TIIE PIG IN AGRICULTURE.
The pig has recently been spoken of in
contempt « hen comp il ed with other domes
ticated animals. But. if we examine bis good
qualities at all critically, we must award him
a high place in our agriculture. He is foun •
to yield a pound of produce from less food
than either cattle or sheep, and is, therefore,
the most economical machine to manufacture
our corn crop into marketable meat. Our
people are becoming wiser every year, and
exporting le-s proportionately of the raw
material, and more of condensed product. If
it takes seven pounds of com on an average
to make a pound of pork, as it is no doubt the
case, the farmer liegins to see the great econ
omy of expnrt'iig one pound of pork, bacon
or ham, instead of seven pounds of corn.
The difference in cost of freight, makes a line
profit, of itself; besides, the pound of meat is
usually worth more than seven pounds of
corn in the foreign market. The production
of pork should be encouraged on the further
consideration that it carries off less of the
valuable constituents of the soil than lieef.
The fat pig contains only three-fourths as
much mineral matter per hundred weight, as
the steer, and only two-fifths as much nitro
gen ]ier hundred weight; and therefore the
production of a ton of pork on the farm will
carry off only a iittle more than half tho fer
tility carried off by a ton of beef; besides, a
toil of In ef will requ're nearly fifty per cent
um more to produce it. This gives in round
numbers the comparative effect of producing
pork and beef. It is thus evident that the
jiig should he fostered in every way, his
capabilities studied and pushed, his diseases
carefully noted and prevented, for he is the
most profitable meat-producing animal on the
farm. The pig is an excellent adjunct to the
dairy, turning all the refuse milk anil whey
into cash. As he is king of our moat exports,
so let us treat him with great consideration.
TOO MUCH COTTON.
The Anderson Journal says: The cotton
crop last year was a very- large one, but de
spite this the prices have kept up well, and
now it is to lie feared that our planters and
farmers, stimulated by these prices, will
plant an overwhelming crop, and again bring
disaster upon themselves and the country.
Already large quantities of guano are I wing
purchased, mules are in good demand and
extravagant ideas are taking strong hold
upon our people. This is to he regretted, for
no greater calamity could befall this country
than an enormous crop of cotton to be sold at
7 and 8 cents. 1 )ebt and'poverty would again
stare us in the face, and the bright outlook
of to-day would soon Is; change I to a dark
and unfortunate reality. We sincerely trust
that our planting friends will not lie led away
by the allurements of the high prices and
overstock our markets. Rather let them
plant all kinds of grain—everything that can
lw raised at. home let them raise—and no
longer will the black clouds of despair and
doubt remain with them, but only a happy
and bright future will be lieforo them.
HONORABLE SERVICE.
The Emperor of China turns a furrow
every year in honor of agriculture. To those
who think it beneath their dignity to “labor
with their hands,” we would refer to the fol
lowing workers, by the side of whom their
names sink into insignificance: Aikenside. the
butcher; Marshall Ney, the son of a cooper;
Roger Sherman, Allen Cunningham, and
Gifford, shoe-makers: Sir William Hersehel,
lifer-liov; Franklin, printer's devil; Fergu
son, shepherd: Ben. Johnson, brick-layer;
Gen. Green, blacksmith; Gen. Morgan, wag
oner; Frazer, a stone-cutter; Bloomfield, a
farmer: and Burns, a plow-boy.
FALLING BACK.
The farmers in Southwest Georgia must
lie falling back into their old ways, which
means heavy debts and final failure. The
Albany News says tnat,4Le importations of
Western com and oats are already quite
heavy, lieing alsjut one hundred to one us
compared with last year. The farmer can
afford to buy most of his meat and all of his
flour, with cotton at ten cents, but. his stock
feed (com and oats) should be made on the
farm, if it be desirable to make farming
profitable.
BEAUTIFY YOUR FARM.
Every man owes it. to the community in
which he is living to contribute to the general
refutation and public enjoyment, by making
his surroundings as attractive ns possible, A
measure of time and expense should be de
vot'd by every one to the making of bis farm
and his home more beautiful year by year.
Many farms in Dixie could lie improved in
appearance by a few days’ extra work each
year. Our country towns are improving
rapidly, and while the improvement fever is
on, it should extend into the rural districts.
It speaks lonil for a people where there are
respectable-looking farm buildings dotting
the valleys, with everything about them
neat and commodiotisly arranged. Look
around and see if there isn’t something you
can do that will help the looks of your prop
erty.
LUCERNE.
It is a great oversight of our farmers not
to grow lucerne more abundantly. Asa feed
for stock both in green state and when made
into hay it is superior to anything we know.
Then it requires but one planting if properly
useil. It does not answer to sow lucerne
with small grain. At the start the plant is
delicate, and gives way liefore rivals in the
soil. After the first year it holds its own
ng.'iinst all adversaries, even Bermuda grass.
The liest fertilizer for lucerne is well rotted
stable manure in which grass seeds have lieen
killed. It can be sown this month—Febru
ary—in land well plowed and harrowed.
Sow broadcast, ten pounds to the acre. Peas,
clover, and lucerne require great attention
in curing, to prevent loss of the leaves. In
cutting hay of all kinds, it is best not to lie-
gin until the dew is off in the morning, as the
dew causes delay in curing. As soon as cut
the hay should be raked into wind-rows, and
that which Ls cut in the morning should lie
put into small cocks in the afternoon of the
same (lay. That which is cut in the afternoon
should lie raked into wind-rows liefore night,
and cocked up the next morning after the
dew is olf. Twenty-four hours is usually suf
ficient for the hay to remain in the field.
The great point is, that the grass should be
cured as much as possible in tho shade. To
effect this, the cocks should lie as sina'l as
possihle at the lwi.se, so as to allow free pas
sage for tiir. The lucerne on this farm, cured
in this way last spring, is of a bright green
color, and has lost but few of its leaves.
TURNIPS AS A FEED FOR STOCK.
No diversion from usual farm practice, if
well conducted, can lie more profitable than
folding sheep ufwin turnips, especially where
the soil is inclined to lie sandy. The flat
Dutch turnip is injured by severe frosts. The
globe varieties are not injured by it, but as
they must be sown early, they become pitliy
lieforo putting up their seed stems. I have
seen fine turnips near Savannah which were
sown in November. This is a great advantage
in st(K'k raising, including horses, cattle,
sheep, and hogs. A perk of turnips cut daily
to horses during the winter is of much use to
them. Hogs folded upon turnips during the

CEMENT FOR SEALING BOTTLES, ETC.
Mix :! parts of resin. 1 part of caustic soda>
and 5 parts of water. This is then to be
mixed with half its weight of plaster of Par is.
The compound sets in three quarters of an
hour, adheres strongly, is not jiermeable like
plaster alone, and is affected but slightly by
warm water.
•No preparation to put upon the meat vyill
prevent the bacon bug which produces skip-
pers from laying its eggs in the meat, and
covering with canv s is troublesome. The
best hams are those which hang in the smoke
house just ns they are cured till wanted for
the table. They must have air, and therefore
to wrap them up in cloth and paint it works
injury to the qu lity and flavor of the meat.
The right plan Is to keep the bugs from the
meat, not the meat from the bugs. Knowing
the habits of the insect enables us to do this
pretty effectually, ns it hybeiTiates in the soil
of the smoke-house floor in winter, comes out
a full-grown bug in March and April, lays its
eggs in the bacon, which hatch tho skippers
that we find in summer and fall, and then
goes out and dies. Better remove the dirt of
the floors and replenish with fresh soil and
lime liefore spring work liegins to push and
tho bug awakes from its winter sleep.
