f ftUlUi HOOS AHD PE1TIKT CHOLIKA.
l*ell-known practical farmer, intelli-
Q'andof wideobservatlonoontrlbutesthe
|lo*ing to the Country Gentleman:
•r*Past«age is necesary for the healthy
Telopment of swlne for a very important
;*■» reason than exercise, and that is
r the hog is a grass-eating animal, and
J^d be treated as such as much as the
**• All animals, furnished by nature
>> organs adapted to the digestion of fl-
:tls food, will suffer in healtlry develop-
u' 'when compelled to live on concen-
^ food alone.   The hog, in a state of
-"te, had about the same proportion of
^d lean as other grass-eating animals.
9 T'g has often been made a mere roll of
''*0re by improper  feeding than   by
'j'1 of exercise, although the latter has
[ a T-9ry injurious effect.   It seems nec-
ary to constantly bear In mind that the
animal has no power to change the •?
elements in its food;  that
must be adapted to the
inteaded—must   have   the
proportion ot muscle and Iat-
ing elements—to build up
of the animal system.
* Good pasture grasses have
trltlve ratio of about one
mlnoids  to  4}i of carbhydrates.
while com has a nutritive ratio |
of one to 8.6, showing the great su- |
periority of pasture grass as a mus-
cle-fom.lng food.   This, then, indicates one reason why pasture grass
is a healthier food for the pig than
corn; but there ls still another reason which should never be lost E
sight of, and that is, that the pig's i
stomach is adapted to the digestion *"
of fibrous food—that he lsa gra*-
eatlng   animal.    If    pig   raisere
would bear this in mind.and a.waj s
give them a certain prop-* rtion ol
fibrous food, we should hear much
less of cholera and other diseases
that pig 'flesh is heir to.'
"The effect of this erroneous system of feeding for so long a time
must also be taken into consideration. Excessive fatness has become the characteristic of several of
the improved breeds of pigs, and
son e'. lme is required to modifyi his.
The wr. tn has taken pigs at wean-	
ing age, of the same, litter, dlvid
ed as nearly according to weight and
thrift as possible, three in each lot,
feeding both lots for a few weeks upon
corn-meal ahd wheat middlings, wet up
with skimmed milk for drink; but to one
let a little green clover was given, which
they soon learned to eat. The milk being
discontinued, the meal and middlings were
soaked in water for both lots, but to the
one lot green clover, run through a cutter,
was mixed in and gradually increased as
demanded. These pigs were kept in pens
with a small yard attached. The lot with
clover averaged about two quarts of cut
clover a day per pig during the five months
of the experiment. It was noted that this
lot appeared very healthy, were always
ready for their food, and always lively;
while the other lot often ate greedily for a
time, and then would eat little or .nothing
for a meal or two, seemingly fasting to get
over a feverish state of the system, and
then go on eating full rations as before. It
was found that each lot oonsumed the same
amount of meal; but the lot fed on meal
alone weighed, each, 150 pounds-, while the
lot on clover and meal weighed 210 pounds
each—the very large difference of 40 per
cent, ln favor of the clover.
"This could not have been the result
merely ot the nutriment in the clover, for
that, although valuable as far as it went,
was quite'too small to produce so great a
result. The effect of the clover was to cause
a more complete digestion of the meal eaten. The fibrous clover separated the particles of meal, and the whole ration went
into the stomach in a spongy condition, allowing the gastric juice to saturate the
whole contents of the stomach at once, and
digestion proceeded equally throughout.
The pigs on meal alone appeared often to be
constipated, while the other lot were entirely free from it. Those upon meal were short,
dumpy-bodied, and the other lot much
longer and rangier. It was easy to see that
the muscles were much better developed in
those with clover. The writer has experimented in many different ways to determine the effect of fibrous food upon the
pig always showing its beneficial effect. If
grass were made a regular element ln the
rations of growing pigs, they would soon
learn to consume a larger quantity than
they will now, most of them being unaccustomed to its use. It is alwayB profitable to feed some grain with pasture, and
with the young pig the particular effort
should be to develop the muscles and
frame, to give a rangy body, and when this
done lt Is very easy to give all needed Is
rotundity and fatness."

"Wintering Pigs.
I have found that it costs as much or more
to winter a young pig as it does an old
hog, and have abandoned the practice ot
wintering anything but breeders. A breeding sow may be allowed to have a -litter of
pigs in the spring which can be sold, and
the old one will get in fine conditioD, almost, if not quite fit for butchering, on clover, cornstalks and roots. And we count the
inccome derived from the pigs as an extra
gain. There is always a demand in the
spring for young pigs at from $2 to Jl each
for fattening, and a higher price lor breeding stock, which makes the profits on a
breeding sow equal to that of a cow with a
great deal less cost of keeping. By a little
painstaking and effort a farmer can make
market for his pork at a price more remunerative than what is usually paid lor it ln
the carcass. Town-people will buy and eat
more pork if they know that lt has been
grown and fattened on wholesome food.
We could have sold in Schenectady for 10
cents a pound a ton of sparer! bs produced
on our larm if we had them. Oar headcheese sold at the same price,' and we expect to realize from 12 to 15 cents for the
bacon, hams and shoulders* The highest
price which was paid in our local markets
for pigs was seven cents per pound. The
lard was sold for from eight to 10 cents per
pound, acoordlng to quality. Oar pigs are
cut so that they may be wholly marketed
ln the above forms. Pigs grown and fattened as I have described produce meat not
only of the healthier.* character but of the
very best flavor, which of course increases
the demand for them.—F. D. Curtis, la N,

Foiled Cattle.
Mr. G. F. Taber, Paterson, N. Y.,
thinks that the prejudice against polled
cattle Is not to be wondered at ln view of
the fact that so many persons are directly
Interested In the horned breeds. Bat the
prejuduce Is without reason, and is sure to
give way, indeed is rapidly giving way,
before the knowledge of the obvious advantages of this improved stock, which advan*
tageshe hag proved in his own experience
and sums up as follows in The Rural New-
Yorkei:. . ' ;
"No farmer who has owned a herd of improved polled cattle will ever again have
cattle with horns. A dozen of the polled
cattle will drin£ at the same time from -a
trough, Which would accommodate but one
animal havlng'borns. The same number
will crowd together under a shed for shelter
the whole space which one horned animal
would consider necessary for its comfort,
driving its fellows out. With these polled
cattle the farmer and the shipper of stock
need have no fear of damage resulting lrpm
the goring of horns.    There is'now a
a cross o'f these on horned cows being for
the most part hornless. The bnlls are notably quleti"

White Short-horns.
Mejor B. P. Poore, of Indian Hill Farm,
Mass., gives, ln The American Cultivator,
his reason*^ for keeping white Short-horns,
and showtt how this color has become fixed
ln his herd:
"I will frankly coniess that It is sentl-
menallty, (,ome may ra.ll it a whim, which
prompts me to keep up the distinctive color
of a herd established by my father In 1830.
He then purchased a white bull calf from
the herd of Mr. Hall at Harlem, near New
York; and since the'n he, and in later years
I, have purchased at intervals of four or five
years whtye Short-horn bull calves. For
ten or a dozen years the herd was mottled,
but white began to predominate, and for
the past ten years every calf has been white.
I have raised my own oxen as well as co we,
and while the color has been a mere question of fancy, lam more and more impressed with excellent qualities of the Shorthorns for working oxen, for milk producers
and for beef. Of course, in speaking of the
dairy qualities of Bhort-horn?, I mean the
yellow-skinned strain and not the white-
skinned Short-horns, which are only fit for
beel."

A tout a month ago I had my aged horse
in field; on fetching him in he had two
punctures on right side of face just above
mouth. I took it to be a snake bite. About
same time left eye swelled up as though
with* cold. In about a week after right
side of face swelled very much and finally
burst a few Inches above the holes above
named; but before bursting I pressed out I
ol said holes a large quantity of very offensive matter. I bathed swollen part with
decoction of mulleu and sihartweed, and
greased with lard and ' kerosene. The
wound or abscess healed up, but the retina of the eye appeared very dark-red and
has now turned of a whitish cast, and he
appears aboutbllnd in it. For about the
last ten days he has bleeding at the right
nostril constantly. Appears very languid,
appetite pretty good,-hair looks ail right,

Foundered. .
Editors Indiana Fanner:
What is the matter with my neighbor's
horses, one a yearling past, the others
four-year-old past? About 10 days ago
they both got lame, the colt in the fore and
the other in the hind foot. At first there
was no swelling visible. After three or
four days lameness they commenced swelling at the pastern joint, and soon after | in lt,
cracks could be seen at the quajters. At
present the hoof of the colt Is quite loose
and will soon tome off, I think. The other
ls very lame, but not so bad as the colt.
They were both In good condition. There
is considerable fever near the hoof, but
does not extend far up the leg. There Is
no grease oozing from the cracks.
What shall I do for my mart? From six
weeks to two months before foaling, her
bag commences to swell, with more or less
fever, and continues till foaling and prevents the secretion ol milk. She has bad
two colts. When the first was ioaled she
had no milk at all. A lew days after the
last was foaled she commenced to rive a
Uttle milk, and Improved from that time
on and raised her colt. She will have a
colt in nine or ten weeks. What can I do
to prevent the swelling and fever.
Subsciubeb.
Your neighbor's celt has been foundered,
and If hoofs come off is not worth a
nickel; If theyonly part from the corronary,
keep the old hoof cut down from Interfering with the growth ot the new hoofs.
The other I suppose ls also founderd, and
If her soles break down, she Is almost
worthless, except for breeding.
Feed your mare the powders so often
recommended in the FaiBMKB.   ■
