There I s M on ey in .F eeding P ig s fo r Dean * M eats. ■ ■- It is ,cheaper to 'produce meat that contains wlarge proportion of lean with the fa t than to fatten a. hog to such a condition as to fit it only for the pro­ duction of lard, and it is a fact th a t feeding fo r lean meat a.greater weight of carcass is secured and a t no more expense then in producing an excess o f fat. Thisis explained by reason of the fact that when an annual is given food containing, the elements o f growth, of bone and muscle ns well os of fat the condition of the animal is sustained in a manned to permit more, perfect diges­ tion and assimilation and a greater pro­ portion for the support of the system of the nutritious elements .that are re­ quired, and which are more evpnly dis­ tributed through the body, instead, of the semi-diseased condition produced when corn Is given as an exclusive diet. Hence the-farmer who diminishes the rationed maize, allowing hu t a portion only, substituting therefor bran, mid­ dlings, m ilk.and clover-out fine and scalded—-will have his hogs largeV,’ heavier, healthier and of better quality of flesh than from corn. While giving the advantages of a systematic method of feeding for the best results in pro­ ducing tha heaviest; pork, the fact th a t prime lard brings a price tha t makes it desirable on the part of the farmer to have his hogs fat, it.mast be admitted that it is a serious obstacle in the way when lean meat ih advocated, hat the lean meat is simply interspersed with the fat, and the greater inercaso from the variety of food does no t diminish the supply of lard, Tho farmer will find that in those portions of thecar- . easS from which the lard is produced but little ‘difference will bo observed, and the hog will be much more valuables as a whole.—Colman’* Rural World, >nVfi'ar,.“i«Wi.i-infTir^XHai- ir*-— AMONG THE POULTRY.

JVhen animal manure is thoroughly rotted aud ' fined' and bare is taken to incorporate tliorougitly with the soli, hot only hotter but more immediate re ­ sults will he secured than if applied iresh,. «A good wpy of applying .animal ma* nitre is by plowing the ground thor­ oughly in good season, ‘and then by ap­ plying broadoast oyer the surface, tak­ ing care to scatter as evenly as possible. Ortlipurily the work of preparing the Soil in-a suitable condition for the seed will work it sufficiently iutp the sur­ face,, Wheat requires a considerable amount of nitrogen, and; as a rule, any fertilizer, that contains a good per cent, of this essential element of plant food can be applied with benefit to wheat, Salt is used to a considerable extent with wheat, but this is not iii itself a fertilizer, but when applied and worked into the soil it has the effect of making available plant food already in it. In almosfcany soil iu which seed will ger­ minate and plants make a start to grow there is always more or less plant food that is latent and which' needs some action in order to become available, and applying salt aids materially in this processand for this reason can in many coses be applied with benefit.—Prairie Farmer. .

FARM TOOL HOUSE. How I t Should lie Arrutu-ecI nnd What I t Should Contain, The leading requisite for a general tool house for the larger farm imple­ ments and machines, is -to'have it open on both sides, so that wagons, reapers, horse-rakesi 'sulky-plows and every­ thing drawn by horses may be driven in on one side for shelter and out again on the other side for use. This will save much labor otherwise required to pack these machines away when driven in on one side only. Sliding or swing­ ing doors may be provided, if required, to exclude wind, rain and snow. If the land ! b level, it will be ne'eofesary to have all the places of entrance and exit on the samn level; bu t witlvu de­ scent or. sloping surface, the entrance may be above for suoh tools as arc used on the higher fields, and the other en­ trance below opening toward the lower fields; But this arrangement will prevent the driving in one side and out on tho other.
