The Pig.

Black or flesh colored pigs are freest
from skin disease in hot climates. TIE
choice is practically between the Essex
and Berkshires for males with which to i'm
prove the native stock of hardy grubbers
of the root-or-die variety. Those who
have tried the former have been delighted
at first, but after few years began to re-
call with longing the lean hams and the
slim but solid and f1avorous bacon of the
old race-horse breed. The trouble with
the Essex pigs for the south is that they
are not active enough. They are the eat
and-sleep and wake-to. eat kind, and their
grades are, of course, like them. The side
tat is superb, and so is the leaf lard, and so
far the breed is all that could be desired;
but the hams and shoulders are too fat for
profit, and the ham is not marbled with
tat like the Berkshires. These (the Berks)
are much more enterprising, more>wide
awake less easily controlled, but good for
ayers. Their grades are wonderful i'm
provement on the original stock, may be
made very fat, and yet the proportion be-
tween the fat and lean in the hams, shout
ders, and side pork or bacon, is such as to
develop and preserve the excellencies of
the meat. The hams are large, rich and
juicy, with diffused fat. Berkshires are
not quite so easily tattened when penned
and systematically fed as the Essex grade,
but they will take much better care of
themselves in the woods, and when penned
or fastened for fattening. may be finished
off with half the feed the original land
pixies" would require.
With many northern and western breed
ers, the Essex is more profitable pig then
the Berkshire, because his nature leads him
to take little exercise, so that all he eats
goes to flesh and fat. Respiration, which,
if rapid, reduces fat greatly, is with him
never accelerated by moving about, and
with plenty of feed, the sole burden of life
is to digest it. This breed is pre- eminent
among the black breeds, and excelled by
none as fat producers.-American Agricul-
turiSt.

A Kicking Cow.

The best remedy for kicking COWS is
continued kind and gentle treatment
This is the most powerful agent which can
be brought to bear in controlling them. I
know of no place where the Injunction to
return good for evil is more efficacious
than in the treatment of cows which kick,
or start, or are uneasy, or fractions, because
they are in some way hurt or disturbed
The first thing to be done when a COW
kicks is for the manager to "keep cool."-
If he cannot do so he had better step aside
and let another, who can, take his place
He is entirely unfit for Lis position, and is
out of place in the milking barn. Ifhe
can master himself, the next thing to be
done is to ascertain the cause of the mis-
conduct on the part of the animal. A cow
seldom kicks unless she is in some way
hurt or made uncomfortable or disturbed
with excitement or fright. Remove the
cause of hurting or uneasiness, posi-
BILE, before attempting to milk. If the teats
or udder are sore, wash them in warm wa
ter, or rub them with oil or some emollent,
to make them soft and piable, so that the
hurting shall be removed or made as light
as possible. IF from anxiety about her calf
or relation to the rest of the herd, or from
fright, place her before attempting to milk
where those causes will be out of her way,
and then with quiet treatment and sooth-
ing tones let the milking proceed careful
ly and as rapidly as is consistent with COM
fort and in almost every case the vicious
habit and disposition will be overcome

Farming for Unemployed LabOrers.

The only branch of labor which is not
overdone and which offers independence
and fairly remunerative reward for toll and
not attractive. Those out of work in the
cities and towns don't want to return to the
farm. The most of them would rather live
on charity and in miserable squalor than
try to make living by cultivating the
earth. They are infatuated with the sights
and sounds and designations of city life.
There is room in the Northwest for farm
ers and farm hands, there are thousands of
comfortable homes for men and women, and
for families, on the farms of the West,
Northwest and Southwest. 1t does not
require much capital but it requires resolu-
ton and willingness to live soberly and
honestly; and men and women who are
now living in cities in squalid poverty, de-
pendent on public charity with families
growing up in paupersm, might find hap
Ply and plentiful homes beyond the cities if
they could free themselves of the fascination
of city life.
How to induce this starving, destitute,
surplus labor of the cities to take the
healthful, remuneratve employment which
is offered them on the farms, is question
worthy of the profoundest consideration
No revival of business in our day is likely
ever again to furnish work and wages to
the vast surplus town population now idle,
and to the myriads on the farms of Europe
waiting the signal of reviving times to
flock to the cities of America Chicago

4 Joke That Missed Fire.

Cooley's oldest boy is little too fond of
playing practical jokes. The other evening
he went up into the third story back room
in which the hired man sleeps, and, fixing
a piece of stout Irvine to the bed clothes,
ran it down stairs into his own room, with
the intent to remove the covers from the
hired man as soon as that Individual got
into bed. The Cooleys had just taken
down their winter stoves, and had the par,
lor stove standing temporarily at the head
of the third-story stairs. The man discov.
cred the string just as he was retiring, and,
comprehending the motive of the intended
trick, he quietly united it, and fastened it
to the stove. The boy, meantime, had gone
to bed, and forgotten about the string
But about ten o'clock Mr.. Cooley, who was
up stairs getting apples in the garnet,
caught his foot in the string as he was com
ing down the steps.
He fell and pulled the stove over after
him, and the next moment Cooley, pan of
apples, and about forty pieces of stove
stovcpipe, CRATES, and brick lining, were

volley of musketry. AS Cooley lay on the

Alice Carey's Sweetest Poem.
OF all the beautiful pictures
That hang on mcmory's wall,
Is one ola dim old forest,
That seemeth best of all.
Not for its knared oak olden,
Dark with the mistctoc,
Not for the violets golden,
That sprinkled the vale below.
Not for the milk-white lilies,
That lean from the fragrant hedge;
Coquettng all day with the sunbeams,
And stealing their golden edge.
Not for the vines on the upland,
Where the bright red berries rest
Nor the pinks, nor the pale sweet cowslip,
1t seemeth TO me the best.
l once had a little brother
With eyes that were dark and deem;
In the lay of that golden forest,
He lieth in peace asleep.
Light as the down of the thistle,
Free as the winds that blow;
We roved in the beautiful summers,
The summers of long ago.
But his feet on the hills grew weary,
And one of the autumn ewes
l made for my little brother,
A bed Of the yellow leaves.
Sweetly his pale arms folded
My neck in a meek embrace.
AS the light of the immortal beauty,
Silently covered his face.
And when the hours of sunset,
Lodged in the tree tops bright,
He fell in his saint-lke beautk,
Asleep by the gates of light.
Therefore of all the pictures,
That hang on memory's wall,
The one of the dim old forest,
Seemeth best of all.

LIME AND SALT.-Prof johnson recon-
mends for tertilizine purposes to mix one
bushel of salt and two of dry lime under
cover; allow mixture to decompose grad
tally, thus forming chemical union. For
this purpose the mixture should he made
six weeks before use, or still better two or
three months, the heap being turned over
occasionally. This salt and lime mixture,
when applied at the rate of twenty or thir
ty bushels per acre, forms an excellent top
dressing for many crops. 1t acts power
fully on the vegetable matter of soils; fifty
six bushels applied to turnips have pro-
duced as large crop as banyard manure.
1t is destructive to grubs and insects in
the soil. Like salt it attracts moisture
from the air and is useful against drouth.
Its decomposing power is remarkable, and
if three or four bushels of it are mix d
with load of muck the latter will be
thus thoroughly powdered
