The Merhanlral Farmer.
Farmers in general have not yet
fully awakened to the Importance of
s more liberal use of mechanical
tools nt homo. Every farmer brings
them into use more or lens, but not
one-half of the land tillers use the
saw, plane and hammer one-tenth
part of what might bo made profit-
able. I he chief hindrance to me-
chanical employment upon the farm
may bn attributable to the neglect
of obtaining aids, or in other words,
of procuring tools; but few farmers
havH oven a decent saw or hammer
upon their premises, and it is very
seldom that we find what might be
••ailed a good net of bench tools, and
in many neighhorhootls it would bo
difficult to make up a set by bring-
ing the entire l. t together. The
husbandman who depends upon
borrowing is always in trouble, be-
sides which, the time sj ent in going
for and returning tools, with the
money spent in replacing borrowed
ones, would amount in a ninglo year
to enough to procure a tolerably good
set at least.
It is just as essential that the
farmer should understand the princi-
ples of mechanism as it is that he
should be posted in the principles of
stock raising and grain growing or
any oiher department intimately con-
nected with his avocation. He should
know when his mowing machine, hay
rake, plow or other implements are
not properly adjusted, and be pro-
pared to apply the remedy, and to be
well enough posted to prevent being
cheated when purchasing these uten-
sils. Every husbandman should fit
up a workshop either in his house or
barn, says the Farmers Voice, if not
able to build a place for the purpose,
and get a kit for tho bench just as
soon as his circumstances will admit
of it; then a tool will beat hand when
wanted, and nearly all tho repairs
upon farm implements and buildings
may bo done without going to thoex-
pense of employing a professional
mechanic.
There are rakes, hay racks, sleds,
at the home workshop, and itinumer-
sble improvements made around the
farm buildings. There are feeding
racks to make, grain troughs to con-
struct, barn doors to fix up by re-
hanging or relatching, stanchions
to build or improve, weather boarding
to be put on, and roofs to mend, be-
sides stores of little necessities which
may be provided at the house for tho
convenience of the women folks.
Every housewife who has a husband
or son familiar with the use of me-
chanical tools will give her testi-
mony in favor of the farm workshop.
< Iih..kI r Feed.
While hogs thrive best, especially
during growt h, if given a variety of
food, at the same time care must ho
taken not to make what may l>c
termed radical changes of feed too
suddenly. If they have been on dry
feed exclusively and especially if
confined in reasonably close quarters
it will not Ik; bo t to turn them out
on grass or clover and expect them
to maintain a vigorou* growth on it
alone. Or if they have been fed slops
for some time changing to something
else will atTe:*t the growth for a time
at least. With hogs as with nearly
or quite all other classes of stock
every advantage must Ikj taken to
secure Vie best results at tho lowest
cost With pigs there must be no
htoppage in growth from the time
they are farrowed until they are put
on the market, and a radical change
of feed will often change or stop the
growth. Of course in a few days
they will recover from the effect but
it causes a small loss and it is these
small losses that often determine
the question of profit or loss. It is
easily possible to supply a variety
without making sudden changes in
the ration. If it is necessary to
change let it be done gradually and
then change can be made without the
animals feeling the effect
During the winter all stock are fed
largely upon dry feed. With hogs of
course more or less slop can be given
nearly or quite up to the time of mar-
keting. During the growth a differ-
ent ration is needed to what should
be given after a sufficient growth has
been secured to commence feeding to
fatten, but at all times in making
what may be termed radical changes
it is best to make them gradually,
and in this way the change may read-
ily be made without any stoppage of
the growth of the pigs. In fhe
spring pigs that have been kept in a
good, thrifty condition duriag the
winter can be made to make a very
rapid gain after the grass or clover
starts, but in order to do this it is
very essential that they be kept on
free feed, (iive them all of the grain
they will eat and then let them have
the run of the pastures in addition.

To secure a rapid growth the pigs

Tea should always be made with
freshly boiled water. The gases that
are in water and give an agreeable
flavor are driven off by boiling, and
when water has been boiled for any
length of time it loses most of its
