4ORI1CULT IJRK CORN. -Prepare the ground for the corn crop by deep plowing if the soil is naturally good. If rather poor, plow shallow, bringing up only an inch or two of the poorer subsoil but subsoil each furrow deep, and as soon as plow ed barrow well with the smoothing bar row. If you have stable manure, well rotted, plow it in after it has been heav ily spread over the turf. Stable manure is the best lerlilizer you can use for corn, unless it be ashes. A good dres sing of stable manuro we call forty two horso wagon loads to the acre. If you can got ashes, broadcast one hundred bushels to the acre, after the first har rowing of the land. As soon as the corn is planted sow 2 bushels of plaster (gypsum),and 4 bush els of salt mixed together over each acre. This will drive off the cut worm and give a fine start to the growth of the corn when it comes up. Run a Thomas, or smoothig harrow over it every week, first one way, then across ] and diagonally, until the corn is 6 inch es high. rhis harrowing will kill all grass and weeds as fast as they spring up, and keeps the land light. Then thin as before mentioned. Now use the cut tivator every 10 days, going as near the corn a3 po&sible. If possible use the hoo to work closer about the plarts and to destroy the grass between the plants or in the hills. At this working with the hoo, bean cI pumpkns may be planted, and they will bear good crops without materially afl'octing the growth or yield of 'o corn. We would never use a plow in corn culture, only the harrow and cultivator, as level culture is certainly tie best for I corn in al1 places except where water I is likely to lay, and in such places < when corn was worked for the last time. < we would rui at plow deep in the in tro of each row to drain off the surplis I water. As soon as lthe corn begils to show I signs of tasselling stop working, and if I the season ii dry, sow broadcrst, two < bishols of plaster per itcio over it, for i the pmiposo of attracting moisture fron I the atmosplere. Scientists attempt to show that corn i is ipt to prove ifortilo lit times, anld dhat it requires root pruning if it grows I too hixuriant. We think no stalks of I good corn will be infertile or barron if 1 it Is not too crowded in the hill or too I thickly planted. Give it room to grow and to receive the sun and 'air and every stalk will bear. As to root pruning, it I is bosh, it wants IIl the roots it. can make to draw water and food from the soil. INOnEAsINO LEAN AilAT IN PIGS,-Wo may well sUppose that the habit of the pig in laying on an exocasivo (ulanitity I of fat has been cause(l by long anct ex essive cfeeding of fat-producing food, i and it is not likely that any sudden I transformation could bo brought about; I but it is well known that the pigs of I different countries diffor in respect to I fat. We havo only to contrast fattened a Pigs o this country with those in Canl- I lit. There pork is fattenedpartly upon I barley, but largely upon peas, a highly i itrogenous food, yielding a large pro- I portion ot muscle, and our pigs arc fat- 1 tened almiost wholly upon corn, an ox cessively starchy and fattening food, I Theli Canadian pork has a much larger< proportion of lean mcat and less lard. The difoerence is very marked, so much so, that in a market supp41lied with both kiids, purchasers easily selece, thu 011e or the other, as osired. Wild hogs (do not have such excess eh fat, init the Southern hlog, which is grown much slower thian those in the Nort.h( rn and1 .Western St ates, and fed much less corn, isocomparat ively kuoan. There can, therefore, be little dloubt that thle habit of deposit ing this excess of fat is caused by lonig-continuedl fced inug adapted to that endl. The hog is naturally a grass and1 root-oating ani mal, and ill its domestication is fed atl most wvholly, in this country, upjon) co.. cenitratedl food.

Tus dif'liulty of introducing tile foi oein w'ino grapes into America is duo to several caulses, among whichl is the facet that uniilss assisted by artiilcial means tile grapes wvill not ripen, nor caln the vines endure the chlanges of our climate, Except in (Xiiornia, all our grapes areL derived from tihe wil varieties. It is said thalt tile Giraselle, a seedling from ian imiported grape, has beeni found to suit our climiato well, it having originau ted ini New .Jersey.

TI'u hog is very sensitive to cold, anid should lhe wecll shleltered when the sea son becomes severb.

(irEEN food for young hogs is stren ouisly adlvoeated by the Indiana Far merf. The most important reason for it is to develop the alimentary organs, and the reason is an~ excellent one. Tjhe stomach is the mill for grindling the con-| cent rated food up~on which the animal is finally to be fattened, and it should be * large mi capacity and in vigorous work ing order. A C0InRitBPONDENT of the fou'a Jhome Metad suggests that the moans of insur ing a good color for butter is to teed each cow a pailful of cornmeal mush, warm, each day, the coran to be of the yollow variety.

DOMESTIO, Tun Troy pound, il used In this ,or-ntry for weighing the precious met ls, is believed to have bon derived rrom the Roman weight 5759,2 grains, the 125th part of the Alexandrian tal 3nt, this weight like the Troy pound, liaving been divided by the Romans in. to twelve ounces. The earliest statute f this kingdom in which the Troy weight is named, is the 2 Henry V, itatute 2. chapter 4, but the Troy weight is universally allowed to have )een in general use from the time of King Edward I. The most ancient Bye. em of weights in the Kingdom of Bng and, was the moneyer's pound or the noney pound of the Anglo-Saxons, which was continued in use for somo onturies after the conquest, being then snown as the "tower pound," or some Imes the goldsmith's pound. It con ,ained twelvo ouncos or 450 grains each, )r 5,400 grains, tid this weight of oil ror was a pound sterling. The tower *ound was abolished in 1527 by a itatute of Henry VIII, which first estab ished Troy weight as the only legal voight for gold and silver, and from ,his time to the present our system of ioinago has been based on the Troy voight, the Troy pound containing i,760 grains, 'eiiotrated to h 1e Bone.
