The main expense in this system of feeding is in the fences, which must be strong and close. Aside from this the cost will be less than pen feeding.—Atlanta Journal. before being thus utilized, under no circumstances must they be permitted to produce seed. If no weeds are al lowed to scatter seeds it will be but a few years before the farm is entirely clear of them. It will pay the farmer, however, to keep weeds down by stir- ing the top soil when the weeds are young. Much In Little. Why do chicks die in the shell? Hens too fat. Eggs too old. Inbred stock.

A most decided change in the mat ter of taste has developed among the consumers of bacon. The demand now is almost eutirely for lean meat, not a single strip of lean, but full one-half. To raise hogs which will supply this demand, pen feeding must be done away with almost entirely. The con finement in close quarters induces fat that even the most careful feeding can not overcome profitably. Unlimited pasture feeding is necessary, and if the right breed of hogs is kept bacon can be raised and sold at a profit. It has been found that the rather lazy Berkshire, Poland-China and Jersey breeds cannot be profitably turned into lean bacon, so that breeds that are inclined to roam, like the crossed Yorkshires or the Tamworth. are the best for the purpose. The Tamworth is but little known in this country, and breeders do not take kindly to the plan of giving np tho well-known breeds for this stranger. Attempts are now being made with promise of good resalts, to educate the razor-back of the Sonth to feed for bacon. It must be confessed that this animal has many of the characteristics of a good bacon hog, and if the disposition to eat any thing from an old boot to a ground hog can be bred ont of her, she may yet astonish the advocates of fancy breeds. Four one-acre fields well fenced will supply ample pasture for fifty hogs with the addition of some *oots or corn as a snrmlementerv feed. Is Indeed singular what curious artlrivs enter largely Into the trade of a pee. le like those of the United States. While a few years ago the French were denominated as the “frog-eaters” of Kurope, it Is a fact that the United States now consume for food more than twice as many frogs as did Franco in the palmiest days of her frdg-catiug history. The annual consumption of frog* in this country is put at not less than 1,000,OOOi which have a gross value to the hunters of $30,000, while as served for food they cost the people not less than $150,000. That frogs have iK'eome a very common article of diet can be seen by glancing through the menu cartel of auy first-class res taurant, especially during the fall and winter mouths, when frogs are In their prime. Only the hind legs are utilised for food and the meat upon them Is white, delicate and wholesome. For many years the markets of the country hav«j i»een supplied from tho marshes of Onlifornla, Missouri. New York, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio and Indiana, N'ewYork furnishing the largest quan tity t* auy of the States. The marshes at the ('astern extremity of Lake Erie are tho most prolific In their yield of frogs. In Ohio the Lewis and Grand reservoirs are famous, while the valley of the Kankakee, In Indiana, is the par adise of the frog hunter. As might be supposed, the demand exceeds the suj>- ply and unrestricted hunting of frogs has diminished the stock In all tho marshes that once promised an endless supply. But so profitable has tho fur nishing of tho market with frogs be come that their artificial propagation Is being curricxl on in Canada, in the Trent river basin, in the province of Ontario, where this business has been conducted successfully for several years. The waters are stocked by nat urally matured frogs and no attempt is made to confine them until near the time of shipment, when they are cap tured alive at night by the aid of torch light, and confined in small pens. The frogs do not require to be fed during jonflnement. This farm yields annual ly about 5,000 pounds of dressed frogs’ iegs alhl 7,000 living animals for stock ing other waters and other purposes. There are several varieties that are used for food, of which the bullfrog Is tbe kind most sought. The common, or green, frog and the shad, or leopard, frog are prized next In order. The pickerel frog and marsh frog are not used for food, the meat having a dis agreeable odor. \ . i r - • •»- THE YUCCA OB ADAM’S NEEDLE. oially effective when planted in "ffont of an evergreen hedge, the tBsl CUT-PHICE CARPET SALE.

Sheep should not be tamed to pas ture too early. Gates between the fields are much better than bars. Try one and prove this statement. Keep the houses dry and clean and you will prevent half the sickness among your fowls. A brood aow on a pasture from now till fall will not need much grain to raise a fine litter of pigs. Eggs a month old will hatch if kept in an even temperature and turned* half over every day or two. A little lard rubbed under the wings and on top of mother hen’s head will free the chicks of lice. Corn is not an egg food;it should not be fed exclusively, only in very cold weather, and then as a night feed. Clean ont the nests and burn the old nest material and kerosene them inside before putting in the clean straw or hay. A few sheep well cared for will pay a nice profit on their keep, while a large flock neglected will make the owner out of pocket. One of the most successful poultry- men of America grinds two bushels of oats with one of corn, and with 200 pounds of this mixes 100 jmirnds ot bran for the month’s mash. It does not pay to breed from fowls which have been affected with roup or other diseases which sap the vitality from their systems. The young stock from such matings are almost certain to show some trace of the disease. If you pen your pigs keep the pens clean and let the pigs have a variety of food with green staff a large part of it. Cut rye as soon as ready, then oats or clover, which ever you have come on first, then cow peas, or green corn, and thus bring them to fall with but little expense for grain. Finish off with corn and you will have good sweet pork at a moderate oost. whole | lu D< populi than first s| He dent post A nome Greatest of Privileges.—We are not to rest in others’ opinion about Christ, but may liavc a personal knowledge of him coming from a face-to-face Inter view.)
