The Hoe CHoLERA.-This disease
has abated in the West and premiums
are offered those who will find out a
specific for its cure. In our opinion
there will be none until change is
made in the mode of fattening them.
Prevention is better than cure,and as
long as hogs are brought up on farms
and taken to distilleries at Louisville
and Cincinnati, just so sure will chol-
era continue to spring up annually
and ravish whole herds as it now
does. The hog is naturally clean
animal, and does not prefer filth, but
when they are confined in pens with
nothing to eat but the foul overflow
ing slop of the distillery before them,
with no change, no exercise, and nc
comfort, it is not surprising that they
become sick and unhealthy. The
hogs are crowded in these Enclosures
with no bedding but the slop on
which the feed, exposed as is the feed
to the hot boiling rays of the summer
sun, and in constant contact and
strife with each other Crowded full
of vermin, and compelled to be at al
times struggling for an existence
When disease puts in an appearance
it is generally of a contagious char
acter, and is not confined to any 10
cality but spreads in every direction
AS soon as signs of disease appeal
the cry for remedies begins, and in
stead of roofing out the cause of thes'
destructive promoters OF dlseas'
among hogs, the nuisance is allowed
to continue undated. AS they SOY
they reap likewise.

BRING HOME SoMETHING.-Nearly
every farmer goes to the nearest VII
lage to trade, visit a mechanic, or
obtain his letters and papers at least
once a week. He often takes q load
to market but he rarely brings one
home. He can with very little trou-
ble haul load of material that may
be obtained for nothing, and which
will be of great benefit to his laud.
Most village people make no use of
the ashes produced in their stoves or
of the bones taken from the meat they
consume. Scarcely any brewer has
any use for the hops that have been
boiled in his watts, and the blacksmith
hardly ever saves the clippings he
takes from the feet of horses. All
these materials make excellent ma
nure. A barrel of shavings cut from
the hoofs of horses contains more
ammonia than is contained in load
of stable manure. Applied to land
without preparation they might give
no immediate results, but they would
become decomposed in time,and crops
Of all kinds would be benefited by
them. They may be so treated that
they would produce immediate results
BY covering them with fresh horse
manure they decompose very rapidly
They may also be leached in barrel
and the water that covered them
drawn off and applied to plants. Wa
ter in which pieces of horn and hoo
have been soaked is an excellent ma
nure for plants that require forcing
1t stimulates the growth of tomatoes
rose bushes and house plants very
rapidly and emits no offensive odors
A vast amount of fertilizing materia
is wasted in towns that farmers could
obtain the benefit of with very little
trouble.

WHEN TO Cur HAY.-It will soon
be time to cut the early crop of hay.
There are a number of things to de-
termine the proper time to do this
work: first as to the feeding value of
the hay. For this as far as quality
is concerned there is no doubt that
the grass and clover should be cut a
trifie before the period of the the
full blosso From this time on to
near the end Of poisoning though
there may be an increase in the
weight of the hay gathered, it is of
much poorer quality; the nutritive
elements have been increased mater
tally but there is larger percent of
indigestible woody fibre. Secondly,
the value of underneath is increased
by early cutting, as it has ten or
twenty days to grow. Thirdly, there
is a practical advantage in cutting
the hay early as it prolongs the hay
ing season and permits of less hurry
and therefore more care in gathering
the crop. These points apply equally
we'll to the grain crops, they being
too frequently harvested later than is
best for the richest fodder and the
finest quality of grain.

LINE IN AGRICULTURE.-Allw writer's
on agricultural subjects seem to agree
that the use of lime is of great benefit
to crops thus treated showing the ad-
vantage of its mixture with the soil.
A correspondent writes from France
that the European farmers coincide
with our agriculturists in this respect
and concludes as follows:
The extended use of lime is good
for clay soils. Argyll angments in
volume when moist-diminishes when
dry. Carbonate of lime possesses
neither Of these qualities; applied
then to cold clay soils it enables the
air and heat to penetrate more readi-
ly thus making the land friable. On
light soil the action of lime is weak,
and on those very light the use OF
lime is misplaced. But as the action
of lime rapidly transforms the nutri-
tive capital of the land, its success
cannot be permanent unless ration
ally supplemented by direct fertili-
zers, as farmyard manure, etc. Hence
the adage, lime enriches the father
but ruins the children. If the soil
have an excess of acids, lime "sweet-
ems" by neutralizing them; all cult
waited soils are slightly acid, such
being necessary for vegetation. Too
much however acts directly on plants
and indirectly by the formation o
soluble and noxious salts OF iron.
HOUSE LINEN.-Once year tn
house linen should be carefully LOOKED
over and arranged. Such sheets an'
pillow cases as have seen their day
Of usefulness and yet are still unbro
ken, should be laid carefully aside
that they may come into service whel
an unusual number of bed change
are required. Supply their place
with new ones, and thus keep al
abundance of fresh bedding for emer

HOUSE, FARM AND FIRESIDE.

SHEEP HUsBANDRY.-Sheep hus-
bandry is one of the most remunera-
tive branches of farming there is, for
as a rule, there is but little expense
attached, and besides the profit which
they bring in their increase, the land
upon which they have been running
has been very much enriched thereby.
Many of our run down pastures could
in few years be brought up to their
original fertility by turning upon
them focks of sheep. As the drop
pings are distributed more evenly
by sheep than by any other animal,
increased fertilization would be more
general. Mich COWS remove con-
siderable amount of phosphoric acid
from the soil in their milk, while
sheep would return a large per cent
of this valuable material in the drop
pings, even should they have no other
food than that obtained from the
pasture alone. Large areas of light
sandy soil could be made quite fer
tile by first sowing q crop of winter
red wheat, as early as September,
and turning sheep on it, say in No
vember. You are thus saving land,
of which no use could otherwise be
made, and at the same time raising
flocks of sheep for market at little or
no expense. Some varieties of sheep
require heavier and richer soil than
others, for instance, the Cotswold,
Leicester or Lincoln, their carcasses
being larger than any of the Down
breeds. The Merino require little
care in the pasture, and yet it pays
well to take good care of them, as it
increases the lenght of the staple and
weight of the fleece; they form the
best stock for crossing upon coarse
breeds. There is in fact no species OF
livestock that will not do better from
being we'll cared for than if allowed
to look out for themselves, and a
sheep is an animal that will return a
larger percentage of reward than
most any other for receiving attention
at the hands of its owner.

great merit of orange wine, and to
the high price which it commands
10 the market, we have conversed
with quite number of gentlemen
who have given the matter some
attention. In Louisiana it was al
ways admitted that oranges, made
into wine, were twice as PORTABLE
% the fruit sold from the trees
would have been. OF course, as this

We write under the enthusiasm In.
spired by q successful fishing ex-
petition.

WHILE Psrson Kalloch is East,
enjoying the delights OF a visit to
the scenes Of his childhood, youth
and early manhood, there are
grave movements under way in
San Francisco which threaten his
re. denomination, at least by the
Democracy. Had Capt. Fritz lived
there is very little doubt but Kal.
Loeb would have received the Dem.
ocratic nomination. Fritz had ac-
quired wonderful hold on the
rank and file OF the Democracy,
and he was a man of eminently
practical tendencies. He looked
upon 1t rs matter of prime i'm.
portance that his party should get
hold of the municipal offices and
he would have sacrificed all minor
scruples to success. His death has
weakened the chances of the Rev.
erend Mayor. However, in his
speeches in the East, KallOch dis.
claims being a candidate for re-
election, and il he is telling the
truth he Is independent of rapid
ly crystalizing sentiment which is
growing up against him in certain
Democratic circles of San Francis
CO. The public, with a lack of faith
which shows that they are fit to
belong to Bob Ingersoll's scheme of
religion, believe that Kalloch
wants the Office aud that he has
compromised his chances of getting
it by his long sojourn in the East.
