FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Diseases I'm Hogs.

A correspondent of the Southern
Planter says there are but three dis
eases in hogs requiring treatment, which
are mango, cholera and worms in the
kidneys, commonly called breaking down
in the loins. For mango, wash well
with I've soap, and then pot liquor. For
cholera, if you know the disease, as
soon as you see the hog begin to droop
and try to vomit, gag him, and give him
twenty grains of calomel made into a
pill Ii you have been in the habit of
giving your hogs spirits of turpentine,
at the rate of one tablespoonful to the
hog, put it on corn. and you will be
rarely troubled with this fatal disease.
If the first dose of calomel does not
relieve in twenty-four hours repeat the
dose. rarely have to..repeat it if - is adj
ministered in time. We sometimes see
hogs dragging their hind legs. This is
caused by worms in the kidney, and may
be easily cured by giving tablespoon
full of turpentine every morning for
three or four days mixed, with corn.
Hogs which have been feeding on acorns
are most subject to this disease, and
should have the turpentine at least
twice week while feeding on this mast.
Every hog feeder should keep bottle
of the spirits of turpentine, and give 1t
occasionally through the year; he will
find it a great benefit to his hogs. /
have practiced this for twenty years
successfully. 1t seems to be Il specific
food for all hog diseases.

THE Moon AND WEATHER. Almost
everybody believes that the changes Of
the moon influence the weather. But
scientific men laugh at the deluson
Some one has written to the Universal
Monthly to inquire if any changes in the
weather are attributable TO the influence
of the moon. The editor referred the
communication to Commodore Maury
His answer will disappoint n great many
weathcrwisc folks. The changes Of the
moon have no effect upon the weather
The moon changes, says Maury, every
IL days, consequently every change in
the weather must take place within the
period of 3G days either before or after
moon change and her worshippers give
her all the credit for it The moon gov
erns the tides, but not the atmosphere.
The most faithful observers have failed
to detect any tide in The latter, or any
variableness under the moons influence.
30 this yeXod matter may be considered
as set at rest, and we can defy the weather

Of There is no need of an ordinarily
healthy woman growing thin because she
is nursing. Then, again, infants should
be held As little as possible, and trotted
and rocked, never. Accustom your baby
at once to tho bed or crib, and insist,
whatever your nurse may say 10 the con
trary, upon its sleeping alone. Then feed
your baby regularly, and dlsabuse your
mind of the impression that it is hungry
every time il makes anoiso No woman
shsuld nurse her infant oftencr than
twice in night, and at six months this
should be stopped entirely, in order to
guard the mother against the exhaustion
which follows inevitably upon the keep
ing up of this unnatural night drag. Once
in TWO or three hours during the day is
also quite often enough. Bear in mind
! also that your baby wants, and must
have, cold water TO drink daily. Begin
first, and Immediately, with tea spoon
ful, allowing the child to be its own judge
as to the quantity. Give your babies
room enough, and enough to eat Of the
right kind, and good air to breathe and
plenty Of sunshine, and my word on it
you will have no trouble, and mothers
can only do this by taking proper care
Of themselves. The present system of
bringing up children is an abomination (;
