BEST BREED OF HOGS.

In answer to an INQUIRY which Is the
best breed Of hogs. an Ohio breeder gives
the following reasons for naming the Po-
land China as such breed,
1. They do not get NANCY. have
never had one that was troubled this way !;
and this is something Of so much importance
that il should not be overlooked BY any
farmer that knows anything Of the evil
2. This breed is excellent on account Of
itsearly fattening qualities; aud yes for It's
continued growth il has 20 equal When
one nine or ten months old viii readily
fstten into clear pork. weighing 500 Iounds
or more. Or they will eontlnure TO grow
until twenty months old, and then weigh.
when fattened. from $50 10 SIS pounds.
5. IL is the best feeder on clover and
blue grass that know Of. have witness
cd test experiments which went to show
that hogs Of this breed will make more gain
and thrive better on grass alone han those
Of any other breed.
4. They are naturally quiet at all times.
unless CONTRARY spirit Is stirred mp BY
abuse. They fatten we'll. eating their all
and then lying down. The sows are good
and prolific breeders, kind 10 litter and
good sucklers.
8. claim that the Poland China Is the
hog for the packers. because Of the propof-
tiOn Of weight behind the shoulders and
The amount Of high-priced meat il carries.
and eorrespOndingly small amount ofoffal
produced. 1t has small head and snail
feet.
6. 1t is the breed that We can do the
most with between April and January. 4
claim that pigs should come when grass in
ihe spring begins to grow. 80 that they can
be fattened without having to winter them.
Or. if We deem it good policy TO bold them
sver. we want them to keep on growing
during the second sumner with the least
cost.
believe the Poland China isths hog
for the farmer. Il is small-bcned and
long.bodied. Ii has short legs and broad
straight back Il has deep sides. with square
heavy hams and shoulders; ii has dropping
ears aud fne hair. in color nearly always
spotted black.

A VERY HEAVY FLEECE AND WHAT
WAS IN 1T.

At tolerably regular intervals par
agraphs may be noticed circulating
through the papers concerning heeces
Of California wool of astonishing
weight. The descriptions are unnsu-
ally minute and circumstantial, and
seemingly authentic, but they are
open to doubt, for all that. One OF
these marvellous Aeeces has lately been
subjected to a critical examination,
with what result appears from the fol.
lowing paragraph in the Rroiriie
Farmer: y. ...->.:..
'Some months ago, it will be remember
ed, fleece of wool was sent to- this State
from California, which passed for the heav.

placed in the hands Of committee of the
Wool Growers Association with instructions
to have it secured and report upon the re.
suit at the next meeting of the association.
The committee reported At Ottawa the other

THE CENTENNIAL.

An English paper thus comments
upon the approaching exhibition {:
"Now, in 1876, America first enters
into the field Of competition. The
Philadelphia Exhibition will be not
alone an exhibition Of American pro-
ducts and manufactures, Of native in
dustry and art, placed side by side
with and in contrast to the produc-
tions Of. nature and man throughout
the steeming earth, but also of the
brain and hand Of other peoples.
America is not yet \ single century
odd ~ a'nationI Its population was
spane' and its wealth small. when SOW
essignt independence was declared.
Literally, the national existence may
be said to date from the last day Of
November, 1882, when Benjamin
Franklin signed the provisional treaty
Of peace, by which Great Britain &C.
knowledged the independence Of the
United States. Take it in any way,
however, and the simple fact remains,
that next year the International Cen
tennial Exhibition, in which America
completes with all other empires, king
doms, States, nominations and pow
ers, must in every way surpass those
which attracted SO much attention and
admiration in London in 1851, in
Paris in 1867, and in Vienna in
1879"

SHEEP KILLED BY DOGS.

According to the returns of the
Department of Agriculture, the direct
losses Of sheep-owners by, the ravages
Of dogs reach a million of dollars an
nually in wool and mutton,a and the
indirect loss in the repression Of sheep
husbandry, and the consequent waste
Of a large percentage Of the grass crop
is still larger. Reports from 500
counties, representing about one-
fourth of the sheep Of the. United
States, show a total Of 70,285 sheep
killed during 1874; and even these
returns are not complete: In some Of
the States the loss is. from four to
eleven per cent Of the whole value Of
the sheep kept. In Some states the
loss is comparatively small; though
larger than it ought to be-. This
should not bear against dogs general
ly but against sheep: dogs, a tribe
