Every Writer off lier'farm eco- nomy, gives tine importance to this feat. 1, A recout writer on swine .truly says that sre want less fat and more muscle, and that the hog which can be made to grow the most lean meat, at the east •expense, in A given time, is the best hog, and conclndes that the breeders have not yet prodneed such a type. Weigh scele.s on the farm a -re very rarely.to be seen excepting small ones for weighing srnal.1 articles.; yet in wan- derings, we occasionally meet with an enterprising farmer who has invested in aka article._ The invariable reply to our inquiry is, Tliey Wbuicl not bs without there,' and they consider the money well spent. • Variety of leockyih desirable for alt animals, and especially so far pigs. The skilful feeder haft learned the iniportarice of:pleasing the appetite. Each food has a flavour peculiar to itself, dad the qual- ities peeulier to it. The greater the variety the better is the eppetite satisfied .and tbe most satisfactory will be the growth of the pig. Clover bloat on cattle, ibis said,. can be readily cured by tyhig in the ani- mal's mouth A smooth' round stick from three to four. inches in' diameter, and 'then put a little salt in the' mouth to rii.stke- them chew.- and. swallow.
