" The be"t inaiiiier of fattening hogs hn nut been improved since I was a lad, writes a farmer to the New York Trilmnei They were turned into a clover field ui soon as the clover began to blossom. Peas were sown in an nd joining field. Ii August, when the clover began to fail) peas were ripening. A sufficient supply for the animals was raked up and throwij over the fence twice a day. V.'hcn thi peas were fully ripe they were raked ntn stacked adjoining the fence, and fed out as needed. When the peas were goue,ut when cold weather set in, the hogs wer taken to the pen at the burn and fed corf about n month "to fiulsh them off.' There were pure water, plenty of shadi anil temporary shelter from storms in thi field, and the animals were given sal? twice a week. Wintered hogs of no par ticular breed made a weight of 4IHI t fiOlt, and the spring pigs 250. The coil' ditions for growth of the animals and quality of pork embracing pure air( clean water, exercise and balanced ration) cannot be surpassed. Peas do best oi a soil of medium fertility. They wer( broadcasted, four bushels to the acre, and plowed in, the plow running foul inches deep; thirty to forty bushels an acre was raised, and they tilled a niche in hog-farming. rLAXTINO FOll 110XT.Y. This subject is just now receiving much attention. Tho llfT Wwjr says that the attempt To make more reliabln and more profitable au already remunera tive pursuit by planting for honey, is onlj in keeping with the progress that npieuU turc has made; and ii the unfavorable sea son just past has developed nothing morn than to show the desirability of artificial pasturage, l!S8 will have no unimport ant place in its development. We believe that much lies in store iot our industry resulting frum experiments in this direction. While our country is almmbnt in natu ral flora, every section luivia.sr its flower? peculiar to it that bloom at different time in the year, it may be seeu that a longci succession of bloom can be had by thq propagation of different plants. Not ouii so, but plants that are deep rooted and particularly adapted to dry countries, may . be equally well adapted to dry seasons. Allow me to conjecture that if the en thusiasm would be put in this direction that has marked other departures of the business, we would be surprised at the re sults. Flowers that now 'bloom unseen," so far as their practical adoption by th bee-keeping fraternity is concerned, would be brought into prominence. Yes, flowt ere that to-day ''waste their sweetness on the desert ail"' would be cultivated foj honey. Rightfully the Government is lending a helping hand in this direction. It can nflord it better than an individual, and while we will watch with interest Pro fessor Cook's acres of Kocky Mountain; bee plnut, Chapman honey plant, pleurisy root, and others, we would not depreciate the importance of individual experiment ing and research. Almost every bee-keeper naturally be comes and should be a botanist, and in vestigate fully the merits of the flora of his vicinity, nnd those that would thrive to advantage, and not only investigate -but let the results of his investigations be, known. THE INFLUENCES OF DKFOltCPTAflOX. Few subjects have claimed a greatei share of public attention than the rapid clearing up of the timber portions of tho country, as is evidenced by the action ol the General Government and those of the States in encouraging tree-planting to in some measure restore the loss. Heretofore there has been a general concurrence in the belief that the rain supply was greatly endangered, but more recent experiences bave. Uudud to shake belief iu that theory. Other bad etTiets were also Hipposed to result, and for this reason informat'.on,; leathered from a State where the clcring' up has been of a most extensive chaia-jter,' will be of general interest. lu answer to cuestious on thU subject sent out by the .Michigan Poultry Com mission to intelligent observers iu some of; the southern comities of the Stale the fol- lowing brief abstract from the replies re ceived will serve to show their general character: (1) 'Pcachea and the more tender apples, mice hardy, tire nut able to resist the recent hard "winters.

TOT! COLT'S MOrTH. In breaking a colt be very careful aiiout the mouth. The mouth of ahorse should be more frequently examined thsn it usually is. Sometimes there is an in flammation that needs attention. Pome time the teeth need attention and occa sionally it may be even necessary to draw tooth. It is by no means uncommon that the poor condition of horse ran be traced to some ailment of tho mouth which prevents the proper mastication of the lood. Acw 1 ark otce. WASTB OF FOOD. Food is wasted when an animal . 'posed to excessive cold; when it is da prived of sufficient water; when it is com pelled to drink ice cold water; when it is worried, driven about, or chased by dogs, and, in short, whenever it is not comfortable, happy a-.nl contented. Fvcjj irregular feeding is a waste of food, and sheep especially, which are nervous creatures, will get poor in a few days, or will not fatten if they are fed at irregular hours. In a dairy, irregular feeding will cause a loss of milk and of course this is really a waste of fixid, and a waste of food to which no thrifty farmer will willingly submit. Ameriain A'ji-icvltur-Ut. FAIUf An GARDEN KOTES. Trim your apple trees. Cutworms do not like buckwheat. Don't feed corn to sows with pig. Don't take any chance on j.or seed. Sow blue-grass and red-top for a lawn. If you have not made your hot bed yet do it now. Peas will stand considerable frost; beans will not. Spring calves should not be allowed to Jie down on wet bods. There's no way of cleaning dirty milk. Take nn ounce of prevention. I The best way to keep a lieu from eating her eggs is to make a pot-pie of her. Set out at least one tree during the spring for each member of the family. If you choose butter making, see that your cows give milk rich in butter fat. Cabbage, cauliflower, tomato and let tuce seed ought to be sown by this time. It is best to remove the cream while the milk is sweet, nnd ripen it after ward. F.arly varieties of grains, fruits or vege tables, nre scarcely ever as productive as late ones. Fnglish farmers assert that there is no question about sheep taking readily to good sweet silage and doing well on it. Don't attempt too much. Hatch no chore chicks tliHti you have range, time and money to keep healthy and strong. During the warm weather spinach should never be washed before shipping; it. goes to market iu much better order dry. Test every cow, and do not bo content with your herd until it averages 300 pounds of butter, or 750 pounds of cheese yearly per cow. Select a bull that is from a family bet ter in your line of dairying than your herd. This is a guaranty of improve ment in the offspring. An extra pit of ensilage provided against the day of summer want, when droughts and fierce heats wither and burn, will be a good soiling crop. WhereveT the soil is in proper condi tion to work and crumbles before the plow, or when stirred by the fork or tpade, a large sharo of the hardy seeds may be sown. It is the opinion of a prominent ento mologist that arsenical poisons cannot in my instance be as advantageously ap plied for the destruction of insects in dry mixture as iu water. It is claimed that wheat bi as food for cows does not provide the essentials .'or butter making; that, while the yield )f milk is large, the cream from it rises llowly and churns with difficulty. The best temperature in which to ripen !reara is about sixty degrees. It should c kept cool, not below forty degrees, ind the temperature be slowly raised to the lesired point for ripening and churning. A Microscope reveals Wonders. An interesting experiment was given he other day at the Eden Musee by Dr. Cing with his giant microscope, which naguifies 20,000,000 to 100,000,000 iiucs, and throws a reflection on a cau tas by means of a stereopticon. A drop if beer was 6hown iu the process of fermentation. A crystal of sugar and if salt were also shown.

A heavy rain fell at Green Bay, Wis., recently, bearing with it a large quantity ot irud, which soiled garments on thu line, the windows, tops and sides of houses, nnd everything facing the cast, from which direction the rain came. M.-iuy have laughed nnd scouted at the idea, but tho fact has been established beyond a doubt. Sergeant Schley, cf the Signal Office, says that he measured the water in the raiu gauge, without noticing any peculiarity. (lu turning it out the water was black uud inky in apiieurunce.

"This shows how far the 'regular1 physi cians are from being infallible. "It would seem to lie mora in accordance with justice and common sense were they to perfect their own knowledge lefore thoy ap jvnl to law to prohibit others from healing. "Not long ago a (WoOc reirter called upon ten 'regular' physicians on the same day, and diwiTilwl his symptoms in exactly the sanio language to each.

Here's a little romance of the street: Some years ago a well-known firm en gaged an otlice boy of unusual brightness and gentleness. For sonic years he worked ou, delivering stock, making comparisons, etc., until, finally, ho was promoted to a clerkship. His salary was large enough to enable him to take a flyer now and then in tho bucket-shop. Ouc afternoon one of tho boys was told to go with a message to a famous bull office. Tho boy not looking exactly well, tho clerk volunteered to deliver the message. In the bull office he saw for the first time ouo of tho prettiest littlo typewriters in existence, and lost his heart to her. His tongue didn't tell her so, but his eyes had Petrarch's sonnets in them. She read the sonnets, liked them so well that she got them by heart, and they became engaged. Well, every time that bull firm bought a thousand shares of stock, that young man bought a hundred or two, and every time that firm stood from under, that re markable young man got out, too. When he owned about 300,000 he married his little mine, aud now he is worth about one million dollars, sends in his orders from the finest house iu New Jersey, comes over about once a week just to take a look round, and he is the same quiet, gentlemanly, serene trader that he was when Petrarch's incomparable sonnets glowed in his eyes, until they were photo graphed upou the tablets of the soul of the little typewriter.
