FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. Tin* Massachusetts State Board of Ag riculture discussed tin* subject, and in its discussion Mr. Harris, of New York, naiil it iuu*t bo admitted, as a rule, that ho true office of tlie pig was to use and economise food which would otherwise IK* mated or sold at a profit, but still farm era ooul.l sometime* better afford to food corn or wheat to well bred pigs than to 01l it at the market nrico. lie did not know any more profitable branch of farming than raising pigs and selling them at four months for from $7 to $8 a head. Ho was certain that pigs could bo raised that would dress more than fifty pound* at four month* old, and by studying the wants of the market and paying mono attention to quality, we should he able to hold our own against the West. The aim should be to pro duce choice moat and rich manure. Mr. Hanis said he had endeavored to find out how much pork there was in a pound of corn, and lie Iml found that two )M>nnds of corn would prvxhuv a little more than one pound of increase, lib eral foiling while the pig was growing would not only be more economical but tlioy svulil got more rather than less uieut. One hundred pound* of corn, over and above the amount required to sustain the vital functions, was capable of prodtn ing sixty-one pound* of d reused pork. Science had produced a pig nearly perfect in form, with a small pro portrou of Kmc ami offal, and what was now wanted was a pig with strong digwi live apparatus The pig must hare a gvxxl appetite in older to make cork, and •mould be kept warm, dry and happy iu his pen, with no disposition to run alx*ut and slick his nose into other people's business. The roetlees native pig re quired twenty-two pounds of ivru a week to keep him alive, while the ouiet ami meditative Essex pig only needed tliir tx*n pounds; and he K>lieved a pig could he bred tliat would do even better than that. In feeding pig*, the first object slw uld bo to induce the cost of running the machine. If pigs were kepi in a damp, wet, or dirty pen, more food w.is required to keep up the heat of the Kxlv. Regular feeding was important, becauM irregularity in this respect induced rest lessnees and indigestion. If two pounds of corn, over and above the amount re quired to sustain the vital functions was capable of producing a pound of dressed pork, farmers should understand that •■very extra two pounds of corn required to keep up the heat iu oold, dump pe us. was in actual loaa, uot of two pounds of corn, but of one pound of dreaaed pork. On the subject of pig-manure. Mi. liar ris said he estimated that he got 41J coats' worth of manure a week from a pig whose fiKvl cost htm 371 coats. He presented tallies showing the value of the manure obtained from feeding vari ous kinds of grain and roots. Fig ma nure was very liable to be waited, there was so much urine connected with it. and great mre should be taken to absorb the liquid, which was a very powerful manure. 11 hm—Brmtraa and DrlllrU. Dr. E. M. Pendleton, Professor of Agriculture iu the Georgia State College of Agriculture, has made some exjx-ri menU in sowing wheat broadcast, and in drills, the results being largely in favor of the latter system. In the tirst place less than half the quantity of seed is required per acre, if sown in drills, than broadcast, this being no small item saved where a large area of land is cultivated. The yield reported is nearly fifty per cent, ia favor of drilling, besides, for every bushel of wheat obtained from broadcast sowing, one hundred and thirty-seven pound* of straw were pro Juoed, and from the drilled only ninety nine pounds. From this showing it would appear that a man in raising thirty bushels of wheat per acre in drills, gets a half ton less straw than by the broadcast system; consequently drilled wheat is the least exhaustive of fertility in proportion to the amount of grain { produced. In the experiments referred to, it was further shown that culture of the grow ing crop produced decidedly beneficial results. After the crop was well started in spring, a subsoil plow was run between each two rows, breaking up the earth, but throwing none against the plants. If stirring the soil about corn in sum mer is beneficial, we can see no good reason why it should not be for the young wheat plant. Whether the in crease in yield and nuality of grain will be sufficient to pay the extra cost of cul ture remains to be determined by a series of experiments extending thrwugh several years. One or two failures or successes are not to be taken as conclu sive iu demonstrating the value or worthiesuneas of such systems of cul ture. Farm Mate*. Sawdust is had for floors of the hen nery. Fowls are likely to pick it up and fill their crops with it, and it is bad for them. A clean earth floor is far better. Even a plank floor is betts . No one lias yet discovered tfmt parts green, applied to potato Tines to kill the Colorado potato beetle, poisons the tuber. On the contrary, careful experi ments mode to determine the fact prove that it does not. If vou want to increase the wood .growth tlie coming season prune any time before the sap starts, only vou are not advised to choose a day "when the wood is frozen. If the object is to se cure fruit the following season, prune in June, which will check the growth of wood and develop fruit buds. Millet sliould not be sown with oats. It should be sown separately and law— say last of May to 10th or 15th of Jnne —on clean weft-pulverized land and cut (if for forage) when in bloom and cured hke oth"r grasses. It is an annual plant and the sowing must be repeated each year. The Xbdssippi Hirer. The report of the board of officers ap pointed under fjje act of Congress of June 23, 1974, in reference to the im- Sovement of navigation at the mouth of o Mississippi river has been made. The persons appointed to this service were three officers of the Engineer corps of the United States army, Lieutenant Colonel-i Wright and Alexander and Major C unstock; one officer of the Coast Hurvey, Professor Henry Mitchell; and three engineers from civil life, Mewrs. T. E. Sickles, W. Milnor Roberts and H. I). Whitoomb. This lxiard visited ia Europe and Africa the various points at which engineering science has triumphed over difficulties similar to those found in the case before them. They visited the mouths of the Rhone, the" Vistula and the Danube, and examined the works of the Suez canal, and in the light of the knowledge thus acquired made the sur veys in Louisiana. They have now ter minated tneir labors by tho presentation of a report of that admirable class which gives all tho necessary facts of a great case in a few pages, and bases a postive recommendation on the facts shown to exist. It is deemed feasible to accomplish in the Mississippi all that is necessary in cither one of two ways—by cutting a canal from a given point in the course of the river through the land to deep water, or by such construction of jetties or long piers at the month of one of the channels now open as will keep the cur rent of the river sufficiently close to dredge out the stream and prevent de posit, or at all events deposit within a depth where it could do liarm. Of the board of Seveu persons six favor the latter plan, one only—Lieutenant Colonel Wright—being in favor of a canal. In addition to the various reasons giving in full in the report why the committee be lieve the imjirovement of the south pass far preferable to the construction of a canal, the important element of cost is uiso in its favor, To construct and main tain the canal would cost 811,514,200, and .the works at fhe south pass would eost for construction and maintenance 87,942,110. An lllinoia man, who wants to do good; thus writes to a Chicago agent of the Kansas grasshopper sufferers : "Mr. Ludlow, Sir: I understand you are an agent for Kansas sufferers, and as i am not duing anything at present, i think it would be a good thing to go from one town to another and collect money for the Sufferer* wiak I would like to do.

Tlietfi.ooo tliev obtained thev put in an old Kig. ami Kfforo they could obtain any more thev were frightened away, l'hey left by the luick door and, handing the money to a confixlende on the out side, two of them went around the block and came along by the bank and joimsl the crowd then assembled there.

Ratfei tv and his com rade joinod in the search for the rob Kld the next day, arose fr>m lsd and hastened to find another ami safer phux to avrrtt j it. After considerable ouiwidoration i about the matter the Ixag of money was ! hung beneath the scut of the uueasv roblicr's water closet. The next day, in wandering almut the str\x-t.s iff Carbon dale, heeverheard two men 111 the Har risou Hon -> say that the plmx- might K seatrchtxl. This frightened hiui again, as he tx>uld uot get it out of Ins mind that the place to K< searched was his. He again took counsel with some of In* comivanivins in the crime, and it was de oided to take the money to the saloon of another confederate named Bond. It was there thrown in under the liar At this place the ntonev was counted for the first time. There was in the beg go, SOO, mostly in five-dollar bills. The last hiding place living finally de cided unsuitable, the bog w is given to Raffertv to take care of. He had no house of his own anil carried the money on his j>er-- m for some tune; finally tak ing it to a store, of the owner of which he refuses to give the uame, he took up I a Kind in the tlxvr and pimxxl it there. ! The owner of the store hml nothing further to do with the matter, lhifferty says. To this arrangement the sharers iu the booty were opposed, as it would be impossible to g> t it in they were obliged to leave town suddenly. The money was therefore taken from the sU>re and placed some distance in the entrance to a cool niiue, in a crevice. Hen it lay fi, when Rafferty went to sax* if it waa all safe, and found that the rats had carried off aK>ut two hundred dollars, and mutilated quite a munlier of billa. This was an alarming discovery; so it was rtxxdved, iu order that the responsibility of the charge i might be divided, to share the money among the gang and have an end to the : matter. So tlie division was male, and ' unfortunately an outside man, who acted as watcher, etc., was not given any share of the plunder. This unwise act on the part of the gang was the main j thing leading to their detection. The alighted man took some friends into his confidence, and they at once commenced a svst-*in of blackmail on the parties who had the money. Tin* vigilant detectives accidentally got bold of one of these dixcouteuUxl individuals and punqied sufficient information out of him to war rant him in his subsequent action.

Mills, of South Carolina, was judge of a district court in North ern Texas, fond of a joke, but was very decided in the discharge of his duty. Thomas Fannin Smith was a practicing lawyer at the Itar, and having shame fully misstated tho law in Ills address to the jury, turned to the court, and asked the judge to charge the jury accord ingly. The judge was indignant, and replied : " I)i-a the counsel take tho court to lie a fool <" Smith was not abashed by this reproof, but instantly responded : " I trust your honor will not insist on an nnswer to that question, I*B I might, in answering it truly, lw considered guiltv of contempt of court. " i'inc the counsel 810, Mr. Clarke," said th<> judge. Smith immediately pai l the money, and remarked, "It was 810 tnoro than the court could show." " Fine the counsel 850," saul the judge. The fine was entered by the clerk, and Smith, not being able to rwjxmd in that sum, eat down. The next morning, on th > opening of court, Smith roae, uud, with much defer ence >f manner, liegan : " May it please your honor, the clerk took that little joke of yours yesterday about the 850 as serions, as I perceive from the rending of the minutes. Will your honor be pleased to inform him of his error, and have it erased ! ' The cooI UCHS of the request, and the implied apology, pleased the judge, and he remitted the fine. Weight and Height of Americans. According to a recent work of Mr. TJ. A. Gould, actuary to the United .States commission, in which some very inter esting figures relative to soldiers in the last war are given, it appears that the American nation, instead of being de generated anil inferior to the European race in point of physical perfection, is far the reverse. The figures adduced show that " the tallest men were from Michigan, Illinois, and Wisconsin; the next tallest, New England, New York, Now Jersey; and the shortest from Scot land, England, Germany." In weight, the men of Kentucky and Tennessee were the heaviest, uveraging 150 pounds; England, Scotland, France, Belgium, all between 138 aud 139 pounds. The ratio of weight to stature gave in pounds to the incn: Ohio and Western States, 2.- 185; New England, 2.121; England and Scotland, 2.118; Germany, 2.108. M'MMAItV E NEWS. tleui. at Interest fr.u.
