead, and white on the end Of the tail ;
all the rest being black save very small
amount Of white behind each shoulder. The
Berkshires-and the same may be said Of
other pure breeds-haye only within CON.
paratiyely few years been appreciated 10 this
country. They were introduced here some
thirty or forty years ago, at which time there
was great excitement over the breed, and
specimens sold at enormous prices. Our far
mers had not learned that these animals had
reached their then state Of perfection through
the greatest care in breeding aud keeping
aud when these high bred animals were sub.
jected to the treatment given ordinary swine,
they disappointed their owners aud the breed
fell into dlsrepuie. Doubtless, since the first
introduction Of Berkshires, the English breed
ers have much improved the breed and the
specimens now in the hands Of our own stock
fanciers are much superior to those about
which 30 much was said thirty years ago

Farm Labor.

A question Of very great Importance is
that OF fam labor. Joseph Harris, in the
American Agriculturst, discusses one phase
of it as follows
We must make up our minds to pay men
as much for working on the farm as they can
earn in other pursuits. 1t We only want
men for six or eight mouths, aud that during
the busiest season, We must be prepared to
pay higher than those who give constant emu
ployment.
We shall never have reliable labor until
we make it worth good mans while to stay
with us year after year. And We can do IL
great deal to induce such men to settle ia the
country by building and renting small houses,
or by selling an acre or two Of land to some
steady married man who wants TO own a home
Of his own. There are many such men who
would rather work on farm than at any
other employment, who are absolutely COM
PEELED to leave the country, and 20 into cities
and villages because they cannot get a house
to live in. And, as result, we frequently
have to pay men for twenty to thirty per cent
more per day than they get in the immediate
neighborhood Of city.
Farmers have this matter entirely Il their
own hands. They must either build houses,
or sell land to those wishing to build. Every
good, honest, industrious, married man who
settles in the country increases the value Of
farm property. The greater the population,
if of the right kind, the greater the value of
land. We cannot too often remember that it
is labor and not land that produces wealth
1t is u loss to the community to have mnn
lie idle all winter Aud in the country there
is certainly no lack of employment for any
man who will work at reasonable wages.
