The HORN.
It is a trifle early yet to think of pre
dicting what the corn crop will be, for
although the season has thus far been
so unpropitious, in many large sections
of the west it is not unusual to get a
very satisfactory crop' even when the
planting has been done after the middle
of June.- But appearances certainly
indicate that the crop will be far below
the average, and if tbat shall prove to
be true, it means tbat pork will be high.
It, behooves our swine
breeders to do all within their power
to reap whatever advantage there may
be promised. During the summer it
costs little to keep the hogs growing
and improving, and a little extra care
to that end, always profitable, is doubly
ao when prices for hog products prom
ise to be above the average. One of
the beauties of keeping hogs is that
the animal consumes almost anything
tbat is offered it. It is a mill that
grinds the refuse of the farm into value,
and very much that the bog eats,
would be thrown away and wholly
lost, if it was not thus fed. Therefore,
altboagb the corn may be short and
the price correspondingly high, swine
may be liept growing, of course, with
outit, and tbey may get considerable
of their fat from food that is worthless
for other purposes. Thus the refuse of
the farm, under such peculiarly favora
ble circumstances, will be made worth
a great deal, and may make the cost of
pork production, even if corn shall be
bigb, comparatively moderate.
When corn is high, of course it is de
sirable to get our hoga into market as
soon as possible, and it will aid us to
do this by leaving as little for the corn
to do as possible ; in other words, let
the bog have every advantage which
the season naturally gives, and see
that nothing is wasted which nothing
else but the hog will profitably con
sume. Hog raisers seem to be greatly
favored just now. We hear very lit
tle of sickness among swine. There
has seldom been so little complaint in
that respect as for the last several
months. This apparent freedom from
disease, however, should not induce
swine breeders to be careless of the
health of their hogs. Human beings
ward off disease by carefully protecting
themselves, keeping themselves free
from contaminating influences, regu
lating their diet and keeping cleanly.
Animals must be treated similarly if
wo would keep them iu health. If the
advice we have given, to help the bogs
growing, were more generally obeyed
we should have less 'hog cholera.' In
stead of building up one part of the
animal to the neglect of another part,
we should then succeed In getting a
symmetrical development. The ani
mal would be strong enough to bear
the fattenning process without injury.
The bog should have clean, healthy
surrounding, or it will be a marvel if
it keeps in health. It should, also,
even in apparent health have an oc
casional dose of charcoal. Tbat will
not only do it good by imparting car
bon to the blood but it will absorb the
injurious gases of the system, which
are often the specific poisons that
breed disease. There is nothing in
this world that is so good for the
health Of a\*ioe as charcoal.— Western
Burat.
Tko Use of lilmc in Farming.
Au Irish Agricultural paper says :
The uses of lime are in part mechan
ical and part chemical. Upon deep
alluvial and clay soil it increases the
crop of potatoes and renders them less
waxy. Sprinkled over potatoes in a
store heap, when both the potatoes
and lime are in a dry state, it preserves
them, and when riddled over the cut
sets at planting time it wonderfully in
creases their vitality. Lime eradi
cates the finger and toe disease in
turnips, and helps to give firmness to
the bulbs. It gives wheu applied to
xneadow land a larger product bv
producing more nutritious grasses,
also by helping to exterminate the
seeds of mosses and aquatic plants.
Upon arable land it destroys weeds of
various kinds. It rapidly decomposes
vegetable matter, producing a large
amount of food for plants in the form
of carbonized elements. It acts pow
erfully upon some of the organic parts
of the soil, especially upon sulphate of
magnesia and alumina. It proves
fatal to worms and slugs and the
larvae of insects, though favorable to
the growth of shell'iearers. Slacked
lime added to vegetable matter causes
it to give off its nitrogen in the form
of ammonia. Upon soils in which
aiutnofiia is combined with acids it
sets free the ammonia, which is siezed
upon by the growing plants. Its solu
bility in water causes it to sink into
aud ameliorate the subsoil. When
the soil contains fragments of grauite
or Jrajj rock, lime hastens their decom
position and liberates their cpristitoents.
fts combination with the acids in the
soil produces saline compounds such
as potash and soda, wich immediately
enter into plant growth. Strewed
over plants it destroys or renders un
comfortable the location of numerous
species of insects which prey on the
surface notable tha turnip fly.
Worked ia with grass seeds the bene
ficial effect of lime, chalk, marl and
shell sand--into the composition of
all of which lime largely enters—has
been known to produce visible effects
for upward of thirty years. Applied to
manure, lim® serves to destroy the
seeds of various weeds, the larvje of
insects, and otherwise exercises a very
beautflul uffect iu the liberation of or
ganic conStllHents, and then assists in
thsir combination with other and more
useful forms of plant food.

Many of "the eggs, however, will be
unfertile. For success on a large

The birds should have the run of a
field. Care should be taken not to

eggs be required, meat diet must be
given and warn) quarters at night.

Laying hens or pullets do not re
quire such food a3 will induce them tc
acquire a superbundance of fat, for this
at a certain stage prevents the produc
tion of egg. fi , rendering thn birds
sluggish, and disposed to fatal diseases,
When the birds are to be fattened for
immediate consumption, then strong

doubt, for this purpose, while for lay

are preferable, and generally used by

Elmira (>f. Y.) Advertiser.]
On the north road, about four
miles from the city, lives a highly re- j
gpectable family named Stetson, con- |
Bistin 3 ' of a young man and his wife :
and the aged and infirm sire of the j
lady. The old gentleman is crij -
pled with the rheumatism t» such . n
extent that he canuot leave his chair,
but is wheeled about the room by his
daughter. The Stetsons are the
owners of a large powerful dog, half
mastiff and half Newfoundland, noted
for his intelligence and sagacity
throughout the whole neighborhood,
while a near neighbor possesses a
shaggy Scotch terrier. Between this
ill sorted pair the strongest friend
ship has grown up, the dogs being
almost, inseperable. Mr. Stetson has
beeu digging a well, and had reached a
depth of twenty feet, but had uqt yet
walled it up, when about a week ago
he and his wife found it necessary to
visit Elmira on business. The wife
drew her father's chair up to the win
dow in the sunshine, and otherwise
rendered him comfortable, and left,
him watching the gambols of the
strangely matched friends.
Mr. Stetson had not more than
driven out of sight when the little
terrier fell into the well, which con
tained about two feet of water at the
time. The old dog was almost fran
tic and lost his canine presence of
mind in a wonderful undignified man
ner. He would look down into the
we|l at the yelping, paddling terrier
and then howl aqd run to the window,
scratching on the casement and other
wise exhibiting all the evidences of al
most frantic grief to attract the old
mac's attcptiop. Suddenly he paused
a moment and looked as if sol:
lectiug his scattered senses. Mrs.
Stetson, before leaving for town, had
taken iu the washing hanging on the
pJot,hes-line, coiling up the line and
laying it on & bench. The mastiff
had seen the workmen draw up pails
of water by means of the rope, and an
idea seemed to strike him. Seizing
one end of the rope in his teeth he ran
tq well with it and commenced
> slowly drawing ii up to him and low
ering it into the well. The h'eipiesa
old man at the window who was
watching the proceedings with
breathless interest, then saw the old
dog pommence pulling up the rope by
walking slowly" u*ay the well.
Slowly and carefully the sagacious olii
mastiff drew up the cord, when up
over the side of the crumbling walls
caine the muddy, drippling form of the
almost exhausted terrier clinging to
the rope witti his When Mr.
Stetson and bis wife came homo the
old man attempted to tell his story,
but it was so incredible that they could
hardly believe it, but upon Mr. Stet
son's going out to the well, he found
tba r f iud-bedaubed rope lying where
the old dog had left it, and the prints
where it had cut into the soft eartn
sides of the well were plainly discerni
ble.
