and were all borrows and the longer I
feed them the greater the difference
seemed to be. / had two strains of
Poland Chinas-the smooth haired and
the curly haired. The curly, haired
fellows we're the best; they gained
more and were larger than hesmooth-
haired ones. I have had registered
Chester Whites that at the age of six
months weighed little over $50 lbs.
These were not stuffed or even fed all
they wanted. They had the run of the
clover pasture and in addition got a
little STOP and very little corn every
day. AS am not a breeder or a good
feeder but an ordinary farmer did
not put any extra time or care on the
pigs. Anybody could have made
greater gains by proper and better
feeding.
I have fed litter of nine pigs from
a Chester White SOW and Poland China
boar six months and few days that
averaged 223 lbs. with the same care
and those were the fiaest and best hogs
at that age l believe l ever raised. |
do not raise many any time I have
never raised over fifty in any one year,
generally from fifteen to Thirty per
year, and have done this for over ten
years. These gains are not what they
might have been, but only give fig
ures to show what the improved Ches-
ter White will do with common care.
l have seen breeders exhibit Poland
Chiuas at our county fairs that at six
months old would weigh 100 to 200 lbs.
AS to the porker: Chester Whites as
bred now mature much earlier than
they used to. Their have good hams
and can be fatted and sold at almost
any age. say the improved Chester
White or its cross is the breed GEO.

THE COMB AS AN INDICATOR.

By watching the appearance of the
comb the health OF the fowls may be
easily noted; when the comb looks
white, pale, or black, something is
wrong; great thirst is another sign, and
a nervous, restless disposition also gives
warning; sometimes a hen will go
moping about with dropping wings,
but with no other signs Of sickness ;
whenever the comb, however, does not
show a bright scarlet in color, and the
fowl is not lively, it should at once be
examined; there is no particular color
for any disease that is indicated by the
comb, as the pale or black depends
upon the stage of the disease, for very
often the comb will be pale and then
turn black, but the poultryman may
depend upon his fowls being in full
health when the combs are bright
scarlet, and especially during the lay
ing season, as the first sign the pullet
gives Of beginning to lay is the color Of
cOmb.-Southern Planter.

PEAS.

The great advantages of clover in
modern farming has been repeatedly
dwelt upon, and no doubt it is at the
basis of all good farming, unless some
equally good crop can be substituted
for it. The tendency to rob the soil,
and give nothing in return for the
crops, has been checked largely in re
cent years by the clover advocates, who
have insisted with justice that clover
must be part of every system of r0ta
tion Of crops B 1t the trouble with
clover is, and has been, that it is very
difficult to secure a good catch on many
soils. Soils that have produced clover
right along appear to be what is called
clover sick, and the plants do not thrive
as we'll on it as formerly. It is for this
reason that the COW peas may come
into great advantage in our northern
farming. If the COW peas can be given
a place in which clover is, and has
been, says the Farmers Magazine, that
it is little doubt but clover could be ex
cIuded without any Injurious results
O wing to the case with which they can
be raised, and the fertil.z1ng value Of
the clover roots, and the quick growth,
the COW pea may eventually prove a
popular northern green manure crop.
The full benefit Of the plants, and the
easiest way of raising them, will need
to be appreciated by the farmers more
generally than now, but with little
experiment each season on a small
patch of ground, everyone can see for
himself 1t is a email matter to do,
but it may prove of great value in the
future. Next season would be a good
time to begin with planting a plot of
land designed for clover with good
southern peas when the soil is warm
enough for a milIet crop.

FOOD FOR POULTRY.

A proper food for dairy COW, says
Mr.. DawIey, should have about the
same ratio between the albuminOids and
the carbohydra as is found in the
milk she is giving, which is about one
to four and one-half But now in an
egg, which the hen produces, the ratio
is about one to two, so the hen should
be fed accordingly, if we want her to
do her best laying eggs. A great many
people feed too much corn. This causes
the hens to Icy on fat. They can't make
many eggs because they are not get
ting material to make the albUmen Of.
A hen must have large proportion OF
albumen in her food it che lays many
eggs, and she must have plenty OF wa
ter. Eggs are about 81 per cent water,
and if they have to melt snow to get
this water they won't lay many eggs
for you in cold weather. Aud hen
must have lime to make shells Of. II l
remember correctly, about 10 per cent.
of the weight of an egg is IN the shell.
Again, hen must have grit Of some
kind to grind up her food with. All
of these wants must be attended to.
Supplying all but one will not answer.
Wheat is the best single grain to feed
hens-far better than corn. Oats are
good, but the husks sometimes make
trouble unless they are ground. Far

A good hose is necessary in nearly
all gar1 ems, but they are very expen-
sive. I have used one which I made
myself, and which answers the purpose
very we'll, but it will not stand very
hard pressure. During 1895 used 100
feet OF Is, and this spring made $50 feet
more. The cost for $50 feet was $50 l

room for a good seam The strips will
have to about five inches wide. Sew
with q good No. thread, on a lock
stitch machine, and repeat, sewing
back in the same place, then overcast
with ravelings from the same cloth.
Paint with two coats CT boiled oil, but
no tUrpentine. Let the hose hang in

thoroughly set. Tne hose can made

NASH COUNTY ALLIANCE.

Correspondence Of the Progressive Farmer.
NASHVILLE, N. @.
Oar last County Alliance was held
with Mt Pleasant Sub Alliance April9.
This Lodge is in the extreme southern
part of the county and, as its name in
dicates, it is one of the pleasantest and
most beautiful spots to be found. We
are sure this was one of the best and
most enj )yable Alliance meetings it
has ever been our good pleasure to at
tend.
Those good brethren and noble
hearted sisters know very we'll how to
make lasting impression on a hungry
man, and they left nothing undone;
their dinner was just good enough for
king. Nearly all the County officers
were present. One Lodge that has
been inactive for over a year came for
ward and was welcomed back into the
fold. We now have eighteen subs IN
working order, and not a single one
failed to report with fees and dues for
the quarter. What county can beat
this ? That's the way the Alliance is
"a dying out" in old Nash.
Besides this find that the Order is
stronger numerically than it mas been
in about two years It has gained 36
per cent. in the past twelve months.
Now, brethren, part of you at least
have done well; and just see what a
glorious result According to my offer
made to the Sub Secretary reporting
the largest increase by restoration and
initiation from his Lodge for the quar-
ter, find the result as follows:
First prize (PROGREssIVE FARMER
twelve months), WOE By Brother Rozell
Joyner, Secretary Pridgen Hill Sub
Alliance, Elm City, N. @.
Second prize (same papersi monthe,)
won by Brother NJ M Manning, Sec
retary Matthews Sub Alliance, Spring
Hope, N. G.
Third prize cannot be given now,
because there is a tie. Twill now offer
same paper six months to the Secre-
tary bringing in the largest result as
above stated, for the next quarter.
Now let's see who will be the lucky
man. Brethren did you know you
were getting the Alliance on q regular
boom
Well you are, and if every one will
just stand at his post and do his whole
duty, we can add nearly one third
more to our numbers by the July
meeting. Unluckily for the Order the
whole country will soon be plunged
into heated political campaign. As
American citizens it is not only our
privilege but a solemn duty we owe to
ourselves and posterity to vote for and
labor in the interest of the party that
has inscribed on its banner Equal and
exact justice to all'; and the one we
honestly believe will brin. the greatest
good to the greatest number. Now don't
let the Alliance suffer on account of
your political faith.
Fraternally,
Q. Fl. BAINEs.

WEEKLY WEATHER CROP BUL,
LETIN
For the Week Ending Saturday, May 2
1896.

CENTRAL OFFICE, Raleigh, N. @.
The reports of correspondents of the
Weekly Weather Crop Bulletin, issued
by the North Carolina State Weather
Service, for the week ending Saturday,
May 9 h, 1896, indicate that less favora
BILE conditions prevailed for the growth
of crops on account of the cool spell on
the 9Th and 9Th and the continued dry
ness towards the end of the week. Fa-
vorable rains fell on the Sd, 4!h, 5th
and 9Th, which were least in amount
in the Western District; after the 6 n
cool weather set in from the north
east, with even light frost, which dam
aged cotton to some extent. Only the
75h and 8.h were below the normal il
temperature, and the remainder Of the
week was quite warm. The amount Of
sunshine has been in excess of the nor
NAL. Frequent light rains are needed,
especially in the Central and Western
Districts.
EASTERN DISTRICT First OF week
warm, with beneficial rains on Sd and
65h, bat decidedly cooler weather set
in on 7th and 9Th, with minimum ten.
perature as low as 42 degrees Friday
morning, with light frost in north east
portion. The latter part of week warm
and dry, and rain is needed again.
Consid cradle damage to crops was re
v,OrtoI hu n oov1oro boiI clown in pa m
lico county. The effect of cool weather
Thursday and Friday was to retard
growth somewhat, and some cotton
was killed. Planting corn and cotton
practically finished, except what little
replanting may have to be done. Trans
planting tobacco we'll advanced, though
interrupted by dryness at some places.
Corn looking we'll and growing nicely.
Shipments Of truck and strawberries
continue in large quantities. Fruit
trees reported to be shedding consid
erably.
CENTRAL DISTRICT Good rains oc-
CURED Sunday, the 81, after which
weather remained dry. Many pla ,es
are still suffering from drought along
the western border of the district. Tne
cool weather of the 75h and 8 shstopped
growth of cotton, but did not iDJure
anything else. Cotton is being chop
ped and corn ploWed. AS grass Is be
ginning to make some headway, cult
vation is necessary, for which weather
was favorable. Large quantities Of to
bacco have been transplanted and are
doing well, but dryness latter part OF
week interrupted this work; some
plants are now overgrown. Wheat is
heading well, though low. Sweet po-
tatoes eprouted in beds nicely, and
transplanting progressing now. Peach
trees are shedding fruit; Strawberries
plentiful, raspberries ripening. Re

received in large numbers.
