FAR3I, GARDEN* AND HOUSEHOLD ; oi Celery. I fc Henderson says that the practice re- ; C2 commended by most gardeners of earth- ! ing tip celery every two weeks from the g time it begins to grow, is utter non- i tc . y rAS'nlfirify in fnnc/h afrirurv. rustv ci plants. If wanted for use during the j tt latter part of this month it may new be js straightened np and the earth drawn j jr around it with a hoe. After a week, ; C( bank up to half its height and in ten j p days Suish the banking process. It s( will be blanched in ten days and ready ' ^ for use. Bank np no more than can be ! w used or sold, as i5 makes it hollow. j V( ! la How to Destroy Stump*. i ^ Here is a timely and important item j tj for those who desire to get rid of ; ^ stumps : In the autumn or early win- i ^ tor bore a hole one or two inches in ! diameter, according to the girth of the ; ^ stum7>. and about eight inches deep, i s; Fat into it one or two ounces of sale- j tj petre, fill' the hole -with water, I j, and plug it close. In the ensuing; a' spring take out the plug and pour in a ! 0 gill of kerosene oil and ignite it. The ; r, stumo will smolder awav. without ! J blazing, to the very extremity of the j s. :cots, leaving nothing but ashes. ' ^ CooUvA Food for Pics. I ^ Experiments have demonstrated that : f( cooking food adds to its value about 23 j j. per cent, for fattening pigs. From this ; ? apparent g-a.'n must be taken the miller's j J; toll, one-tenth, and the cost and ! u labor of cooking. Very few farmers n practice cooking, notwithstanding the c increase of the focd value. They do f, not consider that it pays, or else they a dislike the trouble. In old times, j j when farmers figured closer than they 11: do no , it was an almost universal cas- j v torn to ccok all the food for pigs. Pigs j r k will eat more and digest it better when j } food is slightly fermented. This also ; $ necessitates grinding, and on this ac- ; f count it is net generally practiced. It t will undoubtedly pay, as the extra gain j wonja more man equal me tnouie to i r the miller. When pigs eat a large r amount of meal in a raw state and not I v soured, it will ferment more or less in ; ^ the stomach and this iti u tends to j ^ destroy the appetite u:.u to produce j z scours. I j \i Improviuc Stock. | 1 The time has been in this countiw, | and not a great number of years ago, * when many farmers found almost insur- ? mountaole diiSculties in the way of the 1 introduction of good stock; but that ' ^ time has passed away.

The great cost of: 1 thoroughbred stock, at one time, wa3 a . barrier ;n the way of its general use, ; but breeding has now ptown to be a vast i industry, and prices of good individual: * s?res and dams have been so reduced as 2 to place them neaier the reach of s!l, ? than ever before.

The daily 3 ration new consist of seventeen and 3 one-us* i pi.vmufc ui uuru, urne puunu? i * of hay and* six and one-half pounds j of straw. It is found better to | cook the corn, or instead cf that, it can 1 be mixed with bran. In 1876 six and ] one-half pounds of eornmeal and eleven j * pounds of cats were substituted for ] eighteen and three-fourths pounds of : oats in the ration of the horses of the i i Paris Omnibus Company. The horses j maintained their good condition and j did their wor? as vrell as before, 1 although they were not quite so lively. < The cozupxny saved 420,600 f. that year 1 by the change owing to the low price of ; com and nigh price of oats. A j wrxtai. in tuts KjVu.uu(j \jz7uivmun, ^iviug ; j the experience of oi^e who had the care j of horsa railroad stables for several ; 1 years in this country, stated that the j best ration had been found to consist of j bian and corn meal in equal proportions.

An srrsvcr rnnfs I * and shorts la some recent experi- j ' merits bj E. Wolff and others on the j 1 digestibility of chopped straw mixed ! with the oats and hay it appeared that the horse extracted comparatively little I nutriment from the straw except when ' the ration contained bnt little hay and a large proportion of oats. In respect to tho mixed ration as a whole the digestion of the albnmincids and non-nitrogenous extractive matters (carbhydrates, etc.) was as com-! plete by the horse as by the sheep; ' but the fat and crude fibre were i digested to a much smaller extent by ; jL " periments have been ma de with th i t horse as compared with the work that j has been done with the other domestic j s animals, and no very safe conclusions I r can be drawn from the results thus far j t obtain* d ; but it appears to be shown | -y \ that so far as concentrated fodder, roots, j good hay, or green fodder are con- i j. y cemed the digestive capacity of this j r animal is equally as great as that of i ruminants, but that with respect to q straw or other coarse fodder, and espe- j( j. cially the more difficult digestible portion of such materials?the crude fibre ! ?its assimilative power is less, hence it : would not be good economy to put; much straw or poor i ay into the ration of the horse, provided that there are g other farm animals to consume it. j The use of other grains, roots and j oilcake is practiced to a comparatively a small extent, at least where horses are ? fed in large numbers.

Within the last few weeks the ladies j < .1 omt I oi tac DiiK v^anure iw>a- i deiphia have reeled sufficient raw silk j from cocoons raised during the summer ! to weave into a gown, which is to be i presented to Mrs. Garfield.

When finished this garment will have the distinction of being the first entirely silk fabric made in America. Postal cards have had the most wonderful growth of any new idea, perhaps, that this generation has seen. Dr. Stephens, a German official, originated it. Austria was the first to adopt it, in October, 1S69, and in the first three months mailed 2.930.000 of them. Then Germany took hold and used 45,408 the very first day. In the year 1879 Germany mailed *122,747,000. T' year all Europe will use 350,000,0uu. The United States will nse 250,000,000. They are used in seventy-three different countries. Mr. "Webb the English cutler, has just died leaving a fortune of nearly $1,000,Ol'O, and it is believed that a large part of it he would never have accumulated but for the novel plan he hit upon for advertising.

It is but a few years since anything like systematic bee culture has been attempted in the United States, but tho business has now become an important industry, more than 35,000,000 pounds of honey being annually produced and sold. The trade is principally carried on by largo capitalists, who often have from 2,500 to 5,000 swarms of bees. In California the bees are farmed out, tbat if, apiaries of 100 swarms or so j are placed in the grounds of farmers, 1 generally from three to four miles i apart. The farmers receive a fixed j rent or a share of the honey for their ! compensation, as may be agreed upon, j On an average, one acre of ground is j estimated to support twenty-five swarms of bees, and the yield of a swarm is generally about fifty pounds of honey a year. To the " literature of cranks " may , bo added some curious statistics leI cently compiled in JEnglan 3, showing | the extent of mental aberra ion among I the members of various professions and : trades in that country.

No persons in i the world are so well paid as these, and j the only merit, if merit it be, which can be accorded to them is that, in view < f great pecuniary prizes, they do their best to improve their natural abilities.

Everybody knows what an umbrella ! is. and can tell of what it is constructed: | but few are aware how an industry is represented in the stick of this useful and generally missing property. An official estimate, made in September last, in Kingston, Jamaica, showed that there was a little over 500,000 sticks awaiting export to England and the United States^to be made into umbrella handles. These sticks were almost without exception pimento, and it is not surprising to be informed that owners and lessees of pimento walks are becoming alarmed at the growth of a I trade which threatens to uproot, in a : few years, ail their young trees.

When it is remembered that each bundle contains from 500 to 800 sticks, each of which represents a young bearing pimento tree, the extent of destruction may be realized. The total production of silver in ai countries from 1493 to 1875, according to avoirdupois weight, was 397,125,267 pounds, of which 167,651,880 pounds, or 42.22 per cent,, came from Mexico; 68,CSS,400 pounds, or 17.3 per cent., from Peru, and 28,978,720 pounds, or 7.3 per cent., from the United States.

In Western Siberia milk and mana :al eggs are plentiful, the latter a farthing p^le jlf each; and everywhere, if you arrive at bole, be dinner-time, there is a chance of get- here, rst ting some meat, which you may or may ht not be able to eat. The fact is, you distn !C- must take your own provisions, and. for ' as this winter is better than summer, be- tiling ot cause then you have simply to freeze Jonr >n- your meat and chop off a piece with tic your hatchet when required. It ce is easy, moreover, to start with a stock ad of frozen meat pies, one of which ^>ara ot thrown into hot water is eatable in a an<^6 ai. few minutes; and so with the lumps of TL he frozen cream. Tea and sugar are car- ers f< :o- ried ot course by every Russian traveler, a yea ed and to this we added a small quantity cieti< he of tinned meat, fresh butter, anchovy scho< rs paste ana marmalade, tne last two as jfc ox modifiers in case we were absolutely thou 5 a driven to black bread. These things, vanC( )st with a stock of white bread taken from chur le, the larger towns, formed a base, jftss nd for which, when.., we could i rk get them, we were thankful. If any- ^ he j thing better fell in the way it was so wa sir much to the good; if white bread and Qom pe butter failed, then we hoped for im- cjiur nd proved circumstances.
