I, a farmer's wife, insist that our lives may be the most independent, the freest from anxiety, of all the women in the land. We often hear the proverb tha- "it is not work but worry that kills," and as it rests with the wife to plan the three meats, the care is very much les sened if she knows that the cellar and pantry are well stocked with meats, vegetables, fruits, boxes of honey, jars of pickles,- bags of dried corn and beans, etc., besides milk, cream and butter, all of which can so easily be produced on a well managed farm. Contrast with this the cares of the wife of the me chanic or of the professional man, who must send out to half a dozen riaces to gather the materials for her Saturday's baking. Again, I am at a loss to under stand why it is any more drudgery for a farmer's wife to keep a house in order or to cook her husband's din ner thanit is for other women, or why it is drudgery at all. The frequent repetition of an act only makes it easier. If a woman- will wash dishes in the right way, she * need not "go on forever." I agree that nothing can take the place of a good broom, but I know from experienee that a good washing machine with a wringer attached washes as fast as three women, with less labor and a great saving to the clothes. I ha~ve frequently done the week's washing for a family of Sir in two hours, and with little fatigue. And, again in .this .age of cheap sewing machines, if a wo man needs to sew until late at night, it is because she is a slave to the fashians of the day, which require her children's clothing to be tucked and ruffled until the time and labor of making them is increased fourfold. Idon't profess to be a model wife, nor yet a model housekeeper, but I would like to impart a secret or two to those women who, to use their own .phrase, "never have a moment~ of their own." One is, always put a thing back in its place after you have used it, and reguire it of your children. I don't say of your husband, because as you did not brmng him up you are not responsible for his habits; but there are few men who will volun tarily add to a wife's burdens by habits of disorder. Another secret is to have certain days for certain work-baking days, churn ing days, and sweeping days,-an-l don't plan anything for the after noon, reserve that for rest and sewing, so that after an early sup per you can spend an hour in the garden. It is a great pity that so few of our American women take an interest in gardening. I know of few things more pleas ant than the gathering of vege tables that I have planted and cultivated .with my own hands. A garden hoe or rake is as easily handled as a broom and it is much easier to transplant tomatoes or sift lime over the early cabbages than make out loaves of bread; so thatt the excuse that it is hard work falls to the ground. I suppose there are all kinds of husbands in the land, but those II am acquainted with are more than willing to provide their wive~s with *help in-the kitchen or relieve them from the labor of cooking for the -hired men if they prefer garden ing or dairy work. I believe that' many women make slaves of them selves, quite unnecessarily, by sup posing that they must always have have a loaded table. when half! custom ourselves to thinking that our everyday duties are drudgery, why, of course, we will feel oppres sed and unhappy, but a contrary disposition and a little method and good management will work won ders. FRENCH HOUSEHOLD EcoNoMY. -The French butcher separates the bones from the steaks, and places them where they will do the most good. The housewife or ders just enough for. each person, and no more, evon to the coffee. If a chance visitor drops in, some body quietly retires and the extra cup is so provided, but nothing ex tra by carelessness or inattention. When the pot has boiled, the hand ful of charcoal in the little range is extinguished, and waits for an other time. No roaring cook stoves and red-hot covers all day long for no purpose but waste. The egg laid to-day costs a little more than the one laid last week. Values are nicely estimated, and the smallest surplus is carefully saved. A thousand little econo mies are practiced, and it is re spectable to prActice them. . Cook ing is an economical as well as a sanitary and gustatory science. A French cook -ill make a franc go as far as an American housewife will make three, and how much further than the American servaut nobody knows-we should proba bly be greatly astonished, could the computation be made how much of the financial, recuperative pow er of France is owing to her soups and her cheap food ; better living, after all, than the heavy bread and greasy failures of our culinary ignorance. CRACKER PLUM P UDDING.-Make a very sweet custard, and put into it a teaspoonful of salt. Take soda crackers, split them, and butter them very thick. Put a layer of raisins on the bottom of a large pudding dish, and then a layer of crackers, and pour on a little of tbe custard when warm, and after soaking a little, put on a thick layer of raisins, pressing them in. to the crackers wvith a knife. Then put on another layer of crackers, custard and fruit, and proceed tbus till you have four layers. Then pour over the whole enough custard to rise even with the crackers. It is best made over night, so that the crackers may soak. Bake from an.bour and a half to two hours. During the first half-hour, pour on, at three different times, a little of the cus tard, thinned with milk, to pre. vent the top from being hard and dry. if it browns fast cover with paper. To CooK BEANS.-When beans are kept over a year or more they become rather difficult to cook tender. One way to accomplish it is to soak them over night in soft water, and in the morning put them to boil, putting a quarter of a teaspoonful of soda in the water. The water must be turned off as soon as it boils, and changed two or three times. Have a teakettle of boiling water ready to cover them when the other is poured off, as cld water hardens them again. After they begin to crack openi they should be put ia the oven, with a piece of pork previously freshened, and water enough to keep them from burning, and bake a couple of Lours. Beans are a healthful and convenient dish and sould often appear on a farmer's table, being as goo~d or better when cold than they are when just cooked. COOKING EGGs.-Whben properly cooked, eggs are done evenly through like any other food. Tfhis result may be attained by putting the eggs into a dish with a cover, as a ten pail, and then pouring up. on them boiling water, two quarts: or more to a dozen eggs, and cover and et them away from the stove for fifteen minutes. The heat oi the water cooks the eggs slowly and evenly and sufficiently and to a jelly like consistency, leaving the centre or yolk harder than the: white, and the egg tastes as much? richer and nicer as a fresh egg is nicer than a stale egg, and no per son will want to eat them boiled* after having tried this method once. The raising of stock is one of~ the most profitabie bran,.he of: .iAiscellaneous. Hughlitt's lvory Wheat! MAKE MONEY AND BENEFIT YOUR NEIGHBOR.
