Carp coiiUucaI in a . -srriall pood, if not fed, raosf subsist on snch nat-j uralfooct as the pond affords. In all pond., a" larjro amount of green mofes aiid stum nccaroulatca. If any person tvho owns- a pond stocKea witn uarp, win wnik arounu it of mornings cr evenings, 'he will see numbers of them- swimming in dustriously about, with their months just above ".water, seeking the scum vnd green moss, for such nourish ment as it may contain. The poor creatures, unless properly fed, must subsist upon , such hithy food, or perish. If Mich lish are taken out for eating, on opening them, they wnl be? 10 unci to contmn large quan tities Of green ollensive stuff, and on being prepared lor the table, it will bel found that they have a bad, muddyi flavor. Ofi the-othe hand if those same carp- had been regu larly fed on cooked corn, meal, or Irish potatoes, for 'five. or six weeks, before using on the table, their flesh would be sweet and palatable, ' and ,equaHin flavor to any trout, red horse, or even a sna.L I have tried both ways, and I know where of I speak- .They are easily trained to come fori their ieed; I always feed at a certain, place. I keep a j ieco of plank lyu:g near,-ori. which I strike a few sharp blows with a stick. As soon as the signal is given, they may be seen rushing in droves to the feeding ground, where they watch eagc-rly nntil the food is thrown in, when there is a rush an d a scramble, resem bli ng a d ro ve of hungry pig3. ' : ' . There arc! already several success ful carp ponds in our county, but we are satisfied that carp culture is only in its infancy yet, for as peo ple become more and more acquain ted "w i t bf tliei r : fi Ob- ?at : n g- o u al i 1 1 e s , Til -it ' 1 1 , 1 and the ease with-: which they canjof which is reported at 8-180,975 be raised "i n abundance, the 11 ri in" ber of ponds will increase. Any farmer having a spring with 'a "cove or basin below it, can have a carp pond at a very small cost. - W. K. FllALE Yi Salisbury, N. 0., Sept. G, 0C. St. Pttcrs's Snnday-School.
