When to Make Pork.

Don't forget that warm weather is the time
TO make pork. There is but little profit in
feeding hogs, SO far as pork making is con-
cerued, when the thermometer is down to
zero Remember this, aud commence feed
ing early. Hogs that are to be marketed this
year ought now to be in fair condition, and
should be fed unspuriDgly from this time on
until ready for the market. The great mass
of western farmers rely entirely upon our sta
pie, corn. for a fattening food, for this pur-
pose. With large majority of feeders the
growing crops is depended upon to fit the
hogs now on hand for the market, and when
this is the case they should commence just
as soon as the corn is hard enough to be of
service. But when there is a suficien t
quantity of old corn on hand, it will be found
more profitable to continue its use until the
new crop is thoroughly ripened.
If the hogs tire of it in its hard, dry form,
it will be found profitable to she'll it from the
cob, and then soak it-say about twelve
hours-before feeding, for few days, and
then return to dry corn. The great secret OF
successful porkmak ing lies in keeping the
appetite of the hog in good condition, then
supplying it beautifully with CORD, and max
ing your pork before the advent of cold

FIELD AND FIRESIDE.
Barreling Celery.

have Just been reading G. F. N. in the
las. number of the Country Gentleman"
upon the cultivation of celery. As supple-
mental thereto, let me give hint to those
who grow only 500 or 400 plants for family
use. Celery can be perfectly kept during the
winter in trenches ; in fact, | have often Ia
ken it out in fine condition while spading up
my garden for spring planting. But it is
often not so convenient to get to it in the
middle of winter with the surface of the
ground as hard as adament. a much more
convenient way of storing small quantity is
as follows: Knock out both heads of a bar
rel, and sink it about three quarters in the
ground, vertically lift the celery carefully,
and place it in the barrel in an UPRIGHT po-
stion, packing the roots as closly together as
possible. Draw up the earth in bank
around the outside OF the one fourth of the
barrel that is above ground, to keep out frost
throw little light litter over the celery, and
increase the covering before snow falls, put
over the whole any convenient covering oil
boards, old carpet, oilcloth, &c to keep out
snow and rain. In mid winter, it will be
found very easy matter to go out, lift your
board or carpet, pull out hand or two OF
the litter Gree of snow or ice,) take up what
celery you wish. and replace the litter aud
covering. a barrel will hold from sixty to
seventy FIVE plants.
