WE have, for some weeks, missed
from our table that most excellent
agricultural weekly,the Ifudmnilmnn ,
and feel the loss decidedly. We have
been striving to emulate the many
virtues of the I/11-IHUIIIIWUI, and its
absence deprives us of an excellent
example.
WE are indebted to Representative
.1. 1\ Gepliart for a copy of "Agri
culture of Pennsylvania," for which
he will accept thanks. It is a large
work of more than six hundred pages,
containing reports of the State Hoard
of Agriculture, State Agricultural
Society, State Dairyman's Associa
tion, State Fruit Growers' Associa
tion and the State College. It covers
a large amount of reading matter of
gVeat value to those interested in the
agriculture of the State.
SET a strawberry bed now —a large
one if you can, a small one if you
must, but a lew plants at any rale.
T.iis delicious and healthful fruit is
rapidly becoming popular, and when
01. cj farmers learn theea.se with which
it is grown its cultivation will be
well-ugh universal. We have already
given away plants to start live new
beds this summer. There is no la tter
time to plant than now—thin unit.
A correspondent of the Connecticut
Farmer tells of picking liorries nine
inches in circumference from plants
set the first week of last September.
WE fully appreciate the compliment
paid us w hen so excellent an agricul
tural journal as the Connecticut For
mer transfers to its columns para
graphs which we have, with some
painstaking, prepared socially for
this page. The Former' selections
are always good—in the case under
consideration conspicuously so—and,
courtesy constrains us to say, its edi
torials are better. We are glad to l>e
found in so good company. Rut when
the Former places its extracts from
the DEMOCRAT'S editorials in the cen
tre of one of its handsomely priuted
pages, surrounding it on all sides by
at*least a dozen most excellent quo
tations from other journals, each of
which is carefully credited to the
pajicr or author from which it is
taken, while in that from the DEMO
CHAT this formality is entirely ignor
ed, wc think the prominence given u.
is rather more than the merits of the
extract warrant. Wc are very mol
est, Brother Sedgwick—don't make
us so painfully prominent.
THE article of "Ex-Farmer" on the
grasshopper question, to 1* found in
another column of today's issue, is
from a gentleman of rare intelligence
and habits of observation, and a long
ex|>orieiice in farming and country
life. We specially commend it to our
readers for these reasons. The right
thing for nil fanners, everywhere, to
do, is to li find ret the £>•>'/," and this is
easily done if we will unite in en
forcing the laws. Remember, no man
has a right to enter your premises
with a gun without your permission,
and birds will soon accumulate on
farms from which guns and gunners
arc excluded.
In this connection it gives us pleas
ure to notice that the county agricul
tural society has taken up this mat
ter, and at its next quarterly meeting,
which will be held on the evening of
the first Monday of the November
tenn of Court, will have a pa|er on
the subject, after which it will lie
discussed in all its bearings by those
present. In the meantime let farmers
who have been honored with a visit
from the pests this year leani all they
can of their habits and characteris
tics, and come to the meeting prepar
ed to impart their information.
THAT pigs will fuUen much faster
on a small amount of fooi in warm
Weather than in cold is proven by tl e
experience of every farmer who
makes pork, and "takes observations."
By this tiinu the stubbles have been
picked pretty clean, and the pigs are
in good condition to make the most
of liberal feeding from this on.
Many thrifty and provident fanners
so arrange as to keep over a portion
of oltl corn for use at this season,
well knowing that one bushel of old
corn fed during the next six weeks
will make more pork than two bushels
ol new corn fed during the six weeks
next following. While many fail for
various reasons to do this, most man
age, in some way or another, to com
mence giving the pigs a little better
fare about this time to get them into
"good, thriving condition" by the
time the corn gets fit to feed. In
our own case, knowing last spring
that we should be short of corn, we
sowed a couple of acres of oats and
peas—two bushels of each per acre
—and on the l.'itli inst. harvested
and thrashed the mixed crop. This
we are grinding, and giving our pros
pective porkers all they will cat of
it, after having been allowed to
"sour" or ferment. Our early pota
toes were closely "sorted" when dug
and none but the marketable ones
put away for keeping. Much day a
l>ortion of the small and unmarket
able ones, with that part of the
"windfalls" from the orchard which
are unfit for other use, are crushed—
not pressed—in the hand cider mil).
The kitchen slops are mixi-d with
this, and the whole thickened with
the ground peas and oats, and left to
ferment. Two barrels are used, the
pigs being fed out of one while the
other is being prepared. So far this
method is proving 'piite satisfactory,
the pigs eating with avidity nnd
gaining rapidly, in another column
we give a seasonable collection of
paragraphs on the subject of pork
in iking, gathered from practical and
experienced farmers, which w ill prove
suggestive to many, even of those
most experienced in pig raising and
feeding.
The Fair.
Wc send out witli this issue of the
DEMOCRAT, a supplement containing
the list of premiums, giving all need
ed information concerning the com
ing fair of our County Agricultural
Society. Wc sincerely hope that the
farmers of the county, w ill turn out
in force, and make of this fair what it
should lie, a great surer a*. I,et
every farmer in the county, if possi
ble, come, and bring with him some
thing to add to the general interest.
The American Agriculturist in sp< ak
ingof the matter, says: "The isola
tion of the family is the great misfor
tune of our farm life. The house is
placed as near as may lie in the cen
ter ofoflr large farms, and neighbor
ly intercourse is dittlcult. llonce it
is all the more necessary for the far
mer and his family to make the liest
of the opportunity for social enjoy
ment afforded by the local fair. If
the fair did only this, it would lie
worthy of encouragement; but it
docs much besides. These good
people will go the Fair, sec tnueh,
meet many old friends, learn much,
and, let us hope, bring away pleas
ant recollections—and some prem
iums. But what they will take is
far better than any premiums they
will bring away—for they take their
best—they show that tlicy have a
pride in the farmers' life, nnd they
show the best product# of that life—
not in the crops, the steers, the coit
ami chickens, the brend or quilt, but
in the very liest of nil product# of
the farm, the men and women, nnd
the boys and girls, who will soon lie
men and women. These are the liest
products of the American farms, and
they arc such products as the farms
of no other country can show."
Tall Farming.

A woman mannges personally n
farm of twenty acres on ttie Dela
ware river, and mnkes a profit of
a year from it. Her name i#
Mrs. A. C. Thomas, and she deserve#
credit for her energy.— Exchange.
Yes, we should think so. Any
woman who can so "manage a farm"
as to clear $1.25 per acre from it in a
year, certainly "deserve# credit for
her energy." If Mr#. Thomas will
take our farm nnd "innnage" it so as
to accomplish this result, we will
cheerfully pay her a salary $40,000

with the little remainder of $lO,OOO.

PotatocH are the bent roots for
swine.
Feeding for pork may best lie be
gun at once.
If pigs arc closely confined in pens,
give tliem as much charcoal twice a
wiH-k its they will eat. This corrects
•any tendency to disorders of the
sLomueh.
Pigs to be fattened should be put
up now. They will make more
growth in a month now than in two
months by and by. Give them plenty
of pure water and dry, clean pens.
Those who turn oil their pigs
quickly, will probably make the most
money. At any rate, they will make
their pork cheaper. It is llie quick
ly fattened uuimul that pays.
V 1 "
The profit is in selling pork early,
thus saving a month of the most ex
pensive feeding, when half tin- food
goes to keeping up warmth in the
body instead of into fat.
Theaiiimal machine is an expensive
one lo keep in motion, and it should
lie the Object of the farmer to put his
food in the most available condition
for its immediate conversion into fat
and muscle.
Swine ought to lie kept perfectly
dry and clean, and provided with a
warm shelter, tu which they can
retire al pleasure. This will greatly
hasten the fattening and economize
the food.
lie that would have healthy pigs
should give them a variety of clean,
wholesome food, pure water, go<sl
natural or artificial shade to protect
them from the heat, and a place to
root in the soil.
Not less than one-third, and |h r
haps more, of the* whole grain fed to
swine, is saved by grinding and cook
ing nr souring. 1i et care must be
observed that the souring lie not
carried so lar as to injure the food by
putrefaction.
I'igs should always have access to
fresh water. No matter how "sloppy"
the food is, or how much dish-water
is furnished, they should lie furnish
ed with pure water. We are satis
fied that pigs often suiter for want
of il.
Cleanliness in the |K-lIS will pre
vent disease, and keep vermin away.
To keep places of this kind clean is
much less trouble and lalior than to
make them clean when they have
lieen neglected. I'lcnty of whitewash
inside will cleanse ami sweeten.
When pigs am put up to fatten ami
fed on dry corn, it is the practice to
give them hut little water; but tlicy
require some. It would not Is? jms
sible for a pig "to live for weeks"
without water or other drink when
feeding on dry corn, although when
fed on new "soft' corn, a very small
quantity of water will Is.- sullicient,
and possibly, if the corifis very soft
and unripe, water might not be indis
|>ensable.
Flesh and fat are now made at half
the cost of feeding in Novcralier.
Much fool may now be gathered up,
which costs little, and would other
wise lie wasted. Iloil the screenings
from the threshing machine with
small potatoes for the hogs, an-1 feci
sound old corn, or, what is better,
corn meal. Fork made with "Soft
corn is not cheaply made. Keep the
soft corn and nubbins for the store
pigs.
In experimenting with a pig, Mr.
Lawcs found that 500 pounds of liar
ley meal, given as freely as it could
he eaten, increases! his weight from
100 to 200 pounds in seventeen
weeks. Had a longer time lieen tak
en in the consumption of the food,
it is conclusive that a good portion
of it would have been expended in
the maintenance of the animal's ex
istence, and not nearly the amount
of fat been produced.
Wo cannot too often call attention
to Uic great mistake which many far
mers make in not feeding any grain
to their pigs during the summer and
autumn, while at pasture. It is not
uncommon to furnish the pigs noth
ing hut grass and the slops from the
house until the time the corn crop
is ready to husk. They nrc then shut
up in a |cn, and thrown whole corn
on the car. The pigs have lieen ac
customed to a bulky rood, from which
they can extract little more than suf
ficient nutriment to keep tin-in alive,
when, suddenly, they are shut up, and
nllowed nothing Imt food containing,
in a given bulk, three or four times
an much nutriment. What wonder
if a portion of it is voided in an un
digested state? If the pig fills his
stomach, what else can he do with it?
Ills powers of digestion and aasimi
lation are not three times as great to
day as they were yesterday, when he
had nothing hut grass, or other suc
culent food, when shut up to fatten t
The corn fed to a pig while at
grass increases his powers of diges
tion and assimilation, and as he ap
proaches maturity, he will be able to
digest and assimilate more concen
trated food. The aim must lie to
furnish him all he can possibly cut,
digest, ami assimilate. It is here
' that cooking comes to our aid. It
enables us to "crowd" the fattening
pigs forward rapidly to maturity.
It is a costly process, feeding pigs
wholly 011 grain, ami we must short
en the time as much as possible.
1 The pigs should IKS kept growing
1 rapidly during the summer, increus
-1 ing the supply of grain as tlm pigs
get 01-ler, and when shut up to fatten,
four or five weeks feeding on rich,
cooked food, should fill them up with
; lard.
To cook grain for pigs merely for
the sake of "making it go further,"
will seldom pay on ordinary farms,
This is particularly the case where
grain is comparatively cheap, and
' | fuel dear. It is profitable only when
j adopted for the purpisc of enabling
the pigs to eat and digest a greater
quantity of food, and bring tliem
rapidly forward for market.
And it is still an open question
whether we cannot adopt soum cheap
er method of increasing the digesti
bility of grain than grinding or cook
ing it. Where grain can lie ground
, cheaply on the farm, we would grind
or crush it for all kinds of stock.
Fill when il has to lie sent some dis
tance to a mill, il is worth while to
see if we cannot prepare it at home.
In Mr. I,awes' ex|M.-riineiits on
sheep, eight Hampshire Down sheep
were put in two pens, four in each
, pen, and allowed one pound of bar
ley for each sheep, per day, the bar
ley Is ing coarsely ground. Fen 1
was allowed the same quantity of
barley, also coarsely ground, but lie
fore Is ing fed, it was ronknl in roil

Soaking the barley enabled the
sheep to eat more food, and grow 25
per cent, foster than those having di v
barley. Had tin- sheep lieen all-iwed
mar'- of tlie soaked baiiev, the result
would probably have l*#n -till tann
in favor of the practice. Um- of the
sheep in |s-n 2 gained I lbs. js-r week.
He probably got more than his just
proportion of barley, an-1 the otln r
three were obliged to make up the
deficiency in eating more mangles.
And so the total gain, in pnqiorlion
to total food consumed, is not as
great as it otherwise would have been.
The amount, of actual dry matter in
the food, required to produce I lb. of
, increase, is nearly identical in built
jams—lbs.
With pigs, when they arc allowed
all the grain they will eat, we have no
doubt that soaking the grain would
show still better results.

they rarely if ever disturb a stock of sound
