Raising Hogs.

Nothing pay s better than hogs
that is, if they are properly raised.
My ten years experience has taught
mc good many valuable lessons.
l aim to let my sows come in with
pigs about the Goth of January. l
put the sows in three or four cor
nered pens around the straw stack,
where the cattle with their horns
have made holes in the stack. BY
so doing each sow will raise every
pig, and every pig is worth $40, at
least, when the time comes for put
ting up our hogs for market. The
sow and little pigs should be well
fed till spring. Then turn them on
clover and they viii get along well
enough until fattening time. In
the spring breed the sows again,
when the pigs are two and half or
three months old, so as to have a
nice lot of pigs for the next spring
market. These fall pigs should be
stabbed every night during The win
ter, but not more than twenty five
should b. in one pen, or they will
lay on each other and some will be
smothtred. When feeding in sum
mer on clover l never feed more
than half of what they can eat; and
they will faJten just as well as to
stuff them, at half the cost, too.
In feeding, give them plenty OF
salt and ashes mixed together.
Plenty Of charcoal is also good.
Half Of the so-called cholera cures
are composed almost entirely of
charcoal. In picking out brood

Eoonomv On the Farm.

Southern Cultivalor: 1t has been
truly said that the profits of future
farming in this country depend more
than ever upon the economy of the
farm. As the country grows older
population increases, the price of
land advances and competition
wakes fereer in all agricultural pro
duction. The aggregate OF losses
on the average farm resulting from
inefficient labor, want or fore
thought, careless management, tardi-
ness in various operations, inper
feet implements, improper feeding,
Improbable stock of sll kinds, ETC..
would alone amount to very hand
some profit in the years operations
If it could all be prevented. There
is great loss in keeping COW that
yields 300 gallons Of milk per annnm
instead OF one that would produce
600 gallons st the same or slightly
greater cost.
The losses from negligence in the
preparation of the products of the
farm for market is enormous. In
the cotton crop of Georgia a differ
ence of ] cent per pound in the mar
ket quality of the product would

Old Meadows.

A correspondent has q meadow
which produces about a ton of hay
per acre. 1t has been down eight
years, and the clover and timothy
have died out, and their place is
occupied with June grass. He asks
whether top-dressing with barn
yard manure, and re-seedIng will
bring it to bear good crops.
Top-dressing would improve it
very much, but it would, doubtless,
pay better to break it up and reseed
fully. 1t would not be advisable to
break it up this spring, as the tena-
cious roots of the June grass would
not be likely to get thoroughly rot
ted during one summer, if, indeed,
they were all killed. 1t would be
better to NOW it this year and
break it up in the fall, and next
year fallow it, blowing and cultiva-
ting it often, selecting the driest
weather to do the work. This will
kill and rot the June grass roots,
and enrich the ground for new ser
vice. The seeding will best be done
about the middle of August, or as
soon as the summer drouth is about
over. The loss of a grain crop,
while preparing to reseed, will be
more than paid for in the improved
condition Of the soil, Ground
which has laid long to grass be
comes exhausted of available fertil
ity and needs thoroughly stirring
and aerating to facilitate the solu-
ton of the undissolved plant food,
which lies dormant in the soil, una
valuable and useless, till made solu-
BILE by exposure to the air. 1t is
not good policy to let either pas
ture or meadow lie too long without
breaking up and pulverizing the
earth anew. Modern science, and
the best practice agree IN maintain
ing that the quickest and cheapest
way to enrich most soils is to thor
oughly cultivate and stir them, to
hasten the decomposition of mineral
matters, which serve as plant
food. What may thus be gained by
following and the rotting of the
grass roQts, will put the meadow in
splendid condition for crops for q
series of years. We would advise
keeping this fact in mind while
working the soil,

Growing sorehum for Feed.

The following statement is from
the first quarterly report OF the Kan
sas State Board of Agriculture. The
writer, Mr., G. f. Hubbard, of Paw
nee county, has been growing sor-
ehum for feed annually, during the
past six years, and has not met
with a single failure. He says;
Il plant any time between May
Goth to June Goth, using corn
planter. Cultivate exactly as you
would corn, and make thorough
work. The plant will be ready to
cut and put in shock by September
1st, at which time cut and shock
the same as corn, letting it remain
in the field until it is wanted for
feed in the winter. 1t makes excel
lent feed at any time, and especially
when the ground is covered with
snow. only feed sorghum during
bad weather, unless I have an un-
usual supply, when l feed it at all
times. 1t makes very rich food,
and all kinds of stock will eat it
with a relish, eating it clean, stalks
and leaves.
"Another method of growing sor
ghum for feed is to prepare your
ground by blowing fino and deep,
Immediately after harvest. Plant
with a corn-planter as fast as you
pillow, until you have the number of
acres you intend to put to this use.
About the LIST of August the sor-
ghum is nicely up; then harrow it
thoroughly lengthwise of rows. By
the 18th of August the sorghum
will probably be from six to eight
inches high, at which time proceed
to seed the field with rye. Drill one
and one-half bushels per acre; then
when the cold weather comes, turn
your stock in upon it, and you have
an excellent pasture,
II consider this latter mode one
of the best and most profitable ways
of cultivating sorghum winter feed.
1t does away with the expensive
item of harvesting. When planted
on or before July Goth, the sorghum
will mature before frost sets in; and
a field thus planted will secure you
a great amount of valuable fodder
for all kinds Of stock in winter.

sows, be careful to pick out nice,
smooth ones. Don't select those
that are too big, or too fat. or too
little; and don't choose any sway
backs. Nice, smooth sows q year
old or over raise much better pigs
than young sows; the pigs they have
are 50 much larger and easier to
fatten. A nice drove of fat hogs to
Jake to market will lift a mortgage
off farm quicker than anything
else that know of; or they will en-
able one to buy farm in less time
than it takes lazy man to think it.
My choice of hogs is the Poland
China above all others. They are
larger and easier to fatten than any
hogs that ever went to market
They are the kind of hogs for every
body. G. c. CARRoLLToN.
Remarks.-The Poland Chinas
and Berkshires and Jeasey Reds
may be the best to raise In a large
way for market; but those who raise
a few hogs to supply choice meat
for their own family, had better get
the Little Essex.

Two Essentials pfsuccess.

How to make farm pay, is a
question often asked, and a prob
lem with many sides, there are such
multitude of small things to be at
tended to, and just here is where so
many fail. But the ants which car
ried away the grain, one kernel at a
time, at last left the granary empty.
So the innumerable' small, disre-
garded saQrcea Of saving profit on
the farm, leave narrow margins and
little gains at the years end.
Most of the farmers forget Napo-
Icons banker, and waste the half
sheet of paper without thought.
OF cou Sc, as in ali occupations the
first requisite to success is q good
wife. Not so much saving, eco
nomical, hard working woman, as
one with a clear head--a competent
and oft consulted aaViset, \ seOd
business woman, like a good bust
ness man, will always be properly
economical. Too often the farmer
and his family go on the ''come
penny go pound" principle, which is
an exceedingly bad one. The wife
should not only be a thorough mis-
tress of domestic economy and cor
rect house hold management, but,
like the man, lover of the farm
and farm life, and competent in |
case of absence or illness on the
part OF the husband to see and |
know that the farm is kept properly
It has been said that if
the woman is at the head Of the
house the woman is the heart, but
in the ideal holding, both must be
at once both head and heart, for
the least defect in the action of
either may be the cause of great
loss. A sage has written that no
man ever succeeded Thoroughly
feminine traits, and no VIC
man without masculine. This
s more particularly true on the
arm than in any other business.
For the animals to be really well
require feminine gentle
ness together with masculine
strength and :horoughness. Often,
indeed, in case of any illaess among
he stock, woman's hand and care
s requisite. The mans strength
s often also as requisite for the
'uc, essful performance of many
asks peculiar to the farm house
lold. In short, on the farm, it is
essential to success that
lie husband and wife should in the
argest sense be true co-workers =

Care Of Pastures.

J.
en- take care of themselves, and
no matter how greatly they are
robbed and denuded, the cattle
feeding on the pastures Gan take
care of themselves also. We have
heretofore urged the Importance of
allowing blue grass to grow several
inches high before stock is turned
on it, and to have no more stock
than will allow the grass to contin-
ue that high, With q thick coating
for the ground, keeping it moist
and the grass green. But all kinds
of pasture need care and feeding.
The grass crop on well regulated
and properly ordered farm is
worth more than the corn and
wheat crop. And yet all the care
and expense afe devoted to the ce
reals, leaving the grass to take care
of itself. This is unwise husband
~ and poor economy. There is no
crop which responds more cordially
and pays more literally for good
treatment by the farmer than his
pasture and meadow lands.
If man keeps his moving land
in good condition, he will have an
abundance of hay in winter and
spring, so that he will not be com
PEELED to turn his poor cattle on
his pastures before there is a bite
for them. They tramp the soil into
morton and gnaw the very roots of
the the grass from the soil
In this condition the ground
is bare, soon bakes in the
sun, and there is a scanty crop of
grass the entire year. If hay is
plenty in the spring it is better for
stock than half a feed on grass,
and ten times better for the pasture.
The thoughtless farmer scarcely
lets spear Of grass stick its head
above the snow bank before lle will
turn his stock in to eat it, and poach
up the soil. And too often both
pasture and meadow get this annual
treatment. The right way is TO
keep both in e good. rich and pro
ductive condition, and then keep no
more stock than will eat in a suit
able time and way the products of
both. If there be too little hay and |
too much stock the grass is sure to
suffer the next spring. 1t is almost |
to avoid it. There must |
be judgment and wise management |
to make q fern profitable. There
is nothing to be let aione-n nothing
to take care Of itself All of the
time and expense must not be de
voted to the grain crop. What is
planted should be done well and on |
soil well prepared Tor it. But in
order to have a plenty of meadow
and pasture, raise eighty bushels of
,orn to the acre instead of forty.
Dr. raise as much on twenty acres
Is you do now on forty. 1t can be
lone, and should be. The acreage
If all the cultivated crops can be
greatly decreased without lessening
he product. In this way the grass
ands can be greatly increased in
and much more time al
owed to enrich it various ways to
louble its capacity. These are not
die words. This system ofmanage-
nent is what this country must
ome to. More corn, more wheat
md more grass on less acres. But
grass being worth as much per acre
