Pbepabe pob Dbouohts.—The dimi nution m milk superinduced by Bummer di oughts is one of the farmer’s draw backs. The check in the flow of milk -a sometimes felt throughout the entire season, even if favorable weather shall afterwards ensue, for when cows i nee fall off in their milk, it is hard work to bring them up again at this advanced stage of their yearly milk-giving period. Such a loss may be avoided by taking the precaution of sowing a small field j of com adjoining the pasture, or in ‘ some place where it will he convenient to feed. If sown at the usual time of planting corn, it will be large enough to use by the middle of July. Another piece may be sown later, for feeding in August. This will e found cheap and good for milk cows, on account of its t xtraor linary succulence. Sorghum and millet are also good, but the corn for soiling crop is better. On most soils it flourishes during a drouth, when everything else suffers. The cattle can be fed in the pasture, lane, or yard, at regular hours. An acre or two will often help out wonderfully in this way, and that which is not needed for feed ing curing the Summer, can be cut and cured for Winter use. Profitable Ase of Sheep.—There are lew animals kept on a larm that, when they are in their prime, pay as well as sheep, end there are few if any others upon which old age has so dam aging an effect. As the sheep is much shoiter lived than any other of our do mestic animals, it is not strange that many of our farmers attempt to keep them too long. At ten years of age the horse is just in his prme, and the cow is good as ever, with the prospect of remaining so several years. But the sheep at icu years is very old, that be ing about the natural limit to its life. Alter reaching this age changes ot weather or any little carelessness in handling is quite liable to injure them, while with tne younger arirnal it would not be noticed, O d sheep are much more liable to attacks from disease, and when once diseased arc mm h harder to manage. Bbetp should be disposed ct when they are six years old,as after that age they cease to be profitable. Top dbessino, unless with very flue manure, is ot doubtful advantage with the clover plant. The clover is easily smothered by anything covering its leaves. It n ay, however, pay, it the clover is to be turned under early tor a com or potato crop this season. The best time to manure is before the seed is sown. A very light top dressing tUen will secure a heavy grow th. As the seed gram is the first resource of the plant germ for food, it is impor tant that the seed be well graded and only the heaviest sown. Bess seed will be needed, lor the plants will be stron ger and tiller more. In fact, the lighter grains may be saved lor feed, and t le crop will be quite as laige as if they were sown. Accobdikg to French authority the production of beet root sugar in Europe this year amounts to 1,020,000 tons, an increase of 187.500 tons over last year. Germany is suit the greatest producer, heading the list with 675,000 tons; Aus trian Hungarv ranks next, with 450,OGo tons; France third, witli 410.000 tons; Polish Russia fourth, with 275,0U0 tons. An experienced farmer says that oats should be soaked snfiicicntly to swell before feeding them to slock. When soaked the husk is partly torn aw ay .and facility of digestion increased. Poultry will cureiully pick out the soaked grains from the dry when allowed upreleieiice in the matter. As boon as a lamb gets large enough, it should be encouraged to eat food tor itself. For this purpose a low trough should be placed where the lambs can get to it, and eat without disturbance. They will soon eat enough to assist very unit -rally iu their growth. Cbeam a la Vebsaili.es.—One quart of milk, half a cupful of sugar, half a teaspoonful of salt, seveu eggs, two ta- blespoonfuls of water. Put the sugar in a small fryiug-pau and stir nntil a very light brown. Add the water, stir a moment longer and mix with the milk. Beat the eggs and salt with a spoon. Add this mixture and vanilla to the milk. Batter a two-quart charlotte russe mold lightly and put the enstard in it. Put the mold into a basiu of warm (not hot) water and bake slowly until the custard is firm in the centre. It should take forty minutes, but if the oven is quite hot it will be done in thir ty minutes. Test by putting a knife down into the centre, for if the custard is not milky, it is done Set away in a cold place until serving time. It must be ice cold when eaten. Turn out on a flat dish and pour caramel sauce over it. HUMOROUS. Pulverizing the Soil.—One of the most essential features m agriculture is the pertect condition of the bed lor the reception of seed. No matter how we may fertilize, or how well we may man age in our system of rotation of crops, the line pulverization of the soil is the paramount ot ji ct that should lie enter tained by all good farmers. But some how or other, farmers associate excel lent preparation with hard labor and extra work, which, no doubt, ia,true, it the plow, cultivator and harrow are to successively follow each other iu order to perform oue object. We have made wonderful progress in our methods of agriculture, but the old-fashioned plow and harrow jointly hang on the neck of the farmer tike an incubus entirely be yond bis removal, improvement in the plow is of more vital consequence at the present time than the advance ment oi stock, and although wo have plows of modern design, lighter dratt, and stronger make, yet we still associ ate it with the burrow mid cultivator, thus making three eflorts to pulverize the soil where we should make only oue. Manx so-called cases of pear blight on quince stock are not blight at all.but are simply the killing of the quince roots trom being planted too shallow. The quince root is very tender, and in localities where winters a re severe should always be heavily mulched. As tne quince likes cool, moist soil, the mulch may be leit on during the following summer. Cheese Cake —Make a quart of sweet milk blood warm, pour it into an earthen or porcelain pan, and add to it two tea- spoontuls of liquid rennet, stirring only to diffuse it. Iu about au hour break up the curd, pour off the whey, and spread the curd ou the buck of a hair sieve till it is quite free from liquid. Cream a couple of ounces of powdered sugar and au ounce and a half of butter, then add the yolks of two eggs, a glass of sherry or Madeira wine and the quar ter of a nutmeg grated. Have ready au ounce of Zunte currants, well washed, v picked and dried. Let all these be now mixed with the curd. Line your pans or tin plans witn puli' paste, till them with tne mixture, sprinkle a lew cur rants on top ot each each, and bake in a moderate oven for halt an hour. A little taste and ingenuity in the arrungemei t of simple things often sup- plus the place ot money; for instance, Uie children of a poor mother dressed with such neatness and taste that ;t was difficult to think how little the mate rials of their clothing cost. The collars attracted particular attention, because children require so many, if they wear them at alt. These were made in the foim of deep ruffles, with a narrow stunning upper raffle; the material of which they were ni.tde was the opeu- work cotton goods which can be pur chased at from 12J to 18 cents a yard, and a yaret would make at least six of tlieruttlis. The edges weie t'immcd with very narrow luce, but the effect was so good that the example seems worthy of following. Pork and Vegetable Pie.—Peel and slice thin six good sized potatoes and one onion, one-half pound sweet salt pork cut in tlun slices, and fry brown; one pound of beet or veal cut thin and also tried rare in pork drippings. Make a good crust as for biscuit, not too rich, line your pan around the sides only, hue the bottom with the pork then a layer of meat, potatoes and onions, sea son with pepper and salt to taste and cover with a thin layer of crust; repeat until the vegetables and meat are used up, tneu pour in sufficieut hot water to cover, finish with a crust. Bake oue hour in a moderate oven. A dish of value to a convalescent is made by soaking all night—alter tint washing it—oue heaping tablespoonful of tapioca in a little sweet milk, say one euptul; in the morning heat this, grad ually adding milk until yon have a pint iu all; beat the yolks of two eggs very light, stir in, and let come to a ooil; if the tapioca is not perfectly soft, so that it can bo crushed like jelly with a spoon, it is best to let it boil for two or three minutes; sweeten and flavor to suit the taste of the one for whom it is intended. Wneu it is done and has cooled so that it no longer steams, add the wliites ot two eggs, which you have beaten to a stiff troth; stir them in thoroughly; then put all in glasses. A foreign exchange gives the follow ing receipt for exterminating rats; It consists of a mixture of two parts of well bruised common squills and three parts of finely-chopped bacon made into a stiff mass, with us much meal as may tie required, and then baked into small cakes; these are put elowu for the rats to eat, and are saul to effect their com plete extirpadon. To make a nice hanging garden take a white sponge of large size and sow it full of rice, oats or wheat. Then place it for a week or ten days in a shallow dish, as the sponge absorbs the mois ture the seed will begin to sprout. When this has fairly taken place, the sponge may be suspended by means of a cord from a hook at the top of a win dow where a little sun will enter. It eanbektplwet by merely immersing it in a bowl of water. A stupid-looking tramp knocked at one of the finest residences in Austin, and was received by the lady of the house. “What do yen want?” “Rlease’m give me a dime to bny a glass of bread; ’souse me, I mean a loaf of beer.” “I haven’t got any money.” “Haven’t got no money ? Then, mad am, 1 would suggest that you move into a cheaper hoose, you are evidently Jiv ing beyond your means. Economy is wealth. Economize in the matter of clothes and house rent Cut down your expenses, and then, perhaps, some day you will have a dime to spare—a dime, madam, that may be the means of pre venting a hungry and thirsty fellow- mortal from committing suicide; or it may be a quarter—a coin of the value of twenty-five cents—that will upholster the dark clouds on the horizeu of his despairing soul with a silver-plated lin ing, and fill his stomach with book beer. Good day, fair lady. ” The Little Model itepublle. Valpakasio, Chili.—Seuor Ricardo Stuven, a leading commission merchant of this city, after having exhausted all other remedies has been completely cured of rheumatism by the use of St. Jacob's Oil, the great pain-bannher. He makes this public. “I give you fair warning,” said the first prisoner out. “that I shall have nothing to do with any proceedings yon proceed with.” “Josephus Smith, I thank you,” said the court. “Some men would have waited nntil after the proceedings were over before saying a word to pnt me on my guard. Don’t you want tills trial to go on ?” “It’s nothing to me whether it does or not” “Can't you work up an interest in it ?” “Not a bit?” “It. will be all the same to you wheth er I send you up or let you go, eh ?” “All the same, sir.” “Well, I guess you’d better go up for thirty days. Yon were dead drunk and lying in an alley—you are out of money — the weather is unsettled—you want washing up, and it will be a beneficial change for you. Don’t you think so ?” “I refuse to say.” “Well, I shall send you up all the same. Fall back.” "‘t*"Skill and patience succeed where force fails.The quiet skill and patient research which brought forth Kidney-Wort illustrates the truth of the fable.

I saw so much said about the merits of Hop Bitters, and my wife who was always doctoriug.aiid never well, teased me so ur gently to get her some, 1 concluded to be humbugged again; and I am glad I did,for In less than two months’ use of the Bitters, my wife was cured, and she has remained so for eighteen months since. 1 like such humbugging.—U.

This tree is foune to Go well in Eure pe and its wood is valuable. The acorns were gathered in Missouri at an average cost ol $1 per bushel.The s me party has also shipped 181) bushels of pignuts tor similar purposes. Our results have thus far given quite conclusive evidence iu favor of the ter minal portion of the potato tuber, so far as regards certainty of growth, early sprouting, healthy vegetation and vigor. Some of the enthusiastic declare that by the ensilage system at least fifty per cent, is added to the value of the land. Farmers who do not recognize poul try as taim stock, but took upon it as an insignificant side issue, are not wise in their generation. Tub Japanese orange grows in Cali fornia fitu-en inches in ciicnmterence. Cloves hay is good for hogs, and the hogs like it. It is said that a clove dropped into ink will preseive it from molding, and that any essential oil will answer the same purpose. Russia leather, which is perfumed with the tar of lurch, rarely becomes moidy. A few diops of any essential oil will preserve leather from mold. Mustard should be mixed with water that has been boiled and allowed to cool. Hot water destroys its essential qualities and raw cold water might, cause it to ferment. Put the mustard iu a cup with a small pinch of salt ami mix with it very gradually sufficient boiling water to make it drop from the spoon without becoming watery.” Lamp chimneys can be washed easily by holding tnem over the nose of the tea-kettle when the kettle is boiling luriously.

At this time by ac cident a friend, who had similar symptoms to mine informed me of the great improvement In his health by taking Hunt s Remedy, and persuaded me to try it. I immediately commenced taking it, and from the first bottle began to improve, and its continued use affords very encouraging results.

By the earnest solicitation of a friend I commenced Hunt's Remedy, about three weeks ago, and its in stantaneous benefits are wonderful, for I have had no pains in my back since taking three doses; and am relieved from the pains, aches and exhaustive weakness, the painful symptoms that usually ac company disease of the kidneys.

One best realizes the immensity of the em igration into i he West and Northwest,when he views it from Chicago, w hich may be said to be the gate city through which the human t de of travel pours. Standing in one of the great depots of the Garden City, notably in thatofT.iE Great Rock Island Route, and viewing the crowded irains departing for Kansas City, Leavenworth, Atchineon, Council Blufis, Minneapolis and St. Paul, the thought pie- dotninates that the West must be. and is filling up so rapidly as to preclude the dca ot virgin lands being obtained in the near luture. The Rock Island sends out six through trains daily, all of which are large ly filled by people who are intent upon founding new homos.

Uricket. At Kennington Oval, London, on the SftLof May, the Surrey Eleven, in their .natch against Hamitshire, made what is stated to be the largest score ever ob tained by one English county against another. They commenced this extra ordinary Innings at twenty minutes to 5 on Thursday afternoon, and were not till out until half-past 6 on Friday even ing, the exact time occupied in making their total being eight hours—an aver age of 81 runs an hour. On Thursday 137 runs were scored for 4 wickets, while on Friday the remaining6 wickets added 513 runs, making a total of 050. The Surrey total, in addition to being the highest ever made in a county match, is also the highest ever made in a con test of any importance in England.

Compressed Air as a Motor.—Is connection with new motors for street railway purposes an interesting report comes from London of a successful trial of a train oar worked by compressed air upon the system of Mr Mekarski, of Paris. The test was made ou the tracks of tho London Hlreets Tramway Com pany, which extend a distance of two miles. In appearance the car is describ ed as differing very slightly from the ordinary street car. With the exception of two small jar-shaped vessels on the front platform there is nothing in the way of machinery visiole. By the means of pomps the sir is passed into reser voirs, from which the tanks under the car are charged to the necessary pres sure. It is claimed that nnder favotable conditions the car can run a distance of ten miles without recharging. Tne ex periments were made with forty persons on board, and there was but one opinion as to the smoothness and ease of work ing and the thorough control over tho regulation of speed as well as over the starts and stoppages. Our Progress. As stages are quickly abandoned with the conipli tiun of railroads, so the huge, dras tic, cathartic pills, composed of crude and bulky medicines, are quickly abandoned with the introduction of Dr. Pierce’s “Pleasant Purgative Pellets,” which are sugar-coated, and little larger than mustard seeds, but composed of highly concentrated vegetable extracts. By druggists. Cure for the Bite of a. Mad Dog.— Elecampane is a plant well known to most persons and is to be found in many of our gardens. Immediately af ter being bitten, take one and a half onnees of the root of the plant, the green root is perhaps preferable,but the dried will answer aud may be found in onr drug stores. Slice or bruise, put into a pint of fresh milk, boil down to half a pint, strain, and when cold drink it, fasting at least six hours afterwards; the next morning repeat the dose, using two ounoes of root; on the third morn ing take another dose prepared as the last and this will be sufficient. It is re commended that after each dose nothing be eaten for at least six hours. CoiiHumiition Cure. Dr. R. V. Pierce: Dear 5’ir—Death was hourly expected by myself and friends. My physicians pronounced my disease con sumption, and said I must die. I began taking your “Discovery" and “Pellets." I have used nine bottles and am wonderfully relieved. I am now able to ride out. ELIZABETH THORNTON, Montongo, Ark. In printing alizarine red by means of acetate of alumina the metals of the rulers are attacked by the acid. The acetic acid may be lie avoided by a pro cess suggested by Stork and Lanbe who find that a nentral mixture of alizarine, acetate ol lime, and aluminum sulpho- cyanide develops the red very well on steaming and fixes it very completely. The anthors claim for their process that no iron gets Into the color, that the color can only be developed on steam ing, and, therefore, foims more slowly and is better fixed, and that the print is clearer aud the process cheaper, as no acetic acid is used, and* the shade is one quarter more intense.

The nature of the bite of the leech has been examined by M. Carlet. He detached the animal from the shaved skin of a rabMt at different stages. Sup pose a scarifier, with three-toothed and equidistant blades withdra wn from one another while they press into the skin, and operating several times successively in the same place, this gives a pretty exact idea of the mechanism. Kai.amazxi, Miou., Feb. 2d, 1880. I know Hop‘Bitters will bear recom mendation honestly. Ad who use them confer upon them the highest encomiums, and give them credit for making cures— all the proprietor* claim for them. I have kept them since they were first < ff .red to the public.
