The following from an exchange shows that ashes are highly valued by some swine growers. A certain farmer and his neighbor to whom the secret had been communicated, bad been f*arj successful in keeping tbeir herd of swine healthy and thrifty, while those of their neighbors were dying. The'ssoret of their. succes^was doe to the free use of ashes on tbeT feeding pieces. When corn feeding eomlienced these farmers wottM baat?d load of ashes and scatter over the feeding place, repeating from time ft*' time daring the fattening period.. Oca! ashes was fonnd to answer as well as wood ashes when the cobs accamnlatiog aboat the feed lot were piled together fce^neotly aod turned, allowing the ashes to mix with the coal ashes.

Th Milled Dakota, correspondent of the Pidrifo' Press telegraphs: The prairie jires^ Tuesday night destroyed about forty houses, many barns, a large numder of horses and settle, and left about forty animals destitute in the South part of this' county.

"Ran 'round" the entire crop with two furrows. Then ritaro and'give two more furrows, and so on antil. the middies are entirely plowed out. A good , rale in deciding what plow to use, ia lc use the one that does most satisfactory work at the time, and that wiii re^ftiire the fewest nutnber of furrovftST to the row. Ia soft, mellow ground, free from much trash and old stubble, in which a sweep or heel-scrape, or cultivator, will' do good work, it should be employed. A doable shovel, ia the absence of a cultivator, will often do excellent and rapid work where a sweep would fail. By deferring the first plowing as late as 'may be done with safety, the interval between the first and second workings will be shortpned. Not more than two weeks should intervene between these ssveral pIowiDgs. PROMPTNESS. First a cold, then a cough, then consumption, then death.
