Until young pigs are week old, we eX-
pect the SOW to furnish all the food the pigs
require for unless she can do so she is not
fit to be breeder. And here | would say
something about the selection of good
breeding SOW. First select the best, as far
as can be judged from outward appearances,
with Il good sound constitution. When the
SOW has the first litter, if she throws good
pigs, sound and lively, and can furnish a
good flow of milk, then she should he kept
as a breeder; if she can not suckle her young
properly, cannot supply enough milk to
keep the young porkers in good, healthy
condition, for the first week at least, then she
should be discarded. If this were generally
observed we would have much better swine
than we now have.
When the young pigs are about a week old,
have small or low trough put where the
little pigs can get to it at all times, yet out
of reach of the old sow. The young pigs
will soon learn to eat out of it, and thus
help fatten themselves and relieve the moth
er. We first give skim milk, after which
sour or thick milk is given. The trough
should be kept well supplied, 50 the pigs
can have as much and as often as they wish
This is the true way to feed pig, and the
sooner begun the more profitable.
AS to the age to wean pigs, many breeders
difisr, some saying not until eight weeks,
while Others vean them at four weeks. We
have weaned them at four weeks with no
bad results, but think six weeks is better

We sometimes hear farmers remark that,
ploughing deep, they get less grain; that,
bringing up the new mellow soil, their crops
suffer. 1t would be very strange if this was
not the case; for this soil, even if ever so
mellow, is raw, just like manure when it is
green or long. 1t is not yet converted or
changed into plant-food. 1t needs just what
the long manure needs-to be changed by
the heat and the air-that is, decomposed
or rotted.
When the top-soil is less fertile than it
used to be when the land was first titled,
you may rest assured that this under soil is
always better than the upper soil because
the upper has deteriorated, while the under
has not, but rather improved.
Z, 1t is, therefore, inadyisable, nay suicidal in
some soils, to turn up deeply the under
ground in the spring or in the fall at sowing
time. The cold cherries ground will not
help the grain, and were it no: for the other
soil mixed with it, an almost total failure
would be the result.
But turn it up in the fall, and let the
frost and the elements take hold of it, and
you have another soil it is turned into ma
nure, a good part Of it. A little lime mixed
with it, scattered and narrowed in, or manure
or both, would faciliatate the process. In
the spring sow, either with or without anoth'
er ploughing, and you will find no more oc'
casion TO complain. Wehaye great fertility
to draw upon from below, but it requires
naging,-ECeaiag Post,

Ticht Cheek npins.

At one Of the meetings Of the society for
the protection of the animals the opinion
was expressed that the use of very tight
check reins on draft horses, was gradually
going out of fashion with us. An individ-
ual who processes to know all about it says
if a horse pulling a load finds n check rein
holding back his head he cannot throw his
weight into his collar, and is hindered from
giving his body that position which is the
most natural and effective. He has to pull
by the strength of his muscles only; the
weight of his body is lost, and so much
pulling strength thrown away, while what
remains is exerted at great expenditure OF
the horses power and health, to say nothing
of his comfort. The consequence is that his
limbs and muscles become strained aud dis
torted, his knees are bowed forward and his
hooks backward If "A man pulls load by
strap across his shoulders, he bends his
head and chest forward, and relieves his
legs; horse does the same when he can, and
ought always 10 be allowed to do 50. In
addition tying up a horses head in this way
will interfere with his breathing and with
the circulation of the blood in the head,
while the heart and lungs are excited by
work This makes the horse feel very
uncomfortable, restless and irritable; and
his "head ache, and pains him, and he
gets many yiolentiag and blow just be-
cause his driver cannot understand the
cause OF his rcsticspess. | have seen many
horses standing at public house doors and
other places in this uneasy state, and by aud
by set oil in their desire to get home and be
embarrassed, when the driver has rushed
out and punished the horse for his own
error" The same writer enlarges also, OF
course, upon the influence of the tight check
rein in straining the muscles of the horses
neck, thus firing him out and making him
restless. lie declares that the horse will
sometimes rest the weight of his head on the
rein, stretching his mouth to escape the
other torment, and that many splendid horse'
incessantly toss their heads and champ theil
mouths into a foam from the intolerable un
edsiness of the tight check rein.

Tne question as to size Of bins is not so

well from barrel to l.G00 baskets in one

be we'll ventilated, especially from four to
six weeks after storing, while undergoing
their sweats, avoiding too much direct draft.
Some varieties are much harder than others.
The Short Nansemond variety is as hardy as
any 1t is very desirable to keep the cellars
at one temperature. | generally separate
my bins with common inch boards. One
foot of air space between the potatoes and
ceiling is sufficient for the circulation of air.

potato bins should be tight all around, rest

them. For few weeks after housing let
the windows be left open, with wire screens
in them, to protect against rats and mice,
1t is very important that the potatoes to be

THE CAsR OF JUDGE sHERRARD.

In the Court of Impeachment, yester-
day, the question of the competency OF
Judge SHERRARD to sit as member OF
the Court, was raised. The ground upon
which the inquiry was raised is: Does
Senator who has, since taking his seat as
such Senator, qualified AS President
tor judge of County Court, forfeit his
position rs Senator?
W. understand that there IL no differ
eye. r. opinion as To the construction Of
,te r-.y.-ion of the Constitution. A
person go ,iluatgd certainly does forfeit
hi, position u- which he qualified last.
And. indeed It is not certain but in at
,emptingro hold both he forfeits both.
Judge SHERRARp admits the fact that
be does hold both positions; but claims
that he qualified as Senator since no quail
fed as President of the Court.
This i. contradicted, Mr.. SHERRARD
was elected TO both positions on the %-hu
day of August, 1872. He qualified and
took his seat as Senator on the 10th day
Of November of that year He parLici-
p.ted, AZ Senator, in enacting the law
for the government of County Courts;
and after the passage of the law, he OBJ
tanned from the Senate leave of absence
for the purpose of going home to qualify
As President Of tn" County Court.
ltis probable however, that the Sem
ate, As = court, cannot act upon the
question: but it II clearly the duty of the
Senate as legislative body, to purge
itself of all those who illegally occupy
Is.t, in that body. And if the attention
Tthe Senate is brought to the question
IN Apropor way, it will be bound To so
plrs, Itself.

TRAMP Question In ohio.

COLUMBUS, December SIN answer
TO call OF the city council OF Lima,
State convention to consider the tramp
question WAS held hero to-day. Seventy
eight delegates, representing twenty tivo
cities and towns, were present. A mum
ber of short addresses were made, the
pith Of each being that the system OF
tramping had grown to such an extent as
to make it a question Of grert Importance
to the people. The tone Ofthe speeches was
that the whole system of tramplng was
contrary 20 good morals, and should be
suppressed; that each county should caro-
Tor its poor, and no able bodied man who
would not work should be allowed to
eat the bread of charity. Resolutions
were adopted declaring that large class
of persons exist in Ohio properly belong
ing to the vagrant class, and who live by
preying upon their nelghborsi that tins
is n growing evil that must be eradicated:
by furnishing employment to this class
of such character as TO make their labor
r.muncrative. To this end the plan of
establishing workhousos in all cities and
towns sufficiently large to MAINTAIN them
is recommended, and additional LegisIa-
turc. by which any district composed OF
ono or tm" townships, may bo outhor''od
tn erect such houses, or to form cham
gang, is to be asked for, and that
the magistrates bo given author
ity TO arrest all, ysgrants, and
upon CONVICTION to commit them to these
work houses, which may also be used for
persons convicted of petty offences. That
this system of work houses to be etiec-
tive must extend over tho whole Statei
that the furnishing of free transportation
for tramps from one point to another IS
disposed Of; that after the warehouses
are established private charity to va
grants should entirely cease and that the
proper authorities should be authorized
to employ persons committed to work
houses on the public highway or at other
labor outside the workhouse property.
The Convention was earnest and orderly
