Pigs That Paw.

Mr.. Connor, Of Hoplinton, N. H.,
speaks as follows about his practice:

For the first two weeks use whole
grain, sweet or western corn, then com
mence the addition of niddlings in slight
quantities. When the pig is three or
four months old add a little Indian meal
and shorts, but not to any great extent
until about six months of age. A pig thus
fed up to this time on feed containing
largely the bono and muscle elements
will have frame that will stand the
strain of heavy feeding during the sue
ceeding three or four months. About
700 pounds of meal per pig, with the ad-
dition of dollar or two's worth of mid
dlings and shorts during the growing
period, will make a pig weigh from 300
to $50 pounds. The hams and sides, the
lard and pork from such pig find q

culture

Points of Interest.

The change from old to new corn in
feeding, especially with hogs, should be
made gradually, mixing old and new to-
gether at first.
One of the best places for garden iG
the site of an old poultry yard. Good
farmers sometimes build temporary In
closures for fattenins hogs upon bare
spots in their fields. BY the time the
hogs are ready to slaughter the bare
spot will have been transformed into an
oasis of fertility.
Bran mashes at night, with green food
during the day, are good for constipa-
ton in horses.
The census returns show that the cat
tie ranches are becoming smaller in size;
so are the herds that range over them.
There are as many cattle as ever, but
they are in smaller punches and the
number of different owners is greater.
The tendency of the time is for the small
ranch or farm to encroach on the cattle
range and absorb it
Potatoes, when crushed and mixed
with meal, have valuable fattening prop
srties for both cattle and hogs
Cook potatoes for the pigs, but crush
them and give them raw to tho cattle

A ouesrson Of nu,la.n~.

4 comparison Of the building opera
hons of the larger cities of the Union In
the past year opens up an interesting
question. It seems that Philadelphia
was the city that built the most houses
in 1889, the number being 1866, while
New York constructed only 6,722. But
The cost of the New York houses WAS
s75, ,912, ,81s, while the zors than Il, ,0oe
IN Philadelphia coet only $2s, 900. 600.
The question that has arisen is, Which
built better, New York or Philadelphia;
The structures in the Quaker City were
mostly unpretsntious dwelling houses.
homes of working people, while those Of
New York included splendid business
edifces and magnificent palacss for ths
residences of the rich.
Philadelphia is nosrd rs being yhs city
Of homes. It has not 50 many tsneRent

With cottages, not pretty architectural
ly, but much moro comfortable and
pleasant than the ordinary tenement
house. Phi1adelphia's working people
are happier and moro independent than
those of most other cities, no doubt, but
rival places claim that thess focks Of
little houses hurt the appearance Of the
city enthusiastically.
1t Is an interesting topic. Certainl)

DucKs AND OTHER 1--WE STOCK.

Few an 1ngszteus Farmer Gets P7enty %
Water, Ducks ard TisA.
fwfl enaeaver to tell my readers 40
briefly ss Pessibls hew have plenty os
atosk water eeHvcEisnt te Hay lots, plenty
ef fish fer nay table and plenty Of hne
Pekin ducks for the table, and also for
their fine feathers. Some Ave or siR
years ago, not having water convenient,
built tank, say thirty steps from my
lots and little above them, by building
large dam across a ravine, and Just
here will say to prevent leaking plow
land the width of the base of the dam
across the ravine or wherever the dam
is to be made, then build on top Of
plowed land.
My tank is in black land with yellow
clay subsoil and will hold water from
January till the late fall rains In it we
put few small perch and yellow and
speckled or blue catfish; they multiplied
very rapidly and we now have all the
fish we want for table use both of perch
and catfish, the former think the finest
ever saw. For while after the tank
was built was fearful of 1t being ruined
by crawfish, they being very numerous
in it. l noticed, however, that the ducks
feasted upon them. So went to work
to raise moro ducks; procured trio Of
Pekins, and at this time have forty-ons
of them and no crawfsh to be seen.
The ducks are very superior fowl, be-
ing entirely free from disease, and un-
surpassed for the table, besides nearly
equaling the goose for feathers, of very
fine quality. So you see l have plenty
of water for stock, fish for the table, and
the white beauties for the table and also
for their feathers, besides the pleasure
afforded my wife by showing them to
her friends. Now perhaps some one
will want to know how to raise them.
Our best success has been in the follow
ing way:
We hatch them under chicken hen.
Then put in pen made by placing three
or four planks foot wide edgewise on q
dry spot of ground, with cover at one
side to house them in bad weather
Keep them in pen until they are at least
month old, with all the feed they want,
and just enough water to drink, as they
are injured by having water to dabble
in when young. They will then do well
in the yard with just enough water to
drink, but much better if they have a
pond or plenty of water. Ours spend
nearly all their time on the water, COM
ing out to eat two OF three times day.
