Spreading salt on the ground under
plum trees as far out as the branches
extend will, it is stated, aid in securing
q good crop, as It interferes with the OPP
erations of curculio.
"A careful farmer says that his best
wheat Is that on which his sheep were
pastured last winter. He permitted the

following Chicago Tribune.
There are two garden vegetables
which, of all others, are hardest to pro-
cure in prime condition from the mar
ket-green peas and sweet-corn. Both
begin to lose their peculiarly delicious
flavor soon after picking. The peas are
insipid after few hours exposure, and
the sweet-corn is sweet no longer. Those
who want them in preference must grow
thcm.-M y. Examiner.
There is no plant more pleasing to
the eye in the garden than n bell pep
per-plant, and two or three of these will
yield enough of the green peppers to
make nice little jar of pickles. The
filling, if made exactly as you make
chopped pickles, is excellent. A few
seeds dropped in the hot-bed, or few
plants purchased, will well repay for
the trouble.-M Y. Post.

When baking a fish that is not oily
it is an addition to the goodness of the
dinner to bake potatoes in the pan with
it. Peel the potatoes and cut them in
thick slices, and serve them on the
platter with the fish. The gravy that
accompanies the fish should in this ease
be sent to the table in the gravy-boat,
and not be poured over the fish. The
potatoes, if perfectly cooked, will be
brown and crisp and excellent. The

MAKING LEAN IN PORK.

We may well suppose that the h,,bit of
he pig in laying on an excessive quantity
Of fat has been caused by long and excessive
feeding of fat-producing food, and it is not
likely that any sudden transformation could
be brought about but it is we'll known that
the pigs of different countries differ in re-
spect to fat. We have only to contrast fat
tened pigs o; this country with those in
Canada. There pork is fattened partly upon
barley, but largely upon peas, highly nitro
genous food, yielding large proportion of
muscle, and our pigs are fattened almost
wholly upon corn, an excessively starchy
and fattening food. The Canadian pork has
much larger proportion of lean meat and
less lard. The difference is very marked,
so much so that in a market supplied with
both kinds, purchasers easily select the one
or the other as desired Wild hogs do not
have such excess of fat, and the Southern
hog, which is grown much slower than those
in the Northern and Western States, aud
fed much less corn, is comparatively lean.
There can, therefore, be little doubt that
the habit of depositing this excess Of fat is
caused by long-continued feeding adapted
to that end. The hog is naturally a grass
and root-eating animal, and in its domesri-
cation is fed almost wholly upon concen-
tiated food. Hogs fed upon skinned mink
have q less proportion Of fat than those fed
upon corn. Il young pigs are kept upon
food that will grow the muscles and bones
and develop rangy frame, they viii pos
sess sc much muscle when half grown, that
moderate length of time in fattening, even
ON corn, will not pile on gu excessive
amount Of fnt.
