Pork and Poultry.

A correspondent of The American
Poultry Yard says: In my conversa-
tion with farmers and others. I find
that some persons question the asser-
tions that have been made in regard
to the relative cost and value of pork
and poultry. OF course there is
great difference in the price Of grain
in different sections of the country,
AZ there is also in the market price Of
pork and poultry after it is fitted for
market. l will first speak Of the rel
ative value as it has been here in
Connecticut for the last six months.
Poultry has brought 16 cents per
pound, varying little at times and
according to quality. The price Of
pork has been FIVE cents a pound.
The price of meal has been 81 per
cwt. Now, if it takes twenty cwt.
cf meal or its equivalent to make a
porker weighing 300 pounds. there
would be an income of $l5. The
twenty cwt. of meal would be suf-
6cient to rear and keep thirty-three
chickens to one year of age. They
would weigh when dressed, four
pounds each, making l52 pounds,
bringing $2l.l2; fifteen of the chicks,
being pullets, would lay forty eggs
each, at twenty cents per dozen; we
have $40, plus $2l. .l2-s3l.l2. Poul-
try is much ahead of pork in this
part of the country.

TO OUR PATRONS.

In taking full charge and RESPONSE
bility of the management Of the
FARMER, it is proper that we should
indicate the principle on which we
shall conduct tie same. We shall
do what we can to advance the moral
and material interests Of the people
Of Wadena, Wadena county and vi
cinity, "with malice toward none and
charity to all,' devotins our time,
talent, and money to the making of
it paper worthy in every way Of
the support and patronage Of the pub
lie. in dissolving the business con-
nection heretofore existing between
ourselves and Mr.. Whipple, we have
none but the kindest feelings toward
him, and we trust wherever he may
go. he will be successful in whatever
business he may undertake, and that
he may have that confidence of the
people with which he may be asso'
ciated. which he deserves.

What the Farmer Should Study.

What the Farmer Should Study.
The farmer should study the laws
of concentration. He should learn
how to concentrate his crops into the
best paying articles. Does he con-
slider that butter, cheese, beef. pork
and mutton represent only a certain
amount of grass, hay and grain that
his farm produces1 That instead Of
selling the raw commodities. lie can,
by putting them into these articles,
get much better returns for his pro-
ducts? His study should be how to
transform the raw products of his
farm into something that is concen-
trated, and that will bring him
the most money. What he raises has
to go to some market. BY condens<
ing it, little freight will have to be
paid, and thus much will he saved.
A farm is not Only farm; it is, or
should be, 4 factory for changing the
raw products into articles Of general
consumption that have a commercial
value the world over-that are of the
best quality, that keep well and sell
we'll, and bring prices that will pay
we'll for the skill, labor and capital
EN- mplOved in producing them.

What splendid weather! but it is

on builders when they have to pay

Tho health of our village has been
restored to its former perfection.
Whether the presence of Dr. Smith
has anything to do with it or not,
may be a pertinent question. But he
did help John Barwise's pigs. 70"
see, said pigs were taken SICK
and every time they were fed would
take a mouthful or two, then com.
mence treading with their fore feet
and fall over backwards in fit As If
dead. The matter was brought be.
fore your correspondent and by him
referred to the doctor, whe prescribed
arsenic. An ounce of arsenice was
procured, and Mr.. b. took it home
and mixed it all in a quart of milk.
and poured it into the trough. The
two pigs went for it, but one OF them
took three or fonr laps and went off
into fit, and in his tearing and
frothing, Mr.. BIS attentions was d.
rected to him, and he did not notice
that the other pig was eating all the
milk and arsenlce, but sush was
the fact. About that time Mr.. 3.
came to the conclusion it was good
by pigs; one was dying in fit, and
the other had All ounce of arsenice,
but the pig with the fit came out, and
the one with the arsenice rejected &
portion and the result is permanent
cure. The doctor is a sure cure or
pigs, and as DR.. J. G. Holland says
''There is either good deal of pig ir
human nature, Or good deal of hu
man nature in pig We may con
clude he knows what human nature
wants. ZEPHYR.

VALIDICTORY.

With this issue of the NORTHERN
Pacific FARMER, I withdraw from
it as one Of it's editors and proprietors.
In making this change / have little
to say in regard to ny past work,
aside from the fact that 1 have al
ways strived to he upright and
prompt, and to give our patrons q;
paper of which they might have no
little pride and interest. How we'll
we have succeeded. we will leave to
our readers to decide. Most of them
are aware that during the past year a
large share Of the burden of running
this paper has rested on my shoulders,
and that We have had many 4 side
hill to contend with. Mr.. Whitney
has had much Of his time taken up
with public matters, (of which he
should receive due merit) and could
devote but little Of his attention to
our interest. This fault, l am happy
to say, under the new regime, is. to
4 great extent, remedied. Mr.. Whit
ney has secured the services Of COM
petent men, who will, without 4
doubt, make the FARMER paper Of
which none of it's readers need feel
ashamed. Personally, shall cherish
none but kindly feelings toward the
FARMER, and shall always be happy
to hear of its prosperity. l have ex~
perienced many pleasant incidents
during my stay here, and it is with a
feeling of deep regret that I am CON-
PEELED to leave. My future home will
probably be in Superior, Wisconsin,
but what course / shall take is at
present unsettled. With kindly re-
CARDS for all my friends, and wishing
my successor happy and prosperous
New Year, remain
Very truly yours,

It has been very damp. and very
unhealthy weather for the past few
days. A damp raw wind has been
blowing, and those who have been
troubled with coughs and colds, have
not been made any better by it.
1t will be seen that the little boy
of Mrs. Inman, who I wrote WAS so
sick, died. 1t was buried in the Wa
dena cemetery, on Friday. the 9th

and good dispositionsd little boy, and
bore his suffering very patiently.
This is the third time in less than
two years, that this bereaved family
have been called upon to follow their
loved ones to the grave. Truly their
Affections are very great. May the
good lord give them strength to bear
up under their severe trials, and at
last bring them all to a happy meet

Watering Cows in Winter: =:

How often should COWS have water
in winter, and when should they have
it! Is once day enough! are ques-
tions which are often asked. Cows,
as we'll as other stock, should have
water whenever they desire it, no
matter how often. They need it es-
pecially after every meal of dry fods
der, particularly after filling up with
dry hay. Cows which live exclusive
ly on dry hay should, of course, have
drink more than once day. The
character of the food determines the
amount and frequency Of the supply
required. Cows living largely upon
pumpkins, which are 81 per cent. wa
ter, get enough of it in their food,
and do not need to drink at all.
When they live upon fodder corn
which contains SO to 30 per cent. wa.
ter, they drink but seldom, but when
living upon grass which contains IS
per cent. water they drink often, and
suffer if they do not set water fre.
quently. In the flush of feed in June,
when grass is the most succulent and
juicy, COWS require drink several
times day, and fall of in their milk
if they do not get it; and their milk
will shrink more from being pinched,
for water than if pinched in their
food supply. If cows need water
several times day when using such
watery food as green grass, how much
more Frequently must they need it
when living upon dry h;y, whieh
contains 80 per cent. less wster than
grass. The fact is, water, whenever
desired, is more important than food.
Our domestic animals suffer and de-
preciate less from a lack Of food than
from lack of water. Such result
might easily be inferred from the
discomfort and suffering people nn'
dergo when deprived of water too
long. .s
