The Place for a Breeding Sow.

Farmers as general rule do not nav
"s niuch attention to their hogs as they
ought to. Indeed they do not always
KNOW now to treat them to secure the best
results. For instance, they do not know
the best place for breeding sow. Those
"Eo have given the matter attention say
that there is no place on earth where
breeding SOW NAV do so well as on a bit
OF pasture with little shed for sleeping
place. There she will never have any
trouble and will always have strong and
active pigs. She may require little feed
ing II there is not sufficient grass, and it
Is always well to feed a little extra. as it
gives her greater strength; but she should
never be fed so much that she will become
lat. A fat sow is always a poor breeder
and makos poor mother. The instinct
to eat the placepta should not be inter-
tered with, ss it supplies just the kind of
1000 which nature requires to replenish
the system When this is eaten a sow
will remain atsiet and 10 more docile than
when she is deprived of it. We have
known sows to kill and eat a pig because
OF raVenous desire for animal food. and
when they have eaten the placenta they
would not touch a dead pig which they
have ACCIDENTALLY killed by lying upon it.
Alter sow has gratified her instincts by
this food she will remain In her nest for
hours, perhaps for whole day, and mean
while the udders are not inf1amed by an
excessive flow of milk caused by extra
food. A great many pigs are injured by
being compelled to take milk from fever
ish udders, the milk itself in turn inf1am-
ing their little stomachs and making them
sick, Such pigs show the bad effects of
their food by rough coats and general
delicate and sicKly appearance. Less care
and less food than are usually bestowed
on the breeding SOW will cause less abor-
ton and better success.

A new use for the tobacco plant is said
to have been discovered. Its stems and
waste, ii is claimed, are equal to linen
rags in the manufacture of paper. To-
bacco waste costs less than $l0a ton,
linen rags $40 to $50. There is no expense
IN asserting the former and very little
shrinkage, as against the loss OF one-third
OF rags. The yearly tobacco waste is es-
tlmated by the census reports at from
5000 900 to 100000 pounds.
A simple and effective method of bleach
ing bones, so as to give them the appear
ance OF ivory. has been introduced. After
dlgesting the bones with ether or benzine
to remove the fat, they are thoroughly
dried and immersed in a solution of phos-
phorlc acid in water containing one per
cent. OF phosphoric anhydride. In few
hours after these operations they are re-
| moved from the solution, then washed
and dried, with the result as stated.
The value OF pure milk as a food and

commonly made in drinking it. One is TO

ICED milk; the other to drink it too fast.

The waterproofing OF paper IS now most
etfectually accom- lished by mixture OF

Ingredients being thoroughly mingled by

| coming well saturated with it, and upon
| emerging from the tank the paper passes
between suitable rollers, which press any
surplus composition from 1t, leaving it

Homemade Manure.

Now that the years crops have been
gathered, 1t is important that farmers
should begin to make arrangements for
next years. operations and productions.
1t is important to decide both what crops
are TO be grown and what fertilizers
should be used. All the work of the year
having been finished, farmers feel as If
they were at liberty TO idle for awhile
before commencing active work for an
other year, when, in fact, this is the very
season of the year when all spare hands
and animals on the farm should be kept
busIly engaged in making manure. A
few weeks devoted TO this work will re.
suit in better crops next year.
A writer in the Home and Farm has the
following to say ON this subject:
There is so much uncertainty in many
Of the commercial fertilizers now in the
market, that much disappointment re-
suits often from their use. For this rea-
son IL is wise for farmers to make as much
or their own manure as possible, as they
VIII know what they have made them
selves can be depended upon; no disap-
pointmenL ever results from the use OF
well-compounded compost. We know OF
some farmers who have always placed
their main dependence upon their own
compost pile; and they have always been
the successful ones. During midwinter
they gather together forest leaves, corn
stalls, weeds, offal OF all kinds, muck from
bitches, leaf mold from fence corners,
Which they compost with the stable and
cow pen manure, aud cotton seed, sprlr-
King the pile occasionally with little
