The cheapest hog food we can pro-
duce is clover but tho best single food
Is corn. In the combination OF these
two foods lie the best results. Some
may say this necessitates exclusive
summer feeding. Not necessarily;

tages AT present prices pork cannot
be profitably produced on an all grain

But the person who has never tried

thrifty hogs on a good clover pasture

Irrigation for small and large fruits
generally more than pays for the cost
OF the work in two years. BY iyriga-
ton in this sense | mean wstering the
fruits according TO any device by tile,
bitches or an overhead leader There
Is scarcely fruit orchard that could
not be Supplied with all the water
needed in hot weather. In hilly coun-
tries the cheapest way probably is to
turn the course OF a small brook or
stream toward the orchard. or run a
tile drain from it TO the plants. Sub.
irrigation is always better than sur
face, especially on clay lands which
viii be apt TO bake in hot weather.
by means OF tile drain the orchard
can be irrigated and drained at the
same time. BY leaving them open in
wet weather the water will run out
and by closing the outlets in dry sea-
sons the water win be retained. Tests
made with this system show that the
yield OF small fruits is increased thir-
ty per cent, and corresponding in
crease is made with the larger ones.
Home grounds aud gardens are not
as q rule sufficiently irrigated and
drained and it is a pity when it can
be done so easily. If nothing else the
water can be drawn from the pump in
the barnyard, and conducted to the
garden by tile drain 1t always pays
to dig a small pond near the orchard
for drainage purposes This can be
used then as fish pond and a place
for gathering ice in the winter Such
pond is OF great value in many ways
and it well repays the outlay for con-
struction. j. d. Morrow, in American

Success with Heds -.


Noticing discussion in your paper
as to Usage orange hedges between
Messrs. Brown and Chamberlain,
writes a correspondent of the Country
Gentleman, allow me to suggest-not
because have any positive knowledge
OF the O,age orange but having had
an extensive experience with ever
greens, particularly the Norway
spruce can but think the treatment
has close points OF resemblance.
Most Usage orange hedge-growors
as ! noticed in their writings, lay stress
on the necessity for "splashing'-that
is, of cutting the plants about half off
when they reach a height OF seven feet
or more, bending them over until
nearly horizontal and leaving them In
that mangled condition 20 grow and
make the hedge impervious to live
stock. They seem 20 think there is
no other effective way; aud perhaps
there isn't II one neglects the hedge
until it attains the height mentioned.
But, unle the Usage plant differs
radically from CHER trees, II it should
be cut low when planted, and then
cut back severely each fall or winter.
leaving only few inches Of the last
seasons growth, it will become so
stocky and branched that no FLASHING
will be needed-at least ] shall think
30 until some reliable man who has
fairly tried 1t states TO the contrary.
Apples. pears and thorns generally be-
come very stiff and stocky under this
treatment sending out branches in all
directions. and ] can imagine no rea-
son why the Usage orange, when
planted only few inches apart should
not aided by its fearful thorEs, be-
come absolutely impervicds to the pas
sage OF men or animals.
The cutting back when young is a
necessity in the care Of evergreens for
hedges, and under that treatment from
the first they become solid masses OF
green, and so closely interviewer that
neither animals fowls nor birds can
pass unless they force their way. In
general this is not true OF evergreen
hedges as one sees them, but the fault
is due entirely to neglect or to the use
OF poor plants. AT two feet apart in
the hedge row, there is no trouble
what yer-not the least-e except the
trouble OF attending to it when planted
and annually thereafter for FIVE or six
years or until the hedge has the de-
sired height usually four feet But
II the grower neglects it on the plea Of
mo time. or too much else to do"
he will have scarecrow OF a hedge,
resembling most OF the Usage orange
hedges | have seen scraggy, full OF
gaps irregular in height and good
for nothing but to illustrate the grow
ers ineficiency in hedge management

there is a white-haired old Friend
living in Chester county, whose face
