The Ohio Farmer says: "a hog
raiser, and especially a feeder, can
not raise a field of anything that
would pay better than sweet corn.
If planted about the middle of May,
it will be in its prime the first of
August, three weeks ahead Of the
field corn; it yields equally well to
the acre; contains much larger
per cent. of the phosphates or bone
forming principle, and consequent
ly is favorable to the growth OF
hogs" This is an item peculiarly
adapted to Iowa, especially this
season. There is no food SO pala-
table, and that will SO soon make
pigs fit for market, as sweet corn.-
There are farmers who annually
raise from one to two acres of sweet
corn for the raising of spring pigs,
and for those to be fattened for mar
ket it is equally as good. It ex-
pands their stomachs while furnish
ing an abundance of nutriment, and
prepares them to hold large feeds
of ripe corn. The opening hog
market is often the best, and by
feeding sweet corn, hogs can be got
into condition to sell quicker and
better than to wait a month longer
for the field corn. There has been
no mention made of sweet corn as
human food, but some varieties
make the snicest and sweetest bread
for the table,"

Liquid Excrement.

How strangely we overlook the
value Of the liquid excrement OF
our animals! A COW under ordinary
feeding, furnishes, in year, 10000
pounds OF solid excrement, and
5000 pounds of liquid. The COM
parative money value of the two is
but slightly in favor of the solid
This statement has been verified as
the truth. The urine of herbivorous
animals holds nearly all the Secre-
tons of the body which are capable
of producing the rich heterogeneous
compounds SO essential as forcing
or leaf-forming agents in the growth
Of plants. The solid holds the phos-
phoric acid, lime, magnesia, which
go to the seeds; but the liquid, hold
ing nitrogen, potash, soda, is needed
in forming stalk and leaves. The
two forms of plant nutriment should
not be separated or wasted by me-
glect. The farmer who saves all
the urine of his animals, doubles
his manurial resources every year.
Good seasoned peat is Of immense
service to farmers, used as an abb
sorbent, and the stalls for animals
should be so constructed as to admit
of a wide passage in the rear, with
generous passage room for peat

PAY ATTENTION TO THE GARDEN.
Somebody, we don't know who.
has written the following sensible
words:
"No part Of the farm can be made
more profitable. 1t will be surpris-
ing to those who have not tried it,
how much may be obtained from a
well cultivated garden towards
supplying the table all through the
summer and autumn months with
fresh, nutritious and palatable food
the early lettuce, radishes, as
paragus, peas, onions, early pota-
toes, tomatoes, cabbage, beans,
sweet corn, cucumbers, squashes
and melons. Then there are the
fruits; delicious strawberries for
the breakfast or tea table, or for
dessert at dinner, instead of costly
buildings or pies; the raspberry,
currant, or the white or black Thin
bleberry, that will grow on almost
any soil. These are healthful, and
highly appreciated by all, especially
the children, and are altogether
more wholesome than much meat
in hot weather."
