Green Corn for Pigs.


Amera.sH Arr.a'arpt
In the summer and early fall feed.
ing Of pigs, we have found sweet
corn one of the best and most con.
Ecnicnt kinds Of fodder. Pork is
made TO the best advantage by put.
ting the pigs, as soon as they are
Wcancd from the SOW and have learn.
cd to cat milk and meal, into the pen.
and keeping them there under full
feed until they are ready for slaugh.
ter in November or December. With
n good breed of swine there is no
difficulty in making March PIGS
weigh from two hundred and iifly to
three hundred lbs, at eight or nine
months old. With plenty of Indian
meal and skinned milk they will
grow rapidly until the corn is large
enough for cutting. About the first
of August, this should be given as an
additional ration. The pigs will eat
the green stalks and leaves with the
greatest relish after the ears have
been plucked. 1t is an excellent sp.
petizer, helps the digestion Of more
solid food, and prompts the thrin of
she animals. Field corn may not be
quite so nutritious, but no better use
can be made Of that, after the cars
are in milk, than TO cut and feed Il to
Iattening swine. II costs much less
10 make pork in summer than in cold
winter weather.

IT is very important that stubMc
land intended for seeding with wheat
should be plowed as early as possible.
Only thus can the soil be made com.
pact enough to insure a good seed
bed. Besides, on the newly plowcd
land the rains that come soak into
tue soil, while on stubble they run
OIL and leave the seed bed dry and
hard when the time for seeding ar
riyes. An carly plowcd siubble has
nearly as many advantages for kill
ing weeds as most Summer fallows.

Is August, hogs suffer the most
IRON unwholesome water. During
this month they require much water,
and it is more essential that Il be
pure than during any other time OF
the year. The sun is hot. the air
dry, the earth parched the hog has
a compact body, formed largely oC
fat, small lungs imbedded in masses
Of flesh and FAT, and with its nostrils
near the ground. II inhalcs dust.
which in part consists OF dccayinp
vegetables. Everything conspircs to
produce a feverish state Of the body
and great thirst, to be allayed only
by large quantities Of cold water.

were moved nearly forty rods to the

Mr.. Rediield understands his bust
ness to a letter, and it seems to US
as though he had tools enough to
move a quarter section of land if he
wanted to. Mr. II. never has to
wait for job. He claims that he
has not been caught .-tip with his
work for at least two years. Any
one wishing any of that kind of
work done, could do no better than
to call ON Mr.. r. Everything is
systematic and works like clock
with him.
;. X. Nields and son are building
a store just across the road ON their
own land, from where the old store
was. Mr.. N. will pay the highest
market price for butter and eggs and
will sell goods way down to keep
the trade at home. We will be glad
to patronize home trade if we can dc
as we'll as elsewhere.
Aaron Hayes is completing fine
new residence. We are glad to see
such men as Aaron prosper. Those
that stood the racket during the by
