PROUD TILLERS OF THE SOIL.
Something About the Membership
of the Old-Time Farmers Club
of Pennsylvania.

One of the most interesting clubs
in the world is the Farmers club of
Pennsylvania, which was founded in
1855 by Gen. John Cadwalader, Rob-
ert Morris, the fnancier of the revo-
luton, Benjamin Rush and others
equally eminent. Its membership is
limited to ~ persons, and it meets
once a month at the residence of each
in turn to enjoy the hospitality and
talk about farming, says the Chicago
Record.
The present members of the Farm
ers' club are such horny-handed sons
Of toll as Clement A. Griscom, presi-
dent of the American steamship line;
Alexander j. Cassatt, president of the
Pennsylvania railroad; Elisha Packer
Wilbur, ex-senator j. Donald Cam
eron; Justice Henry Green, Of the
supreme court of Pennsylvania, who
has one of the finest country places
in the world near Easton, Pa. Judge
Craig Biddle, of the same court, who
lives in Philadelphia; Frederick Fra
ley, president of the national board of
trade, who is 96 years old, but in
perfect possession of all his faculties,
with an excellent appetite and diges-
ton; James Logan Fisher and Ru-
dolpn Ellis. The latest accession to
the club is Edward Dew. Morrell, who
married Miss Drexel. Of Philadelphia,
and S20o00,O00. He expects to go
TO congress pretty soon as the sue
cessor of the late Mr.. Harmer, the
father of the house of representatives..
Each member of the club has his
month assigned to him, and his din
ner is always given on the evening of
Thursday previous to the full moon.
Mr. Fraley entertains at his country
place near Ogontz every January.
Mr.. Cameron gives his party at his
farm "Lochiel' on the Susquehanna
river near Harrisburg in February,
Mr.. Fisher In March, Mr. Griscom in
April at his lovely place called "Dolo-
BRAN" near Haverford. In June the
club always goes to Chesterbrook
farm, where Mr.. Cassatt breeds car
rage horses; in July the dinner is
given Mt Judge Biddle's residence at
Torresdale on the Delaware; in Au-
gust Mr.. MacVeagh invites them to
Brookfeld farm, near Bryn Mawr; in
September they visit Mr.. Ellis at
Mauch Chunk; in November Mr.. Will
bur is the host at his stately home
near South Bethlehem; and in Deem
Der Mr. Morrell gives the dinner at
Bryn Mawr.
All of these gentlemen are actual
farmers, although they do not literal
ly follow the plow. They do their
manual labor by power Of attorney.
Each owns farm and lot of cattle
and horses and has an opportunity to

This requires great care, as there

especially if ordering from agents.
There is one general f1ult that
should he looked out for. The head Of
most young trees is started too low or
too near the ground. They are of good
propol ton to look nice wheE you get
them, or, in other words, when small
and ont of the ground, but when they
are set you will find them too low to
work around with team and they
have to be trimmed or pruned so that
they will grow or start out straight
up, and then when they are large and
get to bearing are more apt to split
down, and then they are applied. The
side branches may be cut off and tn,
upright branch left to grow IA year o.
two, then clip off the top aud anothe,
head will be thus started, but this will
set the tree year or so behind. Somt
nurserymen are not careful enough
about keeping the suckers or small
branches cut off the trunks or bodies
of the trees. If they are left too long
they, of course, get large and when
they are cut off will leave bad scar
or knot, and the trees are stunted
more or less. | have seen trees for
which good price was paid that were
hardly fit to set at all on this account

THE IDEAL PORK HOG.
Breeders Association by
A w. Parrot.

The question as to just what type ot
hog will best promote the development
of that animal for the final object for
which he exists-the production of
pork at the lowest cost worth the larg-
est amount o. net profits one OF
more than ordinary interest to all
classes of hog raisers.
The small, fancy type embraces that
class of hcgs that are below medium
in size, small bones, short, smooth
evenly rounded form; fine, silky hair
short nose and wide face. Animals OF
this class are easily kept fat, as rule,
make an attractive appearance and are
popular with those fanciers whose
aim is to tickle the fancy of their Gus
toners, rather than furnish producers
with profitable feeders. Sucn animals,
as feeders under average treatment,
and an almost exclusive corn ration,
would hardly weigh more than one

senseIess specks of Skin.

Most people have doubted their eyes
when at some coniuring performance
they have seen man run needles and
pins through both cheeks, evincing no
pain as he does so. In reality, every
person has hundreds of senseless specks
of skin all over his body, through which
he could run pins, or even cut them
out, without feeling any pain, says the
New York World. These dead spots
are caused by the minute nerves which
convey every sensation to the brain
being either absent in these particular
places or dead and senseless. But
should anyone allow himselfto be blind
folded, and then get one of his friends
to prod him very gently with clean
needle, say all on one arm, out OF every
hundred pricks he will feel only about
60 or 70 at the most.

mounds, at ten to twelve

seventy-fve pounds, at ten to twelve
months old; but, owing to their at
tractive appearance, would probably
sell for five TO ten cents more per hun
dred than the average of same size
hogs that were much younger.
The characteristics of those termed
large sized are ,eXtremely large frames,
unusual length of body; legs and feet
large, hair and general appearance
showing a tendency to Coarseness.
When fully developed these may be
made to weigh from six to eight hun
dred pounds. Hogs of this character
usually grow rapidly under good at
tentiOn, while young, and consequent.
ly are much harder to keep in market
able condition than the small type, re-
quiring from twelve to sixteen months
to so far develop as to fatten easily.
This necessitates a long continued
course of feeding Extending through
extremes of heat and cold, to mature
them, which so increases the cost Of
production as to greatly reduce the
profits on them as feeders.
The ideal feeders in my Judgment,
should be animals something near au
average between these two extremes;
of slightly above average length
stocky feet and legs, broad back
slightly arched, thick hams and deep
sides; animals that, with good ordi-
nary feeding, will keep in good flesh
from pighood to marketable age, and
when ready for market, at ei.yht to ten
months, will weigh from two hundred
and twenty-five to two hundred and
seventy-tive pounds. l believe there
is no more important quality in the
makeup of the hog intended for pork
at good profit, than that of easy fat
tening at any age. If the market I'M
eXpectedly advances, or the price Of
feed gets too high, the hog should be
in condition to sell at once. The i'm.
portant point with the pork raiser is
the type of animal to use to produce
the most profitable feeder. 1t is well
known that the tendency of the corn
fed hog as a producer is to degenerate,
get smaller with each succeeding
generation, finally resulting In the
small sized, small boned type, too
small to produce the desirable porker
Then, in order to keep up the stand
ard to the proper size, it is necessary
to add new blood from those animals
that have been fed for the develop
ment of bone and muscle, in feet AMI
legs, as well as for larger size OF
frame.-Farm and Ranch.
