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.

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,

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.
Mix well, and let it stand all night. In
the morning stir in one tablespoonful

a half of flour, one level teaspoonfui of
•oda and two cl cream of tartar, and the
whites of four eggs—well beaten; bake
in jelly-cake pans. For icing, grate one
oocoanut, beat whites of two eggs, and
add one teaoupful of powdered sugar;

the rinds of three fresh oranges. 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.
Preparing Cdrrants.—To swell the
currants for cakes, after they are picked
and cleaned, pour boiling water over
them and let them stand covered over
with a plate for two minutes, drain away
the water, throw currants on a clotu
to dry them, and do not use until they
are cool
To Glean Gilding.—Gently wipe
with cotton dipped in sweet oil, linen
should never be used, os it deadens
gilding. To prevent flies from soiling
gilding, simply wash it over in the ear
ly summer with water in whioh two or
three onions have been boiled.
To Clean Marble. —Take one pound
of washing soda, one pound of soft soap,
kme pound of whitening; simmer all to

of it in half a pint of thickened gravy.
Or season it iu any way you choose and
moisten it with wine; then stir it over
the lire autij scalding hot. Fill pate
shells, ahd serve as hot as possible.
Beefsteak wrrft Egos.—Cut the steak
into pieces of convenient size, dip them
into beaten eggs, roll in bread crumbs,
ami then broil. Serve with potatoes or
tomato catsup.

“Y'-.a made a little mistake in your
announcement yesterday, sir.”
“Very likely. It is almost impossi
ble not to make a mistake sometimes.
What was it?”
“You said me and Lizzie Pipkins were
bothered, when we are not bothered at
all. We are betrothed, sir. Quite a
difference. ”
And the editor said: “Ah! I presume
yon see the differenoe now more than

' Watch Cleaning.—This is an interest
ing piece of information from a German
magazine: Place a waten, with the case
open but the works in motion, m a vessel
so that the watch will be completely cov
ered with benzine. After three hours it
wiii be found that the watch has been thor
oughly cleaned. The vessel should be
covered with parchment paper, and the
watch before it is removed should be
slightly agitated. Lastly, the watch is
laid m benzine again, but this lime a little
petroleum oil is added in order to lubricate

The World s Age —Geological exami
nation of the delta of the Mississippi now
shows that for a distance of about three
hundred miles there are buried forests of
large trees, one over the other, with inter
spaces of sand. Ten distinct forest g.owths
of this description have been observed,
which it is believed must have succeeded
each other. Of these trees, known as the
bald cypress, some have been found over
twenty-five feet in diameter, and one con
tained 6,700 rings; in some mat* nces, too,
huge trees have grown irom the stamps
of others equally large. From these facts
geologists have assumed the antiquity of
each forest growth at 10,000 years, or
100,000 years for all.
Brahe Efficiency —Among the instru

one exlib ed employed for ascertaining
