\ v; AGRICULTURE. . v ipFa - Tub true farmer does not stop to count the cost of improvement, tor his reason prompts him to believe that he cannot go wrong by endeavoring to improve, tvery acre of his farm is cultivated to its highest capacity, and his soil never deteriorates in quality. He rotates his crops with a view to ii'creased fertility, and he estimates his profits by the amount of expense entailed in fecuring that profit. The failure to re alize immediate results docs not discourage him, for he knows that, through his judi cious system of eufiivatiou, the realization is but deferred a little while longer. He farms for prjflt and he spends for profit. He knows nothing of stinted economy, winch saves* to-day and robs to-morrow. The farm is his bank, his workshop and his occupation, no stone being left unturn ed, and no portion slighted at the expense of another part. A good farm means good slock. The squealing hog has no place an it, but must lie sujierseded by the qmet thoroughbreds. The tangle-fleectd, small carcassed ^sheep cannot be allowed, where only the merino, the Cotswold and the Oxford Down are adapted. The scaggy Lovmes of the past are seen no more, "for the deep-milking Holstein, the cream giving Jersey and the beef-producing Hereford have occupied iheir places. The thoroughbred and the Clydesdale plow the fields that formerly yielded to the wind-broken plugs, and tbe wagons and implements are of the most im proved labor-saving patterns. All this means capital, f and is expensive; but when we consider the fact tnat it costs no more to keep the best than the bad, and that expense means profit in the end, the cost is not so formidable as it seems. But the manure heap is the most impor tant ot all. A good farmer can be selec ted by the manner in which he keeps his manure. The manure is the wealth—the bank on which the check is drawn—and it is imprudent to neglect It. Drenching rains and scorching suns cany upward ana down ward tlie soluble and volatile constituents of the unpioiected heap, and often great ditenes are dug to allow the black liquid r dies to pass off and away forever. Bui die good fanner works differently. He makes bis manure fine, attends personally to the process ot decomposition, protects it from the weatber and endeavors to make it a ready food for crops when hauled to the fields. Farming pays well—to good farmers. DOMESTIC. HUMOROUS, Attsnd to lUi'Aras Pitoupti.t —Oneol the best habits the larmer can torm is tlial of attending to the little needs as soon as be sees them. If tic does this, there wili be no failing down, no loose or initemg boards on bams or sheds—none of that aii of general dilapidation, which ouesi.es so often about our lanns. Everything will have a neat and orderly and well kept ap pearance. if not attended to, it will not take long to give tbe premises the untidy, neglected appearance which detracts great- iy from tbe satisfaction alTorded by the looks of a well-grow i crop. There should be a consistency between the crops anu buildings. If one is not neglected the other should aot be. It is 43 much econo my and wise calculation to attend to one ns ike other. It you take pride in the ap pearance of your corn field, you ought to in the fence that encloses i*, and the build ing which is to receive its product. A little attention to tbeee now and then will keep them in good condition and there now arid then will bo a consistency about the farm and its productions which itself wili repay you for all the work expended. M ax v are too careless about the resetting of their horses’ shoes. Some have the mistaken idea that the farrier who car make shoes stay on the longest is the besl workman, even if his skill as a sheer is bared mriiely on this. The little gained by shoes staying on longer than a reasona ble length ot time, which is fiom tour to •! weeks, is more than lost in the end by ruining the f< ot. Too many nails, and nails of too large a size, are often used, which is not good lor the foot. K isping the shell of the foot atler tbe clinches are- turned is injuiious and should never be permitted It is much belter, easier, and cheaper, to keep the met healthy than to cure them after thev are d siaseel. A mkmbkk of tiie Elmira Farmers’ Club says of orchard grass that no other grass is so sme to grow from seeding, and none will bear the tramp of teel better.Mo kind starts quicker in spring and continues lat er in fall, and none springs up more rap- 1 dl) after grazing. Anotuer member ex amined a pitcu during the late Intense drought, w hich was green and fresh,while timothy adjoining was dried as if dead. Farm HRs sometimes sneer at w hat tfiev style “book farming,claiming that they prefer experience. Experience and si uuy should jointly be acquired by all. With years ot experience, there are but few far mers who can visit the agricultural shows, judge and select the prize stock. It is important, in order to be a fii st-class far mer, to understand all that pertains to it, and nothing is so much needed as know iug Low to select the best. Mot one farmer in ten appreciates the value of ground feed aver corn m the ear. The fact has been tested thousands of umes that one bushel of meal will put as much fat ou an animal as five |>ecks oi corn fed in the giain. The saving of one fifth of tbe torn a fanner has grown will l*iy lor a mill in one winter, and yet have tbe mill in good condition to repeat this process lor a dozen years to come. Thk law of Mew Vork provides that the owner or possessor of any dog lhai shall kill or wcmld any sheep or lamb shall be liable for the value of such sheep or lamb to the owner thereof, withom proving no nce to the owner or possessor of such dog. or knowledge by him that his dog was malicious or disposed to kill sheep. Is favor of farming it may tie truly -said that » greater proportion of Ibose who be gin by working on a farm rise to compe tence and moderate wealth than in any otner pursuit. Farm wages may be low, but they usually include l*oanl, while the temptations 10 dissipation in the rural dis trict a are much less than m cities. Cakkfci. experiments by Fiofcssor Jlc Bryde of the Jmversity of Tennessee, show during the two years they have been con ducted that a seeding of one and three- quarter bushels of wheat to the acre pro- uuces the heaviest yield. This is affirmed by those who have experimented lor such a purpose in other sections. Milk, says an exchange, has the power to absoib obiiOi*ou8 gases and effluvia from tbe air around it, and it should not be forgotten that tbe purest butter ever made may become tainted and poisoned in one short Lour by objection ible surround ings. Uaitoss composed of entirely of timo thy hay, though not so good for horses as those mixed with cl ver, yet are preferred by horsemen, a..d clear timothy commands the highest price. Therefore, if hay is to lx- sold, timothy alone should be sown; but 11 wauled for home use a mixture of clover is 110 .ielriiueiit. A Cure for Diphtheria.—Put a tea spoonful of flour of brimstone in a wine glass full of water and stir with the fin ger instead of a spoon, as the sulphur does not amalgamate with water. When the sulphur is well mixed give it as a gargle, and in two minutes the pa tient is out of danger. Brimstone kills every species of lungns in man, beast or plant in a few minutes. Instead of spitting out tbe gargle, swallowing is better. In extreme cases when tbe fun gus is too nearly closed to allow garg ling, blow the sulphur through a quill into the throat, and after the fungns has shrunk follow with the gargling. If the patient cannot gargle take a live coal, put it on a shovel, and sprinkle a spoonful of brimstone upon it and let the sufferer inhale it by holding his hea dover it. Aprokb made of brown linen of the proper width so that the selvage needs no hemming at the sides, may be made very pretty by fringing out the bottom to the depth of two inches; overcast the edge where the raveling ceases, then about twe inches above that daaw out tlireads for au inch and a half, and then run a blue or scarlet ribbon through the threads that are left, making blocks of the ribbon and thread alternately. Above and below Ibis a row of feather stitching is added and a row ou the band and sides also; the pocket tnmmed to match is put on at tbe right side. A pa*tty chair back is made of an an tique lace stripe put over silk. Have the laoe in the centre and on the silk stripes of the same width at each side; embroider a pretty vine. This is lovely, made of the lace and blue silk, with sprays of small pink buds, or of cardin al satin with daisies and buttercups em broidered on it. Tlie top is turned down and hemmed and the bottom may be finished with lace, or be made in points with a tassel on each point, It is not a good plan to have tne white lawn and cambric dresses “done up,” as the phrase is, to lay away for the winter, in the expectation that they will look fresh and be ready for imme diate wear in tbe spring will be disap pointed. Of course they should not he put away dirty, but the starching and irojung may well be left till spring; on ly common calicoes should be starched and ironed before packing away. For croup, administer a teaspoonful of strong alum water; repeat the dose every fifteen minutes until free vomiting occurs. Put the feet and limbs in hot water, and then wrap up in flannel; place on the chest a poultice of corn- meal sprinkled with mustard. Beware of cold draughts, As the attack de parts administer a dose of magnesia, rhubarb or castor oil. When children are liable to cronp, always keep the al um-water solution ready on the wash- stand. To make a good sticking plaster, put two spoonfuls of balsam of Peru to six of isinglass, melted with very little wa ter, and strained. Mix these well to gether in a small stone ]nr over the fire. Pin out some black Persian or sarsenet on a board, and dipping a brush into the mixture, pass it over the silk five or six times; then hold it to the fire, but not very near, and it will soon become black and shining. A good authority on all matters per taining to the table says that a tooth some saiad can he prepared at any time during the winter if you have a supply of turnips in the cellar and the turnips sprout well, as they often do, especially if the cellar is dark and warm. They (the sprouts) should be plunged in hot water a moment and then in cold. Let them drain thoroughly; then Head them to the table with the plain salad dres sing or with Mayonnaise sauce. There is scarcely au ache to which children are subject so hard to bear aud so difficult to cure as earache. A remedy which never fails is a pinch of black pepper gathered up in a bit of cotton batting, wet in sweet oil and in serted in the ear - . It will give immed iate relief. The glove powder, so generally used to prevent injury from perspiration, is of value; but common corn starch, rubbed thoroughly over the hands be fore putting on the gloves, will also answer this purpose. Famine Bread.—Uroatiuu bread, rec- omineuded for use in time of famine, is prepared by making a mixture of corn, maize aud beeoliwood flour, tjie latter, being soaked in water. Btains.—Some kinds of stains may be removed from silk by the application of essence of lemon, one part; spirits of turpentine, live parts. Mix and apply to the spot by means of a linen rag. Soles ok Shoes.—Copal varnish ap - plied to the soles of shoes, aud repeated as it dries until the pores are filled and the surface shines like polished mahog any, will make the soles waterproof and last as long as the uppers. Soaf your dirtiest clothes and soak them in worm water over night. Use hard soap to wash your clothes, aud soft to wash your floors. Soft soap is so slippery that it wastes a good deal in washing clothes. A little salt sprinkled in starch while it is boiling tends to prevent it from sticking; it is likewise good to stir it-with a clean-spermaceti candle. A few potatoes sliced, and boiling water poured over them, make an ex cellent preparation for cleansing and stifleniug old rnsty black silks. Green tea is also good for this purpose. To remove coldsores, rub the first finger behind the ears close to the part which is joined to the head, and then rub the sore. The secretion removes the sore in a short time if applied every twenty minutes. Remedy for Chilrlains.—Take a piece of lime the size of your double fist; put it m warm water aud soak the feet in il as warm as it can be boruc for half an hour. F* R a scald ot burn, apply immediate ly pulverised charcoal and oil. Lamp oil will do, but linseed is better. Tlie effect is miraculous. For chapped lips, mix two tablespoon fuls of clarified honey, with a few drops of lavender water.or another perfume,y and anoint the lips frequently. To remove warts, get a little bullock g»H, and keep it in a Imttle, rub a little on the warts two or three times a day, and in a short time they will dissappear. Toothache may be speedily ended by the application of a small bit of cotton saturated with ammonia to the defect ive tooth. It is the small leaks that impoverish a household. It is tlie small economies that lead to aiflueuce. Some years ago a very lovely, but willful, Kentucky girl went to her fath er, a celebrated lawyer, and said: “Father, I want to marry Her loving salutation: “I thought, Miss S., that you hated that fliity minx.

If any one has represented that we are in any way interested in any bogus bitters or stuff with the word “Hops” in their name, cheating honest folks, or that we will pay any of their bills or debts, they are frauds and swindlers and the victims should punish them.

It will cure entirely the worst form of falling of the uterus, Leucorrhcea, Irregular and painful Menstruation, all Ovarian Troubles, Infiammation and Ulceration, Floodings, all Displacements and the con sequent spinal weakness, and is especially adapted to the Chi vnge of Life.” It pet meates every portion of the system, and gives new life and vigor. It removes faintness, flatulency, destroys .'11 craving for stimulants, and relieves weak ness of the ttomach. It cures Bloating, Headaches Nervous Prostimlor., uecoral Debility, Sleeplessness, Depression and Indigi sti in. That feeling of bearing down, eausing pain, weight and backache, is always permanently cured by its use. It will at all times, and under all circumstances, net in harmony with the law that governs the female system. It costs only $1. per bottle or six for $5., and is sold by druggists. Any advice required as to special cases, and the names ot many who have been restored to perfect health by the use of the Vege’able Compound, can be obtained by addressing Mrs. P., with stamp for reply, at her home in Lynn, Mass. For Kidney Complaint of either sex this compound Is unsurpassed as abundant testimonials show. “Mi's. Pinkham's Liver I’ills,” says one writer, “are the test in the tcorld tor the cure of Constipation, Biliousness and Torpidity of the liver. He: Blood Purifier works —onders in its special line and bids fair to equal the Compound in its popularity. AU must respect her as an Angei of Mercy whose sole ambition Is to dogood to others.
