A GOOD HOG.
POINTS OF
I could caution the reader against be
ing led away by a mere 'name, in his se
lection of a hog. A hog may be called a
Berkshire or a Suffolk, or any otherbreed
most in estimation, and yet may in reali
ty possess none of this valuable blood. —
The only sure mode by which the buyer
will be able to avoid impositions is, to
make name always secondary to points.
If you find a hog hog possessed ot such
points of form as are calculated to insure
early maturity, and facility of taking
flesh, you need care little what it has
seemed good to the seller to call him; and
remember that no name can bestow val
ue upon an animal deficient in the quali
ties to which 1 have alluded. The true
Berkshire—that possesses a dash of the
Chinese and Neapolitan varieties—comes,
perhaps, nearer to the desired standard
than any other. The chief points which
characterize such a hog are the following:
In the first place, sufficient depth of car
cass, and such au elongation oi body as
will insure a sufficient lateral expansion.
Let the loin and chest be broad. The
breadth of the former denotes good room
for the play of the Iqngs, and consequent
free and healthy circulation, essential to
the thriving or fattening of any animal.
The bone should be small and the joints
fine —nothing is more indicative of high
breeding than this ; and the legs should
he no longer than, when fully fat, would
just prevent the animal’s belly from trail
ing upon the ground. The log is the
least profitable portion of the hog, and
we require no more of it than is abso
lutely necessary for the rest. See that
the feet be firm and sound ; that the toes
lie well together, aud press straightly up
on the ground ; ns also, that the claws are
even, upright, and healthy. Many say
that the form of the head is of little or no
consequence, aud that, a good hog may
have an ugly head ; but I regard the head
of all animals as one of the very princi
pal points in which pure or impure breed
ing will be the most obviously indicated.
A highbred animal will invariably be
found to arrive more speedily to maturi
ty, to take flesh earlier, and with greater
facility, and, altogether, to turn out more
profitably, than one of questionable or
impure stock; and such being the case, I
consider that the head of the hog is, by no
means, a point to be overlooked by the
purchaser. The description of head most
likely to promise, or rather to be con
commitant of high breeding, is one not
carrying heavy bone, not too flat on the
forehead, or possessing a too elongated
snout—the snout should be short, and the
forehead rather convex, curvingupward ;
and the ear should be, while pendulous,
inclining somewhat forward, and at the
same time, light and thin. Nor should
the buyer pass over even the carriage of a
pig. If this be dull, heavy, and dejected,
reject him, on suspicion of ill health, if
not of some concealed disorder actually
existing, or just about to break forth ; and
there cannot be a more unfavorable symp
tom than a hang-down, slouching head.
Of course, a fat hog for slaughter, or a
sow heavy with young, has not much
sprightliness of deportment.
Nor is color altogether to.be lost sight
of. In the case of hogs I would prefer
those colors which are characteristic of
our most esteemed breeds. If the hair be
scant, I would look for black, ns deno
ting connection with the Neapolitan ; but
if too bare of hair, I would be disposed to
apprehend too immediate alliance with
that variety, aud a consequent Want of
hardihood, that, however unimportant,
if pork be the object, renders such ani
mals hazardous speculations as stores,
from their extreme susceptibility to cold,
and consequent liability to, disease. If
white, aud not too small, I would like
them as exhibiting connection with the
Chinese. If light or sandy, or red with
black marks, I would recognise our favor
ite Berkshire; and so on, with reference
to every possible variety of hue. These
observations may appear trivial but they
are the most important I have yet made,
and the pig buyer will find his account in
attending to them. —Rural Hand Book.
The Woods—lion* to I>ln]»ong of Them,
Weeds are the gardener’s enemies;
and very persistent enemies they are,
maintaining a constant campaign against
his success. The thorough gardener un
derstands this perfectly well,and is no less
hostile to these ceaseless intruders than
they are to him. On his promises they
are not allowed to flourish ; one of them
scarcely appears above the soil before it
is rooted up and destroyed. But, unfor
tunatley, there are some who are not so
vigilant. The noxious weeds flourish,
and deprive the useful vegetables of the
best part of the nourishment which they
would otherwise obtain. And in such
cases, as autumn approaches, instead of
clean beds of vegetables that delight the
eyes of the housewife, we see a perfect
jungle of grass, dockweeds and other pests,
an unendurable plague to the prudent hus
bandman.
Now, good reader, if this be the unhappy
plight of your own garden, it is time to
change your tactics; and though it be
late in the season you can begin now.
You need not wait until another spring
before you begin the work of improve
ment. To be sure, you cannot prevent
the growth of pests, that may have al
ready' taken place, but you may prevent
their ripening seed for another crop ; and,
moreover, you may turn this growth to
some account in improving your land.
This is the way to dispose of them ;
Clean outyour garden, removing as far as
possible every weed, root and branch, but,
do not leave them scattered all over the
surface of the ground. If you do, they
will.be very apt to take root and grow.
Besides, if left exposed directly under the
sun, their fertilizing values will be wasted,
for the greatest part of their substance
will decompose and escape by evaporation
The best way' is to gather them into heaps,
and cover with a little dirt, and leave
them to decay. This will leave the
ground clean, audit will remain so much
longer than it otherwise would, and they
will assist to improve tire soil which their
growth has helped to impoverish.
The Butter Golden Rules.
The great secret in butter making ii
seems consists in attending to the follow
ing points :
“Ist. Securing rich, clean, healthy
milk—milk obtained on rich old pastures,
free of weeds.
2d. Setting the milk in a moist, untain
ted atmosphere and keeping it at an even
temperature, while the cream is rising.
3d Proper management in churning.
4th Washing out the buttermilk thor
oughly and working so ns not to injure
the grain.
sth. Thorough and even incorporation
of the salt, and packing in oaken tubs,
light, clean, and well made.
6th. Cleanliness in all the operations is
of imperative necessity.
7th. Judgmentandexperienceiu man
ipulating the cream,and working the but
ter must of course bo had.— Willard.
Remedy for Fee as Infesting Cats or
Dogs.—Many of our domestic animals In
some sections of this country are sorely
pestered with fleas ; the best remedy as a
“ ticket of leave” for such torments, is a
few drops of the oil of pennyroyal, to bo
rubbed over the region of the spine.—
Shold the fleas be very numerous infusion
of the herb may be prepared, with which
the animal should be bathed occasionally.
—Dr. Dadd.
Clark Chatten, an Illinois farmer,
states that one gallon of coal oil to a bar
rel of water sprinkled lightly over potato
vines will effectually destroy the bug.
Some of the Alabama papers say that
the wheat crop in that State will bo an
average, though the cotton crop is much
damaged.
