Hogs For Prof

Carl G. Fisher. writing for the South
ern Ruralist, has the following to say
Of the hog as a money maker:
Every farmer. no matter how small.
should keep u or two brood soWs and
raise his W meat. y hog requires
some attention and care, if we expect
to handle them for profit. So does ey-
erything else. I know Of a farmer
who for thirty years rented a five-acre
patch and had Il brood SOW. and from
her raised his meat and had n few to
sell every veal. She cost him practic-
ally nothing. The kitchen Stops and
the learings from the table nearly kept
them. The addition of corn at the
fattening period was all that was re-
Quired. To-day he owns 5000 OIL 1O0c
acres Of the best land in Ohio, and
raises annually thirty to forty carloads
of hogs. He says be owes his success
to the hog business. Not long since.
when buying another farm, be was
asked what he wanted another farm
for. and replied, TO raise more corr,
10 fattcn more hogs: 10 get more
money; to buy more land: to raise more
corn, etc
There are many things on the farm
that would go to waste, and would be
practically useless, were it not for hogs.
In gathering all crops and fruits, there
is more or less waste that can only be
checked by using hogs as scavengers or
cleaners. And there is another import
ant thing 10 consider, and that is the
increased fertility they add to the soil.
Stockmen and farmers claim twenty
FIVE to 100 per cent. more profit by feed
ms their grain into hogs than TO market
price, besides keeping everything on
the farm.
Now. my dear reader. there are sev-
eral things to consider and look after
to make Il success with hogs. l will
mention the most important:
/. See that they have plenty of pure
water at al times: salt and ashes at
least twice Il week.
,. Don't keep more than You can
properly care for. But what you keep,
let them be good ones.
y. Keep them free from lice.
d. Feed regularly.

Lahor's Dawn.

Its golden znof0 comes gently Oh:
yon mountain rises from the nighA

There high appears the mornings glow,
While black extends the night below.
Where pfowl the creatures of the dark,
Where stiN Is heard the ~watchdog's bark.
The light that tips yon mountains crest
Portends the age OF darkness past;
That gloomy night shall lose its sway:
The world of toll shall have its day.
The clouds that clothe the mountains

The DAY shall follow break of dawn
And labor come unto its own.
Shall peace not usher in the day:
On cloud and crag shall lightning, play;
Shall thunder's voice the vale awake
And wild the storm in fury break.
Shall rather reasons ray serene
With soft ~effuigence light the scene.

Why Not Siqn "Y'rs?"

In these days, when economy OF
time and space are Of the highest i'm
portance, it seems to ne that some
of the conventionalities OF correspond
ence might well be abolished.
Why should we write Dear sir"
and then make a pause and begin
a fresh line? Why could not all we
have to say flow straight On in the
same line from Dear sir?'
Again, why should We take three
lines-and this, perhaps, is more i'm
portant-oyer the conclusion Of our
letters? 1t strikes me that it would
be infinitely simpler and more con-
venient if you concluded a letter thus:
Il am, dear Sir, your obedient serv'
ant, Ed'ard Cuttle," all in oae line.
Can anyone tell me the reason of this
custom and when it was originated?

Taking Care Of Old C,tIa1ts.


In no part OF his work is the general
farmer more neglectful Of his interests
than i'll leaving the orchards uncared
for. The following remarks on taking
care OF old orchards from Professor c.
A. KeffeG are timely.
One OF the surest means Of stiinulat-
ing old and neglected trees is by prun-
ing. There Are many trees in which
the number OF dead and dying limbs
equals the number of living ones
every Il e~ldeayoring to prunc Itself.
Natural pruning is q slow process at
best, for the useless branch must first
be Killed by the competition With its
fellows for light and food. and then
must be piEchod off by the slow growth
Of new wood around its base. And
during the years that are occupied thus
insects and diseases find the weaken
ing member very vulnerable, gaining
here q foothold against the healthy
parts of the tree. The removal of a
branch by saw or pruning knife is
the work Of 4 moment, and prevents
IL S-tCi "iSlG oA I1C1 ~. ~ - oS
that q wise f~orethought would have
anticipated the necessity Of cutting
out large branches by the annual re-
moval of such as We're evidently max
ing the crown too thick. The several
branches which form the crown OF Il
fruit tree are competitors for light and
ROOM, Just the many trees that nsake 3
forest. In the forest the trees which
for any reason have an advantage over
their fellows. lis by more rapid growth
or greater vigor or shade endurance.
will ultimately gain the ascendancy
over the others and shade them to
death. So in the fruit tree, certain
branches having the advantage Of po-
sition or strength. overcome others.
Neglect a tree a few years. and the
shaded limbs will be dead, and the
lower branches Of the living limbs
will be greatly weakened. For light
is the energy by which the crown of
the tree is developed. Obscure the
light. and the leaves can do no work,
SO their supporting branches die. Com
pare the size and color of apple leaves
of the lower and inner branches with
those of the upper and outer branches.
Vigor is largely a question Of light
supply.
Such observations suggest the proper
method of pruning neglected trees.
First Of all, II out a portion Of the
crow so that light may be freely ad-
mitted. Naturally the branches re
moved will be the weaker ones, or
those which by rubbing or by weak
union With the supporting member
threaten the viger Of the tree. In de-
termining what limbs to prune out one
must keep in mind the symmetry Of
the crown: and as a usual thing it is
better to remove many small branches
than 4 few large ones. for the latter
practice not only mars the symmetry
Of the tree, but admits the light III
great masses, threatening u scald Of
the main limbs.

Sneep.
On lie average farm it is probable
that hogs are the best paying animals,
but in some respect sheep are prefer
able. On this subject The Planters
Journal says:
On upland farms that eye too much
worn OF depleted of hunus TO produce
staple crops i'll paying quantities. il
fenced for sheep and converted into a
pasture for them. will yield a greater
net return than if cultivated. and at
the same time become more fertile, for
it is a true saying that the foot Of the
sheep feriilizes the land. While i'm
proving the soil, they also improve The
heritage of the pasture by e~xtermilat-
ing the weeds.
1t is claimed for sheep that they
make larger relative gains for food con-
sumed than any other kind of live
stock. Another claim set down for
them is that the annual clip of wool
will pay for the expense OF keep. Per
haps this is a little ~ove2drawn. except
under very suspicious circumstances,
WHICH cdu only be brought ADULT ny
more iudicious management than u.s.
ually obtains on farms where mixed
~husbandry is the practice.
They require less attention during
winter in the matter Of housing and
feeding, but they should be looked
after pretty closely at landing time, as
some mothers ignore their young at
first. and require to be penned with
their lambs for a few days i'll order to
| get them to recognize the obligations
Of motherhood.
The objection to allowing sheep and
| meat cattle to run in the same pasture
can only apply to restricted areas,
| where the stock is unduly crowded.
One of the most decided advantages in
raising sheep is that it requires less
manual labor. the most expensive fea-
ture Of farming. that cultivated crops,
but this is applicable to live stock
generally. but to sheep in 4 more
eminent degree.
An important. il not the most i'm
portant. essential for profitable sheep
husbandry is the proper selection Of
breed for the desired end and the use
| OF pure bred rams.
