lot with possibly few old weeds of
IN one corner, but good and commo-
dious range, and If planned to give the
best results, 1t will contain variety
or crops, selected as to their food
value. The pasture should mot be so
small that the hog is compelled to eat
his own filth to get the feed. Every
farm should have six to eight acres
OF hog pasture fenced purposely for
this use. This is in addition to what
range may be utilized outside at times.
Better far to have little too much
than not enough. II the crop gets
ahead OF the hogs and becomes woody
cut 1t of with the mower and q new
growth will start. This can be done
with many plants and will pay even if
the moved portion is not gathered.
The pasture may be greatly fertilizetl
oy this method in many cases. The
enclosure should be divided into two
or three parts, at least, so that while
one part is being pastured. crops may
be growing in the others.
While succulent food is very essen
tial the year round for growing and
breeding stock, the exercise is just as
necessary. Pigs confined in pens will
DO much better If they have some
green feed, but the results will be
vastly better if the pigs are allowed
/. range and the chance to gather this
1eeo Tor themselves. Any green crop
is much better than no pasture, but
some crops for this purpose are very
much superior to others, and a variety
OF crops, even though they may be
much alike in composition, are supe-
nor to a single crop. Many swine
ralsers that appreciate the value of a
nog pasture, do not realize the import
ance OF giving attention to variety and
composition Of the plants to be used
IN selecting the crops for a hog pasture
consider the composition of the plants
as you would consider the composition
OF the grain in ration. Bear in mind
that certain crops are rich in the food
nutrient protein, that is so essential in
the animal system to build up the
frame and muscles, and is very neces-
sary in the food of breeding stock.
crops OF the opposite nature are rich in
carbohydrates, the heat and fat form
ing compounds. Endeavor sto have
some of the former to pasture along
with the latter and the results will be
better.

MUSICAL SAND.

AoASAS&AAS
| Perhaps the most interesting expert
ence of musical sands is that recorded
by Kinglake ia his journey across the
| desert. He says: CAS- I dropped my
head under the suns fierce fire and
closed my eyes against the glare that
surrounded me- slowly fell asleep-for
how many minutes or moments I can
not tell-but after awhile was gently
awakened by a peal of church bells
my native bells-the innocent bells OF
Marlen, that never before sent their
music beyond the Blagdon hills.
my first idea naturally was that
still remained fast under the power of
dream. reused myself and drew
aside the silk that covered my eyes
and plunged my bare face into thelight.
Then, at least was well enough
awakened, but still those old Marlen
bells rang on. not ringing for joy, but
properly, prosily, steadily, merrily
ringing for church. After awhile the
sound died away slowly
Mnglake thought he had been the
victim Of a hallucination. but it is
probable that he heard actual musical
sounds, either issuing from the rocks
beneath; the sand or caused by the
friction of the particles Of sand over
which the travellers were walking, as
in the case of a curious mountain
which Darwin visited ID Guiana It isy
called by the natives Ell Bramador, or
the Believer, because of the sound
given forth when the. sand covering 10

UTILIZATION OF sewage,

The utilization of sewage Is most
important question, but apart from the
chemical and agricultural uses to
which it is now put, there is yet to
be solved the problem of utilizing the
waste with which every river to a less
or greater degree Is polluted. This is
one of the things that they seem to
manage better in France, for in most
Interesting article which appeared a
few months ago in the Leisure Hour
1t was pointed out how the floating de-
bris of the Seine has for years been
source OF profitable manufacture in
obtaining from it greases and other
products Of commercial value.
The utilization of animal waste pre-
sents an extensive field. In the large
pig-killing establishments in this coun-
try, and In some in England and ire
land, there Is literally nothing lost
save the squeal. Whether horse flesh
will ever become in this country an
article OF food 1t is difficult to say,
but an organization in Paris known
as the Society for Promoting the Use
of Horse Flesh claims to have pro-
vided Paris, between 1866 and 1881,
with 67,S09, 400 pounds of meat. With
us the worn-out and dead horses come
out from factory yards, the flesh as
oil for soapmakers and leather dress
ers. and the bones as oil, fat, glue and
manure, to say nothing Of the large
quantities sold for cats meat. The
manufactures Of butterine and oleo-
margarine as substitutes for butter are
now products from animal and vege.
table waste.

Alfalfa Silaee.

A bulletin Of the Colorado station
thus summarizes tie results of tests
OF alfalfa as silage crop: Some tests
were carefully made upon small scale
to see what losses might be expected
IN making silage OF alfalfa. One test
was made with the alfalfa put in
whole as cut in the field, the other
with the alfalfa cut into quarterback
pieces as we cut our corn for silage.
The whole alfalfa showed spoiled
layer three inches thick ON the top
and an inch layer around the side
nearly all the way down. The silage
Of the bottom and middle was excel
lent and was greedily eaten by the
cows and calves. Its loss in the total
weight was 1917 per cent, but its loss
in feeding value was probably a little
larger. The other silo was filled with
cut alfalfa. The next day the silo
was covered with two thicknesses of
building paper and one of boards and
weighted with stone to about SIS pounds
per square foot. When covered, the
silage was hotter than the hand could
bear. Two days later the tempera-
ture lad fallen to SO degrees F. and
in two days more had fallen to that of
the air. The silage shrank and set
tied a good deal. When put in it CON
tanned 80 per cent of dry matter. On
opening, the silo showed 2 inches OF
spoiled silage on top and half an inch
on the sides. The spoiled silage was
73 per cent of the total weight. The
loss in dry matter was approximately
10 per cent. It is fair to presume that
with good tight silo, well made
silage from cut alfalfa should not make
larger loss than was here given in
our small experimental silo, OF about
10 per cent Of Its feeding value & TO
make good silage from whole alfalfa
is much harder proposition. It re-
.quires that the alfalfa be quite green;
that the silo be both tight and deep;
that the alfalfa be thrown into, the ssilo,
In small forkfuls.. and carefully
tramped. and that 1t be weighted by
four to six feet Of some heavy, tight I
packing material like cut-corn fodder.
