K K,!* ? ft -' ir 1 ■ ^ The Texas Cattle Fevee.—Tho treasury cattlo commission, charged with the investigation of epidemic dis eases amomg domesticated animals of the United States, have established the fact that the spleenio or Spanish fever, commonly known as the Texas cattle fever, which is peculiar to the cattle of the South Atlantic Gull States, is pro pagated only in the summer and early autumn, and hardly ever occurs after a heavy Irost. The last case reported to them was on Nov. 30 last The present yearly losses from lung plague in the United States are estimated at from $2,l0J,00U to SS.OOO.OoO, a d the pros pective loss by the same cause at $>0,- U00,0l0. The capital represented by tne present yearly losses, at 5 per cent, would be trom #40,000,000 to $60,000,- 000, ana that represented by prospec tive yearly losses at the same rate, at $1,000,000. It is oelieved that it will cost $2,000,000 to stamp out the dis ease ana prevent this enormous loss. .Beside lec^mmending the leghlaiiou necessary to -jnduci this Work, the commission recommend, us adjuncts to the task, that the government forbid the movement ot live caitle out of any infected btate, Territory or district, ex cept alter a quarantine such as is now imposed on the cattle imported trom in- lected loreigu countries, and that the secretary ot the tteasury be empowered to oruel the instant uestruction of all cattle or other animals which m quaran tine give evidence of dangerous conta gious uisease. As a chnctiur to their conclusions the commission say, very pertinenilv : ‘ Nothing short ol the ab solute unu undeniable extinction oi this disease in ihe United States will reopen the Jjiitiah market to our live cattle and rave us these millions that we are now every j tar prodigally, and we might also say insanejy, ihiowng away.” IIOW EUTTEK iLflV ue fcroiLED.—Good butter may be spoiled in churning. Over-churning nuns the texture and changes the proper waxiness to a disa greeable, sickly great-mess. This is the more easily done in a churn with dash es, w hich pi ess the buiter against the siues oi the churn and squeeze and rub it until it is spoiled. Too long churn ing spoils the quality by oxiuatiou of the butter,and the premature formation ot strong flavored acids in it, the full presence of which we call rancidity, it may be spoiled at too high a teinpua- tuie, by which it is maue soit and oily and ol greasy texture and flavor. No subsequent treatment can remedy this error, it may be spoiled before the ciearn reaches the cLurn by keeping it long, or, what is practically tho same, by keeping it in too warm a place; £0 degrees is about the right temperature if the cream is kept a week; it it is kept at 02 degrees thieeuuysis long enough. White specks are produced in butter by overehuinmg or by having the cream too sour. Either of these faults pro duces curd in the milk, aud the small flakes of this cannot be washed out ot the butter, bo will the use ot salt con taining specks ot lime which unite with the butter aud fi rm insoluble lime soap, Wnite specks are covered up to a large- extent by using good coloring, which is made of oil us the solvent. But this use ol coloring being used Iodise uise a fault and to add an undeserved virtue is wor thy of denunciatiou. DOMESTIC, HUMOROUS. ITot Bath ron Jssixts.- -A German method ior destroying thrips and red spiders is to have a large vessel filled with clean hot water at a temperatuie of 133 degrees. The infested plants are dipped into the water for the space ol four teconds when the insects wnl be killed, aud no damage result to the plants; it is best not to continue the im mersion longer than the time noted. 11 alterwards a tew insects appear that have developed since the operation, it may be repeated. The temperature ol the water should be watched and ne.t allowed to fall below 122 degrees. It is said that even young shoots and flow er buds will not sutler in the least Horn this treatment. 7n transpdanm g nets all the roots which may have Leceune biuised or brtlen in the process if lilting should be cut clean away behind the broken part, ns they then more readily strike out new roots liom the cut ports, In all such cases the cut should be a clean sloping one,aud made in an upward and cmwuid direction. T. Gbeikor, in the Farm and Gar den, says that the easiest and quickest way to destroy the wewls tnat generally start about the time wbeu the potatoes are up so that the rows can be seen plainly, is by a thorough use of Lai- row or drag. He places great empha is upon this, and deems it lar more eflec- live than the cultivator and hoe, at less expense. Op orchard grass tho late Standard Gould says in his treatise on grasses: “The Ustimony that has been collec ted lr< m all parts of the world for two centuries past establishes the place oi this sptcicH among the very best ol for age grasses, and the interests oi our graziers unci carry men would be great ly promoted by us more extended cul tivation . Salted Meats—We do not object to salted meats as an item in any bill of fare; they should, indeed, occupy au important place iu the list of foods. But when, as often happen*, particular ly iu remote and sparsely settled dis tricts, all the animal food to be obtained is salted, it becomes mainly responsible for the great prevalence of scorbutic diseases m such districts. The evil effects that are liable to follow a long- continued use of salted meats ’ay be modified to a great extent by the tree use at the same time of fresh vegetables and acid fruits. The effect of an ove: use of such fruits—as, for example, sa ted pork—seems to be to introduce au ex cess of salt into the system, thus chang ing the natural condition of the blood by an excess of one ef its elements, and producing obstructions in the eliminat ing process; unsightly sores often ap pear, particularly on the face, which is kept dry and cool by exposure to the air, thus closing the pores of the skin by contraction of their orifices; the re sult being that the fluid, unable to pass out through tbe skin, becomes blocked up in tbe pores, causing inflammation at certain points; then ulceration follows in tho form of pimples. These discharge, head up, aud, if nothing is done to pie- vent it, are succeeded by other crops at various intervals. Salted foods are not so digestible as fresh foods, as a rule; but that is a difficulty easily remedied, under the rule of moderation. Tne stomach, like all other organs of tho body, will adapt itself to all reasonable demands, and will, in fact, tolerate a good deal of harsh treatment for a long time, but sooner or later resents abuses. The best plan is to live on mixed diet of vegetable and animal foods, with ire- qui nt cLauges ot variety. It is well to Have a special bill of fare for each day in tun week, to include fruits aud other loods that are iu season. Ribbon Embboedeky. —This work i* very beamiil and easy of execution, tor the flow err. instead of being em broidered in the usual maimer, are made of either tne narrowest satin rib bon or un dl bits of colored satin. Fine flowers, such as forget-me-nots or daisies, either white or yellow, are the simplest to work, as only one stitch is required for each petal. For forget-nit-nots thread au ordinal y worsted needle with the narrowest blue satin ribbon, and knot the end to keep from pulling out of the material when drawing it through. Take one stitch from the point of tho petal to where it joins the stamens; flatten the ribbon iu the middle, aud the slight puckering at either end gives it a more natural appearance. In order to shade the leaves light or dark two shades of blue ribbon may be used, working two of the leaves light and three dark. The stainei s should be worked with yellow silk m knot stitch; the steins and leaves embroidered with crewels iu Kensington stitch. For rose buds a small bit of satiu is doubled, using the folded point tor the tip of the bud; the edges are gathered and sewed to the material. The calyx is embroid ered with green crewel, the light shades silk. If the design is of moss rosebuds they can be very beautifully and per- iectly executed by using arrastne fir the calyx of the buds and the foliage, as it has flic appearance of moss. Ar- rasmo is a sort ol worsted chenille, not ttiiil may tio iirnmiYAxL la. bxmm»4 of the largo worsted stores. For the roses a piece ot satin is doubled and gathereu in the same manner as for the buds, aud a skilful touen will give each petal the exact look of a rose leaf. Tho stuniens are worked knot stitch with embroidery silk. The foliage is to he e mbrontered iu Kensington, with crewels tor the darker shades and silk for the light. Daisies or any flowers having narrow petals may be executed aittr tho directions given for forget-me- nots Hoven, ob Bloat,-The German mode of curing cattle is to pour several buck etfuls of cold water over the backs of tbe animals, and placing a piece of gar lic in their throats. Half a teacupiul of common baking soda, if dissolved in water and given iu the loims of a drench, is said to be equally as effec- tiye. At the last meeting of the New York Dairymen’s Assocntiioii it was stated t»>at tiiere were 1,500,000 cows in that State, the products ot which amounted to $100,000,000 annually at the least.

Housecleanisg Hints--In house- cleaning every closet drawer, aud piece- bag must be ransacked, overlooked aud cleared up. Carpets must be taken up aud sbaki n, beds well beaten, and bed steads washed iu strong brine to destroy all insects, etc. Save the tea-leaves for a few days, Mien steep them in a tin pail or pan for half an hour, strain through a sieve, and use the tea to wash all varnished paint. It requires little rubbing or “elbow polish,” as the tea acts as a strong detergent, cleansing the paint from its impuritiua, and making the varnish shine again. It cleanses window-sashes aud oil-cloths; indeed, any varnished surface is impioved by its rpphcatiou. It washes window- panes i nd mirrors much better than soap aud water, aud is excellent for cleansing black walnut picture and looking-gliss frames. It will not do to wash unvarnished paint with it. Whit ing is unequalled lor cleansing white daint. Take a small quantity on a piece of damp flannel, rub lightly over the surface, aud the effect will be sur prising. Wall-papers are readily cleansed by tying a soft cloth over a bim m rnd sweeping down the walls oaretully, then follow with lightly rub bing with stale bread. A Cheap Filter.—The most impure water may lie r. inb red pure by filtering through charcoal. Take a large flower pot, put a piece of sponge or clean moss over the hole in the bottom, fill three- quarters full of equal parts of clean sand aud charcoal the size of a pea; over this hang a woolen cloth large enough to hung over the sides of the pot. Pour the water into the cloth and it will come ont pure. Good for a Copgh.—An excellent authority in medicine rec'mmends a little common sugar as a remedy for a dry, hacking cough, and gives scientific reasons for it. If troubled at night or ou tirst waking m the morning, have a little cup on a stand close by the bed, an 11 ike a teaspoon of tbe sugar; this will be of benefit when cough syrups fail. _ To Behove Paint.—One pound of soft soap, oue pound of soda, dissolved in one pint of boding water; lay a thick coat (while hot) npou the paint with a brash; leave it for one or two bourn until it begins to soften the paint, then scrape off what yon can and repeat. When all is removed wash thoroughly with clean water. Pressed Veal —Take three pounds of veal chopped flue, two pounds of fresh, lean, raw pork also chopped lino, three eggs,' a piece of butter the size of an egg. peppsr aud salt well; bake two hours. When cold slice it thin. It is like pressed meat, and is very nice. Oxalio acid will sometimes remove stains from brass which nothing else seems to effect.
