EeediHu S,rine in Sum Dser.

Now the true way to fatten pigs, al
any season of the year, is to give a por
ton of coarse food, such as turDips
beets, carrots, potatoes, cooked clover
hay, or grass, the last being the natural
food of the pig, and in summer always at
hand. While in cold weather it is neces-
sary to resort to roots, which have re-
quired manual labor to grow, in summer
the pig can get its own grass, and only
requires a moderate allowance of grain
to keep it growing rapidly and have it
ready for the knife when grass ceases to
grow. If we take all the hogs fattened
in the United States in a year, and
change the time of fattening from cold
to warm weather, one-helf of the grain
now fed will make all the pork. This
would be saving of food, at least, to the
amount of s75,OOO,O per year.--South-
era Farmer.

Treatment of Hog Cholera.

Mr.. j. c. Long, of Jasper county, Mo-,
says: Years ago | lest thousands of
dollars worth of hogs, but for the last
six years have not lost any, and have
a remedy | will warrant. Ihave tried it
in thousands of cases and never had a
failure. 1 am now engaged in buying
lots of hogs where cholera prevails;
bought $50 recently and found no
trouble in curing them. My remedy is
this: Make concentrated I've into good
soap by the usual rule take one pail of
the soap to fifty hogs; put it in kettle,
add water and two pounds of copperas,
boil it; then add dish-water and milk,
or anything to taste good, till you have
about what the hogs will drink. Place
enough of the mixture, while warm, for
% hogs to drink, in troughs, in separ-
ate lot. Just when ready to let the hogs
in, scatter two pounds of soda in the
troughs; the object is to have it foaming
as the hogs come to drink. Be sure that
every hog drinks, and if he will not
drink. put him in the hospital; and if
you cannot get him to drink, then knock
him in the head, for he will give the
cholera to the rest. After % have had
AL they will Drink, let in rs more, and
continue till the whole are treated. The
next day l go through with the same
operation. After the second day skip a
day, then give for two days, and you may
turn them out cured. generally give
the same dose once a week to my hogs.
An important point is to make the hog
drink, and, il he will not take it any
other way, add new milk or put in sugar.

A FINE DISPLAY BAIL LIGHT
MING.
fectually.

A very fine display of ball lightning
was witnessed at Ncnce, in the southeast
of France, en- the night of March 2l-22,
by NJ. Ed. Blanc, of which an interesting
detailed account has just appeared. To-
ward midnight there was observed about
eleven miles northeast of Venice large
black thunder cloud in state of ex-
treme agitation, and continually raising
and lowering its position. AT the upper
part of this cloud three or four balls Of
FIRE issued every two minutes, as if from
the invisible centre of the cloud, diverg.
ing in all directions, and after running a
course from six to eight degrees, broke
silently with effulgent brightness. Their
apparent diameter, as seen at distance
of eleven miles, Was about degree.
They were mostly of reddish color,
few, however, being of yellowish tinge,
but all of them assumed white color in
he act of bursting. Their course. which
was horizontal and parallel TO the plane
of the cloud, was relatively slow, not ex-
ceeding two degrees per second, and
they bore strong resemblance to i'm
mense soap bubbles, both as regards ap-
parent lightness and general appearance.
From time to time a discharge of light
ming passed through the cloud from
above downward, followed some seconds
afterward by a dull rumbling sound.
The cloud, with its fine display of fire
balls, took a course from east to west,
passing about league to the north of
Venice. The glimmering of the light
ming with its low dull thunderous sound
continued for more than an hour, after
which the sky became darker and
darker rain mixed with hailstones fell,
and lightning, accompanied With thur
der, furrowed the sky in all directions.-
