ApPLTTtfG JlANUKK IN THJ FALL — Whether the manure should be applied in the spring or the fall depends 6n the char acter of the soil and the crop.jm is to occupy the land. Manuring in the fall is usually followed by corn or grass; more csnunonly corn, if the laid has been in clover. It is an advantage to spread ma nure at this season, as the frost and expo sure to the air and rains convert it into a fine condition and hasten its decompasi- tion, which is what the farmer wishes. The hauling can be done now without hia- dranoe, as no other farm work aeeds pres sing attention, which brings the bfcsy sea son of spring forward with a heavy por tion of the work finished It is feared by some farmeas that by applying manure in the fall there occurs a loss of ammonia. Theie is no doubt of the formation of am monia, owing to the decomposition that takes place, but ammonia is largely absor bed by water, which carries it'downward, and once it finds its way into the soil the vegetable and mineral acids with which it comes m contact changes the ammonia into salts, which vary according to ihe kind of acids united to it. The salts of ammonia do not remain fixed in character, for, being ever changeable, they are con tinually being broken to pieces and re formed ny acids stronger than those to which it has been joined, and their char acter is regulated by the ingredients con tained in tbs soil. The manure should be spread as soon as hauled, for if left in heaps the rains I each them, and the soil will be richer m some places than mothers. The soil, however, must also be taken Into consideration. It is not the better plan to spread manure in the fall on light, sandy soil tdat is porous^ for the heavy rains and melting snows of winter will carry away a great portion of it and cause waste of the soluble substances. On heavy soils, such as are underlaid with clay, the advantage is to spread in the fall, but it the land is rolling it should first be plowed before spreading, in order to prevent washing. The plowing benefits the land by admit ting the action of the elements to a certain depth below Uie surface, throws up the cutworms to the cold and permits It to be broken to pieces and disintegrated. It should be lei t m the rough state for the reception of the manure, or else be passeo over with the cultivator afterward. With this treatment the only work necessary for a corn crop ’in the spring is to put in the seed as the best portion of the preparation will have been accomplished, as well as thinning out the cutyorms, which is an important matter. Tun winter time is a good one to look after the destruction of the eggs and chry salides of insects. In cities especially, the walls, fences and rough bark of treer afford shelter to them, and they can be easily hunted out. As before noted the bag-worm or drop-worm bus been particu- laily destructive the past season, and es pecially to arborvities and coniferous trees generally. The oyal “oags,” more than an inch m length, and are icadily seen and easily collected and destroyed. On open ing some of these bags with sharp-pointed scissors only some of them will be found with eggs. Those without the eggs pro duce the male moth, which leaves its bag- hke bouse in the spring, The female moth never leaves its house from the time it makes it to the time it dies aud leaves its eggs behind. It is au auomally amongst insects,|and originated the saymg abouu it that “its cradle is its grave.” Barnstable connty, Massachusetts, has 1950 acres under cranberry cultivation, and the crop in 1880 was 89.000 bushels. The Massachusetts Ploughman gives the con ditions most favoranle to success In cran berry culture as: “First, water, plenty of it, and a full command of it, so that the vines cau be covered in a few hours at any season, and also drained as rapidly, to at least one foot below the surlace. Second, a peat bottom of two or more feet in depth with a level surface. Third, a good sand bank within a short distance of the mead ow. With all of these conditions and some knowledge of the business success wlil be reasonably sure; but if either one of them is wanting the time required to prepare the land and set the vines, os a rule, had better be devoted to the produc tion of some other crop. F.JI young cattle feed one of flesh to 8 of hcat-producing substances, and to older animals give one to six. Most of the food of young cattle go to make up bone and muscle, leaving about third olass manure; the food of half-grown animals goes to make flesh mostly, leaving lesond-class manure; the food of mature animals goes to make fat and support life, the excess becoming first-class manure, exclusive of water. Chemically animals coming to maturity wil) eat about onc-flfth oi their own weight per day. Want farmers of Oregon and Washing ton Territories have devoted their atten tion to hop oulfure. This year they raised a fine crop, estimated at 1,080,000 pounds. Many farmert have told at 76 cents a ojund, and others are holding for a higher yrice. This fine crop will bring a great sum to the farmers. It seems what the region is abundantly suited to hop culture, aad a good supply may be expected from that quarter in future. Flouk is & .dly injured by being kept in a room where unwholesome odors are exhaled. For this reason cellars and oth- tr places devoted to fruits should be avoid ed. A fungoid growth will sometimes oc cur in flour that will battle ordinary at tempts at removal. Entire destruction not only of the flour affected, but ef every ves sel containing it, is the only remedy. Kan arts are said to like lard better even than sugar. For this reason, if the red ants are troublesome m kitchen or store rooms set a plate well greased with lard in tne room. It will scon be covered with ttira, and you can dispose of them; put the piate back, and keep oa doing so until they are exterminated. The rows and bushes and trees which have grown at random anc frequently line roadsides and inside fences are rirely eith er useful or ornamental L«t any fairer who has these adjoining any hoed crop calculate what they cost him in a year, and then decide whether he can longer afford such a feature. RvoARDtsa peach tiiaeare—yellows— Prof. Goesaman of the Massachusetts Agricultural College found that poor soil favored Us spread.

Dr. Hturtevant considers the plant of considerable value for green manure. DOMESTIC. It sometimes happens that fruit of pne kind or another ia not aooeptable to the family after it is pnt np. It oomee to the table, bnt no one eats it; it “goes begging,” as the saying is. This was true one year of preserved citron in one family. It seemed as if it would be wasted, but the frugal woman who was at the head of affairs experimented in this way: She too the citron from the syrup, sliced it, spread it on plates and dried it in the oven. It then took the place of expensive imported citron used in cakes, paddings, etc. The syrap she used in mince pie meat, and in the dress ing for sweet pickles. She considered her experiment a complete success as a matter of economy, and also becanse she was not detected by any of her fam ily- A good recipe for marbled cake is hero given: One cup of butter, two cups of sugar, three cups of flour, and four well-beaten eggs, one cap of sweet milk, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder mixed with the flour. Dissolve a heap ing tablespoonful of chocolate with a liule milk, better still with cream. Then dip out a cupful of the cake bat ter, and stir the chocolate in it till it is all thoroughly mixed and brown. Cov er the bottom of the cake tin with the batter, and then in two or three places form little riugs with the chocolate-col ored batter, then pnt in another layer of the light, and so on until ail is used. This cake should be baked in a moder ate oven, and the top and sides also, if you choose, be covered with chocolate icing. Macaroni ad Gratin.—Take half a pound of spaghetti macarroni, four oun ces of cheese, two ounces of butter, three-quaiters of a cupful of Bechamel sauce. Do not mash the macaronni. Throw it, broken into convenient pieces, into boiling water whioh is well salted; stir or shake it frequently. The mo ment it is quite tender pour it into a colander and shake off all the water. When well drained, pour over it nearly all of the sauce ami the grated cheese; turn it iu the saucepan, mixing it well together without breaking the macaroni; put it into a gratin dish; pour first the remainder the sauce over the top, then the remaimler of the cheese, and over this sprinkle a tablespoon! ul of cracker dust and dots of butter. Put ,it into a very hot oven ten minutes, col oring the top. There are people who think they can not oat or digest anything which is made light by the use of soda or baking powder, and there really are those who cannot. For them a recipe is here giv en for waffles which are raised with yeast, and which will be found highly satisfactory: One quart of flour, one quart of sweet milk, five tablespoonfuls or about half a medium-sized cup of yeast, at least one teaspoonfui of salt.

To three quarts of water aud the juice of a dozen large oranges; sweeten to taste with loaf sugar (using also the flavcied sugar) flavor highly with rum, and freeze. Grated pineapple may be addid when it is partly frozen, if liked. Tutti-Frutti.—To one quart of boiled custard (flavored with vauilla) allow a quart of candied fruits, assorted and chopped, and a gill of maraschisno. Freeze the custard, anu when it ia be ginning to set in the freezer, stir in the fruit, maraschino, ami a pint of cream whipped. Mould.
