The Huntingdon Journal. larm ant( joltAnat. Swine. The Berkshires and poland Chinas are, probably, two as good breeds of swine as exist, yet there are many men who like other breeds better. Indeed, it is not pos. sible to nit everybody with one or two breeds of any live stook. If you ask a farmer what objection he has to this or that breed of hogs, be may not be able to give any other reason, only "I don't like 'em." Twenty-five years ago the great objection to Berkshires was, "they are all hams and shoulders, with too little rib pork," -but now this breed is selling at enormous prices, $25 a pair for pigs six weeks old, and we hear nothing in regard to the "all ham" objection. But it is certain that they fatten easily, and come to maturity early, and they often weigh quite enough to satisfy most fihmers. A &mei who breeds them says: "I killed a two-year-old Berkshire last week that weighed 505 pounds, and 150 pounds of lard. They sometimes run up to 600 pounds, if highly bred." Another farmer gives his reasons for preferring the Berk shires to Poland Chinas as follows : "The difference between the two breeds in re speot to early maturity is perhaps from three to six months, that is, a Berkshire at one year old has arrived at as great a state of maturity as a Poland China at 15 to 18 months. A certain stage of ma turity is necessary before an animal will fatten to the best advantage and make the best quality of meat of which the breed is capable. As we think it most profitable to turn off our hogs at from nine to thirteen months, and as the Berkshires at this age are matured enough to feed well and make a prime article of pork, and the Poland Chinas are not, it furnishes a good reason for oar preference. It Pays to Know How. When a farmer has a good farm, and fails to make a good living from it without running in debt, the cause must be that be dosen't know bow to manage a farm. I annei an illustration from an agricul tural paper : "One man sows a crop of beets. He doesn't know much about rais ing them, but he thinks he will try it. He gets barely enough to pay for his labor, and concludes that it dosen't pay to raise beets. Another man knows all about rais ing them. He has not himself tried every variety, nor every kind of manure and culture, but he knows what others have done, and how they have succeeded best. He adds their experience to his own, and selects the best seed, sows it at the proper season, the right distance apart, and covers it the proper depth in soil manured and prepared in the best manner. He does not stop here. He begins early to culti vate, weed thoroughly, hoes often—and harvests seventy tons to the acre. Does this pay for knowing how and doing his work in the best manner ? The man who sows onions without learning the best way, gets the wrong seed, puts it in ground that is not suitable for it, sows it at the wrong season, doesn't sow it thick enough because the seed cost too much,doesn't sow it evenly because he cannot afford to buy a seed drill, covers it unevenly and his crop is a failure. The man who has taken the trouble to find out how to raise onions, and what kind to saw, raises one thousand bushels per acre. So it pays in farming to know what to do and how to do it, and to make the best use of the experi ence of others. And what is true of onions or beets, is true in a greeter or less degree, of all other kinds of farm produce." Ground Grain. The Western Farm Journal can scarcely be in earnest when it expresses the opinion that neither cooked nor ground grain pro motes growth or increases flesh in animals oommensurate with the expense of grind ing ; it also claims that there are many cases in which the feeding of whole grain has given as great a gain as when meal has been used; certainly such a doctrine will not do in Pennsylvania, even with an lowa indorsement. The nutriment of the grain is inclosed in minute seeks of partially in digestible matter. When the grain is fed whole many of these escape the action of the teeth and gastrin juice and are lost. The effect of grinding is to rupture these and render theircontents available. Steam or heat will make sure all which may have escaped the action of the mill stones and economize the whole. Theoretically, each of these operations is entitled to a certain amount of credit for the work which it performs, and in the final account must be compared with the cost. If the latter exceeds the benefit., a proper and natural observer of economic rules will lead to the abandonment of either cooking or grind ing or both. After fair experiment, we are ready to give up the former, but not the latter. So long as the grain can be ground for one-tenth of its value, the bal ance is certainly on the miller's side, and we think no practical farmer will oppose the theory that eight bushels properly ground is as valuable as ten fed whole. IN ENGLAND they are adopting a horse shoe made of cowhide, and known as the Yates shoe. It is composed of three thickness of cowhide compressed into a steel mould, and then subjected to chemi 'cal preparation. It is claimed for it that it lasts longer and weighs only one-fourth as much as the common iron shoe; that it will never cause the hoof to split, nor have the least injurious influence upon the foot. It requires no calks ; even on asphalt the the horse never slips. The shoe is 7o elastic that the horse's step is lighter and surer. It adheres 53 closely to the foot that neither dust nor water can penetrate between the shoe and the hoof. STATISTICS dhow that the American people eat more butter than bread—at least the value of the butter annually con sumed is greater than the yearly supply of wheat. So says an able writer upon the subject. WITHIN fifty years the number of vari eties of tomatoes has increased from three lrounb Ifirts6t. All Works for Good. "And we know that all Ming,' work together for good to them that love God."—Rom. vltt. 29. All things, dear Lord! Is there no thread of woe Too dark ; too tangled, for the bright design ? No drop of rain too heavy for the how Set in the cloud in convenant divine! I know that all Thy full designs are bright; The darkest threads grow golden in Thy hand ; That bending lines grow straight—the tangled right— The bitter drops all sweet at Thy command Command the Eweetnoss ! Make the crooked straight; And turn these dusky tangled threads of gold' Swifter, dear Lord ! I cannot longer wait ; Faith hath grown weary—longing to behold. I know the promise; but I crave the eight; I yearn to see the beautiful design ; To hail the rose-tints of the morning light; To watch the straightening of the bended line. Why these enigmas ? Wherefore not receive . . . Their bright solution? Then a voice drew near: "Blessed are they who see not, yet believe !" And One I knew approached, and wiped my tear. With wounded hand, and sighed. Ah ! then I fell Down on my knees, and held Him by the feet, My Lord ! my God ! All, all is well ! With Thee, the dark is light, the bitter sweet Power of Habit. Rev. N. L. Brakeman, of Frankfort Lod., is delivering a caurse of lectures to the young people of his congregation on "The harmony between the Bible truth and human experience." One lecture (on the harmony of these two great teachers as to the formation, growth, and power of habit) closes in these words : Of what we have said on the subject, this is the sum : Little acts, carelessly done at first, are repeated until they run into custom; cus tom forms a habit; habits crystalize into character, and character makes immortal destiny. So that habits may yet. bind the soul in chains of eternal fate. A flake of snow i 3 a light and little thing, but flak 36 make the avalanche which shakes the mountain is its fall, overwhelms the city and floods the vailey. That spark from the electric wheel is a little thing; but it is electricity that leaps, in the light ning's volt, from the storm cloud, shatters the giant oak of the forest, and makes the earth tremble to the pulsations of its power. That fantastic spray of frost upon the window pane is a small thing, but it is frost that makes the great icebergs, float ing in the Northern seas, and grinding to atoms the strongest ships caught between their ponderous bodies. Sands form the globe; drops fill the vast ocean's bed; and stars form the innumerable shining hosts that crowd infinite space. Learn well the lesson which flakes and sparks, and sands, and drops, and stars would teach. Take care of the littles, and guard well the be ginnings of thoughts, desires, and deeds. A little, careless habit, may end in a wast ed fortune, a blighted name, a wrecked soul, a ruined life, and a wretched immor tality. Every habit is the representative of almost infinite power for weal or woe; for time and for eternity. Thus have we traced the power of habit, and seen in it a law of sin and the soul ; of character of life; of time and eternity. So does sin iuslave the soul. So helpless is man when bound by the cords of iniqui ty. And so do eternal consciousness, per sonal experience, and human history har monize and demonstrate the truth of th e Bible teaching on the subject. I close with these lines of the poet : Habit, at first, is but a silken thread. Fine as the light-winged gossamers that sway In the warm sunbeam of a summer's day 4; . . . . . A shallow streanalet rippling o'er its bed; A tiny sapling e'er its roots are spread; A yet unhardened thorn upon the spray ; A lion's whelp that bath not seer,ted prey; A little smiling child obedient led. Beware ! That thread may bind thee as a chain; That etreamlet, gather to a fatal sea ; That sapling, spread into a gnarled tree ; That thorn, grown hard, may wound and give thee pain; That whelp, his murderous fangs reveal; That child, a giant grown, may crush thee 'neath his heel." Religious Duties. Many persons have an idea that they are free from religious duties until they agree to be bound by them. They think that attendance upon worship, the support of the Church, the avoidance of unprofitable amusements, and the maintenance of high Christian character may be binding upon the acknowledged Christian, but they do not apply to the irreligious man—especially the avowed skeptic. But moral obligation is not created by contract, nor does it de pend upon belief. It requires no contract to bring a man within the range of God's physical laws. Disregard of the laws of health is punished, irrespective of the ig norance or disbelief of him who disregards them. Strychnine would kill, eve though the victim did not believe in the power of poison or the fact of death ; and so of the moral laws ; it requires no contract to bring man under their authority. By the very nature of his being he is under their authority. There can be no eva sion of the laws by which God carries on his moral government. They must be obeyed or disobeyed. Among these laws are the duties pertaining to the Church of Christ That Church is a most important part of that moral govern_ meat. Indeed, it is, on earth, the very embodiment of that moral government. It is the duty of every one to whom that Church is presented, to enter it, sustain it and to be conformed in conduct and char acter to its teachings. Each one of these duties is binding ; and the non-performance of the first—that of entering the Church —by no means lessens the obligations of the others, nor does disregard of all either change their nature or diminish their force. The Divine law, which lays these duties upon every one, is an eternal fact; and neither its existence nor its power is in any way affected by man's belief con cerning it. ..__....-4. Thorns. The highwa3s of life are thickly set with thorns. Everywhere do they spring up—from numberless directions do they obtrude to trouble and wound us. The name of their hiding place is legion. An old, long disused garment—a day and fad ed flower pressed and laid away—a look or tone recalling bygones—a sunset hour—a familiar scene of nature may each awake thorny memories, to pierce us in some silent hour of retrospect. The thorns which oftenest wound, and with sharpest sting, are those we ourselves plant along the wayside of our pilgrimage—thorns we plant in carelessness, in selfishness, in pride and in passion. And we come in short and painful contact with them, per chance, in long years afterward. VEGETINE.
