FASH AND HOUSEHOLD.
USEFUL IVFOKMATIOV FOB THK
FARMER AND HOUSEKEEPER.
Shall We Raise Hogs?
A great deal has been said to the
farmers at the South, to induce them
to raise their own supplies. It is gen
erally conceded, by the farmers them
selves, that it is much cheaper to pro
duce at home all food crops necessary
for farm stock, but it is not so gener
ally believed that it will pay to raise
the meat needed by our labor.
Taking circumstances just as they
are, this may possibly be true, says
the Hon. W. J Northen, in ihe South
ern Cultivator; but making circum
stances as they should be, should very
much change the condition of things.
In this, as in every other business,
we would seek the best appliances
and the most convenient and profita
ble arrangements. Let us arrange our
crops, our pastures and our conveni
ences for proper care, and the matter
will be successfully settled.
Our lands and our labor are very
much cheaper than at the West.
With proper preparation and judi
cious cultivation, our crops can be
produced as cheaply and abundantly
as at the West, and the capital neces
sary to bring about the same results
is, therefore, ver3’ much lessened. In
other w’ords, a hog worth in the mar
kets $26, grown upon cheaper lands,
cheaper products and in a more favor
able climate will bring a larger profit
to a Southern farmer than if raised
under the conditions necessary at the
West.
The mistake we make is the expen
sive food given to hogs. It is not de
sirable nor profitable to feed hogs so
exclusively corn, as is generally done
at the South. Much of the expense
will be reduced in good pasture. It
is astonishing to see how thrifty and
vigorous hogs become on good Ber
muda pasture, witli very little other
food. Such pasture can be greatly in
creased by sowing red clover, at the
proper season, with the Bermuda,
and have both grow together. The
land must, of course, be well prepared
before receiving the clover seed. Lu-
cern, a special food for hogs, has been
found admirably adapted to the soil
and climate of the South. These
grasses will not grow to advantage on
worn out, thin land; nor does it ever
pay to expect profitable results in gra
zing the lands usually given to pas
ture at the South. Select good land,
prepare it thoroughly, fertilize as far
as may be possible, and seed to the
grasses already indicated, and the
foundation is laid for profitable hog
raising.
In addition to pasture, crops may
be grown at little expense and yet
bring good profits in furnishing suita
ble change. Beginning in the early
months of the year with r3’e, to be
followed successively with early oats,
early peas, the gleaning from grain
fields, later peas, sweet potatoes and
ground peas, large numbers of hogs
can be grown, and the expense, as
compared to the income, scarcely ap-
^prcciahle. T. . nxisc bog#.g
anu'Tit a profit, we have only to get
ready for it.
The ipain reason, I imagine, why
farmers do not give more attention to
raising hogs is the destruction caused
by contagious diseases. This objec
tion cannot obtain in any more force
with us than at the West. Nebraska
recently suffered a loss of $2,000,000
from swine plague, and Iowa nearly
as much. I know of no section any
more exempt from the ravages of the
disease than the Slates of the South.
No advantage, therefore, can be
claimed over us in this particular.
The meat we buy lias been grown un
der the same chances for loss as that
we raise. After getting pastures and
crops ready we must use the best
means known to prevent losses from
disease. In this connection it may
not be amiss to s.-^ that I have never
lost my hogs from disease, when I
gave them turpentine regularly—one
teaspoonful to each hog once a week.
I shall not undertake to give the rea
son for the remedy^ I state onl3 T the
result.
Possibl3' the best argument for rais
ing our own supplies is found in the
fact that those farmers who live at
home invariabb* have 11101103’, while
those wiio buy what they eat are al
ways financially pressed.
I cannot believe it pa3’s to delay
time and waste food on inferior stock.
We do not want hogs two 3*ears old
before they are ready to be slaughter
ed. Get the best breeds, such as de
velop rapidb’, push them early, give
them good care and constant atten
tion, slaughter at 12 to 14 months,
weighing 200 to 300 pounds, and you
will not regret the trouble of raising
your own meat on the farm.
The Season for Making Manure.
F/om the Southern Planter.
Now is the time for farmers to be
active and vigilant In their efforts to
secure a good suppb’ of those manures
for the use on the next 3'ear’s crops.
The order in which they may be
classed in respect to quantity ma3’ be
stated a follows: Farm\'ard, stable,
hogpen, ashbanks and house slops and
poultry house. If properly* handled,
their merit in respect to fertilizing
properties will be reversed in the
order named. This is Kite id< d as a
mere suggestive note, and we hope
will be accepted as such. The sub
ject is one of such importance that an
attempt to elaborate it would require
more capacity than we claim and
more space than we now commaud.
We may’, however, venture to impress
these few facts:
Manure will compensate a farmer
for all the labor and care he may de
vote to its accumulation. The manure
bank, as has been quaintly said, is the
farmer’s bank, and pays the best
dividends. All manure, as far as pos
sible, should be kept under shelter; as
the piles are added to by the changing
of the stalls and pens, plaster ought to
be used freely to fix the nitrogen
which is generated by fermentation;
dry bedding of straw, leaves or other
available materials in ample quantity
should be supplied to the animals and
removed to the manure pile as soon
as it becomes foul. Composting with
wood mould, scrapings from fence-
corners, or swamp-muck, instead of
simply piling, will increase bulk and
hold all the gasses and juices of the
animal deposits which have valuable
fertilizing properties, and in this pro
cess also piaster should be liberally
used; hen manure especially should
be kept dry, and to insure this, the
hen house ought to have a dry and
hard clay floor—a plank one would be
better—and the droppings shovelled
or swept with a stiff broom into a
corner every’ few day’s and plaster
sprinkled liberally over the pile with
each addition thereto. An ash bed is
a necessity where all ashes on the
premises are to be deposited, as well
as house and kitchen sweepings, bones
and slops, and to furnish sufficient
supply of absorbent material, it will
be well to add a load or two of wood
mould occasionally. A methodical
system in all these respects will aston
ish a farmer as to how much and how
Valuable his manures will be.
About Poultry Raising.
Every hen house should be kept as
warm as possible. You can’t get eggs
when they sell highest unless your
poultry is made comfortable and fed
properly.
There is just as much in knowing
how to feed hens as there is in the
feeding of any other farm stock. This
is the next important item to look af
ter as soon as good houses are pro
vided.
If you should have a gentle old
biddy to get broody the latter part of
this month give her eggs and let her
bring you up a clutch of chicks for
C ' rly broilers.
If you are prepared for it, com
mence the work of hatching this
month. It won’t cost much to build
a warm nursery for early chicks, and
they will always bring a good price
and can be shipped a long ways to
market.
If you need any new blood in your
flock don’t delay buying any longer.
You needn’t get show birds at high
prices if you are not breeding for ex
hibition purposes. In fact most ot
the show birds in the country are fit
for nothing else but show.
Fowls can’t possibly thrive and do
well if they have to stand around in
the mud and filth all day long. They
must have a place to scratch and ex
ercise. The horse stable is a most
excellent place for them to range in
if allowable.
Let your birds have some meat feed
occasionally, as they need it, and
can’t get out doors to get the “early
worm” while the ground is frozen.
Butchers’ scraps and cracklings are
excellent and can generally be pro
cured cheaply.
When eggs are two cents apiece, as
they are now, one naturally gets the
chicken fever. A good hen soon pays
for herself if she can be induced to
get in her work while eggs are scarce.
Planting; of Fruit Trees.
If the acre has been enriched and
ploughed twice deeply, as I have al
ready suggested, little more is neces
sary in planting than to excavate a
hole imgyenuugh tu iecef\e-tlie toots
spread out in their natural positions.
Should no such thorough and general
preparation have been made, or if the
ground is hard, poor and stony, the
owner will find it to bis advantage to
dig a good-sized hole three or four
feet across and two deep, filling in
and around the tree with fine surface
soil. If he can obtain some thorough
ly decomposed compost or manure,
for instance, as the scrapings of a
barn-yard, or rich black soil from an
old pasture, to mix with the earth be
neath and around the roots, the good
effects will be seen speedily, but in no
instance should raw manure from the
stable, or anything that must decay
before becoming plant loed, be
brought in contact with the roots.
Again I repeat my caution against
planting too deeply—one of the com
monest and most fatal errors. Let
the tree be set as deeply as it stood
before removal. If the tree be planted
early* in spring, as it should be, there
will be moisture enough in the soil;
but when planting is delayed until
the ground has become rather dry and
warm, a pail of water poured about
its roots when the hole has been nearly
filled will be beneficial. Now that
the tree is planted, any kind of coarse
manure spread to the depth of two
or three inches on the surface as a
mulch is very useful. Stake at once
to protect against the winds. Do not
make the common mistake of plant
ing too closely. Observe the area
shaded by fully grown trees, and you
will learn the folly of crowding.
Moreover, dense shade about the house
is not desirable. There should be
plenty of space for plenty of air and
sunshine. The fruit from one well
developed tree will often more than
supply a family, for ten or fifteen
bairels of apples is not an unusual
yield. The standard apples should be
thirty feet apart. Pears, the dwarfer
growing cherries, plums, etc., can be
grown in the intervening spaces. In
ordering from the nurseries insist on
straight, shapely and young trees, say
three years from the bud. Many trees
that are sent out are small enough,
but they are old and stunted. Also
require that there should be an abun
dance of fibrous and uumutilated
roots.—E. P. Roe in Harper’s.
Cream as Food ami Medicine.
Persons consumptively inclined,
those with fet ble digestions, aged peo
ple and those inclined to chilliness
and cold extremities, are especially
benefitted by a liberal use of sweet
cream. No other article of food or
medicine will give them results
equally satisfactory, and either as a
food or medicine it is not bad to take.
As an antidote for a tendency to con
sumption, it acts like a charm, and
serves all the purpose intended to be
Served by cod-liver oil with much
greater certainty and effect. Where
sweet cream can be had, cod-liver oil
is never needed. The volatile and
easily appropriated unctuous matter
in cream, besides contributing directly
to warmth and vigor, aids indirectly
by promoting digestion for the same
reason and in the same way that other
aromatic and attenuated oils aid the
digestive function.
Bavarian cream.—One quart
sweet cream, yolks of four eggs, one-
half ounce gelatine nr isin-glass. one
small cup sugar, two teaspoons bitter
almond or vanilla extract. Soak gela
tine for one hour in sufficient cold
water to cover it. Drain and stir into
a pint of the cream made boiling hot.
Beat yolks of eggs and sugar until
smooth, and add boiling mixture by
beating in a little at a time. Haat
until it begins to thicken, but do not
let it boil, remove from fire and flavor
while still hot. Stir in the other
pint of cream whipped in a syllabub
churn to a stiff froth, and beat it into
the custard a spoonful at a time until
it is the consistency of sponge cake
batter. Pour the mixture into a cool
mould and set in the ice to form.
Cbust for meat pies.—One quart
flour, three tablespoons lard, two and
one-half cups milk, one teaspoon soda
wet with hot water and stirred into
the milk, two tablespoons cream of
tartar sifted with the flour, and one
tablespoon salt. Work very lightly
and do not make too stiff.
Foamy saitce.—Whites of 2 eggs,
1 cup of sugar, one cup boiling milk,
juice one lemon.
Beat whites of eggs till foamy, but
not dry; add the sugar and beat well.
Add the milk and lemon juice.
Martyrs to"
Seek relief in vain, until they begin to
use Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Then they’ re
gret the years of suffering they might
have escaped had they tried this remedy
earlier. The trouble was constitutional
not local; and, until Ayer’s Sarsapa
rilla did its effective work as an
Alterative and Blood Purifier, they were
compelled to suffer.
The wife of Samuel Page, 21 Austin
st., Lowell, Mass., was, for a long time,
subject to severe headaches, the result
of stomach and liver disorders. A per
fect cure has been effected by Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla.
Frank Roberts, 727 Washington st.,
Boston, says that he formerly hail ter
rible headaches, and until he took
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, never found any
medicine that would give
Permanent Relief.
“ Every Spring, for years,” writes
Lizzie Vf. DeVeatt, 2f*2 Fifteenth st.,
Brooklyn, N. Y., “ I have had intoler
able headaches. I commenced the use
of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla last March, and
have not had a headache since that
time.”
“ I suffered from headache, indiges
tion, and debility, and was hardly able
to drag mvself about the house.” writes
Mrs. M. M. Lewis, of A st., Lowell,
Mass. “ Ayer’s Sarsaparilla has worked
a marvelous change in my ease. I now
feel strong and well as ever.”
Jonas Garman, Esq., of Lykins, Pa,,
writes: “ For years I have suffered
dreadfully, every Spring, from headache,
caused by impurity of the blood and
bilotisness. It seemed for days and
weeks that my head would split open.
Nothing relieved me till I took Ayer's
Sarsaparilla. This medicine iias cured
me completely.”
When Mrs. Genevra Belanger, of 24
Bridge st., Springfield, Mass., be.gan to
use Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, she had suffered
for some years from a serious affection
of the kidneys. Every Spring, also, site
was afflicted with headache, loss of
appetite, and indigestion. A friend per
suaded her to use Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
which benefited her wonderfully. Her
health is now’ perfect. Martyrs to head
ache should try
