agriculture.
Houno and the frequent stirring of
the suriaoe of the soil are good substi
tutes for rain. Those parts of the gar
den that are most frequently cultivated
show the best results. It is probable
that corn, watermelons, tomatoes. Lira a
beans, and cabbage, and possibly other
planttt, il well started in good deep soil
may go through a two-months drought
without very serious damage. A deep,
well-manured soil suffers much less than
a shallow soil. Snbsoihng and manure
are, to a certain extent, substitutes for
rain. Moisture comes from below,
Underdraming is also a safeguard against
drought. The court e of tne drains in
ihe garden can easily be marked in a
dry season by the ranker growth of
vegetation above them. Irrigation in
many parts of the North will pay. The
soil, U well prepared, could use to good
advantage twice the quantity of water it
receives from rains during the dry
months oi summer.
1 wish to say to the correspondent
who asks about liquid manure for his
lawn that he has just what he wants for
a small lawn in mine. The effect is
speedy and never-failing. lu a week or
ten days alter the application the grass
will begin to t arken and increase its
growth and thicken on the ground, the
growth continuing five to six weeks
where a moderate quantity—say at the
rate of a gallon to seventy sqm re feet—
is given. If a heavier application is
made the growth will be increased and
its dm ation extended. Where there is
a fair coat of glass the light application
will suffice, I apply the urine (with a
watering pot) in a diluted foim, one
gallon of urine to two gadons of water,
tollowed by an equal or greater quanti
ty of water to wasu it into the soil. Hy
giving a tail sprinkling, rich verdure
cau be maiuiained till winter, witli an
early good start in the spring. There
is no more «. ffactive manure than urine,
whether used fiesh or alter fermenta
tion. •
A correspondent says: Fresh,clean
hog’s lard rubbed three or lour times
on any kind ol warts on horses or cattle
will remove them on three or tour ap
plications. I have removed the warts
time after time, and have never been
able to had the wait for the fourth ap
plication. li I should send the Latin
name for lard and tell men to pay fifty
cents to the druggist for about iwo cents
wort i of good lard the remedy would
be often used.
The first and important consideration
in selecting a spot for the gsrden is the
situation. The most suitable is a very
gentle inclination toward the east or
southeast, that it may have all the ad
vantages oi the morning sun. The next
preleiaole exposure is south or south-
weit. If sheltered from the north or
northwest so much the better. Always
avoid, it possible, the neighborhood ol
large spreading trees, as their roots will
exhaust the soil and their shade injures
the crops.
The best land for corn is sod ground
that has been turned up in the early
fall. Either harrow or work it up
witu a cultivator several times iu the
spring before planting, and the birds
will each time destroy multitudes of
larvae Harrow in the manure or
woik it in with the cultivator, if a fer
tilizer Is used sow it bountifully broad
cast. Be sure the ground is clean and
well tilled before the seed is put in.
Keep the surlace thorougldy stirred
once a we k from the time it can be
worked until the tassels appear. Har
row just as it makes its appearance
through the soil with a tine short tooth
iioirow that breaks the ground in the
hill or drill.
All kinds of fowls are natives of
warm or semi-tropical climates. How
ever long they have been domesticated,
they retain their liking for warm weath
er, or at least warm quarters in cold
weather. In the winter season they
will do better iu close houses, even with
little ventilation, rather than exposed to
cold weather. When a young chick
will rest under its mother’s wing in a
summer's night at a temperature of 100
or more, there is no danger ol smoth
ering an old fowl in winter in a tight
house.
Many farmers are greatly troubled
with a growth of sorrel upon their lands
which is an indication ol neglect and
exhausted fertility. The feed, however,
appeals u t on land in good tilth in sea
sons when extreme drought prevails or
upon silicious dry ridges. The best
way to extermiuate^he pest is to sow
bone dust mixed with ashes and plas
ter. One barrel of raw bone dust with
two of ashes and half a barrel of plaster
will seive to drive out the sorrel on a
quarter of an acre of ground if applied
after deep plowing.
Chaecoal is highly recommended as
a preventative of disease in sheip, and
ip an English pamphlet the following
recipe for its use appears: -The charcoal
should be given with the food, except
in the urgent cases, when it may be
mixed with water or thin gruel, and
given as a drench. The dose is 1 pint
to every 25 head of sheep or lambs.
One-quarter pint per head to full grown
cattle, horses or pigs; half the quanti
ty for young cattle, and two teaspoon-
luis to one dessertspoonful for young
calves.
Fatting horses is well understood by
jockeys, and may well be studied by-
farmers who have horses to sell. A
horse well fed and kepi steady to woik
will gain slowly and his flt-sh will he
come solid and enduring. This is the
best for the buyer, aud has the advan
tage for the seller that the hoiae earns
his keeping while being put into condi
tion. The jockey metnod is to feed oil-
meal, exercise little or not at all, and
make a glossy coat, which will soon be
come rough aud staring when the horse
is pat at hard work.
DOMESTIC.
A successful onion grower attributes
his large crops to good cultivation in
keeping down weeds. In order to avoid
the “hand and knee” tedious work, the
crops are cultivated every Monday,
whether weeds are present or not . The
consequence of such careful attention
was that the crop came into market
very esrly—two weeks ahead—and the
size of the onions was also materially
increased.
An Ontario fruit grower advises the
syringing of plum trees with a solution
of Pans green as soon as the trees come
into bloom, as a remedy for tiie curcu-
lio. He recommends three applications
one teaspoonfui of the mineral to a pail
of water.
The ‘'Why” in Vegetable Cookery.
Why should plenty of fast boiling
water be used in boiling vegetables,
potatoes excepted ? Because the greater
the body of boiling water the greater
the heat If only a little water be used,
the whole affair soon cools, and the
vegetables become tough, so much
so that no length of time in boiling
them will render them otherwise.
Broccoli sprouts in April, if properly
cooked by bpiling them for eight min
utes in boiling water, will be tender as
marrow; but if.not properly done, hours
will not cook them.
Why should onions be always cut in
round and very thin rings ? Because the
fibre is thus cut across,, and in so cut
ting them, whether for frying or for
maxing sauce, they are rendered very
tender when cooked. With turnips and
carrots it is just the same; neither of
the three should be split or cut m any
o her way.
Why should parsley never be boiled
with soda—only boiling water and salt ?
Because parsley, having no oil in it,
would be spoiled with soda and all fla
vor would be extracted. All parsley
should be picked free from the stem,
be put into plenty of boiling water with
sale and in summer be boiled only one
minute, and in winter two minutes, and
be strained and chopped on the bacK of
a plate. If only a little water is used in
boiling it, the water becomes brown,
and the parsley tough and ill flavored.
Why should vinegar for pickling
with, never be boiled ? Because boiling
takes all the strength Irom it. What
ever vegetables are to be pickled should
first be made soft with boiling water
strong with salt and then be well drained
and the vinegar poured over.
Why should two ounces of salt and a
bit of washing soda always be put in
the water to boil greens in ? Because
the salt crisps the greens and flavors
them, and the soda extracts the oil
which is greatly injurious to digestion.
An Excellent Whitewash.—The
prudent housewife who regards the
cleanliness and neatness of the home
surroundings as one of the essentials to
health and happiness, will appreciate
the recipe appended. The mixture is
used by the U. 8. Light House depart
ment, aud is said to bo of very superior
quality, being clear and lasting. Take
half a bushel of quicklime, slack with
boning water, keeping it covered during
the process, strain it and add a peck of
salt dissolved iu warm water, three
pounds of rice boiled to a tbm paste;
hall a pound of powdered Spanish whit
ing, and a pound of clean glue, dissolved
in warm water; mix these well together,
and let the mixture stand for several
days. Keep the wash thus prepared in
a kettle or portable furnace, aud when
used put it on as hot as possible with
eiifier a painter’s or whitewash brush.
Lemons are really valuable agents as
blood purifiers. At this time of the
year young people should be encouraged
to eat them with sugar. They are a
good deal more palatable thau drugs,
anyway, and serve as useful a purpose.
Lemon pie is not only wholesome, but
exceedingly good, and a pudding but
little known here—lemon pudding—will
amply reward any housekeeper who
decides to try it. (Jnoii fine half a pound
of the best suet, aud mix it well with
half a pound of flour: add the grated
rind ol two lemons, the juice of four
and the beaten yolks of six eggs; mix
the ingredients well together (with a
pinch of salt, of course), moisteu with
milk it necessary aud pour into a mould
or well-buttered basin; to in a cloth,
and having a pot ready with boiling
water let the pudding boil steadily for
two hours aud a half, keeping the lid
of the pot a little open. Serve with
sweet or wine sauce, and it will be found
excellent.
The flavor of coffee may be greatly
improved and its delicate aroma in
creased by aildiug a little bi-oarbonate
of soda to the water with which it is
made. This is the reason why the coffee
obtained at Vichy, Carlsruhe and other
German watering places is of such
superior excellence, the water in these
localities containing a certain percen
tage of soda. In England many persons
Habitually use carbonate of soda in
making tea, a pinch to a pint of water
being the regulated quantity.
Bibs Cut Short —The long hone end
of a rib joint is usually supposed to he
wasteful, because it is usually overdone
wnen the broader part of the rib is
properly roasted. Yet along these
bones, when not dried to leather, is
very delicate meat. It is “naturally
larded,” that is, the fat is distributed
throughout the fibre. For this reasou
some cooks cut off the rib when it comes
from the butcher shorter still aud cook
this flat portion separately, either
“corning” or stewing it, when its delioa-
oy cau be judged.
Linen lunch-cloths one yard square,
with a vine and some odd and mirth-
pnvokiug design in the corners are the
laucy ol the hour. These are very pret
ty to cover the small tables used at
luneb or small tea parties. Have as
much variety in coloriug and iu the
design as possible and yet be in har
mony.
Economical housewives may be re-
muided that the last remuant of a ham
and the last pieces of cheese can be
used if they are grated finely. Grated
cheese is useful in many ways, aud is,
besides, appetizing on bread and butter.
Omelets made with grated ham are very
nice aud are also excellent for sandwich
es, making a capital luncheon for
school-girls.
Stewed Faesnips.—The rough outer
skm of parsnips and ta'sily should be
scraped away and made clean before
slicing, aud neither rinsed or allowed to
lie in water before putting ever the fire.
Slice them lengthways and boil in just
enough water to cook them tender, sea
son with salt and pepper, with half a
cup of sweet cream and a lump of but
ter.

A Democratic joke: “I’ve been thiuk-
ing, father,” said Melancthou Marrow
fat after a long pause, during which he
appeared to be studying the changing
forms of the yule log that glowed by
the fireside, “I've been thinking a good
deal.” “What was th« subject of your
thoughts?” asked the old gentleman,
pleasantly. “Ive been thinking of the
words of the hymn, ‘When shepherds
watched their flocks by night,’and won
dering why they didn’t go to bed and
leave the flocks to take care of them
selves.” “Well, did you arrive at any
satisfactory conclusion?” “Why, yea; I
thought the Republican party must
have been in power in those days and
the shepherds watched their flocks for
fear some office-holder would steal
them.”

From the Electrical Review It ap
pears that the ball of the general As
sembly of the Church of Scotland—a
fine edifice near Edinburgh Castle—
had been provided with a new electric
conductor. Some doubt having been
expressed whether the new was as effi
cient as the old. it ws r resolved to sub
ject the former to a strict test, and ac
cordingly a copper wire was carried up
one side of the spire and attached to a
conductor on the other. When the con
nections were made it was found that
the electrical resistance^ stated.reach-
ed the “very, very aiarming resistance
of 800 ohms. ” The conductor was joined
together by screw couplings, and it is to
the defective condition of these that the
high resistance was due.

A New York correspondent suggests
the idea of charging admission to
churches when a “star” preacher is in

pear iu fashionable churches in New
York, aud as poor people are not wel

sary to resort to an admission fee to
exclude them. A fee of $1 for a reserved

India is endeavoring to manufacture
her own paper in future. Instead of
sending the raw material to England;
then receiving it back as paper, after
paying freight both ways, there is be

The buzzing and humming noise of
certain insects is not vocal, but is pro-
dueed by the very rapid flapping of the
wings against the air or the body. By
an ingenious mechanical device it
has been found that the wings of a gnat
flap at the late of 15,000 times in a
second.
