Mr. Fearman, the well-known pork packer of Hamilton, Ont., says that " Whenever I come across a de- tective aide of bacon that has resisted the salt in curing, I find that it is the product of an unspayed Canadian sow." He recom- mends the Tamworths-as-,..being the best for packers. It is a good, long, deep -sided pig with plenty of hair of a reddish hue,and large in bone. And he lnrther says : "If a pig shows !t: .nv latter points it invariably means a good proportion of lean meat." This coming from such an authoriy ought to be deeply impressed on the minds of the Canadian farmers. The average consumer, more especially in cities, requires and will have as much lean meat as fat, and it does seen to point to the condition of breeding a class of hogs that lays on as much lean as possible. The present class of animal that is offered seems to me to he of a grade of Yorkshire Whites, and are most favored by bacon curers. As a rule they prefer them about nine months old; weighing (alive) 160 to 240 pounds for Canadian trade ; for export should not exceed when dressed 140 pounds; should be ready for market during the earliest months in June, July, August and September, for preference. The quality wanted is lean pork from fairy fed swine,to meet the requirements of the English market and export. They should be sold alive to the packers, where the system of killing, dressing, cooling and curing can be done in a quick, uniforn manner. It will be found that it will pay the - farmer better to sell his swine on foot than to market them dressed ; and it is not profitable to feed swine After they exceed 200 pounds alive. The public taste has turned against fat meats of all. kinds, and the farm- er must produce what the consumer re- quires, se that with a little extra care in housing, the winter raising of young pigs to be sold off in June, July and August should become a very valuable adjunct to winter dairying. Mr. Fearman writes that he finds great difficulty in getting animals that are always suitable in size at the right time of year, and can never get the quan- tity that he requires from the surround- ing districts. When in full running order he will consume , 750 per day, and can only get this number by send- ing long distances. The old fashioned prac- tice of killing large stores must rapidly give way to the improved method of summer killing young pigs. The operation of spay- ing pigs consists of removing the ovaries, the essential organ Of -generation in the female, and analogous to the testes of the male. They are two ovid, irregular-shaped 'bodies smaller than the latter situated in the abdominal cavity, and may be likened to a small cluster of unripe mulberries : they are a number off small vesicles or membranous sacs of various saes, reddish in color. These are the Graafian vesicles in various stages of development. The pig of which the diagramwastaken was just approach- ing her period of season, and is the finest illustration that I have seen. In the spaying of pigs, there are certain conditions that most never be lost sight of, and point directly to the success or failure of the operation, The first essential condi- tion, is that you must have the bowels com- paratively empty by starving or withhold- ing food for about 14 to 18 hours before the -......_. operation. They should be from one month with these, encircle him with one; --keep whatever you have in your hand moving over him ; lift up his tail and put a rope or strap around as you would a crupper. He will soon learn that he is not to be hurt and will allow you to throw the saddle part of the harness over him. This do several times and finally draw it off over his hips and let it fall behind him. The wildest colt can ins very brief time be made to submit to Allis treatment, and after,. this there will be no trouble in patting on the harness. a greatpointgained. - - .At this stage in his breaking I bit him and teach him the word "whoa."

Now fasten a -cord to the ring of the -bit, stand in front come here,"pull him of and say -en - him tly and if he efuses to obey, touch him' lightly with the whip around -his fore leg. He will soon follow you and just as soon as. he will do this, press en the bridle and say " whoa." Continue this ' kind of training for some little tune for it will pay you well for doing it. Make every lesson thorough and do not try to have the colt take a second step until he has taken the first - If he will follow yoit at the word "come'' and atop as the word " whoa" and will give to the bit readily, it is time to put on the harness. Be in no haste in doing it ; lay on the harness gently but without giving any indications of fear. Let him stand with it on a few minutes before starting him and he will be certain of one thing—that is, that the harness will not hurt him ; now start him and continue to dive him until he can rein perfectly;He will be a little awkward at first, but will learn it in a sur- prisingly short time, if handled properly.

All this hav- ing been done, train him to the shafts be. fore they touch hien; and in doing this the safe way is to use the foot strap ; - let him stand on three. legs. This will not .. hurt him in the least for a while. Take a smooth pole of suitable length and rub him all over with it, rub it over his hips and along his side as though it were a shaft, use it. on both sides until he shows no signs of fear, then between his legs, let it fall down on either side of him, carefully at first, finally as carelessly as you please. At this stage of his training it is safe to show him the road cart. In the first place lead him up to it, lot him put his nose on it and smell of it ; lead him up, to the shafts, let him see and _smell of them ; -shake them before him and drop them down. O iristianity. Christianity has not only so spread that a third of the population of the globe is Christian, but it has wrought the greatest moral and spiritual -changes. It has trans- formed religion, giving the world, in place of the heathen systems with their absurdi- ties, falsehoods and immoralities, the pure faith of Christ, which, -even if it were a fable, would be the most beautiful and in- spiring fable the world has ever known. It has given a new civilization to a third of the world. Under its influence society has as- sumed a riew.form. The rights of person ality. have been recognized. Constitutional gov- ernment has been established. Jurispru- dence has been reformed. Class distinctions have been broken down. Slavery has been abolished. The brotherhood of rations is beginning to be recognized. Charitable in- stitutions have been established. The posi- tion of woman has been elevated. The rights of children have been recognized.

Smith, in Our Grange Homes. up the earthy constituents of bone ; there- fore in all cases when,apayed pigs are grown for the market, harewood ashes, or better, bone meal, should be fed with daily ration. The effect will soon be evident; not only will it build up the bony structures of the body, but will aid digestion, which must be kept at the highest pitch of efficiency. Hog feeders who have tried this practice pronounce the effects most gratifying, and the benefits unmistak- able. The wood ashes may have a little, very little, salt mixed with them to advant- age. Any man who holds that the pig is not deserving of care and attention will never make a dollar raising them. Whilst as the scavenger of the farm they are invalu- able, and will more than earn their keep for that purpose alone. But what is the gener- al practice of keeping these animals ? Any place seems good enough for a sty—dark, damp, and hence unclean. No man would think of keeping any other animal under such conditions. Give your animal plenty of light; let the sun shine into the pig sty, by making large windows that can be opened, admitting fresh air and sunlight by that means. See that the pens are kept clean, give plenty of straw, and you will soon find that pigs are quite as clean as any other animal. It is often said pigs delight to wallow in the mud. That is no doubt true; at the same time: it must not be for- gotten that they are carrying out a natural instinct, for they aro of the pacherdermet- ous class of animal—the same as the hippo- potamus that delights in taking a mud bath occasionally. We hold the opinion that the best anitnal to grow fat and thrive in the least passible time is a half -bred pig —a direct first cross from pure stock to the ordinary stock of the distriot, and may be described as a grade pig, and are always so described. If pigs are not intended for breeding purposes, they should be all cas- trated and spayed a:, the time mentioned above, and it will be found that the aver- age loss by the operation will not exceed one per cent., if ordinary care is taken. BREAKING COLTS. A Firm, Gentle Touch Requisite. Don't Break Him in the Shafts. In breaking a colt, what to do depends on his age, previous handling and disposi- tion. A colt that has been carefully and properly handled from the time he was weaned does not require the same treatment as one which has been allowed to run wild. The first impression that we want to make on the colt's brain is that we can master him. That can be very easily done and Must be to make him a safe and obedient servant of man. Away with all your sugar breaking ; whoever talks about subduing colts with sugar and apples never was cut out to train horses, and whenever he rides out he needs some one to drive for him. A colt to be worth anything must be subdued, he must be made to think that man is his master and that he must mind . him. By means of the foot strap we will make him stand on three legs. This he may resist a little at first, but the struggle will be brief and not severe. The colt is now in your hands and at your mercy and now is the time to exercise your judgment and kindness; now you can be firm and yet kind. He knows that he is under your control and will begin to look to you for friendship and help; keep him in this position for only a very short time, not to exceed five or eight minutes, give him a little rest and repeat the operation handle him gently but firmly ; throw straps over him, rub him to six weeks old ; they will be then ready for the market at about nine to, twelve months of age.

There is no more remarkable creature than the mudfish, which inhabits certain of the rivers of Western Africa, and, as its name implies, lurks at the muddy 'bottoms of these rivers. At first sight there is noth- ing especially striking about this animal. It looks very much like an ordinary fish, ex- cept for its curious, long, slender fins. A visitor who knew nothing about the crea- ture reature would probably go away with the im- pression that he had seen nothing out of the common. When the fishes arrive at a zoo each one is encased in a ball of dried mud, lined with mucus from its body and perforated with a small aperture to admit of breathing. The "cocoon," as it is some- times called, on account of its analogy to the earthen ease fabricated by manyeal,er- pillars in which to undergo their metamor- phoses, on being placed in warmish water is dissolved and the fish liberated. The habit which the mudfish has of making an earthen chamber of the mud at the bottom of the river, is a most wonderful provision of nature for the exigencies of the climate. The rivers which the fish inhabit are liable to periodical droughts. When such a drought is imminent, the fish retires to deep water and excavates a pit, in which it lies, covering itself over with a thick layer of mad. It can suffer with impunity the com- plete drying up of the river. But the most interesting fact about the creature is that during the time of its voluntary imprison- ment it Breathes air directly through an aperture left in the cocoon, by means of lungs, like a land animal. When the rains. dissolve the mud and liberate the fish, it breathes by means of gills just like any other fish. THE SIPHON CLOCK. How The II our of the Day May Be Indicat ed by a Novel Contrivance, A very interesting contrivance, that can easily be constructed by an amateur, is at- tracting attention in France. Over the top of two side supporters or side arms a cross- beam is placed in the shape of a knitting - needle, which must be perfectly straight, of course, and connected at one end with a small hour hand that moves around a dial. A tiny pulley swings around the center of the needle, and in the groove of, this pulley runs a thread, to end of which is attached a float,. and to the other end a balance weight. An ordinary candle -wick passes from the larger glass into the smaller one by its side. As : soon as, the large glass_ is filled with water the operation begins, the wick gradu- ally absorbing the water, making the float fall lower and lower, which action deter- mines the movement of the hand on the dial. The clock is easily regulated if it goes too fast the thickness of the wick must be diminished ; if too slow, it must be in- creased. The form and size of the large glass on which the regularity of the clock depends has been determined by N. Pellet of the Faculty of Sciences in Paris, but with a lit- tle careful study even an ordinary glass can be made to render good service. Making Home Attractive.
