Mixed Farming.

A contributor to the RWul New
Yorker writes on this subject as
follows:
clam an advocate of mixed farm
ing. | believe it better for farmer
to depend on several crops for his
money than on n alone for, how
often does some particular crop be-
come a complete failure: Then
where are the funds coming from
to meet store bills, pay taxes, the
minister and printer? Some years
there is so much of one product
raised hat it is very low, and if you
happen to depend wholly on that
crop, where + You then?
Now if you practice mixed hus-
blndry it is entirely different for
you are almost certain of some crop
selling fora good price; hence, you
a be on a surer footing than If
you raised simply one kind Of crop,
especially if your capital is limited F;
for then you cannot afford to wait
until another crop a grow /; c
cordingly | believe it always the
surest and best plan, for the young
farmer especially, to grow a variety
Of crops. The most independent
farmeris the one who has more than
n crop to depend on. The farm is
a place where all different varieties
Of food can be raised, and it seems
to me the object Of the farmer
should be to grow all, or nearly all
Of such kinds of food as he will need
to consume in his family and feed
to the stock; or; IN other words, let
nothing be bought that can be
bought hat can be grown on the
farm at a fair cost.
If we can raise wheat at 80 cents
per bushel, can we afford to buy it
at $1.25? or if we can raise our
meet at five dollars per Numbered,
can We afforp to buy it at eight cents
a pound? Let a farmer who has
practiced mixed husbandry for a
term Of years, turn his attention
to, and labor wholly upon one crop
and if hedoes not deny himself som
Of his customary Injuries | shall be
very much mistaken"

Shrinkage Of Corn.

The follow statement or the OK
periments Of J. L. Thomas, one OF
the most observant farmers OF this
country, is worthy the attention OF
corn growers. lie SAYS corn IN the
ear after an unusually damp season
was weighed the first Of january,
and By the following October had
lost one-tifth part Of its bulk. The
weight Of corn IN the ear, OF the
Northern Light variety, varied all
the way from siXty-elght to seven
ty-tive pounds, to yield q shelled
bushel Of sixty pounds. Ears with
small cobs. well dried, afford scarce
" eight pounds of cobs 70 the bush
eli; with larger cobs, freshly husked,
they may weigh twelve or thirteen
pounds. A moist cob is of course.
far heavier than It dry one; hence
farmers that sell corn IN the a
should know the amount of loss
from drying. As a general rule 81
per bushel for corn in the ear III
summer is no better than seventy
five cents at huSklnS time. SOlu
in the ear corn should always be
weighed, not measured. a full,
compact, heaped half bushel of
moderate size, eight rowed ears
contained fifty-six ears, weighing
twenty-four pounds: thrown IN
loosely and heaped there were only
forty-four ears weighing nineteen
pounds. Shelled ORR shrinks n
bulk and looses in weight by
long drying. In one cas- it lost
1.2O of its bulk and 1.l3 Of its
weight in three weeks, in a room
heated by a stove. 1t would loose
more in greater time and It
would be better to sell shelled corn
early in winter at SO cents than the
following spring at 81.

ty Of bone and muscle forming food
and ample opportunity for exer-
else. If permitted the run of a
good pasture Glover Is the best) a
moderate supply Of corr will do
them good, and aid in promoting a
healthy growth; but is the circum-
stances of the breeder are such that
he cannot have the benefit of pas
ture for his pigs, then he must en-
deavor to supply a substitute by
using a variety Of food-suck as
skinned milk, wheat middlings,
ground eats, mixed with oil meal
occasionally. \ most excellent
food may be prepared by mixing
six parts of good peas with five ! arts
of good peas with five parts of good
peas with five parts of corn meal
and one part Of oil meal; OF the
peas, corn and flax seed may be
cooked and fed without grinding if
desired. Oats and pear ground
together and cooked make an ex-
cellent food. Cooked potatoes
mixed with corn meal make a good
combination; IN short, all the vari-
Gus grains and roots raised on the
farm may be used to advantage IN
raising pigs, and they should near
ly all be used when the pigs are not
allowed the run of a good pasture.
A variety of food, such as is above
suggested. fed literally and accom-
panied by plenty of exercise, will
promote u healthy and symmetri-
cal development and also insure a
steady growth.
Such a course Of feeding rs over
loads the pig with fat, or forces
him to an unnatural growth, is
quite likely to result in loss Of the
reproductive powers. Great dlsap-
pointment has often resulted from
the purchase of unnaturally forced
pigs at fairs by inexperienced breed
ers. The writer himself has bought
his knowledge dearly-having on
several occasions paid extravagant
prices for premium pigs and found
them utterly sterile, and long since
adopted the practice of requiring a
special guarantee whenever pur-
chasing one that had been Gifted
for the fairs"

Pigs for Breeders and Pigs
for Pork.

Pigs designed for breeding pur-
poses require a different treatment
from those intended to be convert
ed into pork at an early age. In
the latter case, the most rapid fore
ing is the most economical method
of treatment, while in the former, a
steady, healthy growth is all that
should be aimed at. AS remarked
in a former article in these col
umns, pork can be made more rap
idly and more cheaply with any Of
our improved breeds Of hogs, dur
ring the first 10 months of the
pigs life, than any subsequent pc
Rod; but this implies higher feed
ing than is compatible with a
healthy Development of the vital
organs and OF the bony structure.
When early convention into pork is
the object, the pigs should be fed
mainly on concentrated food the
object being to grow fesh-corn,
variously prepared, being the most
available as a basis, while with
those designed for breeding pur-
pose, or to be kept to mature age
before being fattened for pork,
such a course will not prove a prof
liable one.
Pigs that.are to be keptfor breed.
ers should have mixed diet-plen-

WORKING CoLTs.-A great many
horses are spoiled while young !;
that is, they sustain injuries in vari-
Gus ways, which in after life, render
them more or less useless. These
injuries are frequently caused by
carelessness but more frequently
by ignorance on the part Of the per-
son who has the care of them. One
great cause of injury originates in
working them when too young.
Many think that as 500 as a colt
has attained sufficient size, it is in
a condition to work, and is accord
ingly put to the test. In some
cases this will answer, but not often,
for it is not the size of the horse
altogether that shows it is in a fit
condition to work, but other things
must be taken into consideration as
we'll. The frame OF a colt when
young is IN the same condition as
that of a child. The bones are, to
a more or less extent, cartilaginous.
consequently any constant strain,
unnatural position or other improp-
er movement, will tend to distort
or derange the framework f; and
when this framework is deranged
the colt is damaged to a great ex-
tent.

Will Wheat Turn to Cheat

This is a question that has been
discussed for a thousand years, but
it is a we'll known fact among bot
anists that Cheat is an entirely diff
ferent species of grass from wheat,
and yet many farmers believe that
wheat will turn to or produce
''cheat." Scientists inform us
that the seed of ''chess or cheat is
a mere point of albumen, and those
seed are sheathed in such a mating
Of hulls as to be almost %impervious
to moisture. A head of cheat bur-
ried in the earth below the inHu-
ence of the heat of the sun and
air, will remain sound for years,
and afterwards turned up near the
surface of the earth vii sprout and
produce a full crop of cheat. The
grain Of wheat contains properties
hat are not to be found in cheat,
therefore wheat cannot turn to
cheat.
One Mr.. Willard, d number of
years since, sowed the seed of chess
and grew an immense crop Of grass
which he cut and cured into hay
for cattle, and the agricultural
paper Of that period pronounced
''Willard's Bronze" as the best grass
for hay ever discovered. He sold
the seed of the chess at enormous
prices, and thus this pest of farm
ers was introduced into Kentucky
and other States of the Union.
Cattle will eat the chess when it is
green and derive some nutriment
from it; but when cut and dried
and placed in the rack with timo-
thy hay will eat the hay and leave
the chess untouched. Where any
cheat has been discovered in the
wheat, we advise tho patrons Of the
Agricultulist to soak their seed
wheat, for five minutes, in a strong
salt brine, skimming and feeding to
stock all that floats.

CARROTS FOR HORsEs.-Experi-
ments have shown that the best
way to feed carrots to horses is in
conjunction oats. Alone carrots
are not good as cats alone, but in
conjunction they are better than
each food separately. Il you are
in the habit of feeding four quarts
of oats to a mess, give two oats and
two of sliced carrots, and the result
will be more satisfactory than if
each were fed separately.

Cows EATING WooD, Bones,
ETC.-When cattle eat bones, leath-
er wood, etc. it indicates a lack Of
phosphate of lime in their food,
which they require to supply bone
material and wastes Of the system,
and the 100 lbs.. or more which
every COW requires in a year for her
milk. Lack of this in the food,
creates Il morbid appetite, which is
only partially satisfied by gnawing
at such object. Bone flour may be

Cruelty to inns

No man deserves the title of
''horseman" who beat horses; it is
not the way to marriage them, and
it will always be found that those
who do SO are either ignorant,
stupid men, or possessed of a cruel
disposition. Such individuals
should have nothing to do with
horses. 1t is said, and indeed with
truth, that we are too apt to con-
slider animals under the dominion
Of man in no view but that of prop
city, whereas the dominion grrnted
to us over the animal world is not
conceded to us absolutely. 1t is a
dominion IN trust !: and we should
never forget that the animal over
which we exercise II power has
all the organs which render it us
ceptlble of pleasure or pain. 1t
sees, it hears, it smells, it tastes.
1t feels with acuteness. How mer-
c;fully then ought we to exercise
the dominion entrusted to II care
