AGRICULTURAL TOPICS OP INTEREST RELATIVE TO FARM AND GARDEN. Cleaning Pig Stya. In an admonitory article the Stochn/m declares there is no excuse or decency in having and a be filthy pig sty—-that it should can as clean and neat as the abode of any other farm animal, and when found otherwise there must be editor something wrong with the farmer. The says that he has seen a pig sty so scrupulously neat and clean that a per son could go into it and lie down, with and out injury to his clothes or discomfort, others that were an abomination to olfactories when several rods away, let alone coming near enough to seethe filth. This is certainly poor policy—poor for the hog eater. The [‘car to Plant. The pear is perhaps the most useful of all fruifs to the one who lias hut a small garden, who as well as a valuable one to him has his acres of trees. It takes but little room, bears early,and in succession from July until November, and it is a fruit that most persons like. While there are sorts which ripen in July, hut few persons plant them, as raspberries and blackberries are in season then, and varieties to be ripe to eat in early There"are August are considered early enough. sorts better peculiar inlthcm to ccrtaiu localities, doing than any others, and but little known elsewhere. The Jones, for instance, so justly valued in West Phila delphia and here by those who have grown it, is unknown in some parts of New York, an order recently sent to a firm : n that Btnte bringing back the re ply tl at it was the first inquiry they had ever received for the pear. A Philadel phian, well acquainted with the subject, says it the popularity of kinds can be about judged of follows, by wlmt are planted it rui.s as for they are bought in about the order named: Bartlett, Seckel, Sheldon, Howell,Clapps,Anjon, Flemish, lioussock, Lucrative, Lawrence, Kieffer and Superfine. After these there is not much choice, sorts being ordered to come in between others without regard to what t hoy are.

The author of “Among the Arabs” describes one of their tricks, which, according to his account, only an expert is likely to detect. The story was told to the author of a Frenchman who had traveled for Home time in Algiers.

After a proper amount of deliberation and bargaining he selected the one which appeared to he the leanest and paid the price agreed upon. The next morning when he went to look at his fat camel he found a living skeleton, on whose almost lifeless bones the flesh hung in large folds, and whose best development was about the joints. The method by which the camels are suddenly thus described: “fattened” for the market is An incision about an inch in length is made in each car between the skin and the flesh, into this a small tube is fitted and secured by a silk cord.
