L . From the SortJiern Cultivator.
I Hog Hiiising in the South.
i, Mkssjm. Editors:?The demand for bacon,
$j and the high prices pai<J for this universal ar.,
J tioleof slave-food, has caused almost a mania
T in bog raising throughout the South. The
rf Berkshire mania was nothing compared to the
L rage which now invests the cotton-lords, as
to the introduction and possession of the best
and most profitable breeds of swine., WhethIer
this introduction of fine stock will be al.
lowed to degenerate and "run ouC' for the
want of care and attention in breeding and
* feeding, remains to be seen. There is no
doubt but that any race of swine, founded by
the proper principles of breeding, con be kept
op to the mark by the application of the same
fopd and generic infusion of blood, which produced
the originals; and the difficulty with
the Berkshire was, that these things were
wholly neglected, and they were reduced to
"abort commons" in their new localities.?
f Tnose which were well fed, were staffed with
- raw corn, and the consequence was, that they
% rabidly took on fat at the expense of bone and
ipuscle. This caused as rapid degeneration as
ywas effected on those which were turned into
the woods to root for grub worm*, and hunt
phytic, in muthroomt. We venture to say,
that if any of the now popular breeds are subL
jected to the same treatment, the new experiment
in bog raising will be the tame; and unthrifty
stock resulting from improper systems
W of rearing will be laid at the door bf charged
f swindles upon the breeders furnishing the parent
swine.
The selection of breeding swine is an import
ant matter? for there is no animal which $o
readily transmits defects to its progeny as the
bog. If the parent is deformed, so will be
many of the offspring. If thrifty and productive,
so we may readily rely will be the characteristics
of most which spring from them.
Not one half of a litter of pigs, however, are
fit to be left for breeders; but when the def
inand is great for A improved breed, every
thing must be let run, and the reputation of
r their parents suffers from this indiscriminate
system of rapidfyincreasingthe kind. In buying
stock hogs, purchase from no one who is
not entirely reliable, anil such will be sure to
make you pay a fair price, which is the best
method of teaching beginner*, how to take
care of them. Wait 'fill you can purchase
good slock, and waste no time on indifferent,
thriftless breeds. The best system of rapidly
improving swine, is to resort to a boarcf some
good breed until your sows, of the same breed
are old enough to bear pig*. Eighteen
months old is as early as a sow should be put
to breeding to ensure strong healthy progeny.
All of the small-boned varieties furnish good
crosses for the common stock of the country,
and by proper treatment pigs can be brought
f forward for slaughter, to repay better at
twelve or fifteen months old than at a greater
age. In order to do this we must not gorge
them eternally with corn, but we must make
proper preparations for their support, and give
.1 nmnfiirtnhl.? jiponmmodations. Let our
IlR'lll VWi??v?*?.w.v ?
Georgia reader go to Atlanta and see the pigstye
of our friend, Mr. Richard Peters, and
talk with him about food for hogs. There
they w 'H see Suffolk sows producing ten pigs
at a litter, fed on but little corn, and reduced,
by system, to a thrifty condition for breediny.?
This may cause them to grow pork profitably
and cheaply too, if they follow his advice.?
We can have a thousand aids in this branch
of domestic production, by asking the simple
question, "What is it that a hog will not eat f'
Try him on every thing in your reach, and answer
the question yourself.
I have raised some pigs worth killing, and
have a few now I intend to slaughter, at one
k. year old. They are the crosses from a careful
and successful system of breeding which,
within four years, has been carried on to such
results that I can scarcely keep my pigs, they
are in such demand, being wanted as breeders.
I d<> not believe, however, that those who have
L
procured them from me have kept them up to
the standard of my own stock, fur I hear many
complaints?the boar of one "having strayed
ofT," he became a runt?the sow of another is
down with the "kidney worm" and so on. As
I purchased two thousand bushels of corn during
the past season to feed my mules, at the .
high prices paid, it is not reasonable to suppose
I could feed much grain to my pigs. I i
. rely chiefly on grazing and soiling my hogs, i
to keep them in growing condition. A pas- i
ture of earl v oats cave them a good start in I
the spring, and I used barley, cut green, and i
at all stages, until it was harvested, with great
advantage. Boiled barley is an unequaled
food for fattening. Dourra corn is the best <
soiling food I have tried. I cannot say too
rpuch in its praise for this use. Young hogs J
will grow rapidly on this food alone. Four
acres, if highly manured, will furnish, with
good seasons, sufficient green food for one
hundred head of hogs for four months?and
then six acres, allowed to mature, will fatten
them for slaughter in the fall. Egyptian Mil- .
let (Sorghum) is capital feed for an occasional
change with Dourra corn, but does not furnish [
them with the rich satharine matter afforded
by the latter. I also feed turnips, sweet potatoes.
&c., boiled with wheat bran, and never
feed corn unless it is soaked, boiled, or
ground, and made into swill with kitchen wash ,
or with an admixture ol salt. Fruit of all j
kinds is valuable food, and at Poraaria we see
annnally a herd of one hundred bogs, luxuriating
on fine peaches and apples, and as a city
gentleman once remarked "tooproud to eat com- .
mon windfall" I also feed weeds and grass- [
es, the cuttings of the gardeu, and make it a <
point to let the pigs have a run over every
thing which is refused by other stock. With
such attention, I can raise one year olds to
uroirrh 9J>rt t,i Sfift nounds. when well fattened.
" "-'O" ? I
Whilst speaking of fruit", in connection {
with hog raising, allow me to put in a plea for '
the earliest and latest of our forest fruits, as
useful articles of food. I refer to the everbearing
Mulberry and Persimmon. The everbearing
Red-English Mulberry is noted for <
bountiful crops from April to August, and an <
instance-has comat? ny knowledge, during '
the past season, where a single tree of moder- ,
ate size furnished food sufficient to feed half a
doxen fine pigs without other aid. There are 1
many valuable varieties of this fruit, and oth- j
ers might be originated if attention were paid
to its culture. The best and most productive
variety I have ever seen grows in the Old
Ilerbemont Garden, now occupied by Capt.
LyonF, of Columbia, S. C. The Persimmon
is still more valuable, as its fruitcomesin when
the frost has killed all succulent vegetation,
and then it is particularly relished by young
swine. It should be a great favorite with farmers,
as it is the only forest tree which does *
not seriously Interfere by its shade with the ^
cultivated crops. Its long tap roots penetrating
to such a depth that they do not obstruct
tillage; and the droppings of animals beneath
the trees soon enrich the soil to such an extent,
that on small grain crops the effects of
shade is scarcely perceptible, whilst to tilled f
crops it does but little damage. "1 tie larm or
Hon. Perry E.Duncan; of "Paris Mountain," i
Greenville, S. C., is an example of what can
be done with this tree, as his fields are dotted over
with flourishing bearing clumps, and their 1
fruit eagerly relished by most domestic animals.
A valued friend, in Cherokee count}', recently
told me of acres of the Scuppernong in i
Columbia county, furnishing in their season, 1
whole cart-loads of Grapes. Why could we
not grow Mulberry and Persimmon groves,
and have some of those Scuppernong vines i
clustering over their tops? so as to give our ;
pigs another dessert of fruit in August and ;
September, and also make cool bowers for
them "to rest in the shade/' and enjoy that
aristocratic and gentlemanly siesta which the
decently bred pig so delights in. We fancy,
Messrs. Editors, that we see some of the
"rooter" tribe turning vp their noses at these
unheard-of suggestions?but we cannot help it; |
for to-day we have dined on the tender roast
ham of a sizable half-bred Suffolk pig, which, i
for delicacy of pork and freedom from pinguidity,
so charmed us, that we would be
tempted to recommend the feeding cf treacle
to pigs, if we thought (as a friendjof ours does
who manures bis water-melons with sugar,)
that it would make their flesh sweeter.
A. G. SUMMER.
Ravenscroft, S. C. Nov. 1852.
How to make Bacon Plenty.?The present
high prices of meat should cause the Planters
of the South to reflect, and see if they cannot
devise some plan to remedy the evil. I know a
planter whose cotton crop amounted to *3000,
and he pays this year from five to six hundred
dollars for meat; and I have no doubt that thousands
of others do the same in proportion to the
amount of their crops. Now, geutlcmen, I propose
the following remedy:
In the first place every planter should raise a
sufficient quantity of corn, and never be under
- the necessity of buying; then, if possible, enclose
enough land to keep his hogs in, and not
permit them to run at large, to become wild or
be killed up by his neighbors negroes. In the
next place, make a boiler as follows: get two
planks, each ten feet long, two and a half feet
wide, and two inches thick : then inako the bottom
and ends of sheet iron, by nailing it on tl^
planks : set this boiler on rows of bricks, about
one foot high from the ground, with a chimney
for a flue. This boiler can be heated with a very
small quantity of wood. Into this boiler put
your corn, cotton seed, pumpkins, peas, cabbage
leaves, turnips, potatoes, kitchen slop, and every
; thing that a hog will eat, and boil thorn together,
every day, occasionally throwing in a little
salt and ashes, and have several troughs close by
, the boiler, and feed your hogs every night with
, this food?and my word for it, we shall soon be
exporters, instead of importers, of bacon and
pork.
The same quantity of food given to hogs
I cooked as above will raise and keep fat three
times as many as when given to them in the ordinary
raw state. All this can be done by a boy
ten years old, who by attending to your hogs in
this way, will make you more money than two
of your l>est field hands can in the cotton field.
Try this for two years, and if you do not succeed,
come to me and I will pay all your losses incurred
in the experiment
I have also a plan for feeding work-horses,
which I consider much better and more economi
cal than the usual method, and bv which they
will do more work, and keep in better order,
during the plowing season?which plan, if I
thought it would interest the reader, I would
give in another communication.
G. P. M.
Experiment in Corn Plantino.?Last
spring I run off three parcels of ground containing
precisely the same amount of land ?ach,
and planted the first 3 feet each way, and left,
one stalk to the hill; the second 4 feet each
way, two stalks, and the thiid, 4 by 2, one stilk,
It was all cultivated alike.
A few days since, I had this corn gathered,
and carefully measured, the result which fas
confirmed me in an opinion which I have loig
entertained, namely: that on any valley or inlands
there can be more corn made by plantirg
it 3 feet each way, one stalk to the hill, thai
by any other mode. That planted 3 feet eadi
way made 66 1-2 bushels per acre and tie
other two 62 1-2. In a 40 acre field, the dff<rence
in favor of 3 feet corn would be abcnt
30 bbls., enough to feed 3 mules 12 months.

giving tone and strength to the Stomach, which makes it
an Infallible remedy for those afflicted with Dyspepsia, the

THE TAPE WORM!
This is the most difficult Worm to destroy of all that infest
the human system, it grows to an almost Indefinite
length becoming so coiled and fastened in the Intestines
and Stomach effecting the health so sadly as to cause St.
Vitus l/ance, Fits, <fcc..that those afflicted seldom if ever j
suspect that it is Tape Worm hastening them to an early

treatment must be pursued, it would therefore Ire proper .
to take 6 to 8 of my Liver Pills so as to remove all obstructions,
that the Worm Syrup may act direct upon the Worm,
which must be taken in doses of 2 Tablespoonfulls 3 times ]

Coiisuniption Cored Dally
By DR. HASTIKO's
Compound tyrump of Naptha.
THE Medical Faculty, as well as the public, are struck
with wonder at the numerous cures made bythisextraordinary
medicine, and it is acknowledged by many of
our most eminent physicians to be a certain and speedy
cure for tubucular consumption, in its worst stages, it
has been recommended by that eminent physician, Dr
Mott, and is constantly used in the Marine Hospital, at
Savanah, (?a., by Dr. Arnold, tha senior physician of that
hospital. The London Lancet, London Medical Journal,
Hraithwaite's Retrospect, and all others of the London
Medical Journals, have spoken in praise many times of th
surprising effects of ,
DR. HASTING'S PREPARATION.
It has been thoroughly tried, not only in the Hospita
underthe charge of Dr. Hastings in London, but also by
all the first physicians of England, and all have fully endorsed
it as an unrivalled remedy in Consumption, and all
otherdiseasesof the lunge. Tho following are a few of
the opinions expressed by the Medical Faculty of England.
DrW illiams. r.f Mancliester. thus writes:
" Under its influence I have seen the emaciated befngl
on whose brow death hadseemed to have set hil seal, acquiring
vjgoration and strength, and exchange bis early
mornings of suffering and distressing cough for the sound
repose which alone accompanies sound health."
Dr. Ware, of Liverpool, says:
"I regard Hasttng's Syrup of Naptha as one of the first
medical discoveries ofany age.and consider its agency in
curing consumption as established beyond all doubt ro
question."
"Dr. Boyd of Lancaster, "Hails itasthe great consumption
antidote and cure," and Dr. Hamilton, of Bath, pronounces
it "the only known remedy which may be relied
on for moving tubercles from the lungs, and preventing tha
formation of others."
A single cxmie win prove lis cuicncy: ah isspnipnennr
n*k* fs the trial of one bottle, the action of which wilt
ptove to the patient the virtue of this medciine.
Coughs, colds, bronchitis, decline, asthma, ni|rhttweatt,
and spitting of blood, are cured in a surprisingly ehort time;
the severest colds having yielded to the treatment of the
Naphtha Syrup in the short space ?f forty-eight hours.
James Western, of Pontiac, Michigan, was attacked with
spitting of blood, and could obtain no relief till he tried
HA STING'S NAPHTHA.
Which stopped it in half an haur. To enumerate all the
cures performed by this medicine would occupy a column
but for want of space, we must forbear, and say that one
trial vill be more satisfactory, and prove iu efficacy beyond
a doubt.
Price SI per bottle, or six bottles for $5.
