Green Food for Swino.
I'rof. S. Ji. Thompson, of tin; Ne
braska Agricultural College, speak* ,
from cxpeiit nee on pork growing, in
the AiiHiictn A'jri' u/hiri■> for Octo- |
bcr.
Green food makes th:il li r and j
larger hogs, farmers who raise many
pigs, and feed them exclusively on
coin, know thut some of the shotes
will cease to grow at tin < arly age,
la gin to lay on fat, and in v< r reach
the i i/,- of good, merchantable hogs.
I'hi - tendency to fallen | reinaturely,
at the ■ xpt ns,- of hone growth, is not
set n to any great t stent in gra.-.-ef, d
hogs. A pig fi don bulky green food
will develop a larger stoma'h than
one h I tin t on, < titrated f ! like
c in; and when \ou conn to fatten
it, this enlarged capacity will enable
hi in to iatan :d ■ ■ iiKr corn, and
thus lalten laslct than tie- < tin ; . an I
he a more profitable ho; to grow for
market.
• irass hd hogs are healthier than
those grain fed. Kv< rv intcli nt
brecilt r knows the- ad\.irrages of
feeding green food to sows aismt to
tarrow. 'l'hes h ve less ditlienly wi'.li
tln ir | ign, are i< s liahle to ih strov
them, will niori mhk.un l nut-i
the:n I • iter. Gias-ft I bogs are !t-s
1 able to ili ease. Tlie dreadf, 1 le, '
ciioli ra is i.ot m i i to h - li ar, 1
when- ho/, l,a\, tin run i : n go 1
; i-iover pa-tun . I ndoubtciily, if ex
j si Itoi.nt tg - , tiny would take
tlie di, a'e. lint tin v are i.ot hki iv
to devi lop it. I or t xample, a farmer
! bad his liog. in a small p n. destituli
.
mud ly p 1. w ,Ii soon was m.idt ;s
{ vi!< as pus i ],• by the be g-. Altera
while the hogs began to die in can*
| aiderabiv numbers, with rnptims
resembling c holera. The owner w s
niarintd, toot, ii,. m r,.t c.f this ; n,
turned them on a p itch of gr, n rve,
j and gave them water from a well
j The disease was c heck' 1 and the
J deaths ccao d.
How roav green food 1 nmst
, f'heaj iy provided ? 11\ is the crctp
j i s[ adaptc 1 to this [ urpo'-e, in tin
regi n wist i ! t Missouri. This
I ' old 1 ' own ■it 1 \ in tie* fali, I.;.
' wt !1 prepare 1 • il, m ! if tlie grow
ing sc a-on e titinu, s late in tlie hall,
jso that the ry is likely to joint, it j
j must b, fed down close ly. Tlie la st
condition ! i it to go into winter, c*
; when it covers the ground with a
tide ktn■: of low le ,a\ ts w illl but litl 1c
i tendency to aboot. I a • in tbU cem-'
dition is (it to turn on as soon as
growth liegins in spring. Tlie amount
of feed which two acre s of sue), rte
will furnish is surprising. If not fed
down too close, ami the stock he turn
ed otr about the middle of May or
the first of .lone, the rye will still
make a fair crop. Hogs are some
times li ft on the rye until it fill*,
when they will pull it down and eat
the bends ; but this j rai lire is not
commended. There is a time after
I the rye is a foot high until it is in
milk, that iiogs do not eat it well. A
better plan is to have a field of
elovey or of clovr ami timothy or
orchard grass, ready for the pig"
when the rye is too large to be longer
available. When the rye is getting
too Inigc, the clover is in the lu'st
state to turn upon. The clover will 1
do well until about tlie middle of j
dune, when, if tlie weather turns off
hot nnd dry, it grows ejuite slowly.
It is well to have a patch of oats
sown near and reaely to tide over this
lime. If not needed it can grow for
the harvest. During the hot weather
of duly, August and September, none
of the crops named above can be
fully relied on, and this is especially
true where they have been fed 100
closely. Sorghum or Hrown Dourra
may be sown broadcast about the last
of May and again tlie middle of
June, to be used in July and August.
Experience shows that Horghum may !
lie eaten oil close to the ground when
a fool to eighteen inches high, with
out serious injury. It will eomc up
again anil glow* right along. It is
also an excellent plant lo stand elry
weather.
Preparing fear Early Front In the
Garden.
Dr Geo. Thurber oilers the follow
ing valuable garden hints in the Oc
tejbe-r American Ayricullurut:
The season eluring which garden
vegetables may be enjoyed can be
prolonged at both ends. Many are
ready to do this by forwarding their
Various vegetables under frames in
spring, who neglect to provide for
the fall supply. It is well to plan at
once for the other end of the season,
e-peeially in northern localities,
win re an early frost may play havoc
with the lender plants in the garden
Those who keep tlie run of the weath
er are aware that, in northern locali
ties, at least, there are usually two or
three nights of tuily frost, followed
by a period of glorious weather, hi
which all '.ln- plants that have escap
ed the tirst attacks, seem to luxuii
rttp in the grow ing period which fol
low . In northern localities toma
toes are caught by the early frosts,
ju tas tiny show the best pro l -; ect
for fruit. Melons have set with ex
cellent promise of ripening, which a
single Iro-' will bin and the best ol

How to Surer nfully Transplant
TrocH.
Many think il cheaper and Is tier
to take up large trees from the woods
and transplant them to their grounds
or to the mad side, than to buy
nursery tries. As a rule, such tree
tli* ; tliey fall iKcausc prope-r precau
tions have not been taken, in dig
ging up tlie tree, all the roots outside
of a circle a few feet in diameter are
cut olf, and the tree is reset with its
full head of branches. Whoever baa
seen trees ir. the forest that were up
turned by a tornado, must have been
struck by the manner iu which the
roots run very near to the surface,
and to a great distance. When the
roots of these trees are cut oir at
two or three feet from the trunk, few
or no fibrous or feeding roots arc
left; and if the mass of tops is left,
tlie expansion of the buds in the
spring will not lie responded to by a
suppfy of sap from the roots, and
death must follow. If sueh trees
have the tops completely removed,
leaving only a bare polo, they will
usually grow when transplanted. The
tree ia little more than an immense
cutting ; but there arc roots enough
left to meet the demand of the few
shoot* that start from ibe top, and
growth above and lielow ground are
well balanced. We have wen maples,
elms and basswood trees, fifteen feet
or more high, transplanted in this
manner, without a failure. Home
trees treated in this manner were
j planted in our neighborhood about
I ten years ago. They have now is
| fine heads as one would wish, and
show no iigns/jf former rough treat
ment. Trees in pastures, or on the
| edge of the woods, are better furn
ished with roots. These should lie
prepared for transplanting by dig
ging down to the roots, and cutting
, oil all that extend beyond the desir
, ed distance. This w ill cause the forma
tion of fibrous roots near the tree-
It will lie safer to take two years for
the operation, cutting half of the
roots each year. Such trees may be
removed in safety,especially if a good
share of the top is removed at trans
planting.—A in< riran A'jri' ulturvt.
Sprouted and Uusprouted Potato*.
I lie Massachusetts I'lwjhmnn re
cords an ex fieri merit which goes to
prove that unsprouted potatos arc- the
lit-t for pluming: "To test the dif
ference between potatos that had
be< n sprouted and those which Lad
not. a small | icce of land was piant
< l.lune 10th; tie- sprouts were six
, !ocht or more in length ; they were
| handled very carefully so as not to
i injure them, and planted with the
! sprouts above ground several indu -.
As the potato- had I." < n kept in the
dark the sprouts were white an I very
tender, o much so that it was ox
j pected they would dry uji and die bc
fore riight, but much to our surprise
they gradually turrn 1 green aid soon
b< gari to grow ; by the side of tliesc
was planted, at tin same time, a por
lion of the same lot of potatos, with
the pruuts all taken off; I>e fore these
appeared above ground those with
| th sprouts left on were nearly afoot
in height, w.Ui stalks nearly twice as
large as those from the sprout' 1 m ed
were when they had attained the same
s./.e. The difference lietwecn the
sprouted and unsprouted Mid has
continued up to the present time to
be n arly < pral to what it was when
tiie sprouti d sod had been above
ground a week. Tin re is a markt I
j lit! r< n< e in the size and \ igor of the
stalks ai 1 leav s, those from the
sprouted sud being the smallest.
That the c- >n lit: in of the see i has
much 1 > do with the amount of the
product we haw- long believed, but
. ; let sujij ii-e that leaving the
■ its on i i taking them off woi id
i .ki* so much difference as appears
in 'ln tna! so fur. If the s._ed could
I- kept in a cool place* where it would
not sprout any, ye t kept in good eon-
I dition, probably late potato* would
do much 1 H.-tt<-1 than if exhausted by
sprouting."
Too Much Sutrar.
A mother often complains that he r
chihl is troubled greatly with a sour
M imacli, but this case i* no longer
mvsierioue when the mother, to unlet
the little on< so tliat she can contin
ue- her account of thcrne, sets down
before lur a little dish ,f sugar,
from which tlie chihl may help itself.
Most mothers would give candy or a
cook e instead, though some feed
their children lumps of sugar from
bowl, believing that the children neeil
sugar, and might better have it in
that f rra than in any other. In anv
ca.se of this kind there is a v< r\- fre
quent rail for water.
Do you know how vinegar is mail. l l
Von can get plenty or if by simply
mixing sugar or molasses with water
and keeping it w.aini. A sour taste
Jin the month after rating sweet#, is
of very common occurrence. It i
the acid caused bv the fermentation
of the sugar left in the mouth, with
the saliva that cause* the decay of
J children's teeth-—this and the lack of
bone-forming material in the daily
food. \ incgar "eats" lime, as one
can tell by leaving an egg in vinegar.
Hits of sugar or candy lefi to fer
ment among the teeth destroy their
enamel, as well as do piekies. The
! child that is fed on sweets naturally
craves pickles as an antidote, but
well-fed' children are contented with
plain nourishing food if properly
prepared and sufficiently vaiied.
Many imagine that all children should
have free access to both sugar and
pickles in order to supply what they
suppose to be natural cravings, and
to prevent thefts of sugar from the
family bowl. A mistaken policy—
