• for Meat.
The Southern Cultivator is of opiniou
1 hat the hog should l>e regarded and treated
ns an animal machine for the conversion of
cheap vegetable matter into more valuable
pork —converting b Iky and unsalable pro
ducts Into compact and readily marketable
nubstanoee. A borne market is thus secured
for < rops and much waste matter ou the
farm. Instead of desiring that these lira
chines may couaume os little raw material
as possible, tbe more they consume the bet
ter, provided it is profitably converted into
meat.. By arranging a number of lots,
adapted in size to the number of swine to
be kept, so that they will each open upon a
Bermuda pasture front which swine may
be turned at will into any of the crops, and
to w hich they may be withdrawn to pre
vent injury to the land in vet spells, a suc
cession Of crops may be grown, especially
for their consumption, as follows: 1. Rye
to be grazed in winter, allowed to seed,
gleaned and followed by A
mixture of corn, peas, sweet potatoes and
decorticated cotton seed fed during the lat
ter part of winter and spring with oollard
leaves to add to the variety. 2. Oats to he
gathered by hogs and followed by speckled
jieas. 3. Early planted speckled peas to be
gathered by hogs and followed by fall oats
or rye. 4. Early crop of sweet potatoes to
be followed by rye. 5. Ground peas between
torn rows, both to be gathered by hogs or
the corn harvested for use later. 6. Speck
led peas between rows of sorghum. 7. Cha
ins for late winter use—for stock hogs after
finishing up those to be butchered. None of
t hese crops are costly—the hogs do the har
vesting and, together w'itta the usual small
grain fields and pea fields, will produce pork
as cheaply as it can be grown anywhere.
There is always a homo market lor South
ern smokehouse curod bacon at prices above
West ern meat of the same class. It w'ould
not necessarily exclude cotton from the
farm, nor indeed should it do so, but it
would reduce the area and increase the per
acreage production. Under proper man-
Hgeraant the pork can lie sold at twice the
cost of production, while cotton often brings
less than it costs to produeo it. "Without
intelligent personal supervision neither this
nor any other agricultural enterprise will
succeed. _
Ancient and Modern Stock Breeders.’'
The New’ Orleaus Picayune- gives the fol
lowing interesting figures: Job, in ancient
times had 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen,
500 she asses and 700 sheep; and chiefly on
account of his wealth in live stock was con
sidered ‘ ‘greatest of all the men in the East
Taylor "White, in southeastern Texas, be
tween the Sabine and Trinity rivers, had
10,000 head of cattle over thirty years ago.
We believe several others had stock in Texas
ns large or larger at that date. We think
Col. Einnev, in southwestern Texas, had a
much larger stock on the Nueces and west
Now stocks belonging to individuals and
syndicates in Texas and north off loat State,
are reckoned by fifty and hundreds of thou
i-ands. Some of the Attakapas (Ea.) stock
breeders owned immense herds of cattle
75 years ago. Darby, in his description of
louisiana. written in 1817, estimated the
stocks of the Wikoff family in the Calca
sieu prairie, Fontenot's in Prairie Mamose,
and that of Andrus in the Opelousas prairie,
at 30,000 head. Long after Darby’s day the
Dupre and Wikoff families, and the widow
Guidry, owned over 30,000 head of cattle
and 6,000 horses. Job would have been
reckoned as a third rate stock raiser in St.
Landry parish.
Texas, in 1880, had 3,023,658 head of horses,
mules and cattle, and 4,362.004 head of sheep
nnd swine. The United States had, in 1880,
wer 48,000,000 horses, mules and cattle, and
about 88,000,000 sheep and swine. Abra
ham, Isaac, Jacob and Job probably never
ireamed of stock raising on the immense
-calc that now exists in the United States.
Going on down through Mexico, Central
America and South America, immense
herds of cattle are found, in some places so
plentiful and cheap that they are only raised
for their hides and tallow. All goes to show
t hat North and South America are better
adapted to stock raising than any other part
of the world, not excepting New Holland,
liy abandoning the barbarous system of
raising cattle, so extensively adopted in
North and South America, and adopting a
more humane system, feeding and shelter
ing .stock in winter, and feeding abun
dantly, the Western could supply the world
with beef, milk, butter, cheese, hides and
horses to the end of time.
What An Acre Will Produce,
lion. C. F. A. Bulby, of DeLand, writes
as follows to the Florida Agriculturist:
1 wont to give you an illustration of what
can be done with one acre of pine land.
In just one year I have placed on the acre
six one-horse loads barnyard manure, 1,300
pounds cotton-seed meal, two barrels ashes
; hard wood), two barrels hen manure, six
barrels Mopes fertilizer. The cotton-seed
meal cost, sls, the Mapes fertilizer cost ?27 —
total $42. The most of the fertilizer was
feme-made.
There is on the acre 100 orange trees two
pears old. These have grown beautifully
arid are as handsome looking trees to-day as
‘rd be found in the State of Florida. All
'lie vegetables of every description for a
large family, including over 100 quarts of
straw berries, continuously from October of
l ist year to this time, not to mention the
large quantity given away and left to rot
on the ground. Owing to my absence in
Tallahassee iu April and May fully 200 cab
bages rotted. During the year there was
sold from the acre about S6O worth of vege
tables to the grocers iu town, and there is
now in fino condition a patch of cassava
which we value very highly) sufficient to
lst my family all winter. In June I cut
■ rab grass to mulch the 100 trees. And, to
• ap the climax, I ha\ e just now taken from
the acre fully one and one-half ton of as
line bright hay as I ever saw harvested in
the State of New York.
And all this without special care or atten
tion, for 1 am not a market gardeneras you
""oil know, and have no time to devote s-po
einlly to this branch.
Firming the Soil
Ihe Florida Agriculturist touches upon
:l point important, to gardeners in the fol
ding: Recently wo noticed ft person plant
r’g seed for lfis fall garden, and in covering
' iidm be simply raked the dirt over the drill
and left it. We asked him why ho <lid not
1 fin the soil over the seed. His reply was:
" by, if J tramp on the rows the seal are
"null they would never come up tluougb
'he packed earth.” Right there was his
mistake, and the same is made by others
every seed planting time. They wonder
why the seed do not come up and are in
clined to blame the seedsman, but the fault
lies in their not properly firming the soil
over the seed when plsnted. When seed of
any kind are put in the ground they always
come up quicker if tbe soil is rolled or
pressed, except, of course, where followed
directly by soaking rains or irrigation.
Those who have not a rollor can use their
feet for firming tho soil by walking along
the row, placing one foot before the other.
This may look liko a waste of time, but the
man who would not tramp on the drill is
still looking for his seed to come up while
his neighbor's seed planted at the same time
is growing finely. W hen the soil is loosely
put back over the seal it soon dries out and
hence no moisture is there to start the germ
growing, and even if started it is “cooked”
before it comes to the surface and is then
lost. There are Very few seeds that will
not find their way through our soil, if
relied, and tho advantage of having the
soil pressed firmly about the seed, can best,
be realized by planting two rows of seed
and tramping the soil over one while it is
left loose over the other.
Warts on Horses.
H. M. C., of Haynesville, Ain., gives to
the Southern, Cultivator this practical ex
perience with warts on horses, mules and
cattle: In the September issue of tho Culti
vator, in tho “Inquiry Department,” l no
tice query from IC. E. I)., of Knoxville, Ga.,
relative to worts on his mule. Your remedy,
as far as the application of hog’s iard goes,
is all right. However, in my opiuion, based
on experience, the cording and cauterizing
is not only unnecessary, but really a disad
vantage, from the fact that either cording
or cauterizing creates a sore, which should
under all circumstances be guarded against.
A pure article of hog’s lard, properly ap
plied (well rubbed in), is a most excellent
remedy and will invariably effect a cure the
first application. In all of my experience,
which is quite varied with hoises, mules and
cattle, I have never known a wart to with
stand the second application. They gene
rally’ commence sloughing off after the first
application, and to all appearances without
the slightest pain.
Diseases of Fowls.
The St. Louis Journal of Agriculture
gives the following remedies for tbe more
common diseases of fowls:
For swelled eyes bathe the bead with a
warm solution made by dissolving a tea
spoonful of powdered boraeic acid in a pint
of water, and then anoint with.a few drops
of glycerine. Repeat this daily.
For roup dissolve n teaspoonful of chlo
ride of lime in a pint of water aud give the
bird a teaspoonful of the solution. Burn
tar and turpentine in tho poultry-house
after the fowls have gone on the roost at
night.
For soft-shell eggs put the hens at work
scratching, as it indicates that they are too
fat. Soft eggs, apoplexy, egg-bound, and
nearly all such diseases are due to the hens
being too fat.
For indigestion give the birds plenty of
sharp gravel, and also a teaspoonful of
fenugreek in the soft food for every ten
hens.
For lice dost Persian insect powder freely
in every crack aud crevice and on the bodies
of the hens among the feathers.
To procure eggs avoid overfeeding and
feat meat and milk with plenty of grain at
night, omitting corn.
For bumble-foot make the roosts low and
keep the afflicted fowl confined.
For debility keep the fowl in a warm, dry
place, feed meat and give a piece of ginger
daily.

Farm and Stock Notes.
Tho estimate is usually made that a Leg
horn or Hamburg codk may be mated with
fifteen hens: a Wyandotte,"Plymouth Rock,
Houdan or Langshan with twelve; a Mi
norca with fourteen, and a Brahma or Co
chin with ten.
Bone is one of the best substances that
can tie fat to tho hens. Ground or broken
tlie bone is highly relished. It not only con
tains lime for shells but also nitrogen and
the phosphate*. It should lie kept before
the liens, in boxes, all tho time.
Have all the small sweet potatoes for the
pigs. Nothing will fatten a pig so quickly
as sweet potatoes, and they are very cheap
when only tho culls are used. They should
not be fed to laying hens, but are excellent
for poultry intended for market.
Dr. Salmon says there are two contagious
diseases known as hog cholera—one affect
ing the towels, the other tho lungs. The
one is tbe genuine hog cholera, the other the
swine plague. It is possible for an animal
to have both diseases at the same time.
The estimated yield of sorghum per aere
is 1*25 pounds of sugar and 10 gallons syrup,
according to a Kansas report. Unless tbe
refuse be used for stock in some manner it
is doubtful if there be any profit in such
yield after deducting all expenses of grow
ing the crop and making the sugar and
syrup.
The following preparation applied to the
surface will prevent any rusting on plows
or any other metal surfaces: Melt one ounce
of resin in a gill of linseed oil, and when hot
mix with two quarts ot kerosene oil. This
can be kept on hand and appliod iu a mo
ment with a brush or rag to the metal sur
face of any tool that is not going to be used
for a few days, preventing any rust and
saving much vexation when it is to be used
again. /
The use of commercial fertilizers is in
creasing, and as farmers liecome better ac
quainted with the demands of their soils
and crops they will be able more wisely to
select the fertilizer best suited to their needs.
Neither the farmer nor the chemist alone
ran always toil what brand of fertilizer will
best meet the case. This must be discov
ered by the fiuuner’s making careful tests
under the light given by teachings of the
chemists.
Hmut and mold on com aud eqi-nstalks are
often injurious and, under some circum
stances, absolutely poisonous to stock. They
produce in cat’le a disease called stomach
staggers. Small doses of sulphur are said
to bo helpful to stock thus affected. Smutty
corn should never be put in the crib. It
should be gathered at husking time and
burned. If allowed to go to crib other corn
will be affected, and the disease will increase
the following year.
Fifty cents invested in linseed oil and an
hour's time applying it to your wagon
wheels will save you the expense of having
the tires of your wagon cut or “stoved,
and perhaps a breakdown or trouble of some
kind when yon least expect, it. Put the oil
into a shallow vessel and heat it as hot as
you can. Raise the wagon whoel as when
oiling the spindle and place the vessel under
so that the. rim will pass through the oil.
Pass the rim through the oil slowly three or
four times aud the work will be done. Tbe
hot oil saturates the felloe and prevents it
from becoming water-soaked.
The profits of a small flock of sheep are
usually very large, and probably no invest
ment the fanner can make pays so large a
dividend. It may lie claimed that a profit
of 50 per cent, can be annually made and
exceptional instances are recorded of the
woof and lambs at the end of the year pav
ing the first cost. Sheep are the greatest
success upon cheap lands, as it would be
difficult to have an acre of SIOO land afford
subsistence for sheep enough to make it pay,
an {argument that would anply as well to
other stock, though no other stock pays so
complete a dividend as does a sheep with
her fleoce and lamb.
Popular Science.
The stems and waste of tobacco are said
to be as good as linen rags in the manufac
ture of papier.
In Europe thrifty trees and good crops of
peaches have been secured from grafts on
the hawthorn.
Highly polished brass may be kept abso
lutely bright and free from tarnish by thinly
coating the articles with a varnish of
bleached shellac and alcohol.
The beautiful enameled bricks frequently
used for outside or interior decoration are
made by applying to the surface a colored
flux, which during the burning causes the
sitex to melt and fonn a vitreous covering.
Very pretty effect may lie produced by the
use of these bricks.
One of the cheapest and best modes of de
stroying insects in pot plants is to invert
the pot and dip tbe plants for a few seconds
m water warmed to 130 . A German paper,
referring to this plan, says that the azalea
will stand 130° without injury. Usually
heat, the water pretty well and pour in cool
until 130” is reached.
The Locomotive recently published cuts
made from photographs of sections of boil
ers which had been very badly corroded by
water contaminated by sewage, such as
the lakage of privy vaults, etc. The cor
rosion is of a bad and dangerous character,
and shows that it is necessary to see that
such impure water is not allowed to enter
boilers.
Anew method of extracting sugar from
molasses has recently been proposed by
using w’ood spirits or methylic alochol,
which has the property of completely dis
solving molasses or syrup. Sugar and salts
may be sejiarated as oxalates, while the
organic, acids and nitric, substances remain
in the solution. There is much additional
fire risk in this process, as methylic alcohol
is very inflammable,
The American Machinist gives the fol
lowing as a cure for chapped hands:
“Wash the hands with fine soap, and be
fore removing the soap STiib the hands with
a tablespoonful of Indian meal, rinsing
thoroughly with soft tepid water, using a
little meal each time except the last; wife
the hands )>erfectly dry, then rinse them iu
a very little water containing a teaspoonfui
of pure glycerine, rubbing the hands to
gether until the water has evaporated. Tho
glycerine must ba pure or it will irritate in
stead of healing.”
To make a cheap, simple and efficient but
tery, suitable for the use of experiments
anil amateurs, take an ordinary glass fruit
jar, fitted with a cover of wood or hard rub
ber. and place in it u number of pieces of
electric light carbons, hundreds of which
can be picked up in tbe streets every morn
ing after the lamps have lieen trimmed. The
connection between the carbons and the
binding screw on the.top of tbe cover is best
made with gutta-per'*!la-covered wire, hav
ing its lower end bared and wound t ightly
round and secured to one of the carbons,
thus making a connection with all other
pieces in contact with it. A piece of a!
magnum tod zinc of any connection size nr
form is sns[ienrtcd within the jar from the
wooden cover, and has a binding-screw at
tached to it. The jar should be filled about
two-thirds full with dilute sulphuric acid
or other suitable solution. The whole bat
tery complete can l>o made for 20c. and it
wifi give a good current on a closed circuit
for a longtime.
According to tho stat .went of Mr. Miles,
a well-known engineer, it is a fact peculiar
to Spanish countries that ordinary liack
dust, made from hard-burned, finely pul
verized bricks, and mixed with common
lime and sand, is universally aud success
fully employed as a substitute for hydraulic
cement. Mr. Miles says that during an
engineering experience of some six years in
Ciiba his opportunities were ample "for test
ing its merits, and lie found it in all rcopects
superior u> the tiost Rosen Jale hydraulic
cement for culverts, drains, tanks and
cisterns, and even for roofs. In an experi
ment to test, the strength of this product it
was found tlmt-a block of it kj inch in thick
ness, without sand, aud after an immersion
in water for four months, bore, without
crushing, crumbling or split ting, a pressure
of fifteen pounds per square inch, it is
thought that bv the addition of pulverising
mills to brick vards, to utilize the waste and
broken brick-, a profitable manufacture
hiight bv carried on.

IS NOT FURNISHED
Him a Pine
Nothing completes the furnishing of a
j house so well.
No present you could make yo'tr
family would lie more acceptable or
I give them so much enjoyment and
benefit.
If you had begun paying sio per
month on a Plano two or three years
ago you would now have it paid for.
If yott don't liegln soon old age may
overtake you, and you will go through
life with an unfurnished and choorlca*
home.
Why delay?
Piano* am cheap, very cheap. Never
so good for tho money. Less than one
half their cost formerly
And the terms ore so wonderfully
easy. Only a few Dollars paid monthly
will secure one.
Start in and a w ill lie yours and paid
for before you know it.
We can suit you in quality and prices. Just
one look at our Warerooms w ill sal isfy you ou
that point and that wo lead iu Best Instruments
and Lowest Prler.s. Better Pianos for tho
money arc simply not to be had. Call and w e
will convince you of t his fact.
