Their thin co*t of hair offords them little protection, hence, the import ance of warm pig-sties, well littered with drv straw, and so tight that cold winds will not blow directly on them It is far more economic il to keep the animals warm in a snug and well ventilate! piggery than by extra feed, and this will promote faster growth, if they are kept comfortably warm by a good building. W hen a piggery is spue ou , with one end open to the wea'her bo iliat winds make their sleeping place uncomfortably cold, a portion sh u d be partitioned off with boards ha ing the edges well jointed, and a narrow entranse made *t the point l-->ast exp 'Bed.

Soon after the snow disappeared, the rye came up, having suffered no injury from the freezing aud thawing of the ■oil. t his mode of raising rye can be followed with better success on wet land, than if the seed is sowed early; still, better crops can be raised bv aeeling with spring rye, if good seed can be procured.

If the kernels are unusually large, seven pecks will be none too mueh for one acre.
