From tlie Journal of lionlth. THE CRAVAT. On the propriety of covering the neck in men, the ancients entertained very dif
ferent ideas from those which prevail at
on retiring: to sleep w hether at night, or
during the day: much evil has been occasioned by a neglect of such precaution. A ffreat deal more miht be said ia re gsid to this subject. We might hint ta the singer and public speaker, the injury their voices sustain bv a cravat of too great bulk, or one so tightly drawn as to compress the throat and windpipe. we might warn the vountr of the danger, when heat-
i ed by exercise, of throwing off the accus-

TO FAK3ILRS. The fattening of winter hogs is a mat
ter of importance, and by proper man
agement much may be eaved. As soon
is the iudian corn is fit to feed, the hoga
hould be put into a pen. Rye, buck
wheat or corn ground together, boiled
potatoes, pumpkins, &c. make excellent -lop for thern; it should be made thick

they will eat clean.

riety of diseases, to wit: mange, meaz'e, stopping of the issues cf their fore leg, fcc. These diseasesit is believed, proceed from the filthy manner in which hogs are too frequency kept. Tho mange may be cured by sprinkling on the backs of the hogs, wood ashes, and
letting tht-m out of a rainy day, after putting oil on them; a more effectual way is to wash them with soap sudsj and then oil them; after this trouble, keep them clean. For the m azles the flour of brimstone is said to be good. For the stoppage of the issues of the fore leg nothing more is necessary than to rub them with a corn cob, and then open the bob s with the end of a knitting needle, or somethir e of that kind. B iled apples, pears, pumpkins, po. tatoea and squashes, all make t xct llent food for yoiiog shoats, and much the tlip.apest. Every farmer who wishes to raise pork for the market, ought to have n boiler fixe i for that purpose. After harvest, hogs should be turned into the orchard, that they may get the e. rly ripe apples, which fail before the season of cider making commences. It is now timp to mike up your apples into cider, for preservation. That which was made last month ia ot lv fit for vinegr, or immediate use. If u wish your cider to be free from all un pleasant taste, and to 6tand the winter without becoming hard and disagreeable, make it of sound apples. That made from rotten apples may make tolerable vinegar cr whiskey, but will neither be pal tahle,nor keep. Fit up yourcasks, and purify them from mutine?9. Cider rhould be filtered through sand or charcoal, and as soon as it has worked, racked into pure casks or bottles. Vour winter apples should also be gathered
before, they are injured by the frost. Never shake them oil, to bruise and rot; hut hand pick all y ou expect to Jay up for the winter. Th" trouble is eome thing more, but will be fully paid for by the increased worth of apples thus gathered. Look round you and see if yoii cannot take some measures to improve your farm. Can you not drain the wet parts of it, and lead in streams upon the dry; remove slumps, stones. Sec. build fences, or prepare a place for compost. Can yoti not make a large slack of litter in or near your barn-yard, which you may cut down next winter, as fast as the cattle will tread it into dung; and with which you may lifter your stables, hogMies, &lc. Gather the seeds that are first ripe, and preserve them carefully. Sed corn may be gathered in the field. Raise yourown seeds, and vouwill know their quality.
