agriculture. Cubing Mbats.—Hams, shoulders and breakfast bacon can be sugar-cured in a tight or open vessel. The open vessel Is best. Pack lie meats closely in the vcscsi ana after preparing the pickle, pour it over the meats, and if the vessel be open, put a weight on the meat to hold it under the pickle. If the vessel Is tight, turn it half over every third day for twenty days. The vessel must be kept full of pickle. The ruckle is made as follows: For each 300 pounds of meat placed in a tierce or hogshend, put in 24 pounds of salt, three Quarts of good syrup, 12 ounces of saltpe tre, and fill the barrel with water It cur ing in an open vessel, take the meats out of the vessel and repack as often as you would turn the vessel if tight. This is done to change the position of the pieces, that the pickle may reach every part. It is best to let the meats remain in the pick, le until taken out to smoke. The tem perature should bo kept below fifty de grees whilte the pickle remains on the meats. Pickled pork (mess or clear potk) is made by sprinkling rock salt at the bot tom of the barrel, aud packing the pieces closely, placing them on edge, sprinkling salt between the layers, using 3U pounds of salt to 190 pounds of meat. A brine of full strength should then be made and the barrel filled. !5ee that the barrel is kept full of pickle, or if the vessel is an open one, that the pickle covers the meats, If the pickle should begin to ferment at any time more rock salt should be added-When meats cured in this manner arc to be smoked, put them in a vessel of cold wa ter to soak for six or ten hours to remove the surplus salt; then wash in rain water, rubbing well with scrub-biusb or cloth, then hang for 24 hours before suppiping smoke. Swjet pickled meat should net be soaked in water before smoking, but should Le washed in rain water the same as in dry salt-cured meats. The meat should be bung.for. smoking,as high above the fire as possible. The meat should be smoked from ten days to two weeks. Sugar-cured meats should be scrubbed or placed in a daik room before the fly ap pears in the early spring. A Kentucky method of curing hama and bacon is furnished by a gentleman from that State, who knows it to be good and absolutely proof against skippers. Leave the meat in a strong brine for seven or eight weeks, then wash it in luke warm water, aid dry. When dry, roll it in a mixture ol equal parts of pepper and salt petre, rubbing it thoroughly with the hand. Hang m the smoke house under a slow fire, only partially smoking it In the spring, before the flies come, paint the meat with New Orleans molasses, then smoke thoroughly. Another method: The following meth od of curing hams is recommended: Rub the flesh side of the hams with fine r .sit, using no more than will adhere to it. Let them remain 4b hours, then put them into _a cask, sink down, and cover with a pick le made by dissolving 15 pounas of salt and two and one half ounces cruds East India saltpetre in 10 gallons of water, and adding three quarts of molosses. Keep them weighted down. They will cure ready tor smoking in 40 to 50 days. Still another: A well recommended pickle for curing hams is made of one and one halt pounas of salt, one half pound of sugar, one-half ounce of potash. Boil to gether till the scum has risen to the top,and then skim. After cooling, pour it over the meat and leave the latter in the solution . four or five weeks. DOMESTIC. Tax tempering of the cream is one of the most important operations in butter-mak ing. This is especially true in cold weath er. The different parts of cream are affec ted differently by beat. A can of cream may be placed m a kettle of bot water and be heated till the thermometer indicates 62 to 65 cegrtes without having heated the butter globules in the cream at all This will not ordinarily be the case, it is true, but it is liable to be,and it is approx imately so in all cases where the heating is rapid. r Jream should be kept warm for several heurs before churning, that it may become warmed through. Or, if it is ne cestary to temper it hastily, it should be raised considerably above the churning ten pt ralure and suffered to fall back, which it will do in a short time. Economy m feeding should be one of the first principles. When one kind of grain is high and auother low the lower- priced grain should be substituted, so far as possible. Tbeie was never a more fa vorable opportunilg for doing this than at pretent. Corn is worth 85 cents a bushel while potatoes are vortb 20 and 25 cents At the same lime it ia a thoroughly demon strated fact that one bushel of potatoes will make as many pounds of pork as one bushel ot corn—the potatoes to be boiled. 1 his being the case the saving would be 50 per cent., alter allowing Scents per buibel for boiling the potatoes, while the advantages cl cooked food in a sanitary point are very great. If more cooked food and less -bard, dry corn were fed there would be much leas of the so-called chole ra among hogs, . Many a person depiures the inability to own a little gteenheuse, even one which requires but a small amount of heat, so that the many edds and ends around the place might be safely preserved through winter, instead of having them die of frost. At very slight expense this may be accomplished as follows: Dig out s pit 5 or 6 feet deep, with sloping sides; place around ibis on the outside surface an or dinary hot-bed frame covered with glass sash; bank up around the frame with long stable manure, and cover all with old car pet or shutters ol some kind to assist In keeping out the cold, and you will have a cheap and effective greenhouse of bumMe sort. It is ically surprising what tender plants can be safely intrusted in such a place. Soiling Chops.*—it takes five acres of pasture to keep one cow through the Sum mer. But one acre of rye or corn fodder, or oats and peas sown together, or millet, will keep a cow as long as fl v e acres ot pasture will. TLeretore it is a great econ omy to grow soiling crops and feed those instead of pasturing and nave only a small pasture in which the cattle may run for exercise and be fed with green fodder car ried to them. I be pasture crop will be well manured for a crop in its turn. Ji you went to have no trouble with heaves in your horses be sure that they are fed no dusty or dirty hay, which is the prolific source of tnis annoyance, Or dinary clean bay can always be ted witn safety if pronerly cut up, moistened and mixed with ground grain, but to teed the nasty or dirty sorts is very injurious.; Clover, owing to its liability to crumble, often gets dirty, even alter storage and should never be fed withouo being pre viously moistened. Tax growing animal, Intended for beef, requires a little exercise daily to promote muscle and strength ot constitution, when npe, only to much as to be able to walk to market. Chesting daily is equal to seven per c cnt. of the increase. HUMOROUS. What the trained Southern cook knows has been acquired not only here ditarily through a long line of predeces sors, but by experience in utilizing the ample materials that nature has so abun* d'lntly lavished around her. Whether it is the game the young master lias brought home from forest or stream, or the concoction of quaint dishes, for which she draws on the “wegitable gyarden” and smokehouse, she is always readv to give one a meal, the doxology of which is a lament that it could not last longer. Her corn dodgers, break fast waffles, sweet potato pones, hoe cakes and hot rolls are marvels of cul inary art; while “hoppin’ John,” shrimp pie, rice and possum, boned turkey, barbacued pig, and thousands of other articles, become under her deft manipu lation luxuries that once tasted nobody wot^ld turn a back upon, until obliged to do sc by mere inability to eat more. Tour old-time Southern cook is also economical. Nothing is wasted. The materials she uses are generally of a simple and inexpensive kind (unless, of course, special occasion calls for “ex tras”), and her methods of combining are such as to produce the most pleas ing results. Here is her fashion of boiling rice; If possible, get the whole rice, be cause it makes a much more attractive dish than the cracked rice. Wash thor oughly in three waters (cold); put it in al porcelain-lined vessel (one having a lid); cover with cold water about two inches above the rice; boil until the grains swell and begin to soften, then take it off the fire; wash again to remove all glutinous substance; then add salt to taste; return the nee to the vessel and set it on the back of the stove for about half an hour, in order that it may gradually steam; keep covered. Always remove it from the cooking-vessel to the serving-dish with a silver foiji; each grain will then stand alone and be snow white. To Employ Faib Fingeks.—A hand some and durable cover is made of a large square of drab Aida canvas, with a plush square in the centre. The edge of the plush is scalloped and bound with silk or ;,' : n or is buttonholed, as one’s taste may decree. The border is of the cloth and is to be embroidered m many colors. The predominating color should harmonize with the plush used at the centre. The pattern should be chosen with reference to tho effect pro duced by looking at it from a distance, say from across the room. If economy is not considered a narrow band of plush above this border and below it makes it particularly handsome. The edge should be finished with a .tassel-like fringe. The crazy patchwork which is attracting so much attention, and which, like the little girl, is, when good, very good, and when bad, horrid, is used a great deal in the constrnctibn of table covers. A scarf made in this way is much admired. Its centre is of dark olive felt; across the ends bauds of'plush are put on diagonally, and then the cor ners above and below this are tilled in with the crazy patchwork; the pieces ore all small, and of elegant silk, satins and velvets, joined with innumerable fancy stitches in various colored silks; the ends are completed by a fringe of tassels tied in with gilt crescents. An other and more simply elegant square spread is of felt, with the corners alone embroidered, in crewels. A square felt cover was recently exhibited in a fancy store, with a border 15 inches deep, of the crazy patchwork. This was also finished with fringe. English Wax t* Scallop Lobstkbs —One large lobster, a tablespoonful of anchovy sauce, three tablespoonfuls of cream, yolks of two eggs, some bread crumbs, a little cayenne, nntmeg and a lump of butter. Cut a large well boiled lobster in halves with a sharp knife, pound the spawn, pith and coral in a mortar with a lump of butter, then rub it through & colander into a porcelained sauce pan, add the white sanoe or cream, the anchovy and the seasoning, boil five minutes, stirring sonstantly. Cut the meat of the lobster intosmall pieces, and stir it into the saucewith the yolks of the eggs; make itthorooghly hot, fill the shells of thebedy and tail, strew over them some bread crumbs and brown in the oven. Mint Sauce.—Take fresh young mint, strip leaves from stems, wash, drain on a sieve or dry them on a cloth, chop very fine, put in a sauce-tureen, and to three heaped tablespoonfnls of mint add two of pounded sugar; let it remain a few minutes well mixed together, and pour over it gradually six tablespoonfuls of good vinegar. Is is better to make the sauce an hour or two before dinner, so that the vinegar may be impregnated with mint. The addition of three or four tablespooufuls of the liquor from the boiling lamb or the roast is an im provement. By request. bsoiCH cakes are economical so far as eggs are concerned, and. if made with care, will melt m the mouths of children. To one pound of flour allow half a pound of butter and a quarter of a pound of tugar; let the batter stand in a basin near the fire to soften, but not melt; when soft, mb it and the flour together; then knead in the sugar. Roll out in a sheet half an inch thipk; cut out cakes about two inches square; bake until they are a light brown. Put them away in a stone jar, and they will in a day or two gather moisture enough to be soft. Hebe is an excellent rale for making rice pudding without eggs. Wash a coffee-cup!ul of rice in two or three wa ters, then let it soak all night in one qnart of new milk. In the morning add a little salt, a large spoonful ot butter, a little ground cinnamon, and grated nntmeg. Put in the pudding dish, and set in the oven, allowing ample time, say two hoars, for it to cook. Stir it frequently, but without removing from the oven. When it begins to bubble add a quarter of a pound of stoned rai sins, Serve with powdered sugar sprin kled over it when L is put in saucers. Fob butterscotch, take one pound of sugar, three-quarters of a pint of water, and set over a slow fire; when done add one and one-half tablespoonfuls of but ter and lemon juice to flavor. To make lemon cake, one cup of su gar, four eggs, three tablespooufuls of sweet milk, three Ublespoonfuls of bak ing powder and one enp of flour. Thoroughly wetting the hair once or twice a week with a weak solution of salt water will keep it from falling out Fob burns, bind on moistened bak ing soda. It will give prompt and per manent relief.

Home from the fair: “Did you have anything on exhibition at the fair this year ?” asked the farmer’s city friend, “Yes, somewhat,” he slowly answered. “Did you get any premiums^” “N-n-o, not yet,” faintly replied the granger. “Why, what’s the trouble?” sympa- thisugly said the young man. • ‘Wa’al, I’ll tefl you, sir. You see, I had some fine oats at the fair and the jockeys took ’em for horse feed; the old woman had a fancy bed-quilt there, but the rascals used it for a horse-blanket; Sal had some canned fruit there and the judges ate it up for dessert one day, I kicked up a row and the managers said they would give me a diploma; so that’s what I’m waiting for.” Important Proclamation.

Deeply touched: A gentleman on a walking tour through Staffordshire passed the other day the village of Sandom, the seat of the Errl of Harsow- by. Being footsore, he was glad to be picked up by a local gardener who was driving along the road. The gentleman, anxious to make himself agreeable to his driver, chatted with him about re cent events, and at length said: “Well, they’ve caught old Arabi at last and got him safe in prison.” The old man dropped his reins, and, with tears in his eyes, said: “Do you mean to tell me that they’ve taken Lord Harrowby to prison at his time of life?—him snoh a good landlord, too!
