Make Meat.

--The Augusta Chronicle gives the planters some sage advice, as follows:

‘ It is getting time to begin pushing the young hogs. It is well known that, from various causes, there is but a small stock in Georgia of hogs of such age as are usually fattened for pork and bacon. Nor is there a full supply of young hogs. It becomes very important, then, to make the most of what we have got. They should be fed to their full capacity, so far as the food at hand will admit, and as economically as possible. The run of the harvest fields, with the grain waste and the excellent crab grass, have caused the hogs to shed their old coat, and they are, as usual at this time of the year, in a fine, thrifty condition.
