'Cleanliness Important far Pigs. el l'igs do not love dirt, as many believe ' they become dirty because they are thrust into it, or cannot obtain water without it. The following experiment, performed in England, tells a story worthy'the attention - of all poi k raisers. , A gentleman in Norfolk put up six pigs of almost exactly equal health, to fallen; treated them, wiih one exception, all ex. actly the same, and fed them on similar food, given in equal qualities to each, for seven weeks. Three of these pigs were ' left to shift for themselves, so far as clean liness went, and the other three were care- fully curried, b ushed and washed. These latter consumed in the seven weeks less food by five bushels, than tho other three, ' and, yet, when killed, weighed more by iwj stones, four pounds on the overage. Counfry Gtnlltman. Farm Work. It rs a matter of great importance to tho farmer, thai he should lay out the work of the season beforehand, and now is the time to do it We need much more thorough system in our farm ing operations. Determine upon tfie fields you will cultivate, and what shall be allot ted to oats, corn, rye, wheat, buckwheat, potatoes and other root crops; what walls snail be re-set; ana what ditches thall be dug; and how much luLor will be nettled to accomplish the work. Leave nothing to be decided upon in htste. A great deal of lime and mental laboi will bo saved, by making your plans deliberately at the be ginning of the year. If there are doubt ful matters, consult the best farmer in your neighborhood, and cive his opinion due weight ui your decision. A neighbor's experience will often save a useless t-x-penditure of money and labor. When your plans are laid, carry them out month, by month, and week by week, until the year is completed. I you need capital for your legitimate business, hire it Vou can as well afford to pay interest for this purpose as any other business man. Turn! th notice of the readin .,. . .i i, .... ( not asiue to speculation in anyiuimr tnut you do not understand. Glory in llie farm and live by it. Fans mo. Pruning may bo attended to this month, and what cannot be done now should be adjourned over to June. Remove all dead limbs from fruit trees. Young apple trees should have their su perabundant wood tinned out. Limbs that cross each other should be removed. The head of a tree may be trained to almost any desirable shape, by early pruning. , A low head, formed in die shape of an in verted umbrella, is said to be the bW, to give the growing fruit the most air and sun light. Great care should be taken to use none but sharp instruments in prun ing. The wrol thni!d be neatly cu without mangling the bark or splitting the liiuba. f2 That man only is truly brave who fear nothing so much as doing a klwnofol action; and that dares resolutely and uudauntedly go where his duty, how dangerous eocrcr it is, may call liim.

The Two Dollar Magazine contained 3o articles, the Lady's Book 02. The Two Dollar Magazine contained 32 en gravings, tho Lady's Book 5t. The Two Dollar Magazine contained 04 pa ges, the Lady's Book 100. j . Twenty-four more engravings; twenty-six more articles, and thirty-six mare pages, nearly doublo the quantity. The lowest club jiriceof the Two Dollar Magazine is $1,25; lowest club price of Lady's Book $1,07, only 42 cents difference in the price, which is three and a half cents on each number, and for that sum (three and a half cents), you receive twenty-six more articles, twenty-four more engravings, Rnd thirty-six more pages month ly certainly a very cheap three and. a half cents' worth.
